PATIENT REVIEWS

This practice is friendly, ethical, and efficient. I spent almost no time waiting for anybody during my appointment, which is not always the case with other dentists. Clearly ethical, Dr. McClellan told me I did not need any fillings, when another (questionable) dentist told me I needed 3. My hygienist even went as far as to retake X-rays that I provided from my previous appointment for no charge to allow Dr. McClellan to get a better look at them. I could not recommend this place more; they are booked months in advance for good reason.

I have been a patient for over 13 years. I long stopped working downtown yet still make the trip downtown for dental services. Dr. McClellan is kind, trustworthy, patient and honest. His staff is friendly and helpful. I never have a problem making an appointment. The bottom line is I trust Dr. McClellan 100%. I haven’t been able to say that about all of my health care providers.

Great people work here. There was some insurance billing issue, but the staff handled it professionally and I did not have to bear the costs. I was happy that Dr McClellan’s office made it a stress-free experience for me because I have had different experiences in the past with other doctors’ offices. It’s also great that they are in the tunnels and open at 7AM. For regular cleaning appointments, plan ahead of time–they get full months out.

I love this place mainly coz I can trust Dr.Patrick. He is the first dentist who did not say that “you need to take out your wisdom teeth”. My wisdom teeth have never bothered me but all my past dentists have said I need to take them out irrespective. I’m glad I never gave into it. My hygienist was great too. My husband goes here to and he highly recommended it so even though I live in the heights I took the bus downtown and it was worth it.

I love how I can get early (7:20am) appointments, so that the rest of my day can remain uninterrupted. They’re always quick, gentle, and personable. I think they accept most forms of insurance as well. I took off a star because sometimes their bills are difficult to decipher. They are helpful if you bring to the in person. One just has to find the time. Also, I don’t work anywhere near the tunnel, so when I walk to the Dentists’ office in casual wear, I feel awfully self-conscious. But hey, that’s my issue, and I can cry about it if I want to, but I should probably get back to work.

What a GREAT experience. I have a slight fear of dentists and I was lucky enough to have a wonderful one in New Orleans and even after I moved from there for 5 years, work kept me going there and I was able to do my 6 month cleanings when I went. I have recently changed jobs and was looking for a replacement dentist in Houston that treated me as well as my dentist in NoLa did. I have found the best in town! My dental hygienist was Meleesa and she was wonderful during the clean. Then when Dr. McClellan reviewed my Xrays, he ensured that my teeth were doing just fine and currently I am awaiting a time to correct some minor gaps. Prices seem great and I am Very happy with their service and location!

I chipped my wisdom tooth that had cavity on Friday and although I couldn’t reach doctor Patrick over the weekend but the first thing Monday morning I walked up to the clinic. The staff was friendly and understanding and explained me that everything happens via appointment but they took down my request for an urgent appointment. Within 20 mins I got a call to come down to the clinic and after 5 mins of form filling I was attended straight away. Doctor Patrick is so warm, friendly and knowledgeable. All my apprehensions regarding unnecessary procedures, expensive treatments went away within seconds. Doctor was thorough in his examination and recommendations and the staff is super efficient. They also helped me out with my insurance queries. I have a lot of dental work to be done and I know where to go!

I hate going to the dentist as much as the next guy, but I’m so grateful to have found Dr. McClellan. You may have to wait for a few days to see him, but trust me, it’s worth it. I had a filling done somewhere else and it was a botched job. I went back to the same place several months later, they redid the procedure, and it didn’t get any better. Out of desperation, I reached out to Dr. McClellan on recommendation, and it was the best thing I could’ve done for myself. He told me honestly that he needed to redo the procedure and although it was a huge bummer, I bit the bullet and went for it. My tooth healed super nicely and it’s been over a year without pain or soreness! I thought my mouth was messed up forever. His techs are the sweetest, most efficient women in the business. His practice runs like a well-oiled machine, and I trust these pearly whites to no one else in Houston. Not sure if it’s thanks to the quality of insurance I have, but he’s never broken my bank, and I’ve had a few procedures done here. Thanks, Dr. McClellan for what you do.

Great, no-nonsense dental practice. There seem to be so many flashy dentists out there too busy trying to sell you veneers and other goofy cosmetic procedures that they forget about just taking care of your teeth. I’ve always had great care, reasonable prices, and felt comfortable with the folks at Dr. McClellan’s. If you have an “emergency” they can squeeze you in and their scheduled appointment times are very convenient for downtown workers. Overall, doesn’t get much better in my book. Thanks Dr. McClellan!

Dr. Mac and his staff are fantastic, and FAST! I work downtown, so I love that I can just go downstairs any time of day, get my cleaning, and come back to work. No driving, no wasted mornings, etc. As mentioned in other reviews, appointments are hard to come by, though, so be sure to schedule your cleaning way in advance.

I have been a loyal patient for over 12 years. I haven’t worked downtown for 8 years but could not imagine starting with a new dentist. I have had various hygienists over the years and they have all been friendly and professional. I only want to see Dr. McClellan for one minute. That means my teeth are in good condition. I have had different procedures including cavities, crowns, mouth guard, and overlays. All of them have been very positive experiences. I love the early morning appointment options. I highly recommend this dentist.

He has been my dentist since 1987 (30 years). He listens and is sincere, honest, and respectful of the patient’s feelings and opinions. I trust him implicitly to tell me the truth and all options. He was the dentist who finally told me I had periodontal disease for which I had full mouth surgery using a specialist he recommended.

If you’re downtown, this is THE best dentist office to go to. They have early appointments (I think as early as 7:30am) and are very efficient so you can be in and out in 30 minutes (or less) The hygenists are friendly and Dr. McClellan is wonderful. They even go above and beyond to fix little things they can.

I really love Dr. McClellan and the dental hygienist/assistant that I see but I find the office staff to be really challenging to deal with. I’ve been a patient of Dr. McClellan’s for several years now and wanted to wait to leave a review to see if the behaviors were just a fluke. Unfortunately, they are not. Half the time I call to make or reschedule appointments, the person I speak with is short, rude, or seems out of touch. I have to repeat myself several times, as if they aren’t really listening the first time or two or they are brand new on the job. When I went into the office to pick up my whitening trays and supplies, I had to explain why I was there several times to the front desk staff and they almost sent me home with the wrong materials. There were no notifications during the first few months of COVID that they were canceling all appointments and closing the office; I called a few days before my appointment to cancel it myself when I found out that they were still closed. And to me the worst offense, is that when I referred my partner to start going to Dr. McClellan’s for his dental cleanings, he said the office staff was incredibly rude to him. The dental hygienist took a bunch of xrays that were not covered by our insurance without explaining this ahead of time, so we were caught by surprise with a bill. One of the several people we spoke with over the phone to deal with the bill was very unprofessional and I actually ended up embarrassed that I had referred my partner to this dentist. Dr. McClellan is such a kind and personable man who has always been very polite during my interactions with him but the office staff has a lot of room for improvement. 5 stars for Dr. M and my dental hygienist, only 2 for the office staff.

Dr. McClellan and his staff are true professionals. I made an appoinment for an annual checkup after reading positive reviews on Yelp and had a really great experience. Here are the things I liked: – Early morning appointments (before 9am) are available. – The staff, especially my hygenist, Rosa, were courteous, professional, friendly, and informed. – I felt like they did a very thorough job with the checkup and made recommen

Dr. McClellan in my book is an angel. I broke off a mollar, and called the office and the ladies were extremely accommodating to see me the next day. Even though am a grown ass man am a chicken shit when it comes to dental work. Andrea his assistant was an angel, as the drilling began the Dr. would ask me “How are you”? At one point I was feeling some pain so he gave me a 3rd shot. I would not hesitate to recommend the Dr. or his staff the ladies are super nice and extremely convenient for those of us that work in Downtown.

Was in Houston for First Robotics. Had a tooth chip two weeks ago and had it smoothed. Something happened and the sharp edge was back. Dr. McClellan’s office was polite and kind, fitting me in a very busy afternoon. The staff are courteous and professional. Dr McClellan was kind and did a great job, smoothing the tooth to eliminate the pain point. Took all of of 10 minutes. Great experience, nice dentist, nice staff.

I’m writing under my daughter’s name, but this is Nancy Brasfield.  I have been going to Dr. McClellan for about 20 plus years now, even moved away for a few years and went back to him.  People wonder why I drive all the way Downtown for him, but it’s because he is an EXCELLENT dentist and love his Hygenist Melisa, and their staff is wonderful.  He has a conservative approach, which I respect, but also is progressive with all the new technology for dentistry these days!  Highly recommended 🙂

Perfect dentist’s office for anyone working in downtown Houston. I’ve been going since I started work a year ago and have been very satisfied with my experience. Lunch time appointments are not a problem and it’s very easy to get a hold of the office. I have also never had to wait in the waiting room which is nice for getting back to work on time. At my old office, you had to get there on time and then wait in the waiting room for half an hour… pretty frustrating. Meleesa has cleaned my teeth every time so far, and she is great… takes her time and good at giving you a play by play. Office is on the bottom floor on One Shell Plaza… got lost the first time I went, but the receptionist patiently gave me step by step instructions. 😉 I would definitely recommend Dr. McClellan and his team to anyone looking for a dentist!

Great dentist and office. Everyone was friendly and the wait was not long at all. The dentist is very kind and personable. He thoroughly checked my teeth and x-rays. The cleaning was thorough and gentle (thank you!), and the dental hygienist was personable as well. The hygienist also gave me a great sample for a cold sore I had -it’s working great. Convenient if you work downtown – you just walk in the building, walk through the elevators, turn left, go down the escalator, turn left again, and walk PAST the people’s bank (some bank) and the office is right beside the bank on your right (sort of under the escalator). The people at the front desk for the building can also explain. The only thing I would mention (sort of silly, but still) is that when I first sat down, Eminem rap (angry rap) was playing as the music selection, and I thought that was slightly stressful music for a dentist office, but I think it was just on top 40 stuff, and I didn’t really notice the music after that. Maybe choose a more chill or calming music? 🙂 They book up fast, so expect to wait a few months before you can get in if you’re a new patient.

I needed a cleaning and check-up, but my hours aren’t really conducive to middle-of-the-day appointments. Saved by Dr. McClellan and a 7:00 a.m. appointment! I trooped through the tunnels until I got to Shell One Plaza, where I was saved by a passerby from walking around aimlessly. If you’re in the tunnels and see the Patrick McClellan sign, walk up the few steps into Shell One and go to the right. Just before the escalator to the street-level floor, there’s a little nook to the right – Suite 190 is right there. My hygienist was friendly, polite, and fantastic. The cleaning was great, she got tons of coffee stains off (note to self: drink less coffee), and reminded me to floss more. Yes, ma’am. Dr. McClellan was similarly friendly and professional, spent a few moments poking around, and confirmed that my teeth look great. The whole experience was efficient and warm – definitely returning in six months.

I love this place! My hygenist does a great job cleaning my teeth every time. They never try to get you to do “extra” treatments (which my old dentist used to try to do). They’re efficient, rarely (if ever) late for appointments, and do great work. Very convenient to those in downtown. I would continue coming here even if I wasn’t in downtown b/c I’ve come to trust their work. You have to make appointments well in advance b/c they are very popular and book up fast…probably b/c they have so many happy customers.

I’ve been going to Dr. McClellan for the past 15 years now. I have switched jobs, moved farther away and tried finding other replacements to no avail. I always come back to him. Every time I leave and go to a new dentist, they always have services that I ‘have’ to have done; some are quite pushy. Dr. McClellan, on the other hand, is very honest, he will actually tell you if the service is not needed, if that is the case. The staff is wonderful and although his office is busy, I haven’t had to wait for an appointment. I highly recommend Dr. McClellan!

I saw the reviews for Dr. McClellan and as he was in in my plan, I decided to give him a try. I’ve been looking for a new dentist after horrible experiences with (another dental office) – where their main mission is to upsell you and get you to buy anything and everything that you don’t need. A $300 electric toothbrush? Yes, it’s absolutely essential. Veneers for #3,000 a tooth? You would benefit greatly. Ummm…BULLSHIT. Plus, walking in there was like walking into some trendy getaway spa. Which though that might sound good to some people, it isn’t what I’m looking for when I’m at the DOCTOR. I want to feel like I’m at a legitimate medical facility, with a REAL doctor who knows what he’s talking about and whose aim is to treat PATIENTS, not CUSTOMERS. But I digress. And thank goodness I found Dr. McClellan’s office. The dental hygienist was so nice and gentle! They didn’t try to talk me into a bunch of mouth work I don’t need, and they were so helpful about things I can do on my own to help with my oral care. Like FLOSSING – which they gave me an abundance of. All different kinds so I could try them all and find my favorite! I just can’t express how happy I am to have found my dentist! And Dr. McClellan should teach a course to other dentists on how to run a practice!
