Excellent staff, I had a few things I was concerned about and let Dr. Kansal know. She gave me a great explanation! A fantastic doctor, who actually listens to their patients. Would recommend everyone to come here for their dental needs. Very satisfied how the staff and the doctor treated me.

If youre looking for a FANTASTIC dental office, this is the place. Attentive, patient centered care is the name of the game here.Special shout-out to Rene as she has been the instigating factor for the consistency with my dental visits and even at-home dental care. She is attentive, thorough, informational, and sweet as honey. She has repeatedly taken the time to explain treatment processes to me as well as been attentive to my requests for more conservative treatment plans. I cannot recommend her enough for your treatments. If I could rate her individually I would give her an 11/10. Seek her out when you go for treatment at Kernagis Dental Excellence, youll be glad you did.

The entire staff is competent, professional, caring, and concerned. Dr Richard Kernagis explained procedures and options thoroughly. Visits to a dentist are usually not any fun, but the Doctor and his staff make visits to their office as painless and pleasant as possible. I have recommended Dr Kernagis to my family and friends and will continue to do so.

This office is great, and super accommodating. My specific experience was for a Zoom whitening procedure, and I am super happy with the results. I have bleached my teeth before and can easily say this has been the best experience.My procedure & final work was fantastic. Renee completed my work, and did a fabulous job. Strong attention to detail, very considerate and concerned about my level of comfort, and overall provided a super high-level of care. She explained the procedure in detail and was very communicative through every step.I felt that while the front desk staff was very welcoming and friendly, they were also very efficient and respectful of my time.This first time I visited this office it was for an emergency, and I felt like they were just as dedicated to a high level of care for a scheduled appointment.I would highly recommend this Dr. & office.

I have been going to this dental practice every 6 months since 1996. Never once have I ever encountered an issue or problem. The staff is just lovey, friendly and professional. Lana has been my hygienist for as long as I can remember. She is retiring which makes me sad, whoever takes her place has some big shoes to fill, but I am sure they will find a great replacement. I cant imagine going to another dentist!

I had a great experience here! I havent been in to see the dentist for quite a while, Im so happy I went, Lana was full of great information, I did not realize how important taking care of my teeth was to my health, my heart and maintaining a healthy life . Im so glad I found a dental office that takes the time to take care of me. They helped lower my anxiety, were very gentle and explained my care so that I could understand without leaving confused. Thank you Dr. Kernagis for saving my tooth, I couldnt imagine losing any of my teeth.

Dr. K, and his team, are some of the nicest, most genuinely caring and compassionate people you will ever come across. Numbing never hurts and he is constantly making sure you’re comfortable. They also work with you if you’re cash pay. Extremely reasonable prices. I could go on all day about how great all of his offices are. He is by far the best dentist you will ever go to.

Love Kernagis dental! Have used them for years, so long that my son who was a kid now has his own family! They are great and help to coordinate an appointment that works for my daughter when in town. In advance of course. I’ve had crowns and cleanings done. Can’t say enough good things about them!

Review №25

I went to Kernagis to have my teeth cleaned and x-rays. In the past, I paid cash with no insurance. This time I had insurance. I heard the receptionist tell the technician that I had good insurance. I am writing this review because I questioned the technician because she used a machine that she never used before. I asked her if this was going to result in any out of pocket expense and she said no. Well that wasnt true. I am paying just as much with insurance as I paid without insurance. Im upset about that because I would not have allowed her to use the machine. Lesson learned -- new dentist.

Today was my first visit. The wait time in the waiting room was short. I was greeted warmly. The front desk ladies were very nice, pleasant and informative. I was able to get my cleaning, x-rays and consult with the doctor all at the same day. Rene was my hygienist, her personality was up beat! Her professionalism and the way she was presenting herself was just outstanding! She did an amazing job in cleaning my teeth as well!!! She was also very nice, knowledgeable, patient with all my questions and concerns. This was the first hygienist I have met who loves her job and takes a pride in her job!!! I am a very picky and thural about my teeth, health and my whole body in general, and to my judgement she did an excellent job in cleaning and educating me! Dr.Kernagis was very professional, not on a hurry to get out of the room, down to earth. He was also very patient with all my questions and took time to look at my concerns and was able to give me reasonable suggestions and advices. I feel comfortable and confident to do my treatments by Dr.Kernagis. I like the fact that this office not into surprising patients with hidden fees, they actually call insurance to verify coverage and they present it to patients before procedure. First impression was great, I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a dentist.

I have been seen by Dr. Kernagis for over 10 years and cannot express my satisfaction with his service, his office personnel and all. He is the best of the best. I just wish I had found him prior to 10 years ago. Thank you Dr. Kernagis for your outstanding service and professionalism and thank you for having such a great personnel.

My son is autistic and his teeth were a mess. From consult to end he has been made comfortable. After two 5 hour procedures his teeth look amazing. Dr kernagis studied x Rays before 2nd one and discovered how to save another tooth. An amazing artist with teeth. Due to his gentle touch my son is not afraid of office which speaks volumes

Staff is friendly and talkative but not overbearing. Both my husband and I are patients there and have been able to get appointments quickly.Wait time prior to appointment is minimal.

I cannot say that I loved it, but Kirsten and Dr. McCaffrey did their best to make it as pleasant an experience as possible today. I needed a crown put into a small space and the work went on schedule, with no complications. Im well pleased with the final result. Ive been going to the office on Busch Blvd. for several years and usually get Lana for my regular cleanings. Hope she recovers from her injury and is back at the office very soon.

I started seeing Dr. Kernagis because my teeth needed A LOT of work and I wanted to get knocked out and get it all done in as few appointments as necessary. It only took two appointments and I don’t even remember it thanks to the IV sedation. Dr. Kernagis is very nice (as is the rest of the staff) and the dental hygienists are as gentle as they can be.

I have been a patient for many years. Never have I had to wait for my appointment, the help is absolutely fabulous. I drive almost l00 miles to and from their office and as long as I am able to drive will continue to use their services. You do know, that I have a choice of many dentists in Dade City, and I just refuse to go to any of them, I think this covers it all. Best Regards, Marie Esche

Review №56

For more than 10 years (Im 24 years old now) I have been extremely self conscious of my smile and how my teeth look. Every time I would laugh I would cover my mouth without even thinking. When I was 18, my wonderful father offered to look into possibly getting some sort of cosmetic work done for me as he knew how much this bothered me and affected my overall confidence. Over the last 5-6 years, I have been to dozens of consultations with different dentists (including having an appointment to start the procedure and then cancelling the day before because I had a horrible feeling about the dentist). Dr. Kernagis was the LAST consultation that I ever had, and for good reason. On the first visit, Dr. K took the time to take x rays and pictures from all different angles and explain to me in detail the options that I had. He was so nice and patient and willing to answer all of my questions. We then set up another visit where he used the pictures from the previous visit to digitally show me what the teeth could potentially look like after Invisalign and veneers. He even took into consideration how the veneers will affect my bite, something that no other dentist I spoke to even thought about (both of these visits were completely free, by the way). I explained to him that my father would be paying for this and he does not live close by so Im going to have to call him and put him on speaker phone to explain everything. Both Dr. K and Lei the office manager were extremely patient with both me and my fathers questions, they were willing to speak with him on the phone and work with him. Ive done A LOT of research on veneers and the pricing of veneers and yes, the price was on the higher range but definitely not out of the ordinary. Not to mention, when it comes to something as important as your teeth and your smile, I would rather pay a little more for the highest quality. The entire process was so smooth and stress-free. The entire kernagis team is absolutely amazing! I had a time crunch and desperately wanted to have this done before my sisters wedding and the women at the front desk, Lei and Lori were incredible with working me into the schedule no matter what. The entire experience was amazing and Dr. K is truly an artist! I could not be happier with the results. I cannot express how this has forever changed my life. My smile is now so much bigger and brighter! I am now so confident every time I smile and I cant count how many compliments I have received! Thank you so much to Dr. K and his team, I am forever grateful!!
