PATIENT REVIEWS

I have been seeing Dr. Joe for 28 years. he has always been fantastic. He is a great humanitarian and consistently conducts work in underserved countries who need care. He has a non-profit organization, a comfort dog that can be brought to you or if you prefer two comfort kittens! Stunning décor and great, well trained staff complete the package for what is easily the coolest dental experience!

I still go to these guys even after moving from Belltown to Woodinville (my husband still works downtown), because they’re amazing. (I tried someone else, but it didn’t work for me.) Everyone I deal with is very pleasant and professional. I happened to mention in passing during my own appointment that my husband isn’t fond of mint toothpaste, and when he went back in a few months later they made a point of offering a different flavor. And I love the environment of the office itself – open and bright. You can’t beat the views!

I love their embrace of the latest advances in technology. Neat quick online x-rays with low radiation dosage, and while-u-wait crowns using latest video imaging and on-site electronic crown sculpting. They’re also great with using technology for customer service — text & email reminders, and nice web site. And their office — top floor of the very-cool Medical-Dental building — is the bomb. Nicely decorated, great staff. Love ’em, always have.

Been coming for years (since the early 1990’s) and it’s always a pleasure. All the hygienists are very gentle and kind as is Dr. Zimmer. I love the office space and rooftop gardens and Sumi (cat) has been a great addition. I’ve always had positive experiences with dentists throughout my life and it’s wonderful to have found Dr. Zimmer! “See you in six months!”

Thank you Dr Joseph Zimmer and staff for your amazing service s and professionalism. I don’t know what I would have done without your help today. I suffered throughout this past weekend with a horrific pain, clearly an exposed nerve of some type. Dr Zimmer’s lovely Brittany got me in immediately this afternoon and it turned out that I needed to have a Root Canal. How incredibly blessed I am to have a Dentist like Dr Joseph Zimmer and his staff to be able to provide that service to me rather than having to go to a root canal specialist. I really don’t think I would have been able to endure another 24 hours of that type of pain. If I could give a 10 star review I would !! Now I’m at home resting and feeling so fortunate to Dr Joseph Zimmer and his Staff. Thank you so much for taking such good care of me Dr Zimmer.

Love Dr. Zimmer and his crew. The space is fun…not your run of the mill dental office and they validate parking at Pacific Place! As a mom of two that might be my favorite part – I usually take a few extra minutes after my appointment to grab a coffee at Starbucks and window shop before returning to life as usual. 😉 I also bring my 2 and 5 year olds for their cleanings. I think Dr. Zimmer is very fair and upfront. He gives you  options and will talk budget concerns vs. quality/need in a reasonable way…never feel like I’m being ‘sold’.  Highly recommend.

I have been to Dr. Zimmer’s for cleanings and the staff is always poilte and professional. Yesterday was the first time I was there to get cavities filled, the staff went out of their way to make me feel comfortable, and it was as pain free as it gets when getting cavities filled. I even got to watch a movie through some cool glasses while I was getting my teeth worked on. I won’t even get started on the hot hygenist, you just have to experience for yourself!

Best dentist I’ve ever been to. I have pretty easy teeth, so for people like me who just need a regular teeth cleaning, the environment is relaxing, the people are nice, and the location is really convenient if you work or live downtown. I also have several friends and coworkers who have had major teeth issues go here and they all say great things. I even recommended Dr. Zimmer to a friend after a different dentist botched a filling. Dr. Zimmer was able to redo the work correctly and my friend hasn’t had any pain since.

Joseph Zimmer has been my dentist for over a decade, and is the best dentist I’ve ever had. Not only is he himself highly competent, smart and personable, so are all his staff. His office uses technology very well to schedule, communicate, and maintain patient information. In addition, Zimmer also invests in dentistry technologies that make his practice even more appealing, like the equipment needed to make and install a finished permanent crown in one 2-hour appointment

Dr. Zimmer is great. I cant say enough. I’m a longtime patient and have recommended him to a dozen or more friends who also say he is great. He is meticulous and first rate. Before Dr. Zimmer I went to a dentist who kept recommending procedures that I didn’t need. When I went to Zimmer he said my teeth were fine. I don’t think you could find a better dentist. He comes through when you need him. I cracked a tooth a few years ago. He got me an appointment right away and fixed it perfectly the first time. My wife had an emergency over one weekend. He came in that very day without question and fixed it. He is great. He also does dental work on his vacations and went to Central America last year. One of the hygenists said he also regularly does pro bono work for the homeless. I think its nice that he is in it for more than just the money. 5 stars for Dr. Zimmer. You wont find a better dentist or a more amazing office.

I have been a patient of Dr. Zimmer for years, and have nothing but good things to say about him and his staff (and the kitty!) I had just seen another dentist who said I needed $3,000 worth of preventive work, and I had no insurance at the time. A coworker referred me to Dr. Zimmer, who said that I really only needed a cavity filled. He charged me a negotiated rate and allowed me to pay in installments. Fast forward a decade later, I needed an emergency root canal and he came into the office on a Friday night to do the work. I have a nerve condition in my face, which can make dental work too painful to bear. He’s been very patient with me, woo hoo for sedation dentistry! I highly recommend Dr. Zimmer, and hope he never retire

After a disappointing interaction with my usual dentist, I sought help from Dr. Zimmer’s practice to perform a root canal on a tooth that had become infected and abscessed following a routine filling three weeks ago. Several of my friends had been seen here and had nothing but wonderful things to say. I called Tuesday afternoon around 4 pm and after speaking with a very kind receptionist, I was told to come in at 8 am on Wednesday. After being given the run around by my other dentist’s office for several days, this was wonderful news! It was great to be able to fill out all of my paperwork online before going in. When I arrived, the staff were all very efficient and caring. I had been in terrible pain for about five days by that point and so I really appreciated their concern. I only waited a few minutes before being taken back and having x rays, and from there, Dr. Zimmer came in to introduce himself and begin my treatment very quickly. He was very concerned with my comfort and never got impatient the way some dentists do when I said I needed to take a break or that something was too painful for me. He explained everything very thoroughly, and made a very uncomfortable and painful procedure as pleasant as it could possibly be. They were also able to arrange a payment plan for my treatment, which was a huge help. Also: the surroundings are lovely, the artwork is top notch, and there’s an office dog (Nikita!) who helped distract me from my initial pain and nervousness when I arrived. By far, the absolute best interaction I have ever had at a dental office even though it was the worst dental treatment I’ve ever had to undergo. I will be going back and I will tell others to see them, as well.

Oh so happy to be back in Seattle so I can continue to see Dr Zimmerman and staff. The office in general is the best dentist office I have never been a customer of; and I’ve lived in 4 states. Everyone is personable and professional. Clean, inviting office space is always a plus, the view is always amazing. From cleanings, to fillings to a brand new crown within 2 hours!! Who else makes permanent crowns so well in-house?!

We moved to Seattle from the Eastside last year. A friend of mine recommended Dr Zimmer. My daughter now loves going to the dentist? They are very professional. The front desk is nice and on the ball. Waiting time is always short. The dental hygienists and Doctors are excellent. Plus, the office is so cool it doesn’t feel like a dentist office.  I recommend!

I have a wonderful dental hygienist that does beautiful work in a warm friendly manner. Dr. Zimmer with this years of experience in a wide range of dental practice is a concerned and kind person that delivers his skills in a comforting and honest manner. I never have any reservation in recommending Dr. Zimmer and his staff, my daughter and her family have been going to him for well over twenty years with satisfaction in all the work he has done for them,and continues to do.

I have a lot of dental anxiety. I was essentially a dentist’s nightmare as a child; constantly freaking out in the dentists chair every time they had to polish my teeth. Cavities were the end of the world. Aging helped, but even as an adult it’s hard not to bolt from the room when the drill comes out. Dr Zimmer’s office is the only establishment that has made my dental appointments something I look forward to. Everyone there is friendly and so calm I never have any doubt that things will go well. Dr Zimmer himself is the most competent dentist I have ever visited. He recently did an extraction and implant while I had a mouth infection from traveling, and did the whole thing within 30 minutes and with zero pain. I really recommend this place. It’s also a cool spot- Zimmer has great taste in art 🙂

Easily the coolest and best dentist in town. The hygienists are nice, knowledgeable, thorough and gentle. The facilities are awesome, and Dr Zimmer is great! Smart, caring, consultative… he’s what you’re looking for. For background, I have been seeing Dr Zimmer for years. Services received include cleanings, one filling, night brace fitting, and cosmetic whitening tray creation.

Came to see Dr. Zimmer on a recommendation a couple years ago for an emergency crown, and couldn’t have been happier. Have been going to him and his staff for all of my dental work every since. Their space is beautiful, inviting, and clean. The staff is excellent, and they really make you feel comfortable. Simply put, I would recommend them to anyone.

Doctor Zimmer helped me getting the smile I always dreamt of, but life was keep getting in the way! I am visiting this cabinet for about 2 years now. I had some cavities to treats, cleaning, tooth surgery and Invisalign. Doctor Zimmer and his team, always make me feel welcomed and not pressured while I am there for my treatments. Going to the dentist was always a traumatic experience for me. I get some sensitivity, followed by strong gagging reflex, but I was always given space to calm down and relax. Come to think of, I am loving my visits there and I actually go there by pleasure and not stress. I know I benefit from Dr Zimmer’s years of experience, best materials and treatments for my needs. Front desk is super helpful and always works with me to get the best appointments! The hygienists and everyone else are beyond nice! I will keep going here for everything I will need, because I feel safe and well taken care of. Thank YOU!

Root canal procedures are not fun. This was unexpected and quasi-emergency. They fit me into their schedule that same afternoon and even stayed after hours to complete the task, apologizing for keeping me so long! Great service from Dr Moazami and her assistant. Have gone to Dr Zimmer for my dental work for years and he has very high standards and provides high quality care. Dr Moazami fits right into the team and offered the level of care and exceptional service that we have come to expect.

I always look forward to teeth cleaning at Dr. Zimmer’s office. I’ve seen three different hygienists in the 10 years I’ve been a client and all have been kind, friendly, professional and efficient. I’ve needed little work, but Dr Zimmer has always been attentive and unhurried in our brief visits. This leaves me to focus on the beautiful views and artwork in the office. I highly recommend a visit.

I had a crown fall out last night. I called in the morning, received a call back around 10 a.m., and scheduled an appointment for 12:15. I was in and out in about 20-25 minutes. Fast, professional service, no pain, handled by Dr. Zimmer, my usual dr. who checks teeth following a cleaning. No complaints. Highly recommend for a downtown Seatle dentist.

I’ve been a patient for 20 years and always had great care. I traveled for work and some mtimes had to see dentists in other cities but was always glad to get back to Dr. Zimmer. His hygienists are well trained and great at working with my sensitive teeth. Over the years the front desk, scheduling and billing staff have varied from top notch to horrible, but the horrible ones never lasted very long.

I highly recommend seeing Joseph Zimmer as your dental care provider. The facility is beautiful and clean, making your experience relaxing and enjoyable. The service was efficient and the staff is friendly. My hygenist was thorough and personable, answering any questions I had. Dr. Zimmer took the time to ask if I had any concerns and was very nice! I had a great experience at this office!

I have been to Dr. Zimmers office for hours and hours of work and cleanings have always had an enjoyable time in this office you can listen to music watch a movie and they make sure you are as comfortable as possible. They were very friendly and attentive to my needs and what teeth i thought were giving me problems. I have always had problems with my teeth and have always felt like dentists were judging me when i would come to them with a problem but i did not feel that way here he never maid me feel ashamed to come to the dentists. I just recently moved to california and am not pleased with the dentist i now have so im going to come up and get my teeth worked on at Dr zimmers office. I know good dentists are hard to find i have been to many many dentists and he is worth the money hands down best dentist i have ever been to.

It has been a while since i had my last cleaning and i was a little nervous. After meeting the staff (who was very friendly) i went to the top floor to have my cleaning. The Hygienist was very gentle and nice. The artwork and veiw were amazing. Dr. Zimmer was very nice and trustworth. The receptionist gave me a reminder call for my appointment and already had my insurance information. I left the office with no pain. I will definitly be coming back here!

Dr Zimmer and all of his staff are very knowledgeable and helpful. Dr Zmmer has invented/designed certain items he uses for implants. He explains very thoroughly and clearly. the options v The women who do the cleaning and other work to assist the doctor are always very helpful, happy, and competent. I would recommend him as d several of my friends.

Well color me happy because this dental experience has by far been THE BEST. If you want the best, go here. Seriously. Its been a while since I had my teeth cleaned and every experience in my past has been, well, not pleasant. By why should it be? You’re at the dentist. But from start to finish, my appointment was truly an experience. From the email reminders, impressive online website, to the eye catching art work, this man and his practice is genius. My hygienist was so not scary. In fact, I left feeling satiated, clean, and oh so much smarter about the health of my teeth. Oh, and the view from the top floor of the medical dental building is not so bad either. Especially when the sun hits the peaks of Mt. Baker, ehhh, I guess it’s aiiiight.

Dr. Zimmer is great! He knows what he’s talking about, his services and dentistry use the most up to date materials and techniques. His hygienist staff is very friendly and attentive. The office is very modern and has great views of the city from the top of the medical dental building. He was recommended to me, and i’d recommend him to others without hesitation.

I live in the ‘burbs but commute to downtown Seattle for dental work because Dr Zimmer and his staff are so terrific. When I moved from the city in 2000, I saw a local dentist who said I needed a ton of work. A friend recommended Dr Zimmer, who said much of that work wasn’t necessary. He told me what was necessary. A few years later we ended up doing some cosmetic work, but only when I thought it had become necessary. He’s also created sleep appliances that helped get me off a CPAP machine. Emily is my hygienist, and she’s gentle, professional, and efficient.

Hands down, the best dentist in the state of Washington. I trust all of these people with everything and they never try to upsell/provide a service you don’t need, which I found at many other dentists. Brittany is absolutely wonderful and always so cheery, Zimmer is absolutely incredible and provides patients plants (what dentist does that) and the best service/cleanliness/trust you would want in a dentist. The office is a treat in itself considering Dr. Zimmer is an art collector too!? Can’t recommend anyone enough to go here- I’ve done wisdom teeth, Invisalign, teeth whitening, cavities, cleanings, everything! All executed with total excellence by their entire team.

I love my dentist and his staff. I love the art. I love the convenience of the Medical-Dental building. I love the garden out the window (he’s on the top floor and has a garden set up outside on the roof of the lower sections.) I love the technology (lots of email/text reminder options.) Dr Zimmer is great. Sure, he keeps busy, but I’ve never felt like he didn’t have enough time for me. My hygienist is great, too. Been with her for years now. Both my wife and I use this office and have no regrets.

I consider myself a special needs patient and Dr. Zimmer is the best dentist I’ve ever had. I’m not merely “anxious” or just “afraid of dentists.” I experience deep ptsd when I’m in the chair, even for cleanings, and Dr. Zimmer and his staff are more patient, kind, and genuinely empathetic than any other dentist I’ve had in my life. They simply get it: they don’t shame or judge me, they don’t minimize my experience, they don’t try to make me feel differently. They are gentle, open and responsive. They take things as slowly as I need to go, they are warm and reassuring, and they listen to me when I tell them how I’m doing, and when I ask for what I need. In addition to all that, they do great work. My crown (made while I waited so I didn’t have to make two visits!) is lovely and holding up beautifully. Honestly can’t say enough good stuff about them. The best. P.S. the space is great, the art is unique (and sometimes peculiar), and the views are spectacular.

I love Dr. Zimmer, his staff, and his office! The office is filled with interesting contemporary art, has a lovely rooftop garden visible from the exam chairs, and there is even an office cat (who does not go anywhere near the equipment or exam/procedure rooms). Dr. Zimmer has never tried to sell me cosmetic procedures, which I really appreciate. And he has been consistently willing to donate items to school auctions and other volunteer projects. As icing on the cake, Dr. Zimmer hosts a summer roof party with live music for all of his patients! I have never been more pleased with a dentist.

After a disappointing interaction with my usual dentist, I sought help from Dr. Zimmer’s practice to perform a root canal on a tooth that had become infected and abscessed following a routine filling three weeks ago. Several of my friends had been seen here and had nothing but wonderful things to say.
