Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Votta really is the Best! In AUG I had 5 teeth pulled all at once! I was nervous when I arrived, but Dr Votta and his staff were extremely helpful in reducing my stress, and keeping me relaxed during the procedure. Both Dr and Technician were kind and understanding. By the time the extraction began, I felt like I was with friends rather than staff. Thank you Dr Votta and Team for such a great experience during a stressful time!!

Fabulous Surgeon! – Mar 14, 2024

Dr Votta AMAZING! Reception Unprofessional
First off, Dr. Votta did an absolutely amazing job with my husband and the surgical work my husband had done. His receptionist, another story. We provided the approval letter from our insurance company, and the insurance representative spoke to her on speaker phone telling her that this procedure was approved and she still said that it was not and we had to pay $400.00. After providing the letter and speaking to the claims representative for the verification of approval, and after asking her to call Liberty, which she refused to do, I had to call myself and use the speaker phone in order to have them tell her it was approved. She then proceeded to tell me she had to ask the doctor, left came back and said he said we had to pay it. I could not speak to the doctor which I should have insisted to show him the letter of approval. I have never ever in my years of working in the dental industry and having a physical approval letter billed any patient. Waiting for my refund.

Amazing pediatric doctor/surgeon
Dr Votta performed oral surgery on my 2, almost 3yo. We saw him for numerous visits and he was very thorough and kind while managing my child’s care. I would highly recommend him for adults and children in need of a maxillofacial surgeon. UPD in general (both surgical and dentistry dept) have been fabulous!
