Dawson Dental Centres

All of the team from the treatment coordinators, dental assistants, hygienists and of course Dr. Gelfand are all so professional and have always made me feel at ease.

I really like their dentist. They are efficient, pleasant and personable.

I like how they can do dental work while you are asleep.

I am very grateful to you and your staff for the fantastic job you did remodeling my smile. My smile is priceless and gives me a feeling of confidence I never before experienced.

I have been pleased with this office since the first time that I phoned to inquire about becoming a patient. I like the way that they work with my benefit provider and I appreciate the knowledgable way my inquiries about additional cosmetic work were handled.

I like the friendliness of all the staff. I have have been to a few other places in the past few years, but I feel the most comfortable at your office.

Initially, I came to see Dr. Gelfand after having received your flyer in the mail. I had not seen my previous dentist for almost 3 years. I was very unhappy after having been with the same dentist for almost twenty years. I had lost several teeth over the years and almost never smiled. I called Dr. Gelfand and arranged for a consultation.

During the visit, Dr. Gelfand discussed several options with me and advised me of the cost and time involved with each option. He assured me that I could have a beautiful smile and would never have to be ashamed of my teeth again. The consult was done at no charge and Dr. Gelfand impressed me a great deal with his professionalism and his kindness. After several months, I have finally achieved the results I had hoped for and the results far exceeded my expectations. My sincere gratitude to Dr. Gelfand and the entire staff, who also made me feel welcome and treated me with the utmost courtesy and respect. I will be a patient at your clinic for many years to come and would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Gelfand and the entire staff.

About 12 years ago now, I was diagnosed with a medical condition called sleep apnea. It started with constant snoring and progressed to my stopping breathing up to 19 times an hour during sleep. Since that time, I have tried everything from CPAPs, a machine that assists in regulating breathing at night, to surgery in an effort to control this condition.

Five years ago now, I came to Dr. Gelfand, to get fitted for a dental appliance. This device allows for my bottom jaw to be moved forward slightly when the appliance is in place and increases the open-air passage during sleep. This appliance has completely stopped my snoring and has worked to stop my "stop breathing condition" to a manageable 6 times per hour.

I am 49 years old and in fairly good physical condition. For me, this device has improved my sleeping and has allowed me to lead a normal active life without the side- effects that the sleep apnea brought on.

After having my entire life of an unsightly smile, I decided in my 50's to do something about it. I took a chance and came to see the amazing group at Dawson Dental Centre. From the moment I walked in the door, I was impressed by the unsurpassed professionalism, but more so, by the extremely friendly, caring and supportive staff. This is the first time that I wasn't afraid to sit in the dentist chair!

It is a very difficult decision to make to change something as personal as your smile. It took me along time to make that decision. Once treatment starts, you hope that you have made the right decision. To trust someone with your face, your mouth, was a big issue for me. WOW! Was it worth it! My new smile is fabulous. I am so thankful to all the staff who made it possible. I just know that I am going to smile more. Thank you everyone. Thank you, thank you, thank you Dr. Gelfand.

I used to hide my smile or avoid smiling. Some of my teeth hurt, many teeth were missing. I was extremely apprehensive about starting to get work done because I knew it would take a long time. I also did not look forward to having freezing put in on a regular basis.

The staff made me feel very comfortable - let me know what to expect at each visit and "cuddled" me a bit when I felt overwhelmed. Everyone took good care of me.

Now, I smile more than I have to! I don't have thought about people looking at my ugly teeth rather than listening to what I am saying. The cosmetic part of the work was well worth all the appointments!

I just got my partial plate so I'll have to get used to it - but I'm looking forward to chewing like a person instead of all at the front, like a rabbit.

When they told me I was "finished", I had a smile from ear to ear! I'll come for regular "maintenance" but my new look should last a lifetime.

I am very grateful to you and your staff for the fantastic job you did remodeling my smile. My smile is priceless and gives me a feeling of confidence I never before experienced.

Cosmetic dentistry was not something I ever considered until my family pointed out how self conscious I seemed of my smile. I had always been one of those people who were "afraid" of the dentist, but after much convincing I agreed to come to Dr. Gelfand for a consultation. I was amazed at how patient he was with my questions and how honest he was with his answers. He took the time to explain everything to me and the clinic staff encouraged me to call with any questions. With this introduction, I knew that I was in good hands.

It wasn't until I had this new smile that I realized how much I had hidden my crooked teeth in the past. Now, I can't stop smiling and the difference it's made to my confidence level is amazing. Now I can't imagine having never done this procedure, which was a lot simpler than I had imagined and well worth the time.

The relaxed and easy going team makes you feel at ease.

The staff greet and acknowledge your arrival and the dentist/hygienist have a good chairside manner.

The dentist and their team are very personable and they have good knowledge and confidence.

Maggie is excellent and I have lots of confidence in Dr. Gelfand.

I love my dentist and all of the team! Everyone is so friendly and takes an interest in your personally. I actually really enjoy coming to see everyone and I consider the dentist more of a friend than my dentist.

As a new patient to your office, I just wanted to thank you and all of you and your staff whom I have had the pleasure of meeting so far. I applaud you for your kind and very caring services. I felt very welcomed and extremely comfortable. Indeed it has been a great transition, especially having left a dentist (who retired) that I had been to since I was a child. I hope and trust my next appointment will go so nicely, best of all pain free. I very much liked the way you explain what you are about to do as well. Thank you to all of you at Dawson Dental Centre for your great care!

I hadn't been to a dentist in 7 years when I first came to the clinic, and although my teeth were in pretty bad shape, I never felt guilted. My dentist and hygienists have always made me feel welcome and comfortable, and remember who I am!

I feel comfortable coming there - have never been able to say that before about a dentist - options are given to me but I don't feel pushed into making decisions

I love the very, very friendly team. Everyone is so efficient, and such a pleasure to see on each visit.

I never felt anxious or nervous about my visits or felt guilted by the staff for neglecting my dental health for so long.

I feel confidenet in the care I receive, good service, clean bright enjoyable office.

Dr. Leung - small wait times for appts and good 'bedside' manner for nervous patients.

Everything is explained, and I am always asked if I am comfortable during any procedure.

Dawson seems to try and stay on top of the latest treatments and methods of dental care.
