Real experiences

What Patients Are Saying

Every practice can say it offers gentle care. Here's what patients actually say about their experience at Anamosa Dental Associates.

  • Anamosa Dental Associates are the greatest! Very caring and friendly and especially gentle!! I’ve been going there so many years that I can’t remember how many now. I was looking for a new dentist long ago when I was helping my grandma Lena get to her appointments, and they were so very good with her that I asked if they had an appointment for me; I’ve been going there ever since and have brought family and friends into the fold. Dr. Deb Oldham is the BEST! I drive from Cedar Rapids because it is WORTH IT!!!

  • I've recently moved to the area and needed a dentist QUICK. Anamosa Dental Associates managed to get me in that day and performed a great service in relieving my tooth pain. And their cute puppies laying in my lap during the treatment didn't hurt my feelings one bit! Very unique and enjoyable dental visit! I'll definitely come again!

  • The entire staff at Anamosa Dental is kind, compassionate, and professional. I always feel welcomed and at ease throughout my visits. I recently locked my keys in the car at their office, and one of the staff members went above and beyond making calls to get me assistance. Within minutes help arrived. I am beyond grateful for the exceptional care they provide my family.
