"Dr. Nathoo, I was very grateful for your gentleness, patience and tremendous skill working with my dad and all his restrictions.  You are a gem! "

— Mardythe Hewitt  

“An amazing dentist who excels in reassuring their patients, and making home treatment comfortable. Although Dr. Nathoo performed complicated procedures, my dad was very comfortable - he had no pain, a pleasant experience. Dr. Nathoo showed concern for his long term oral health care and provided effective long term solutions. He hasn't had any problems since his teeth were cosmetically restored. A personal thank you for such exceptional service - including follow up service! ”
