The staff at Finger Lake Dental in Palmyra, NY, are excellent. It was my first visit, and I felt comfortable and confident about the service I was given. My appointment was for 8am, yet I got there at 7:45am and I was taken straight back into my appointment. I highly recommend this facility.
- Marie M.
I have a lot of anxiety surrounding dentists and this is the most comfortable I’ve ever felt at an appointment. Thorough, they take time to explain everything to you in detail so you actually understand what is going on and what needs to be done, and address any concerns you might have. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a new dentist.
- Amanda H.
It is a happy place to be considering the reasons you're there. Everyone is so nice and caring and thoughtful. They all make conversations. Enough to make you feel comfortable. I decided right away that I would be going back.
- Lynn L.
The staff at the Palmyra office of Finger Lakes Dental are always friendly and welcoming. They truly go out of their way to make sure the patient is comfortable and every question or concern is addressed.
- Tracy G.
My son and I both had our first appointments with FLDC in Palmyra today and they were amazing! I've had a lot of work done over the years by various dentists and am confident this group is capable of taking care of our teeth. My 7yr old previously had a bad experience elsewhere so it speaks volumes to me that he was calm and cooperative. Thank you so much!
- Melaine R.
This was our first time visiting Finger Lakes Dental, Naples and we were beyond impressed! No wait time and everyone was so friendly. The dentist and assistant were fantastic with my daughter and explained everything they were doing. We have finally found a dentist office that we really like!!
- Stephanie P.
I had an absolutely AMAZING experience while getting two resin fillings today, all thanks to the wonderful Finger Lakes Dental Care team. Dr. Morgan and Assistant Pam made my time with them a joy...which typically is not a phrase coined with dental procedures! The team ensured my comfort and exhibited care that is unmatched. Keep up the amazing work!
- Aubrey O.
My husband said it was very clean and up-to-date on tech. VERY PLEASED WITH STAFF and DOCTOR. THANK YOU! He gets nervous going to the dentist. They made him feel at ease. That means a lot to me.
- Jennifer J.
I was very pleased with my cleaning today. My teeth are sensitive and the hygienist was extremely gentle, yet thorough. She listened to my issues and was attentive to my concerns. The doctor who examined me gave me her time and patience making feel very comfortable.
- Hollis R.
Everyone here is amazing. Just left my first appointment with the Naples branch and it was a great experience. My tech was a very skilled and proficient army vet. The ultrasonic pic is way better than the normal scraping and crying internally. It also leaves your teeth cleaner than ever. Bonus that Caruso's is right across the street with Omega bagels.
- Phil L.
So happy with the service. Christen my hygienist was great. She answered all questions, gave me helpful information about me overall dental health, and never made the process feel rushed. She was so friendly and very gentle with teeth cleaning. Office was clean and inviting. This practice took the shame and anxiety out of the dental care. Schedule my whole family for their future visits. Great local practice with a few locations if you need more times for scheduling visits. Thank you Finger Lakes Dental for a great experience.
- Jessica V.
I was so impressed with everyone at Finger Lakes Dental Care of Henrietta. Kristine, my dental hygienist, not only did an amazing job with my cleaning, but answered all my questions and made me feel right at home.

I had been avoiding the dentist for years. I have always been scared and anxious about it. Started going to Finger Lakes Dental a few years ago and have never regretted it. I love my hygienist Kristine. In fact, I live in Canandaigua but drive to the Henrietta office just for her. She is patient and kind. Never makes me feel bad about my nervousness. You will not regret going to any of their offices for dental care. They truly have helped me.

Amazing experience. Friendly staff. Very informative and knowledgeable doctor. Very clean facility with TVs to watch, which I enjoy. Overall one of the better or maybe best experiences I’ve had at a dentist in my life.
- Katie
They have an excellent crew in there! My sons appointment was at 730 am. Everyone was wide awake and friendly as usual. The woman that put my sons braces on is professional, very energetic, and friendly. She doesn’t make mistakes and always explains what is going on. We love her! Dr. Jason is a beast. No games no horseplay straight to the point and professional. He will answer any questions you ask without nonsense and I like that. I am very happy they are taking care of my sons teeth.

I am so impressed and over the moon happy with the service and the great people I dealt with today. Going in with a broken denture expecting the worst and got the best news when they could and would fix it with a one day window. I could not ask anymore from any one. Thank-you so much.

As a new patient to this practice, I had an exceptional first experience! The receptionists were friendly, helpful, and patient as we navigated setting up my account. Renee was my hygienist, and she was excellent! Renee was friendly and thorough, and I felt respected and cared for. I have some particular apprehensions when it comes to my dental care, and Renee worked with me and worked around my quirks. I met Dr. Ali during my first visit.
