PATIENT REVIEWS

This is my first time writing a yelp review, but Dr. Ellis and her staff deserve it. I had my first visit and cleaning last month, and it was the most thorough checkup I have ever had. The entire staff is so friendly and kind, and you can tell they genuinely care about their patients. My hygienist was very personable and chatted with me during my cleaning. I had to go back today for a filling, and Dr. Ellis was great. She made me feel at ease despite having to get the dreaded shot. I’m in my late 20s but I appreciated the reassuring “mom” touch she adds. I usually have a little anxiety about going to the dentist, but that’s not a problem here. I’m super grateful I found this office, and I will stay here as long as I’m in the St. Louis area.

Dr. Ellis and Jordan were both so kind and worked hard to get to the root of my pain and help me come up with a plan. Jordan also followed up with me shortly after my appointment which was very much appreciated. Everyone in the office is always so kind and helpful. Can’t say enough about Dr. Ellis and her wonderful team!

I have been waiting a long time to find a dentist office like the Ellis dental office! I cannot believe the detail that you go into & am so grateful you do! Everyone is so friendly & make you feel like part of the family. I cannot wait to bring the rest of my family to the office so they can experience the wonderful care that I received! Thank you all! Amanda Wozniak

As a physician myself I have high standards for what I consider good care; Ellis dental exceeded all expectations. You know when you walk into a facility that every employee feels respected and satisfied with their contribution to the success of the organization which was my first impression and sustained throughout my entire visit..

For a person who is dental phobic, (as I am ) Dr. Ellis has always made every appointment as easy as is humanly possible. She goes out of her way to handle every problem cheerfully, professionally, and with attention to detail., She explains everything that will happen and doesn’t make you feel rushed. She doesn’t recommend unnecessary services. She is accessible by phone even on non business hours. You feel she is a caring physician. When an emergency arose she was able to see me right away and handle the problem even though it was after hours. Wonderful professional.

Dr. Ellis and her staff are outstanding.  It is always a very pleasant experience to go to Dr. Ellis’s office for an appointment.  She and her staff are the best dental staff that I have experienced.  They really do a good job and and they do it in a very pleasant way.  She is the best Dentist in St. Louis and her staff is the best staff in St. Louis. They are the best around.

I called Dr. Ellis, on a holiday Sunday, and she returned my call within 1 hour. I found out later she was out of town. Because of her call I could enjoy my grand daughter Birthday. She promised she would call me on a Holiday Monday and did at time she promised. In dental chair following morning at 8a.m… I will continue to refer her to anyone looking for a new Dentist. People do not care how much you know, until they know how much you care. Dr. Holly Ellis CARES! GREAT SERVICE! FRIENDLY OFFICE STAFF.

This was my first time there I was an absolute nervous wreck I think I was able to contain myself though but The entire staff is very friendly dr. Ellis super friendly they both made me feel very comfortable dr. Ellis is very thorough her assistant didn’t get her name very thorough as well very comfortable atmosphere lots of parking looking forward to my next appointment

I have been a patient of Dr. Ellis for a while.  I am very happy with the care and attention I (and my whole family) get.  The health of my teeth and gums has improved over the years!  My hygienist Lore is so sweet, but she does not play around when it comes to cleaning my teeth and encouraging me to take the best care of my mouth!  I trust Dr. Ellis and her team to take care of me and my family.  I’m so glad I found her!

The one thing I love about Ellis Dental is the fact that there is alway laughter throughout the office. This staff truly enjoys what they do and really cares about their patients. Dr. Ellis is one of a kind and treats her patients with the utmost respect. Renee does an awesome job and Vicki will keep you laughing through your entire appointment.

Ellis Dental exceeded my expectations! The peaceful environment as well as the courteous and kind staff welcomed me and my two young daughters. The facility was clean, organized and operated efficiently. They offer massage chairs, lavender pillows, ear plugs, blankets and more for your comfort! My evaluation from Dr. Ellis was professional and kind. She calmly explained everything she did. Her genuine investment in me and each patient and how we care for our teeth is a testament to her integrity and dedication. My girls’ fears of the dentist were quelled once they met the hygienist and Dr. Ellis. They walked them through each task and allowed them to explore each tool so they would feel comfortable. Our experience was calm and efficient and we felt cared for by the staff. We will be returning and I highly recommend this practice.

I have a tremendous fear of dentists due to some very bad experiences.From the greeting at the front desk to a warm hug good-bye, EVERYONE did their best to calm my fears and make sure I was comfortable. This was my first visit to this office and will be starting a long process but, knowing how caring everyone is I feel confident things will be fine.

I had been seeing the same dentist for nearly 25 years, but after moving & changing jobs I needed to find someone closer. Seems I made a good choice. I’ve only been once, but everyone in the office was super friendly & I felt like I had known Dr. Ellis for years. She has a very likeable personality & made me feel very comfortable. So far, so good.

Amaaaaaazing staff!!! Every single person who works here is so nice and really goes out of their way to make you feel super comfortable! From the phone call to the very end, you will truly have the BEST experience you’ll ever have at a dentist office I promise! I called this morning for an emergency appointment and without any hesitation that got me in a few hours later…such great service and friendly atmosphere. I’ve been seeing Dr. Ellis for 8 years now and I honestly wouldn’t change it for the world. For someone who was absolutely terrified of going to the dentist, since day 1 she has always made me feel at ease and less scared because of how she treats her patients. Do not hesitate to call and make an appointment with her if you are looking for a dentist!!!

I took my 15 month old son Graham to see Dr. Ellis per his pediatrician’s recommendation. Given the fact that he usually cries uncontrollably and gets very fearful in any type of medical setting, I was fully prepared and expecting that same response from Graham when we saw the dentist. I was wrong. The dental assistant, Chelsea, immediately hit it off with Graham who was smiling and even laughing with her! She really engaged him and won him over. Thank you, Chelsea! Dr. Ellis came in and developed immediate rapport with my son immediately! She is sweet and patient and put both myself and Graham at ease right away. He actually opened his mouth and Dr. Ellis was able to complete what we came for within a few minutes. Dr. Ellis spent time with us and eased my concerns and answered all of my questions. What a relief to know that my son isn’t scared of the dentist at the young age of 1! Thank you, Dr. Ellis and Chelsea-we will most definitely be back!

She is professional, caring, and doesn’t ridicule me about my irrational phobia of dentists. (Which is even more hysterical if you knew how many crowns, fillings and procedures I’ve had over the years, though many not from her.) She has always gone above and beyond, even calling me once from her vacation to make sure I was not in pain after a procedure. She is not a preferred provider on my health insurance, but I won’t switch to someone else just for money.

I’ve been going to Ellis Dental about a year now, and I love it. The whole staff I’ve encountered has been friendly and personable. The techs who clean my teeth have been top notch and very thorough. I have gotten great toothbrush and whitening recommendations, and always left feeling like it was a positive experience. Dr. Ellis is the best. Highly recommend!

I have been very reluctant to visit any Dentist after several “not so good” experiences. However, after hearing an advertisement on the radio for Ellis Dental I decided to give it a try. I was a bit apprehensive thinking all of these reviews can’t be true, but I was wrong. My first appointment was today and I can honestly say it was a “breeze”! Never have I been so comfortable in a dentist’s office and yes, the staff is amazing as is Dr. Ellis. Once in the door, you are made to feel completely at ease and given the VIP treatment. I can’t believe I am saying this, but, I actually am looking forward to my next appointment! Do yourself a favor and visit Ellis Dental …. you’ll be so glad you did!

Ellis Dental is the best dental practice we have ever seen. We have been patients of ED since Holly Ellis first took over and started her own practice several years ago. The service and facilities, state of the art equipment have continued to amaze and impress us. Our entire family comes here now! Thanks for being so compassionate, thorough and helpful through the years!

Very professional and very friendly. It’s been many years since I have had to go in for anything besides routine cleaning, and though I have never really been “afraid” of going to the dentist, after so many years there is a little trepidation on my part, but I am happy to say that they made the experience very comfortable and relaxing. I highly recommend Ellis Dental!

I love coming into this office, Dr. Ellis and everyone else are wonderful people. It is so professional and friendly. I can’t say enough good about the care they have taken of my teeth. Top Notch!!!! She is the best dentist I have had in my 67 years. I have complete faith and trust in everyone there. Hurry and sign up before she no longer takes patients. She is that good. She will be receiving honors from her professional colleagues, I am sure.

Update: I have been going to Ellis Dental for years and LOVE them. I recently took my 12 year old foster son for his first appointment and he had such a great experience that he put his welcome postcard from the office in the bathroom to see every time he brushes his teeth. Shout out to Jen!!! Dr. Ellis and her staff are friendly, professional, and efficient. The office is modern, clean, and welcoming and very well run. I would definitely recommend Dr. Ellis and her team to all of my friends and family!

I’ve had many negative experiences at various Dental offices, but I have to say that my recent visit at Ellis Dental was nothing but positive. They are very thorough, friendly, informative and efficient! I had an extraction done that was difficult, but completely painless. I’m looking forward to a good, long relationship with all the ladies in the office.

This was our first time at this dental group. Our dentist retired and Dr. Ellis took his patients. My son had a tooth issue and we scheduled our first appointment which we got in within a week (it was not that urgent). My son loved the office, people and atmoshere (he is 11), and said he liked it better than the old dentist. Mary, Dr. Ellis assistant made him feel very welcome and like she knew him forever. She made him feel so comfortable asking him questions and teasing with him. The girls at the front desk were very friendly and nice. We had a wonderful experience and I would recommend Ellis to anyone. Thank you!

I must say that it was one of the most enjoyable experiences I have had in a very long time-which was due in large part to Mary making me feel like she would take as much time as was necessary to make sure I understood what was going on and then Dr. Ellis made me feel confident about getting the information I needed to make an informed decision. This group of people work very hard to make a new patient feel welcome and appreciated.
Thank you!

I had a very good 1st dental experience at Ellis Dental.  Everyone was friendly and professional.  My teeth feel great today post my cleaning with Denise.  I look forward to obtaining my impressions for continued whiteness, which  Mary provided great efficiency with.  Dr. Ellis is very thorough approachable and obviously knowledgeable. I am glad I was recommended to this office and it feels as though I have found a very good dentist.  Thanks Pam Sauer

I have been to several offices in the area and what usually turns me off is the office workers. At Ellis the front office is so friendly and nice. This really makes the whole experience great. Dr. Ellis takes her time explaining options and during the procedure she offers encouraging words. If you have apprehension about visiting a dentist – give Ellis a try it is different than most offices

This is the best dental office I have been to in the St. Louis area! I’ve switched dentists about 6 times in my 30 years and the team at Ellis are above and beyond great. No judgement, empathetic, up front with costs, and like others have said – every single person who works here is genuinely kind and considerate and not in a fake and annoying way if you know what I mean! I have never been “excited” to go back for a dental cleaning 🙂 Thanks for getting me back on track Ellis Dental!

Doctor Ellis and her team are absolutely fantastic! The front desk staff are always friendly and make you feel like you have known them forever. Doctor Ellis is very thorough with her examines and so are her team of dental hygienists. They make sure to explain everything in a way you can understand and make sure you are comfortable and as pain free as possible. Doctor Ellis and her team treat you like family. Every time I have an appointment, I actually look forward to going because I know great conversations and the feeling of “home” are what’s to come, not to mention the outstanding care you will receive. I would recommend all of my friends and family to see Doctor Ellis and her team.

Had an early appointment and they got me in right away. Dr. Ellis reattached my crown that came off. She cleaned it up checked my gums and I was back at work. Everyone there was so welcoming and kind. I’m going back for my regular check up and cleaning and I’m gonna send my husband there too! Thank you everyone who took care of me. It was a pleasant experience.

Dr. Ellis is very up to date in all dental techniques and is very friendly. She explains everything in detail and will answer any questions you might have. I highly recommend Dr. Ellis and her team if you are looking for a dental practice that is knowledgeable about all modern techniques, including oral sleep apnea appliances. Friendly. professional staff and dentist.

Seriously the best dentist office, hands down! I actually enjoy going! if you are on the edge of making an appointment due to anxiety, don’t be!!! They go the extra mile to make you comfortable. I’ve had Amanda pre numb me so well before a cavity, I Seriously didn’t feel the shot. Im telling you this group of ladies are wonderful! I absolutely love this office! I have DDS O’Shaughennesy and I absolutely love her! I give them 5 hearts, not stars, because I love this office that much ❤❤❤❤❤

I had an appointment for deep cleaning around one tooth. When Sandy was checking the area around the tooth. She told me it looked much better and did not need to do the procedure! Scheduled me for regular check up in 6 months. I was relieved to hear this. This was great news for me. I have been going to Ellis Dental for several years now and really do feel comfortable there each time.

Ellis Dental truly cares about their patients of all ages. Today my son was anxious to have his first set of ex-rays completed. However, his hygienist Renee put him right at ease. She acknowledged his concerns, walked him through the process and followed his lead. Together they were successful. My son was proud of overcoming his fears and would not have been able to do it without the amazing team of women at Ellis Dental!

I began seeing Dr. Ellis when she took over another dentist’s practice. Because I am a creature of habit and didn’t want to have to ask around for recommendations for another dentist, I figured I’d go check out the new dentist and decide if I’d continue. Appointment time and in walks this smiling, cheerful young lady. This is the dentist? I’m not sure about this. Where’s the wisdom that comes with age and experience? Hmmm . . . Well, that was several years ago and I’m still seeing Dr. Holly Ellis and the wonderful staff of Ellis Dental. When I’ve had emergencies, she has called me back. One time, she said she knew I was in pain and needed to call me because the message I left indicated I couldn’t finish my sandwich from Panera Bread! This last time, exactly one week ago today, she was vacationing with family but still returned my call. Side note: I’m impressed that she is definitely family-oriented, and has also been on mission trips. Back to her denistry . . . The emergency I had last week required her to call around to find a dentist who could see me the next day, a Friday of the 4th of July week. She did it, though. That is caring. She’s a blessing to me, personally. I usually see Denise for my cleaning, and it surprises me that she remembers these little details of my life. Yes, they’re probably written in my chart, but still, she remembers. My favorite staff, though, of all time is no longer there. I’m not going to mention her name, but the staff know who I’m talking about! She could say things to me, and in a way others wouldn’t dare say to me, that were right on point. We’d joke with each other, but she was better at it than me. Dr. Ellis and her staff stay up-to-date on the latest technology in this area, so I know I’m likely getting the most current treatment modalities. Now, they’re not perfect and some of the staff may occasionally seem to have an attitude or be a little abrupt with me, but I’m sure sometimes I’m not the most pleasant patient. Anyway, that’s my evaluation of Ellis Dental. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, expertise, and caring.
