What our patients are saying

Infected Broken Tooth

I woke up experiencing swelling and tenderness around a broken tooth area. Tried some self-care options that eased it but not enough. Called the office and had an appointment for the very next morning at 8:30. Staff and dentist explained everything and got the bad tooth out. It’s now a day later and I am very thankful they go me in so quickly.

Community Dental Patient

Awesome Service! Friendly, and most of all they care.

During the pandemic my tooth broke on Easter 2020 and I was in pain for three days before I gave up on my dentist. I called Community Dental. They took me right in and extracted my tooth. They were just awesome. I left there feeling 100%. They actually cared about my situation.Thank you Community Dental. I’ll be going here on a regular basis.

Community Dental Patient

High Quality Service

I love Community Dental. Highly qualified dentists and staff, courteous, friendly and professional. I wouldn’t have my teeth extracted anywhere else. The dentists are fantastic and I would highly recommend Community Dental to anyone.

Community Dental Patient

The people there are very friendly and listens to you about what Dental issues your are having with your mouth. If your in pain they actually stop and try it a different way. I wish I have found them years ago instead of three months ago.

Community Dental Rutland Patient

There are several things I like about this dental office. It’s an office with multiple dentists. They accept practically every insurance including Medicaid. They run a tight ship. They have to. They’re busy. Because they will accept so many types of insurance, they get all kinds of people, and lots of them. They make people agree to policies which include refraining from rude behavior. This protects both patience and employees. They are compassionate. They are patient, but you don’t have to be, because as long as you get there on time, they will get you in without much of a wait. No one pays full price. If you don’t have insurance, they give you a 20% discount on all services, and they do quality work. Visit them regularly, follow their advice, and your teeth will be fine. Do you want to live in a town with bad teeth? Of course not. They do dental like dental should be done. Thank you, Community Dental.

Community Dental Rutland Patient

I don’t think anyone really likes going to the dentist, however, at this point in my life, if I had to choose I would choose here. Personable, professional and make sure you are as comfortable as possible. You can’t ask for more than that

Community Dental Rutland Patient

A great team of professional staff who care about their patients. I am glad to be in Dr. Julie Pratt’s care. Thank you!

Community Dental Rutland Patient

Very professional staff, kind, and informative people.

Community Dental Rutland Patient

I have nothing but good things to say about Community Dental! From Reception to Dentist you are respected and treated with care. Dr Pratt is the best, always explaining every step and she truly understands your fears and concerns. She really tries to make your experience as pain free as possible. The Dental Assistants and Hygienists are thorough, friendly, and kind. Reception is always smiling and doing their best to accommodate you for appointments. I would recommend Community Dental and rate them 5 out of 5 stars!

Community Dental Rutland Patient

Best place ever, been going here for years. Moved away for a few yrs came back with no care done to my teeth for the whole time. Just had a check up and stays done, after yrs prior to these guys I was always having issues had teeth pulled because past dentist made a mess of my mouth. But these guys saved my teeth and never have failed me. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. These guys are the best. Treat you like a person not a number.

Community Dental Rutland Patient

Great office. All the staff is top notch! Excellent patient care! Lori was gentle, caring and explained everything.

Community Dental Rutland Patient

I was literally afraid of the dentist after having really bad experiences. The people here are extremely friendly and listen to you. They are compassionate to what makes you feel comfortable with procedures. I am no longer afraid. I actually went 2 days in a row to have procedures done. Thank you for being so patient with me. You are wonderful.

Community Dental Rutland Patient

This is the best dentist office I’ve ever been to. All so friendly and caring. Dr Pratt is wonderful.

Community Dental Rutland Patient

The office staff is typically courteous and helpful! My family is always able to schedule an appointment within a reasonable time frame. I have seen Rebecca (Hefflin) a couple of times and she is great. Ayla (Carr) really takes the time to listen and never dismisses any concerns. She goes above and beyond to make sure each patient leaves satisfied and feeling secure. She is very relatable and she has a great personality!

Community Health Mettowee Patient

I had a wonderful experience here today! I fell very ill and didn’t have health insurance. I was worried I would have a hard time finding a place to go. They got me in right away and were very efficient, professional and kind. They got me in and out quickly and now I can be on the road to recovery thanks to their help! Everyone from the receptionist to the nurses were exceptional and very welcoming. I will be going here for all my medical needs now! The fact that they let you make payments is an added bonus!

Rutland Community Health Patient

I would like to thank Dr. Lovko and her staff “the girls” for always being there for me and my mom Grace. You are the most caring and nicest people I have truly ever met. You treat us with great kindness and dignity. Thank you so much for being who and what you are.
