Reviews & Testimonials for General & Family Dentistry Services in Clifton Park, NY

I needed a problem visit and they got me in quickly without even being an established patient. Dr. Felpo was thorough, communicative and gentle. I will never go anywhere else. Highly recommend! More

My first time there was very positive. The front desk staff were welcoming, the dental hygienist was gentle but thorough, and the doctor was cordial and competent. It's a stress-free environment. Warmly recommended. You'll be glad you chose this office. Go every six months - never put it off! Your teeth are a terrible thing to waste. More

Let’s be honest, who likes going to the dentist? Not me! But Dr Ruckert makes the appointments as pleasant and comical as a dental appointment can be. I had previously been told by another’s dentist I needed thousands of dollars of work done. Dr Ruckert showed me my imaging and explained what really needed to be done and why which was very little work. He gained my trust at that point. The staff is truly welcoming. It’s a very easy going atmosphere and you can tell the staff genuinely likes working together. You can hear the giggling between coworkers which is a comforting feeling when you’re about to have a pair of them working together on your mouth. :) More

Exceptional dental care! They are professional, attentive, and create a welcoming environment. From routine cleanings to complex procedures, their expertise and friendliness make each visit a positive experience. Highly recommended! More

Visited CP Family Dentistry for the first time for a routine appointment-X-rays, cleaning, etc. Linda was my hygienist and she is the best! No pain and ALL gain! My teeth look and feel great and she’s careful not to make you uncomfortable! I highly recommend! More

I’ve been going to Clifton Park Family Dentistry for over 6 years and never had a bad experience! All the dentists and hygienists always make me feel cared for and listened to! More

I absolutely love this place! Dr. Ruckert has made me feel comfortable going there - something I never thought would happen when going to the dentist. I just had a cleaning with Joelle yesterday and she was fantastic. She was patient and gentle with me and super friendly. I am so comfortable with this place, that when my insurance changed and they no longer take my insurance- I pay out of pocket with their plan. More

Excellent visit again, such a clean and friendly place! More

I'm proud to call Dr. Kavanagh my dentist. I started going to him as a fearful patient, who had horrible experiences with dental work. He calmed my fears, ensured that I was pain free every step of the way, and did a seamless job fixing my dental issues. The entire staff is kind, gracious and helpful, and even celebrated with me when I had my final cavity filled! I highly recommend this office. More

I love this dental office. They are very timely with appts.. The staff is friendly and helpful. And Dr. Kavanaugh is a miracle worker! I had a dental procedure that was done before I realized it was started. He’s gentle, and thorough. I highly recommend this office if you’re looking for a new dental office. More

I love everyone here! They're all so nice, and they do a great job! 🙂 More

Everyone from the front desk to the dental hygienist and the dentist were all very kind, polite and helpful. The entire experience was positive. Thank you. More

The entire staff are amazing, from checking in, through the entire procedure to scheduling my next appointment. They treat you like family. I have recommended them to my family and friends. More

I hadn’t been to the dentist in a couple years and had a great experience here. After a cleaning, x-rays and getting my cavities filled, the sensitivity that was bothering me is gone. Just had my second cleaning, my hygienist Megan was excellent and so friendly, and I finally feel like my teeth are in good shape! More

New to the area and scared of finding new doctors. Had a dental emergency. From the moment I called yesterday, the quickness of getting in to see the Doctor... Wonderful people. I walked in and THEY HAVE AN OFFICE DOG, on the TV was funny animal videos playing. BEST OFFICE EVER . I knew immediately that i was in the right place. Can't wait to return for a "normal" appointment. I can not begin to say how wonderful everyone and everything is. Thank you so much for making my day so much better. More

Very welcoming office and staff. Very compassionate about the concerns of you as a patient. Provided education and knowledge about oral hygiene, procedure methods and preventative care. More

I’ve been going here since I moved to Clifton Park and I have been thrilled with the level of service, cleanliness and communication with all staff members. Now my whole family goes here. Wouldn’t go anywhere else if you’re looking around. More

Everyone is super friendly and totally understand their job. After my cleaning, they found a few bad teeth and fillings are now needed...found early and that saves a lot of trouble down the line. Best dentist around More

I’m not a fan of the dentist but I’ll make an exception for Clifton Park Family Dental. I get my teeth cleaned 4 Xs a year and Megan does a great job. No pain and spotless teeth. Sweet person with a great personality helps put you at ease. I highly recommend this office if you have a dental phobia like I do. More

I have been a patient of Clifton Park Family Dentistry for nine years. Megan is a great hygienist and the practice has great dentists too. I would highly recommend CPFD. Scott Ziter More

Megan THEE Hygienist. 😊 Best in the business . Ask for her! More

The hygienist Sara was awesome. More

After over 10 years of receiving professional dental services from Clifton Park Family Dentistry, I remain very happy with their overall services. Just yesterday, my cleaning was another positive experience. Sincere thanks to everyone that provides exceptional services and friendly smiles at their offices. More

I’ve been seeing my hygienist, Linda, for a few years and she is wonderful! I’ve seen several different doctors there and they’ve all been kind and informative. When I have a “poor” report because my flossing was less than ideal, they never make me bad, just encourage me to make better choices. Highly recommend this practice. More

Great attention to detail from all staff in this busy office. Only once did it feel way too rushed with my cleaning. All other visits have been great. More

Murad and Dr K were fantastic. The receptionist was outstanding as well. Such customer service treatment is lost in many practices, but NoT this one. Murad is a natural with people. And he knows his stuff. Dr K is a keeper. He is thorough , but very personable as well. This was the best experience I had in years! More

Tooth cleaning was very nice. More

I have been to Clifton Park Family Dentistry about 3 to 4 times in the past 6 months. Due to dental emergencies, I find them to be excellent, the doctor and staff are very helpful and pleasant. They explain everything and also are willing to reach out to insurance companies to see what will be covered before they start the work More

CP Family Dentistry has a friendly and attentive staff. We also had no problem getting an appt when tooth emergencies happened. More

Great experience as always!!! I actually lost a filling last week, but didn’t know when I would be able to get it repaired. Fortunately, I had a cleaning scheduled for this morning and they were able to replace my filling after my cleaning! They are a fantastic practice!!! Thank you! More

My visit was very good. The cleaning was very thorough and the worker was very professional. Thank You. Allan More

My dental hygienist, Megan, is so very personable and positive. She listens and takes her time. Love the time she spends with me! More

I had been going to the same Dentist for 20 years and recently made the switch to Clifton Park Family Dentistry due to my previous Dr. retiring. I didn't really know what to expect for my first appointment/cleaning here but from the moment I walked in the door until I left, my experience was unlike any other dental visit I've had! Megan was my hygienist and did an amazing job. She is super friendly and you can tell she loves her job! She was incredibly thorough in explaining my X-rays and took her time to answer all of of the questions I had. The overall cleaning was very quick and both Megan and Dr. Kavanaugh were very gentle during the exam. I left feeling very happy and couldn't wait to tell my family and friends about this wonderful experience. Just sad I waited this long to try a new dentist!!!!!!! More

Went if for new patient visit. Atmosphere was relaxed and clean. State of the art xray machines. Tech and the Dentist were very nice to talk to. Would definitely recommend this dentist office. More

I was and am still kind of apprehensive about going to a dentist, especially after the trauma of the last place I was at. Clifton Park Family Dentistry totally took care of any fears and apprehension I had. The front office staff is just simply amazing with the ease of scheduling and the friendliness of each front end staff, just awesome people all around. The Dental Hygienist, both Megan & Courtney are both just simply amazing both so Professional and courteous. They definitely made me feel comfortable and at ease. Dr's Ruckert & Kavanaugh are also amazing dentist and very nice, calming and professional. If you're looking to see a new dentist for yourself or children, trust me this is the place. All dentist facilities should be modeled after these guys!!!!!!!!!!!!! More

Dr Ruckert is outstanding: professional, practical, caring and compassionate. Hygienist Linda is exceptional and is very thorough, observant, and a caring professional. Front end staff is top notch! Great team. More

Everyone one is very friendly and professional. Specifically Megan is the best dental hygienist! Very upbeat and sincere about a positive patient experience. Christian R is very attentive and has a great sense of humor and makes you feel at home. He had done 4 crowns for me and all went well. More

Excellent dental practice. Megan did my routine teeth cleaning. She was professional, knowledgeable, personable and very gentle. I would highly recommend Clifton Park Family Dentistry! More

This place is great!! Coming from someone who always skipped the dentist appointments growing up! Now, I look forward to my next appointment. Meghan is Awesome!!! As well as the rest of the staff. Highly recommend checking it out! Brendan More

Everyone here is so friendly and they do a great job. My RDH Megan rocks! More

Another great experience at Clifton Park Family Dentistry. Couldn’t ask for a better hygienist. Megan is very professional and friendly. Highly recommend this practice. More

My family of 4 have been coming to Clifton Park Family Dentistry for about 14 years and have always had wonderful hygenist and dentists! More

I had my teeth cleaned by Murad after not visiting the dentist in awhile and it was the best experience I’ve had at a dental office. He was kind and understanding! More

Great dentist! Very thorough and courteous. Excellent staff. It had been 2 years since my last cleaning and this was a new patient visit to this dentist because of the pandemic. After my initial consultation, initial exams, and X-rays, they set me up for my requested cleaning. Cleaning went very well. Murad did a great job with my cleaning and always made sure I was comfortable. He took the time to explain things and ask if I had questions. Overall excellent. More

Today for the first time Murad cleaned my teeth. He did such a wonderful and professional job. He was personable and very informative. I have never had a hygienist give me the detailed information on my teeth and explained what I could correct. Hope to have him every time I go for my cleaning. Thank you Murad. Staff and Dr Kavanagh are friendly and take time to be personable with you. More

Very pleased with the care that my family has received over the years. More

I had my teeth cleaned by Murad this morning. He was personable and incredibly kind! We talked about school and hiking! He genuinely cares about the patients he sees! Stephanie at the front desk is always a gem! Love these people! Wish I could see them more often! ❤️ More

Great people and service More

All of the staff here is excellent! As someone who is a little timid with dental work, the staff always is able to keep me calm. Dr Ruckert, Megan, Courtney and Stephanie are amazing! More

I’ve been coming here for years, Saw Courtney and Dr. Ruckert today and the service was great as usual. Everyone in the office is extremely Pleasant and easy to work with. I can’t recommend a dentist more highly. It’s a 45 minute drive for me to get there, and they no longer take my insurance as I switched jobs, and I still continue to go there and wouldn’t go anywhere else. More

I went in to have a filling replaced today and there was worry of a possible need for a root canal🤕. Dr. Ruckert and Courtney did a great job and all I needed was just a filling. Friendly, positive, and assuringly professional the whole time. Over all great experience even though 3 hours later my mouth is still numb from the novacain. I didn't feel a thing with the drilling and filling so I'm not complaining. Highly recommend!! More

As always had a great experience today. The staff there is ALWAYS very friendly and they do great work. More

Thanks Linda for a great dental cleaning n fun chat too! Always friendly staff who r helpful /knowledgeable about all procedures/costs keeping u informed along the way. Nice meeting dr Kavanaugh 7/14. Awaiting to see Dr Rueckert soon. Dixie Stevens More

Very friendly staff! I've been a client for many years now and have nothing but good things to say about CP Family Dentistry. More

I have been here about 4x for a cleaning in the last couple years. I have had double jaw surgery, braces 3x, severe trauma at past dentists, root canal and tooth extraction. This is the only dental office I have been to that takes me seriously when I warn them of my trauma ever visit to be extra careful and gentle. I still get nervous but every time I go it’s a painless and good experience. They also have flouride free products and are incredibly kind. Never a bad experience! Highly recommend. I never EVER write reviews but I feel it’s necessary. Also they get my teeth incredibly clean much faster and pain free than any other place. More

Been going there close to 15yrs now and the entire staff has always been great. Professional and also friendly,joking and make it a great experience. Most recently thank you to Dr.ruckert and Courtney for fixing up a few of my teeth. Whose afraid of the dentist More

Megan is wonderful!!! Very thorough and friendly, she makes you feel extremely comfortable! She did a fantastic job on my cleaning and always answers any questions I have. Thank you! More

I had my teeth cleaned today and Meghan was my hygienist. Meaghan is so great at her job besides being so sweet. She helped me today to figure out a plan for my upcoming root canal. She heard my need and took it upon herself to see what she could do to help. Thank you! Cifton Park Dentistry is a great place to go!!! More

Megan, as always was great. Cleaning went perfectly & they checked out a problem tooth that’s been bothering me. More

After going to the same dental practice for 35+ years, I needed to find a new one. Needless to say, I was nervous about the change. After reading reviews, I decided to go with Clifton Park Family Dentistry. I am so thankful that I made a great choice. Thankfully, I’ve only had to go for my cleanings so far (Linda is awesome) but I am confident, after meeting Dr. Kavanagh, that I am in great hands should I need a procedure. The office staff is friendly and very efficient too. I would highly recommend them to anyone. More

I’ve been going here for a few years and have always been taken care of adequately. Yesterday I had Megan as my hygienist and was super happy with my cleaning and care, education, and personal connection. Hands down the best cleaning I’ve gotten in years. More

I had my teeth cleaned today by Linda, the dental hygienist here. She was absolutely wonderful. She was very professional and compassionate as well. She was very thorough and explained everything as she worked with me. My last hygienist I had there did half of what Linda did and I didn't realize how much less of an effort the other hygienist put in cleaning my teeth, until Linda cleaned them. I would highly recommend Linda for your dental hygienist when you need your teeth cleaned at Clifton Park Family Dentistry. More

Great experience! The front staff is pleasant to talk with on the phone and greet you as you walk in the front door. The office is clean, organized and spacious. Linda and Dr. Kavanagh made me feel like part of the family. I am looking forward to visiting with them again 🙂 More

Always a great experience. Highly recommended!!!! More

I have had nothing but terrific experiences with Dr. Ruckert and Megan and the rest of the Clifton Park Family Dentistry staff. From the doctor to the front office staff, everyone has made each interaction really positive and comfortable. I will be glad to recommend CP Family Dentistry to my friends. More

I was a little nervous about going to a new dentist after having gone to the same dentist for many years. I did some research and decided to go to Clifton Park Family Dentistry. I am so glad I did! Linda was very friendly and took a lot of time reviewing my previous records and then taking X-rays and showing me a few problem areas that would need some work. I was very impressed with the state of the art equipment and instruments she used for my exam. Dr. Dodd then explained the best procedures for what I needed to have done. He took the time to get to know me and asked many questions about my medical history. I did not feel rushed and knew that my decision to come here was an excellent one. I set up another appointment with Alicia, the scheduler/receptionist who was very friendly and accommodating to my schedule. I actually look forward to my next appointment! If you are looking for a new dentist, I would highly recommend that you make an appointment here. More

Had a deep cleaning today.. Meghan was amazing and kind .. even people at the front desk very polite had amazing experience.. More

I received very professional, friendly treatment. The cleaning was very thorough by using a very gentle but effective technique. Also, had a great time with Meghan, who is a very talented singer and hygienist! More

I’ve had cleanings with pretty much every hygienist at this office, and they are always so friendly, knowledgeable, and gentle. Today I had a cleaning with Alex, and she was no exception. She took her time and was very thorough and professional. Looking forward to my next cleaning! More

Linda is an outstanding advocate for all of her patients. Highly recommended for outstanding dental care! More

Good office. Great Staff. Only had a cleaning but it went well with no complaints. More

Amazing staff, clean & professional! I highly recommend this place...and request Linda-she did an amazing job & great personality to boot. I am so glad I found them-you will be too! More

Pleasant experience with my six month dental cleaning appointment. The staff was caring and didn’t make you feel rushed. Meghan was very thorough with the procedure and it was painless.

I would never ask anyone who will take care of my teeth other than Linda Symansky. She's kind and hard worker person. More

Had a great experience, everything was explained to me prior to my visit. Everyone had shoes on too! Very professional and answered all my questions. 10/10 wish I could give Linda more than 5 stars! More

Another professional and efficient experience. Linda clearly has the expertise that comes with years of training. Recommend highly. More

What a pleasant office! New to NY, hadn’t been to the dentist since pre-Covid. Meghan was amazing, knowledgeable and kind. Would def recommend! Dr. Cara is very personable and removed any concerns More

I have a dental fear and it doesn’t matter how old I am. I still get nervous. Today Meghan was straight forward walked me through everything explained everything and understood that I have a fear. Today was a great experience. I would highly recommend ! More

Great staff there was really no wait time. I got in and everyone was very friendly and nice. Great office staff!! More

it was a pleasure to be treated with respect and given several options for a complicated cavity. I was given hope that my tooth may be saved instead of being railroaded in an extraction. the price of the procedure seemed fair and reasonable. my dental work in the future will be done by this group. a special thanks to Meghan and Dr. Ruckert for a professional and caring exam. More

The staff at Clifton Park Family Dentistry is always friendly and helpful. The receptionists greet me with a hello and smile whenever I come in and when they call. The texts and emails they send out are a huge help and reminder. I recently had a bad case of the flu and was able to cancel my appointment and reschedule without any problems. The hygentists and assistance are friendly, knowledgeable and take the time to get to know their patients. The doctors are amazing. I've never liked going to the dentist, but the staff and doctors at CPFD make me feel comfortable and do what they can to ease my anxiety. I really appreciate all they do for me and my family. More

I would like to just say that my wife Sheila and I were so impressed with Clifton Park family from the time we walked in the door until the time we left. The staff went above and beyond and I would recommend them to everyone. More

First time at this location. I was previously at the Clifton park location for many years. Always happy with the dental care my son and I have rec’d. Very pleasant visit. Great care and attention. Dentist, hygienist and staff great! More

I really enjoyed my visit. The Dental Hygienist was very personable and knowledgeable. In all the years of going to a dentist office I never had anyone explain an X-ray and what they were looking for. I need dental work that I have been putting off since Covid . The office staff is very knowledgeable about my insurance and was eager to explain my options. Although I have been to this dental office before I had not been in a couple years and they have made significant changes in how they interact with patients. I am so pleased. One more thing I would like to note is their high standards to cleanliness and keeping everyone safe. They really do practice safety protocols and anyone who is apprehensive about being treated due to contracting covid-19 should know that people can be asymptotic and there will always be risks but in my opinion, if you need treatment, they really are safe!! More

My appointment today was with Megan my hygienist. She is wonderful and does an excellent cleaning job too. My dentist is also excellent, Dr Rugert. I highly recommend them both. Happy patient Debbie Spooner More

Fantastic Dentistry! Clean facility and a welcoming staff!! More

Linda is a great hygienist. Always a professional and painless experience getting my regular cleanings at Clifton Park Family Dentistry. Scott Ziter More

My previous dentist was a train wreck. Always in a hurry. In trying a root canal he broke the tooth leading to an extraction. Then two cavities were temp filled, when I asked why, he said he didn’t have time. The temps lasted 1 week. His next 15 minute fix lasted 3 weeks. So I switch dentists to here. Dr Fisher has repaired my temps and even took her time when they didn’t hold. I’m impressed at the customer service here. Within a month I had my temps fixed, a cleaning, and a repair to an old filling that gave out. They have answered all my questions and I don’t feel like a number. I also appreciate the extra care they took to get me back on track. My friends tell me about the nightmares they have, i’m Glad to say I found a great dentist. More

Linda is the best, most patient hygienist! She's also a hoot around Halloween! More

I was looking for a new dentist. My previous dentist retired. I was very impressed with how modern and clean this office is. The staff is friendly and informative. The hygienist, Linda was thorough in cleaning my teeth and with explaining issues that I was having with my teeth. I was excited when I found out that Dr Ruckert does Invialign in this office. I have wanted to get my teeth straight again for years and I thought I would have to get braces again. He was very informative and showed me what the trays looked like. He didn't make me feel rushed and took the time to answer all of my questions. I am now looking forward to my first set of Invisalign trays and getting my teeth straight again. More
