Riverside Dental Group At Woodcrest

This was my first time going to the Dentist in approximately 15 years. I have to admit it was a pleasant experience. I felt very welcomed and felt comfortable the whole time. Everyone was very kind and explained the procedures to me. I’ve always had a negative feel about the dentist office but today was different than my prior experiences. I’m glad I was assigned to this dental group because I was comfy despite my fear that I’ve had. I look forward to my next visit. I definitely recommend this dental office if you are looking for comfort.

The staff are awesome !!! They are very kind and sweet. Wendy is the tooth fairy !! Doesn’t look like The Rock, but she’s a great hygentist!

When I read the other review, I was shocked because my family and I like Dr. Rouhe. He takes very good care of me. I had my root canal done last week and he gave me a shot to numb me and even asked if I felt the pain when he drilled my teeth before continuing further. I said I felt it and he gave me more. I liked that he tried to connect with me by having a conversation with me rather than wanting to get me in and out of the office quickly. He was also very patient with me because my parents and I were going back and forth about doing the root canal since we’re financially struggling. He’s a great dentist.

Going for a cleaning? you’re safe. the hygienist is great for that. The office person is very nice as well. If you need work done… (Let’s just say I live about 5 minutes from here and I drive 30 minutes to my new wonderful dentist!)
I had an awful experience with Dr. Rouhe at Riverside dental group at Woodcrest and I do not wish it on anyone else!!! Examples: choking on my drilled tooth pieces, not numb enough & made to feel like I was a pest for wanting to breathe & to not feel the drill & like something was wrong with me for needing to be numbed more…, crown didn’t fit properly, I was in pain for months, went back a couple times to «fix» it. never happened., I had overheard Dr. Rouhe in the next room getting upset with another patient because the other patient said Dr. Rouhe did the wrong tooth, & he’s still hurting. Dr. Rouhe «jokingly? angrily?!» said that he wouldn’t use numbing to do the proper tooth this time!!! poor patient! poor me! I was waiting in the next room to have him «fix» my crown again due to pain… again! I left as fast as I could saying «everything felt fine. gotta go now!!!» NEVER went back! The Dr. is older and his hands are shaky as well… NOT a comfortable feeling when he’s holding a needle. or/​and a drill near your face… *shivers!!* needless to say, I do not recommend this dentist.
