RIVERDALE DENTAL CARE

Dear Dr. Shalmi, I wanted to express my endless gratitude for the outstanding dental care you've provided. When I first noticed your clinic near my daughter's house, I thought it would be very convenient to have a dental doctor close by. At the same time, finding a truly skilled and trustworthy professional was extremely important to me. So I scheduled an appointment simply to get acquainted with your clinic’s work. From the moment you examined my teeth, paying attention to every little detail and thoughtfully explaining the treatment plan, I had a feeling I was in good hands. After several months under your exceptional care, I felt compelled to offer my heartfelt thanks. Your professionalism, meticulous care, and gentle approach turned what could have been a stressful experience into something truly reassuring. Thanks to your expertise, I not only feel healthier but more confident in my smile. Even if you were to relocate your clinic, I would gladly follow,and I’ll continue recommending you to all my family and friends. With sincere appreciation, Lily Matiuhk.

I can’t recommend Dr. Shalmi and his team enough. I came in with several cavities but from start to finish, Dr. Shalmi handled everything with precision and care. He may not be overly chatty, but he lets his work speak for itself—and the results are excellent. Every procedure was done thoroughly, efficiently, and with minimal discomfort. I truly appreciated his focused approach. Maria, his assistant, is amazing—friendly, attentive, and always on top of everything. She makes you feel comfortable and cared for the moment you walk in. Appointments are easy to schedule, and I’ve never had to wait past my scheduled time- no waiting for 30 minutes or more as at other places. If you’re looking for a dentist who’s highly skilled, respectful of your time, and backed by a great team, Dr. Shalmi’s office is the one to go to. I’m so glad I found them!

Total sham. Before he even looked in my mouth he told me I’d need expensive treatments and should schedule to get implants. Tried to prescribe me antibiotics. For what? I’m unsure. Barely cleaned my teeth.

I strongly recommend staying away from this dental office. There is absolutely no sense of etiquette or professionalism here. The person responsible for cleaning teeth does a very poor job and shows no courtesy to patients. The lack of care and respect makes for an uncomfortable and frustrating experience. Save yourself the trouble and look for a dental practice that values both proper treatment and patient respect.

Worst experience ever. OFFICE MANAGER LINDA DID MY CLEANING. SHE IS NEITHER DOCTOR NOR HYGIENIST. I WILL REPORT TO STATE HEALTH.
