Reviews of Cataraqui Dental Centre (Dentist)

Chloe Miller

Dr. Empringham is amazing. I had an emergency dental issue and he fixed it immediately and perfectly. So grateful to Cataratqui dental.

Dan Stinson

Cataraqui Dental Centre provided me a level of service I am truly grateful for! I received prompt and professional consultation and dental care by a friendly, congenial staff. I left the office with my issues resolved and would not hesitate in recommending the facility to others.

Robert Carnell

Great staff. I've had a root canal recently and over the years a tooth extracted here as well. Always have been helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.

Zola Mehlomakulu

The team at Cataraqui Dental are courteous, prompt, and provide care second to none. Very grateful they were able to resolve a lingering tooth issue.

Nathan Compeau

Tyeson Capener-Hunt

Great staff, on time, efficient and super friendly. Thank you Sherri!

Gary Carr

Had to have years of fixing done after Dr. Holmes botched my mouth up. Didn't listen. Didn't go gentle. Didn't tell me I needed crowns. I've had multiple dentists tell me that giving me two root canals and not reccomending crowns cost me two teeth. Didn't like the place when I went. Like it less now.

Kelly Lloyd

The staff is always so helpful, and they try their best to make you as comfortable as possible. If I was being biased this rating probably would have been a four because of how bad my dental anxiety is, but that's not their fault so I'm giving them a five.

Yesterday I had an appointment for an assessment and wasn't expecting to get any work done. As it turned out I had to get my wisdom tooth pulled. This was such a great experience and had little to no pain afterwards, but of course had to take medication for the swelling that evening, an when I woke up the next day I was feeling pretty good for having a tooth pulled. Thank you so much Cataraqui Dental it was a great experience. My dentist was great and very nice I appreciate everything that was done. This is where I will always go best experience I have ever had going to make an appointment after the new year to get some more work done I would recommend them to anyone they treat you like family there

Tricia Branscombe

I've been going to Cataraqui Dental for a number of years and highly recommend them. Everyone I have come into contact with have been very friendly. Dr. Brett & Monica (my hygienist) are great - knowledgeable, friendly & efficient.

Anita Harnden

Dr. Holmes and his staff have looked after myself and my children for 20 years. I couldn't be more pleased with the level of care, concern and kindness they have shown over the years. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone!

Kate M

We have been so happy with this Dental clinic. They are kind and professional and great with our children.

Sarah Sutton

Dr Cosman is very knowledgeable and experienced with children and adults. His staff have always operated with utmost professionalism and respect. No need to fear the dentist here. Take care of your teeth and mouth, its a good part of your overall health.

Owain Jones

Very friendly and accommodating staff. They make it easy to accommodate my busy work schedule and dental needs of my three young sons

Don Norman

I've been treated by this service for more than 3 decades and I couldn't say enough good things about my experience. I attended the centre today [May 29, 2020] and the treatment I received from Dr. Patrick McDonough was wonderful! Thank you Cat Dental for taking such good care of me. Kudos to my long time dentist Dr. Gordon Lansdowne. Sincerely, Don Norman PS I forgot to mention how terrific the dental hygenist was during my appointmen. I forgot to ask for her name and I feel badly about that but let me thank you now for you wonderful service...

Esther Frost

I'm a foster parent and had an youth suddenly placed on the weekend and found out she had a new patient exam Monday. I called at 9:30 for a 3 in the afternoon appointment asking to rebook as getting her there wasn't possible given the last minute placement with me (and I was not the one who made the appointment). Not only was I told no, but I was politely told not to rebook/use their services anymore as its not allowable, even though I explained the unique situation??

Janine deSavigny-McGee

The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and professional. The service is amazing.

Josh Suppan

I recently returned to Cataraqui Dental after switching to another dentist over a year ago. I had some terrible tooth pain that wasn't getting resolved, but Dr. Cosman quickly identified the problem tooth and booked me in for a root canal. The whole procedure was very short and almost painless. My quality of life has definitely improved since having the root canal as I almost instantly had no more pain and can eat on both sides of my mouth. Thanks!

Ala'a Al-Helaili

I am a new patient with them, and my experience is not so good so far. the staff is nice and the climate of the clinic nice too. But the impression I took is that they are all about getting money out of me. I went there for a general checkup and left with a list of diagnosis and appointments. And since my first appointment of treatment I have been having a problem with my tooth. went back twice regarding that problem and no fix so far and no clear diagnosis or explanation for it. I feel frustrated.

Kingston Ontario

Great place. Has a really warm atmosphere, and the dental hygienists are all welcoming and happy, it is really a pleasure going in. They are a bit expensive, but worth the expense. Been with them for 4 years now and sofar no issues. I have had to have older fillings repaired that were done at Altima before switching over and they all turned out great.

Linda Vincent

Monica and Veronica were incredibly kind, personable & professional. Both Veronica and Monica made my son and I feel comfortable and relaxed. It was evident that they enjoyed there chosen fields and they are experts! Thank you both so much! (I have been a client for 20+ years and the service has always been great. My family and I had two appts. over the last several days and the service was so great that it lead me to write a review.)

Sean Lessard

Good job

Greg Adams

I am consistently impressed with the care and attention my family has received over the years at Cataraqui Dental. Staff are professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I recently had a very painful abscessed tooth and they went above and beyond to quickly accommodate and address the situation to provide some much needed relief. I would give them a six star rating if I could!

Alannah MacGregor

I went into this office for a cleaning , and had Monica as my hygienist. She was absolutely wonderful, very friendly and professional. I would highly recommend this office.

Blaine & April Powell

The experience was very nice. The doctor and nurse who were treating my husband were very kind and considerate. I have been telling my friends how good it was during the treatment. They have been putting patients need as first priority.

Justin Y

Dr Pat is the best.

Jasmine Bateman

My sons first visit to the dentist was a success! The staff were so kind, gentle and patient with him! It was amazing.

Garrett Tomalty

Went to see Dr. McDonough and had a great experience. I needed to have my wisdom teeth pulled and they did the surgery quickly and I have had no pain since (the surgery was yesterday morning). I don't think anyone can claim that they'll make a procedure that easy, but I'm not a big fan of having tools in my mouth and all the staff made me very comfortable!

Lora Hennigar

I had an appointment dealing with an abscessed tooth. Dr. McDonough is who I dealt with and he was great! Will be going to him from now on for all dental needs. He is very relaxed and his number one priority was my comfort. My best experience at a dentist and I had a tooth extracted :)

Deborah Myers

By far the best dental office ever!!! Dr. Empringham is absolutely amazing! He and his team are professional, very gentle and such fun!!! Dr. Cosman is also amazing! He did a dental implant for me, after I had been told by others that it couldn’t be done. Honestly, if you are looking for a dental office, call them. You will not be disappointed.

Doug Jordan

Amazing staff, friendly, informative. The Dentist was excellent, he actually cared that I was comfortable and understood everything he was doing every step. Thank you Cataraqui Dental

Dan G

I was misdiagnosed with having a cavity, then when I came in they recommended putting a precautionary/preventative filling on my tooth, which ended up not being covered by my insurance. Now, about 2 years later, the filling that was supposed to be preventative just broke off, taking out about a quarter of my tooth with it, so basically I just paid hundreds of dollars for them to destroy my tooth.

S Bing

Excellent staff I come from several hours away for their services and it's worth the time

Jeff Bruce

I've been very happy with the service and care I've gotten. Amanda is my hygienist and she is awesome. She's very friendly and professional. The staff and dentists are all very pleasant to deal with.

Woods Family

Dr.Cosman and staff are great. They take the time to answer your question and explain. My daughters ortho treatment had been amazing. Provides a friendly and clean environment.. A smile on our faces everytime we leave! Thank you for your exceptional service.

george77724

If you don't really like going to the dentist, I left my dentist office after 35 yrs and came here, very professional and courteous staff and are very friendly and understanding. I guarantee you will look forward to going to this one it has to be the best in Kingston ! You won't regret it !

Aimee McCurdy

Terrible customer service. I was a client of many years, missed one appointment and Dr. Holmes' staff told me I was not welcome to reschedule. They lost 3 clients as a result of this - myself, my son and my mom (a client of 25 years), who was also disgusted with their attitude. But they don't care about you, you're just a number to them.

Denise Ryce

I see Dr Nesbitt and she is fantastic! I just had crowns done on my 6 front teeth and she was so amazing throughout the entire process. Thank you very much for the great smile!!!

Angela Moore

Terrible dental office. They do not make you feel comfortable and both the dentists and hygienists have no idea what they are doing in regards to your care. From my experience this is one of the worst dental offices in Kingston, Ontario and should be avoided at all costs. They do not accommodate insurance very well and overcharge on their services.

zach robinson

I had an amazing experience here. I needed a lot of work and I was terrified of the dentist. The entire staff here was very kind and helped me be comfortable and at ease. Not only this but I had no coverage for dental work and they helped me find the lowest cost to some procedures and gave some things for no charge. I will go back and highly recommend them.

Michael Mulridge

I have been a patient at this clinic for more than 20 years when it was first located at the Cataraqui Town Center. I have never had a negative experience despite the fact that I am not the best patient in the world. The hygienists are awesome and really go beyond the call of duty. My current doctor. Dr. Brett is an amazing doctor with an outstanding bed side manner. He informs me at every step on what he is doing. He has a great personality and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dentist. Now despite the fact he graduated from Western ( I went to Queens) he knows his stuff and I trust him implicitly. Thank you to all the staff at this outstanding clinic for making my visits smooth and as comfortable as possible.

Renata Sabelli

Best cleaning ever!! Thank you Monica???????????? Very impressed with the place, moved from Montreal and was looking for a professional and modern dentistry place!!! Found it!!!

MaryAnne Edwards

The staff is friendly, helpful and take the time to listen and answer your questions. Even a "white knuckle dental patient" like me can relax in the dentist's chair. SO happy we found the Cataraqui Dental Centre and Dr Nesbitt. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a Dental Centre.

Warner Kinnear

Dr Cosman does great implants. Efficient and friendly.

Caroline Abraham

Dentists are great, and hygienists, not reception. They will not do direct billing, even for military who has been a patient there for several years. Find another dentist, as most are accommodating, but this place is not.

Gene Graham

I was the little girl who could not wait to go to see my dentist who I considered to be my friend! I still cannot wait to go to see my dentist, Dr. McDonough and his incredible team and fellow dentists, over 40 years after my wonderful childhood experience. From the minute I walk through the entrance to the clinic, to my departure, I am given kindness and care especially during these challenging times. My family were involved in the dental profession and still are. I have high standards for dental care. Thank you again, Dr. McDonough and EVERYONE at Cataraqui Dental Centre. Please stay safe. Eugenie Graham

Scott Rushton

Great people and service

Tamara Cordeiro

Great service. Everyone here is lovely, lots of smiles! Provides reminder calls about appointments and they have an area specifically for kids - they are great with the kids! Back entrance can be used for exiting after surgical procedures so you aren't going by people when you're all groggy post procedure.

Lynn MacQuarrie

Dr. Cosman was too busy watching the news on the T.V. in the patient treatment room to be aware of and treat my dental issues properly. I brought a large chunk of my tooth that fell off to show him and he was not immediately able to discern where on my teeth it came from?? When Dr. Cosman was on holidays I called in about concern over my impacted tooth. The office replied that he was away for an extended period of time for family issues which was understandable yet never offered any help for my issue from another resident dentist, leaving me in pain for an extended period of time. All worked out for the best as I left their office for good and am extremely happy with the support, caring, and very professional service of Dawson Dental!
