Practice Profile Page

Dr Patel and his staff are simply the best! Cynthia has been my dental hygienist for years and she feels like a family member. She does such a thorough and amazing job cleaning my teeth. Other places definitely rush through the cleaning to jam in as many patients as they can – not Dr. Patel’s office! They are all so nice and so professional. I brag to my friends and family about the bridge and crown that Dr. Patel did for me. You could never tell that I even had them done. The crown was a tricky split tooth and Dr. Patel was able to salvage the base and still install a crown. I would and do recommended Dr. Patel and his staff to anybody. If you are currently looking for a new dentist, absolutely go to Dr. Patel. Even in a runner of Covid-19, I felt completely safe and cared for during my normal cleaning appointment.

We have been patients of Winter Park Dental for over 25 years. We have always been very pleased with the services and the extra care provided by them. All the staff is excellent, but especially our dental hygienist, Cynthia who is absolutely the best. After so many years of having Cynthia perform our dental cleanings, she has become like family to us. Kudos to Dr. Patel and the staff at Winter Park Dental.

Dr. Patel is nothing short of a miracle worker. He is exceptionally proficient in all aspects of Dentistry. He is the only dentist I trust. After relocating to Jacksonville last year, my husband and I find that we would rather drive the 2.5 hours down to Winter Park Dental than to risk trusting another dentist. He is not only highly competent but also empathetically aware of his patient’s comfort during procedures. I would recommend Dr. Patel and his staff to anyone. I found them through my insurance’s website by chance, and it turned out to be such a blessing. I have been terrified of dentists due to various traumatic experiences as a kid. Dr. Patel is patent, understanding, and compassionate. At the same time, he is real, won’t candy-coat your issues, and won’t stop until he gets to a solution that works for you. His office is modern and uses the latest advanced technologies, which help to alleviate stress and anxiety. Additionally, this is definitely a great dentist for anyone who has a fear of dentists. His staff will hold your hand when you are scared. They are patient with you and will go at a pace you are comfortable with. Oh, and Ms. Amber, the lovely lady that sits behind the counter as you walk in, I love her. She will go to the moon and back for every soul that comes in, providing you with helpful information, scheduling convenient appointments, and easing your dental anxieties. Treat her well. I genuinely can’t speak highly enough about these beautiful people. They are amazing. If it weren’t for them, I never would be who I am today, and I am not exaggerating. When I first was a patient, I was so terrified that I would often wait until it was too late to save my tooth, and extraction was the only solution. My problematic teeth were crooked, stained, chipped, and I had several gaps. Now, several root canals, crowns, and bridges later, my smile looks better than ever. Increased self-esteem led to a recent weight loss of over 60 pounds, and I look damn good. I love taking pictures with my kids and husband now. Something I was never able to enjoy before. Sincerely, if you are struggling with your self-esteem, or are just having anxiety about getting a tooth fixed that has been nagging you, stop in and see Patel. You will be so thankful you did. Life is too short to hide behind a closed-lip smile.

I have been a patient of this practice for a number of years. Dr. Patel is a excellent dentist. He takes the time to talk with you, and clearly explain any problems you may have in terms you can under stand. His staff is very friendly. You do not feel like you are rushed through your appointment. I highly recommend this practice.
