Dentist in Orinda, CA

My wife and I have been coming here for dental care since 2015. Everyone is so friendly and makes you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in. The main hygienist, Charisma, is awesome—she’s gentle, super thorough, and always tells you what she’s doing so nothing catches you off guard. Dr. Ellis is a highly trained professional and easy to talk to, and you can tell she genuinely cares about her patients. Karen, the Office Manager, makes scheduling and insurance stuff way less stressful than it usually is. I also really appreciate the little extras like the face masks, lavender neck wraps, and massage chairs. I'll be back in a few months!

I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Ellis Dentistry! The entire staff is so amazing. Everyone is so kind, welcoming, and professional. I had an emergency appointment and they fit me in right away, which meant so much to me. I’ve been coming here for years and can confidently say this team truly cares about their patients. Dr. Ellis always does an excellent job. Nancy and Charisma are incredibly attentive and efficient, and Karen is always on top of everything and so helpful. I would absolutely recommend this office to anyone looking for amazing service and a team that genuinely cares.

I'm a new patient at Dr. Ellis' practice. My daughter went to Dr. Ellis first and recommended her to me. I had a very good experience there. Her staff were very welcoming and professional. I felt being very pampered. I had been with my previous dentist for 20 years until she retired. I plan to stay with Dr. Ellis until I can't.

I've been going to this dental clinic for almost six years now - the staff is very friendly, very professional, and very good at what they do. I appreciate the early appointment times so I can fit in a visit before work, and the one urgent dental visit I needed, Dr. Ellis fit me in right away. Karen at the front desk is always cheerful and Charisma, my hygienist, is absolutely wonderful. They keep my smile clean, healthy, and genuine.

Going to the dentist is likely not on anyone’s favorite list—I wouldn’t say I was anxious, but not excited. I don’t think I’ve ever had a more thorough, thoughtful dentist visit in my adult life. X-rays were taken - and like many dentists nowadays—the images show up immediately. (Solid Siemens equipment.) I had an opportunity to view the X-rays and ask questions (X-rays for new patients are no charge.) What followed was even better: a small, pen-like fiber-optic camera that took high resolution images of my teeth and gums (latter where my issues are). So instructive — demonstrating when my efforts at cleaning my teeth were falling a little short.

I had such a great experience with Dr. Ellis! She was so sweet, gentle, and made me feel completely at ease the entire visit. The service was wonderful from start to finish. The hygienist, Charisma, was also amazing, professional, kind, and really thorough. I couldn’t have asked for a better dental team. They even had some goodies for me because I was a first time patient! Highly recommend!

I just recently switched to Dr Ellis is office, and am so glad I did! As a new patient, I got a full office tour and was asked a slew of questions on preferences to customize my experience there. I’ve never had such a thorough onboarding! The entire staff are some of the kindest people I’ve ever met. I had a cavity attended to today by Dr Ellis and she was very attentive to my severe lock jaw and was communicating thoroughly about my comfort. Definitely recommend this office!

Dr. Ellis and her staff are truly the best of the best. I found her practice during a dental emergency four years ago and have remained a loyal patient ever since (referring my husband and a friend too who both switched over to her practice). Dr. Ellis is skilled, thorough, and kind. She truly cares about her patients and does excellent work. The staff at her practice are also warm and always super helpful. I am so thankful to Dr. Ellis and her team for taking care of my teeth these many years. Highly recommend!

The staff is super friendly and helpful. Everyone is cheerful and happy to give details of procedures and they give a great breakdown of costs before starting any work. The work they do is of fantastic quality and I'm definitely coming back for my ongoing care. I just had a filling replaced and it was an easy process with a beautiful result. Highly recommend!
