PATIENT REVIEWS

Check out what some of our happy patients are saying about us:

Joel K. from Franklin, WI (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

If you follow my YELP work, I usually review restaurants, with an occasional positive review for the service providers. I will include Dr. Costello and the Downtown Dental Staff in my body of work. Here is what is like… I gave them my insurance card once, and I never get hassled with bills. I have been going for about 3 years. I never wait in the waiting room long enough to even finish a magazine article. They were very helpful when I asked about what I can do to make my teeth even more awesome. All the advice they gave worked. Very clean place TV’s available while they clean my grill (with cable) And they always remind me of my appointments in ample time. They’re located above the Grand AVE Mall, I like to visit TJ MAXX or the produce cart when I go.

First and foremost, to be able to fill out all New Patient Forms online prior to coming into the office was so nice. The Office Manager Katie is so good at her job. She actually takes time to sit and talk with you to discuss any concerns before your appointment. Her and her staff up front are second to none. My hygienist was so thorough and gentle. It literally was the easiest x-rays and cleaning I have ever experienced. Dr. Costello is as cool as a fan. His calm demeanor and great personality put me at ease right away. His best quality is that he is genuinely concerned about what is best for ME, his patient. He let me express my long term goals for my teeth and then explained how we will accomplish them. TOGETHER. Without pushing any unnecessary products, services, or costs on me. I appreciated that more than anything and is the reason I will continue to go to Downtown Dental Group for as long as they let me. Thanks again Dr. Costello, Katie, and staff. Keep up the good work.

I was always nervous about going to the dentist, and avoided it for years. But when I went to Dr. Costello, all of the staff were so professional and polite, I knew I was in good hands. They have many solutions to help make my experience more comfortable and less stressful. Dr. Costello keeps up on all the latest technology and uses only the best. He and his staff are knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. I highly recommend them!

★★★★★

I have been a patient of Dr. Costello’s for 18 years. He and his staff are very professional and knowledgeable. I know I can count on him to do the right thing when I have problems and he won’t advise me to have a procedure unless it’s absolutely necessary. He and his friendly staff make visiting the dentist relaxing and enjoyable. When I hear people say they hate going to the dentist, I tell them they should go to Dr. Costello!

★★★★★

I’m so glad I found Downtown Dental! Relieved actually. Every person I’ve encountered from Dr.Costello, to his assistant to every receptionist is extremely knowledgeable, patient and kind. Although you will get an appointment quickly and without much of a wait after checking in, you never feel rushed and are given the time and respect of having every concern or question answered thoroughly. Both my son & I are very happy with all work we’ve had done here:)

★★★★★

I’ve been a patient of Dr Costello’s for a few years now and he’s and this office provide the best dental experience I’ve ever had – and considering my extreme anxiety about the dentist, the fact that I’m totally comfortable going in says a lot. From being greeted when I walk in, to the cleanings, to the visit with Dr Costello, and then scheduling my next appointment, the office is also completely friendly and professional. I highly recommend this office to anyone looking for a dentist.

★★★★★

I’ve been a patient here for about 10 years and I would never want to go anywhere else. Dr. Costello and his whole staff are so friendly and kind and my hygienist Mary is very professional and patient with me. I’ve always had a fear of going to the dentist but here they make me feel like I’m in good hands. Since the COVID, Dr. Costello has gone to great lengths to make the office as safe as possible. There is a check-in procedure, all of their staff wear the maximum PPE available, there are air purifiers in each room, and every room and chair is sanitized between each patient. I feel very safe and confident going in there.

After moving to Milwaukee during the pandemic, I’ve finally received my dental exam/cleaning at Downtown Dental Group and it certainly was the most thorough and pleasant one! The team of Dr. Costello, my hygienist during the visit Mary, and the front desk staffs are all friendly and professional staffs! Also, throughout the office, all the safety measures and protocols made me feel safe and comfortable.

★★★★★

Hello, I’ve seen Dr. Costello for more than five years, even though I had a lapse in visits. Mary at the front desk, all the hygienists, and Dr. Costello have been extremely professional and courteous. The office and exam cubicles are always clean. Another bonus is the parking. Even though I didn’t have to use it, Mary will validate your parking ticket for the Grand Avenue parking structure, so you can park for free and not have to worry about finding street parking or plugging a meter! I would refer anybody to visit Dr. Costello.

Don L. from South Milwaukee, WI (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Costello provides his patients with a combination of good workmanship (if that term can be applied to dentistry), pro-active care (to prevent future dental disasters), and an awareness that his patients do not have limitless bank accounts. I cannot say anything about “cosmetic dentistry” issues, but for my purposes of maintaining my less-than-strong set of teeth, Dr. Costello is doing a great job. I have lived in the Milwaukee area for 40 years, and had two dentists before I started seeing Dr. Costello. I wish that I had known about him when he was first setting up his practice. Given how he has handled dental issues for both me and my spouse, he deserves those “five stars” in my rating.

★★★★★

Downtown Dental group is awesome! While I don’t love having dental work done, Dr. Costello and his staff make it easy with their warm welcomes and down to earth personalities. Dr. Costello is very thorough, honest and easy to talk to. I’m able to make my appointments so that they work with my home-life and work schedule. I also love that you receive a personalized dental plan which includes your out of pocket expenses.. this is extremely helpful to me as I’m able to pay that up front versus receiving a bill at a later date. I’ll be a patient at downtown dental group as long as Dr . Costello and his team are practicing!!

★★★★★

I’ve been a patient for about 15 years and have visited both of their offices. From the front desk to the hygienists to Dr. Costello—the team is fantastic. I’ve had both routine exams and emergency visits. They’re professional, do excellent work and go the extra mile to give you the care and service you need. And they’re friendly, to boot! I can’t recommend them enough.

Christopher Purdy (Source: Facebook)

★★★★★

I’m not a huge fan of going to the dentist, but Dr. Costello and his amazing staff always ease the nerves. From right when you walk in the door they’re very welcoming and friendly. Dr. Costello, hygienist and assistants are extremely caring and attentive. Definitely highly recommend the downtown dental group.

★★★★★

I love Downtown Dental. I started going in 2001 and have been very happy. All the staff are kind and professional and I look forward to seeing them. Dr. Costello doesn’t encourage unnecessary work, which I appreciate. My two and a half year-old daughter just had her first appointment and it went great! I cannot say enough good things about my experiences at Downtown Dental.

Erica Conway (Source: Facebook)

★★★★★

I was referred to Dr. Costello over 7 years ago and am happy with the whole shebang. The location is super convenient, they have early morning hours and are so accommodating when making or moving appointments. I like that they text and email appointment reminders too. Love the hygienists and Dr. Costello. What a great team!

★★★★★

Dr. Costello and his staff are motivated to put the patient first and offer top quality services. I recently had a procedure to place a temporary cap, then the actual permanent cap, on a large tooth. In both visits there was little discomfort and even the temporary cap “fit like a glove.” Thanks much!

Today, I brought my two-year-old daughter to Grant Park Dental, officially making her a 3rd generation patient. It was so neat to be able to walk her around Gail’s desk to let her pick toys to play with (just like I did when I was little) and have her get her picture taken for the “No Cavities” board (just like I did). Michelle and Dr. Mike were so patient and gentle with her and she couldn’t wait to brush her teeth with her special new toothbrush. I’m so grateful my parents found Dr. Costello’s office way back in 1993. ❤️ (I know she looks scared in the picture, but she was just watching Vampirina. ☺️)

I have been a heavy soda drinker for years, and after not seeing a dentist for 12 years I knew I needed some painful work. We just moved to the area so I began my search. I was so FORTUNATE to have found this office! No judgement, and the kindest helpful staff. Everyone took time with me to make sure I felt comfortable from the moment I made the appointment. The work needed was broken down and shown to me so I could understand exactly what I needed done and that it was achievable. We completed the first portion of the work needed today with absolutely no pain at any point and all before I had to begin work at 9am. This team has saved my smile, and I think they’d be pretty proud to know I didn’t have a soda today so they may have saved even more than just my smile. I don’t have enough words to express my thanks to Dr. Costello, Hannah, and his administrative team. Look no further for your dental needs, Confidental is the best!!!

★★★★★

Dr. Costello and his staff are always extremely professional and friendly. You are greeted immediately when you walk in the door and my appointments always start on time which I really appreciate. Even though it is downtown, they validate parking in the Grand Avenue parking garage so you don’t have to worry about street parking. Highly recommend Downtown Dental!

Amber N. from Milwaukee, WI (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

The Downtown Dental Group goes above and beyond to ensure a smile is on my face from the moment I walk into the office until I have to visit again. I currently live in Chicago and I started seeing Dr. Costello before I moved here & still make the trip up to Milwaukee for all of my dental needs. The front desk ladies always great me with a smile, let me know what to expect for the day & also are extremely buttoned up with all insurance needs/questions. The Dental Hygienists are without a doubt the funniest group of ladies I have ever met & you can’t go wrong with any of them. Dr. Costello takes the cake for dentists and might care more about my teeth than I do (which keeps me in check w/ my flossing). He’s like the best dentist dad you could ask for. I could not recommend this group of people more – and if they ask where you heard about them – Amber N (you get referral bonuses too!) Thanks Downtown Dental Group, you’re great!

Michelle S. from Kirkland, WA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

My husband, son, and I all go to this dentist. My husband and I both moved a lot and this is the best dentist we have had. He seems to keep up to date on recent dental research and seems very attentive to any of our dental needs without going overboard with recommending procedures. Also, the TVs with cable in the dental chairs are a nice touch. They were also excellent with our 1 year old son! I thought he would run away when he saw the dental tools, but they made it fun without pressure if they couldn’t finish the cleaning. They were able to finish though with minimal crying. They made it fun for him! They had a cartoon on the TV and let him see the equipment before using it. He also liked his sticker at the end. The waiting room has a nice view of the river, but I never spend too much time looking at it. Wait times are always very short! Also, they are very flexible with us when scheduling or rescheduling our appointments. I can’t speak for the parking, because we live very nearby and walk. There is a for pay structure attached to the building. I’m not sure if they validate or not. I love having such a great dentist so close to us!

★★★★★

I am new to Milwaukee and this is a new dental office for me. I love the convenience since I live close by, flexibility, and friendliness. Today I had to get a small filling. It was absolutely painless and I joked that it was the best dentist appointment ever. But in fact, it was. Really happy I found this place and this team.

★★★★★

My family has been seeing Dr Costello for 2 years now and its been the best dental experience we’ve ever had. The hygienists are very skilled and gentle. Everyone takes time to listen to my concerns and help address them. The admin staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Dr C and the whole staff always go the extra mile for us. Great overall experience, every time.

★★★★★

My family and I have been patients of the Downtown Dental Group for seven years. We have been consistently impressed with the professionalism and friendliness demonstrated by Dr. Costello and his team. The hygienists are remarkable, patient and work well with Dr. Costello. The front desk crew are always courteous and friendly – I sometimes find myself just wanting to hang out after appointments to catch up! Most commendable has been the meticulous attention DDG paid to protocols and procedures during the pandemic. My family and I always felt safe and secure at our appointments. They’ve been an exemplar or safety during uncertain times. Many thanks to the Downtown Dental Group!

I was in Milwaukee for a volleyball tournament this past week and had a dental emergency when my crown came off during the flight to the tourney. I was part of another dental insurance group, called the dentist that came up on the in-network search, and in so many words ‘they couldn’t get me in on a Friday’. I pleaded with them, as it really was an emergency, and it would only take 10 minutes to re-cement the crown. Nope, sorry was all they said without compassion. In a panic, I did a google search and found Downtown Dental Group. The staff could NOT have been friendlier. I explained my situation in total despair. She said they were also booked, but would fit me in between appointments. And, as a bonus, they were only three blocks from our tournament. My hubby and I walked, they apologized for the many forms, knowing that I lived in DC and would not be a permanent patient. The dentist was fabulous!! I’m telling you, he was the best dentist I’ve ever had in my 53 years of life! He cleaned the old cement, re-seated the crown, and even recommended a local restaurant when I told him I hadn’t eaten since the flight the night before! They weren’t in my network, but gave me a courtesy discount anyway! What??? I don’t often write reviews, but this one had to be done. One visit to this place, and it will be your dentist for life. I wish he would move to DC.

Had a great first visit. My filling popped out and I needed it replaced. Gave me an accurate quote on the phone and scheduled me quickly. Nice office and very nice receptionist. Doctor made me feel at ease and was very gentle. Filling feels great. Assistant and doc were knowledgeable and skilled. I highly recommend Dr. Costello.

I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Costello and his work. I went to see Dr. Costello over 15 years ago for a front crown and it looked so natural that I received compliments from other dentists over the years! Now, that I need some veneer work, I am driving to Milwaukee to specifically see Dr. Costello again. The staff are very professional and very welcoming. I recommend him and his practice as your regular annual dentist and highly recommend him as your cosmetic dentist!

Rob Mayer (Source: Facebook)

★★★★★

Dr. Costello is excellent with his patients (especially the “skittish” ones), his friendly staff is compassionate and highly competent, and the office atmosphere is comfortable and relaxing. What more could you ask? I was fitted for a full set of dentures over the past summer, and although I was somewhat fearful the entire experience turned out to be completely painless and stress-free. My dazzling new smile is amazing! Thanks, Dr. Costello!

Patrick Miller (Source: Google)

★★★★★

When moving to Milwaukee, I needed to find a new dentist and was completely impressed with this team. For my initial appointment I met 1:1 with Dr. Costello to complete a patient profile, something that no one has done with me before. From the reception team to dental assistants, this a top notch dental group. Even after moving to the north suburbs, we will continue to see Dr. Costello and his team. A+, 100% recommended!

★★★★★

Dr. Costello and his staff are some of the most caring people you will come across in any dental office here in Milwaukee. I took a hiatus from getting dental care and did not know which dentist to choose. I’m very happy I came across this group on my Google search. They made me feel very comfortable and welcome.

Hubbell Galvin-Darnieder (Source: Facebook)

★★★★★

Dr. Costello and his team are great. I have been going to Dr. Costello for over 20 years and he and his team are always super polite and helpful. I have had normal cleanings, chipped tooth repair, and cavity fillings while going to Dr. Costello and all have been done without issue over the many years I’ve seen him. If you need a dentist this is the place to go.

My continued thanks and appreciation for everyone at Downtown Dental Group. The entire staff is friendly, thorough, and professional, and I feel lucky to have found such a terrific dental practice – be sure to ask about them about their business card style travel floss which fits perfectly in anyone’s wallet! Thanks!

I have been going to Dr. Costello since I can remember. Through the years not only has he always provided the best service but always find the best staff. The staff is very professional yet makes you feel comfortable. Dr. Costello and his staff don’t just treat you as a client but as if you’re family.
