Rifkin Dental

I’ve always had a fear of the dentist and hygienist. I don’t anymore. They took a lot of patience in helping me by explaining each step and allowing me to explain my fears. They are so gentle when they work on you. They discuss everything before they do it and constantly ask if you’re OK being very aware of my emotions with being there. Now I’m very comfortable going and I know I’m getting the best care ever. Thank you all.

I couldn’t be happier with the care I’ve recently received from Rifkin Dental of Carmel. Bree was so helpful getting me an appointment right away. Being in pain, this was greatly appreciated! Everyone there was professional and put me at ease immediately. Dr. Kanajilal and Sara work well together, and do a great job. Bree, the hygienist is gentle and does your cleaning pain free. The front desk girls are helpful with your billing questions and scheduling. If you’re looking for a dental office that is up on the latest technology and can easily get the job done, I highly recommend Rifkin of Carmel. Thank you! Michelle Knickerbocker

The office staff and dental staff are great. They are very personable and make you feel comfortable. I think my comfort level was very important to them. They made it a great experience for me.

I have always been a nervous patient at the dentist office. But, this place is amazing. From the dental assistant, to the dentist to the hygienist to the receptionist, all of them were kind and friendly and discussed everything with me. They were helpful, informative and had great personalities! I felt so comfortable, taken care of and I honestly feel great about going back. It was also easy and quick to get an appointment. If you’re looking for a great dentist don’t hesitate to contact them!

Excellent office staff, Bri the hygienist was absolutely amazing . Thorough, informative and took her time to explain situation. Dr K was professional yet easy to talk to, worked up a dental plan that was in MY best interest.
2 thumbs up!!

My 2.5 year old had a wonderful first experience at the dentist with Dr. Patel! She was extremely gentle and warm with my daughter and spent time making her comfortable before doing the exam. The office staff were very kind as well. The waiting room had some toys and the exam room had Bluey playing on the tv which was a great distraction for my daughter, plus they had a little box of prizes to choose from at the end of the exam, making it a wonderfully kid friendly office overall. I highly recommend Rifkin Dental and Dr. Patel!

Another great visit. Dr. Patel and Sarah are a great team. They are very gentle and caring and both explained everything as they went along. Always concerned about my comfort.

Great office. Staff extremely friendly and professional. Dr. Patel was very thorough and explained everything clearly. Best dental experience EVER!!!

I am happy that a friend referred me to Rifkin a few years ago. They have taken good care of me since from cleanings to crowns. They ensure your comfort level. My hygienist, Bri, is amazing. Would recommend if you are looking for local dental services.

Very pleasant experience (all things considered). Dr Patel was very professional, as was his assistant. In this day and age where customer service has pretty much gone down the drain, it is refreshing to occasionally run into an organization like this that genuinely cares about your satisfaction.

I didn’t go to a dentist for 6 years after a couple of bad experiences elsewhere, yet the doctors and staff at Rifkin have somehow transformed going to the dentist into a pleasant experience for me! They go out of their way to make their patients feel comfortable and welcomed, and everyone is kind and fun to talk with. I never feel rushed and am always well-informed. I recommend this office to everyone I know!

3/6/24- Recently I went for a cleaning and once again the office personnel are very friendly and helpful.
Bri who did my cleaning is so very professional and listened to all my concerns, did an excellent job! She is so personable! 😃
I’m so glad to have finally found an Excellent Dental Office locally. It makes my life easier!

The staff was excellent and got me in during an emergency. They worked hard to relieve the pain and take care of my situation. Truly appreciate them!

I am very happy and grateful for the service that I received today from the Rifkin Dental Team. Great, professional and friendly service. Everyone made me feel welcome . I will highly recommend them.

Very friendly. Everyone from desk to Dr K, Bri and Sara. Thank you for making me feel welcome. I appreciate how kind everyone was. And the text reminders for current and upcoming appointments... Very helpful. Bri always plays the best music!

Hygienist Bri and Dr. Kanjilal are the best. They take their time, explain everything step by step, they really listen. Every one is very friendly and professional. The office is clean and welcoming.

This was my first time coming to Rifkin dental and having had bad experiences before at the dentist I was very anxious but must say the whole staff made me feel welcome and put me at ease as soon as I arrived this was the best experience ever thank you all..

The place was good and I am glad they went over every thing thoroughly . Both the assistant and the dentist that was in charge was nice

Brought my 2 year old son in for his first dental appointment. He is not a fan of the doctor so i was expecting him to be excited about the dentist. The young lady at the front desk was really nice and greeted us immediately after we entered the office. My son ran over to the area where they have toys and books for kids. We were called back right away and no surprise he cried the entire time. Dr. Patel and the dental assistant were so patient with him and didn’t force him to do anything he did not want to do. Dr. Patel answered all my questions and offered helpful tips on how to ween my son from the pacifier. After his visit he was able to choose an item from the treasure chest. He also was given a lollipop and a little “swag bag” of dental hygiene products. Also, i was sent a link to fill out all the patient info and upload my insurance card which helps save time when getting to the office because there was nothing that needed to be done when i arrived. Definitely a practice i will continue to come to. Going to make an appointment for myself soon. it’s nice that they have a dentist for the whole family. it makes dental appointments so convenient. Overall a great experience!

Excellent service. All the staff is respectful, cordial, willing to assist and answer all questions you may have. Overall it was a great and positive experience. Highly recommend.

I was very happy with my experience. Everyone in the office was professional and thorough, all of my needs were met.
