Meet Lajja Patel, DMD
“I wish there were more stars to give. Dr. Patel was really professional and informative. She empowered me with knowledge on next steps and always checked in with me during my cleaning. I really enjoyed meeting Dr. Patel and her team. I typically am so afraid of dentists, the sound of those tools just freaks me out but I felt at ease and really had a great time getting to know Dr. Patel. The cherry on top for me was the handwritten note with a very nice gift that I received at the end of my visit.”
