Patient Testimonials
Salmon Creek Family Dental is fantastic. Let me just say I was extremely nervous seeing a dentist as it had been a while. I cannot express enough just how friendly, professional, and welcoming this dentist office is. The staff is phenomenal and polite, and Dr. Nelson himself is just fantastic. He was very gentle with my sensitive teeth, updated me what he was doing frequently, and answered any questions I had. I have had a fear of the dentist for many years but this place is like finding an unknown gem of a restaurant that you only want to tell your close friends about! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a new dentist!
Sean N. 10/06/2020After not going to the dentist in too long, I was very nervous to return. Salmon Creek Family Dental made this experience stress-free and even enjoyable. Everyone I interacted with made sure to explain what was happening, what would happen next, and why each action was being performed. They answered all my questions with kindness and understanding. I'm actually looking forward to my next visit!
Tasha L. 10/01/2020I visited Dr Nelson and his team for my initial exam as we just moved to this area. The first thing that caught my eye on the search was the CEREC capability. This is the ONLY way to get a crown. One visit and done. The entire staff at this office is very pleasant and knowledgeable. From the initial appointment phone call, xrays, and exam. Dr Nelson is very patient and does not rush. He explains every step and finding. The front desk went over my insurance info so there will be no surprises. I'm very pleased to have found a terrific dental office!
Larry R. 9/29/2020Dr. Nelson has put together a great staff. Friendly, professional, helpful. From the initial greeting at their front desk, your time in the chair with the hygienist or Dr. Nelson, to scheduling of your next appointment, they run a first class operation. Highly recommend Salmon Creek Family Dental!
Jakk B. 6/28/2020Everyone in this office is so kind and caring. They give me great feedback on the best way to take care of my teeth. They are always there when you need them and are willing to help in any way they can. I highly recommend Dr. Nelson and everyone at his office if you're looking for a dentist or thinking about switching from your current dentist.
Teresa Z. 2/28/2020We had just changed insurance through my work, and I had to locate a new dentist quickly because I had an abscessed tooth. I have an innate fear of all things dental, so this was a daunting prospect for me. I was pleasantly surprised at how kind and accommodating the folks at Salmon Creek Family Dental were, and Dr. Nelson is amazing. He's got the best bed-side manner I've seen in a dentist in a very long time. They put me right at ease. I highly recommend them!
Michelle S. 1/28/2020I must admit, I hate having to go for a visit to a dentist. But Dr Nelson and his wonderful staff make this an "almost" enjoyable. Seriously, the compassionate care and the expertise experienced is exemplary. Dr Nelson is very fair in his business practices which I truly appreciate. That says alot about the kind of business he manages.
Paul D. 1/28/2020Really enjoy this practice. Between two jobs and school I’m pretty bad at procrastinating my own care, and even though they’re booked out a ways they make it possible for me to get in as soon as possible, even if we have to break up my appointments to get everything done. Staff are courteous and lovely. Highly recommend.
Shelby S. 1/28/2020Dr. Nelson and the whole staff are helpful, understanding and responsive to the patients' needs and requests. I always feel welcome and appreciate their professionalism. I especially like how they share exam results and provide feedback of progress, or lack there-of, over time and suggestions for improving my dental health and preventative behaviors.
