Lorese G Vandemark, DDS

Such a great experience here. The staff and Dr V really take their time to make sure you are satisfied with all services. Only place I will go from now on.

They are the BEST dental office in Modesto. Hands down. Always pleasant and professional. My child is no longer afraid of going to the dentist and it is because of the quality of care this office delivers. Highly recommended.

I would like to give Dr. Vandemarks office a huge THANK YOU for all that they do!
We have been going to his office for more then 11 years.
Let me start by saying that I have had some bad luck with dentists in the past while growing up. I use to require gas just to calm my nerves. I even started out in Dr. V’s office getting gas for the first couple if visits until I realized I really didn’t need it. I usually require more numbing medicine then some and after the first time or two, I never had to remind him. Dr. V is a great Dentist and always makes me, along with my boys at ease. He has a great chairside manner with his patients and his technique for giving injections is wonderful. If you fear the dentist, this is a place you can feel at comfortable. Let me be honest, I have suggested that maybe if he wasn’t so good, my boys would fear getting a filling and stop eating sugar all together. He has been my boys only dentist and they trust him completely and are fearless when getting into his chair.
We have had a couple of emergencies in the last few years so I have had my shed of tears in his office. His office staff is wonderful, and always accommodating in whatever way they can be. They are a great staff that Dr. V is lucky to have. Most of them have been there since I can remember, it says a lot about the office as a whole. Our most recent emergency came with my 11 year old son. I received a call that he had a scooter accident at the skate park and that he had lost his two front teeth, his adult teeth, I was scared as to what I was going to see after this call, in the meantime I called into the office to let them know what had happened, the office was actually close to closing hours and they were able to fit my son in. When my son was brought home, I was completely shocked by what I saw, he was scared to death, and truthfully so was I. I knew in my heart that I could trust Dr. V’s treatment 100%. When we got to the office, the ladies took Kobe back immediately and at that time, I actually lost it because I was so scared to hear what this meant to my son, with his 6^th grade graduation coming up, all these thoughts were running through my head. The staff cleaned him up and got to work. While I waited, I was in tears and was being comforted and assured he was going to be ok. Its tough when your child is so scared that he is going to be «ugly» for his graduation, and his beautiful teeth are missing and his mouth is a bloody mess, not something I wanted to see. Because of the professionalism of the office, and the quality of work Dr V does, I wouldn’t have wanted to go anywhere else. Luckily my sons teeth were able to be bonded back together (thankfully some kids picked up his teeth and sent them home with him) Today, nobody can even tell. Dr. Vandemark did a fabulous job! THANK YOU TO DR. V AND HIS WONDERFUL STAFF, WE ARE FOREVER GRATEFUL! I hope your office sees this ッ
**Please be sure to look at a photo I have added showing 3 photos of that day and the last pic on the bottom right, is of his teeth a week later. My son is very happy with his smile and so is his mother ッ **

Being a Modesto resident for over 30 years, Dr. V was not our first dentist, however he will definitely be our last. My family has been patients of Dr. V’s for 10 years now, and I will never go anywhere else! To say that, «Dr. V is a great dentist…» is not enough to describe the services and professional treatment that he and his staff has to offer their patients. Their primary strength is their ability to take even the most frightened patients (my family was PETRIFIED to see the dentist), and make them feel comfortable… not an easy task to accomplish considering we used to literally TREMBLE in the dentist chair! Each one of us can now walk into the dentist office knowing, without a doubt, that we have nothing to be afraid of. Dr. V’s communication skills and «chair-​side manner» is like no other dentist. He continues to impress my 11 year old son, which is what prompted me to write this review for other families who might be looking for a family dentist. He takes care of all ages! My son had a toothache recently, and he was terrified to go in but knew he had to. He left the office saying, «if Dr. V can do THAT without me feeling anything, I will never be scared of him again!». Any mother knows, those words make you realize you are seeing the right professional for your family. Throughout the last 10 years, Dr. V and his staff have provided us with a multitude of services, such as; orthodontics, fillings, abstractions, routine cleanings, and more! We’ve even had a weekend sports emergency, which was handled & taken care of immediately, beginning with a triage phone interview! The old saying is, «it starts at the top…», and this is very true for Dr. V’s office because his professional manners travel throughout each and every one of his staff members. It is obvious they enjoy their work environment. I think that says it all. If you are looking for a new dentist, look no further, you will be so glad that you have chosen Dr. V for your dentist!

My kids (ages 15 and 17) have gone to Dr. Vandemark since they were little. The office staff is always very nice and professional and Dr. Vandemark is so kind and patient. Although we moved to Turlock, we will defintitely keep driving to Dr. V’s office for dental services.

We as a family have been going to Dr V for years! My boys have been going since they were 3 years old, now at 12 & 14, they wouldn’t want to go any place else. He is the best!!! He did great orthodontics for my oldest son as well! We love him & his office staff very much!

Dr. Vandemark is amazing with children as well as adults. We very much appreciate his ability to entertain /​distract our children as he performs quality dental work. He does great orthodontic care; we have seen two kids through braces under his care and are so pleased. The hygienists are great which can make or break an experience. Prices are reasonable and competitive. Highly recommend.
