I was one of the original patients of Dr. Tricarico when he began his/this practice, so I've been coming here for well over 30 years. When he suddenly retired, I was totally freaking out because his level of dental expertise was seriously next level incredible. A testament to his skills that he managed to keep my terrible teeth in my mouth all of these years. I was, quite frankly, scared to hand over my oral care to a new dentist. However.....Dr. Fernando, who took over his practice, has eased ALL my anxieties going forward. She is his female equal, and that is saying a lot because amazing dentists are not easy to find. But she is all of that and so much more!! My dental health has been failing miserably the past couple of years, but Dr. Ruth has gone above and beyond what any other dentist would do to accommodates all my needs. I completely trust her skills at EVERYTHING, and her skill range is very impressive. She has spared me from having to go to various other specialists for extremely complicated extractions and denture work, etc. She is an absolute perfectionist...which I love, because Dr. T. had a similar work ethic. I have a very low threshold of pain when it comes to my mouth and she always ensures that I am totally pain free. Her follow-up after difficult procedures is a great comfort. Dr. Ruth is a kind, funny and compassionate dentist and I will continue coming here for my dental work...all the way from Barrie....for as long as she can keep teeth in my mouth. Fingers crossed! Her wonderful assistant Roxanne has been there quite a while and I've known her since she worked for Dr. T. She is also a talented skilled technician and has always treated me incredibly well. Her patience with me is lovely and appreciated very much! The entire team at this dental office is exceptional and so very professional. Before I landed at this wonderful place, I suffered through many years of many dentists and second rate dentistry. It's not easy to find the right dentist, and I intend to remain loyal and thankful that this dental practice exists. My husband and other family members are also patients here and we are very happy that Dr. Fernando has stepped up to fill some very big shoes, and mouths....lol Thank you Dr. Ruth, Roxanne and the entire team. You are quite simply....the BEST!!

Dr. Fernando and her staff are wonderful. I have been coming to her for dental work and she is very thorough and very patient. She is very gentle and is always asking if you are okay during the visit. I highly recommend her. Her staff is phenomenal and very friendly. A great family atmosphere. They all make me feel comfortable and are very pleasant.

Dr. Fernando is an amazzzzzzing dentist! I went in just for a checkup on cavities etc...and ended up consulting with her about how self-conscious I am about my very crooked front teeth and my fear of braces. Dr. Fernando suggested that if I was too scared or couldn’t afford braces, she can correct my teeth aesthetically, and OMG she did an amazing job!!! She took her time to get it perfect! Her assistant Roxanne was such a sweetheart and practically held my hand and encouraged me all the way. They were both so caring, patient and knowledgeable. I have gone though my whole life hiding my smile and am thankful that I was referred to this office. Everyone in this office is so genuinely nice. I highly recommend this dental clinic to everyone. You won’t be disappointed! Thank you Dr Fernando and Roxanne!!! You guys rock!
