Calm office with awesome lighting, very clean, very thorough staff, never rush the appointment, and they provide a lovely hot towelette after. They always keep up with the latest technology too, which is very neat to see.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As someone who has not been to a dentist for a number of years due to a phobia, Ambiance Dental has been a great experience.

Update 10 years later:  I continue to choose Ambiance Dental.  Winnie has taken care of me despite my difficult to work on teeth.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm not sure what's going on with this clinic. I'm a fairly new patient and my first couple of visits were amazing. My recent one, not so much. I was contacted by Michelle numerous times regarding changing the dentist I'll be seeing and the times of my appointment. It was quite disrespectful to have your appointment changed multiple times over. Oh then there's the appointment itself. The assistant(?) talked endlessly about nonsense and seemed so unsure about what they were doing. My appointment felt rushed and it was completely night and day from my first two appointments with Dr. Nagra, who is impossible to book with now as I was informed she reduced her hours.  It's really making me consider taking my dental care somewhere else. Disappointing.

Dr. Boychuk and her team are always friendly and have my best interests at heart. I highly recommend them!
