First experience at this office and I have to say, one of the best experiences I’ve ever had with a dental provider. Excellent service and communication throughout the entire process. I’m not a fan of dental work, but they put me right at ease and made this procedure as stress free as possible. I would highly recommend this office for any dental work you may need. My thanks to Laura and Dr.Wilburn for their expertise.

Best dental experience I’ve ever had! Everyone was so friendly, and the office was clean and pretty. My hygienist, Taylor, explained everything she did and communicated very well. She cleaned my teeth thoroughly and gently, so there was almost no discomfort. The dentist even gave some helpful tips on how to continue to improve my dental health. Highly recommend coming here for dental care.

I was greeted by such a delightful person when I arrived(. Sorry I did not ask her name)but she made me smile! Her warmth and sweet disposition ( told myself was a rare find)was enough to start my day off right! Ashley took me back right away, she was kind and professional and took care of my appointment in total! She even asked me about the cruise I went on! Truely interested and listened to my stories! It made my visit to the dentist painless!Still no new teeth yet but at least she was able to get the caps off!

After not going to the dentist in a while. The hygienist Taylor made my visit very pleasant. She was thorough in explaining things every step of the way! The facility was clean and beautiful and each exam chair was in a separate room with doors for privacy.

I had a great experience today, after driving to the wrong location (my bad) they still fit me in to the schedule. Taylor was wonderful, she still took all of the time and care even though I was late, and was truly delightful!

I’m a 76 year old veteran who has experienced many dental procedures. Yesterday I had a cleaning by Taylor at Drake Dental in Portage. I can’t emphasize what a great hygienist Taylor is. She is caring and considerate of all of my fears. I totally recommend her.

Taylor the dental hygienist was amazing! I always have anxiety during procedure and cleaning at the dentist and she made sure I was comfortable and the Nitrous Oxide was fitting and working well! I would highly recommend her every time!! Ladies at the front desk were professional, very polite and caring too!

Drake Dental has been one of the best dental practices I have found. Each doctor truly cares about your oral health and they are knowledgeable in their field of study. They have been great with my family of all different ages. I have finally found my dental home!

More fun than a root canal! Seriously part of my treatment was to get a root canal from a place down the street. Not fun. Nothing against the root canal guys. But the closer you get to the front of your mouth...I hate dentists only because sometimes the needle hurts like hell. Get the nitrous its 20 buck and worth it. I have probably 20 grand in my mouth. Dont lie take care of your teeth or at least be honest. I have 30+ years of PTSD and dont like anything. I dont like violations of my personal space. It its required or die from it. Get over it. Go here. Trust me. I have a back crown coming up from grinding. They dont judge. My cleaning is in February. I'll be there and I hate it. Hate like hate hate, but I'll keep the appointment. I'll be getting the crown.

The Drake Dental staff is wonderful and knowledgeable!! They always address my concerns and make sure I am happy with my treatment. Same day crowns are absolutely awesome and save me time by not requiring me to schedule a return visit! Would 10/10 recommend!!

I’ve been going to this office for a couple of years now & it’s honestly the best dentist office I’ve ever been to. Dr. Welburn is so attentive, kind, and she really goes above and beyond for her patients! I always feel comfortable when I visit & the entire staff is welcoming and pleasant.Taylor, RDH, however, is my absolute favorite hygienist! I just had my yearly cleaning & it didn’t even feel like it. She was both gentle, thorough and helped my appointment go by with ease. My mouth feels amazing! They are so professional and I’ve already referred my family & friends to this office lol if you’re not going here, just make the switch!

Dr. Allen across town scared me as a child (there’s nothing wrong with him lol) so I moved practices when Dr. Duffy when she started her own. Have been with her ever since (~18 years). She is a gem and her staff is nothing but kind and helpful.Edit: one huge downside, practice does not take state/gov. insurance; I had to find a new dentist after 26.

On 18 April I had a tooth pulled. I dreaded it because most of my past dealings with a dentist has been painful to say the least. But at this appointment I felt no pain at all. Dr. Vanderburgh did an exceptional job. He and his staff made every effort to insure my comfort. My thanks to all of the drake dental south staff for their care.

My family and I have been coming to Drake For over a decade and we drive an hour to get there. My daughters and I seriously look forward to our appointments!The office itself is beautifully designed with top notch technology. Unlike My past experiences at other dentist offices-with outdated tools and painful cleanings, my experience at Drake is night and day. They even fixed a filling on my daughter that a past dentist did!What truly sets this place apart is the fact that it's female-owned and run.Dr. Katherine is so knowledgeable and has a gentile approach. I always know I’m going to get the best care.If you're looking for a place where you'll get top notch care look no further. Trust me, you won't regret it.
