Over the past few years Schmidtke dental has been my dentist of choice.  The work performed has always been exceptional quality.  The entire staff is courteous, pleasant and helpful, even at seven o’clock in the morning when they open.  Explanations of procedures are easy to understand and questions are answered without being rushed. The one time I called about a problem concerning recent work I was seen at my earliest convenience and a complete exam was done to figure out the source of the problem.  When it turned out that there was not a problem with the work I was not made to feel foolish but was encouraged to continue to stay in touch and not hesitate to call back if the issue continued.  I was genuinely accepted and valued as a person as well as a customer.

The office appears well managed and organized and the staff has always appeared to enjoy their work and working with each other.  I’ve always felt welcome when I walk in for an appointment and have always been seen at my appointment time.  The only problem that I have encountered is on several occasions after having my teeth cleaned staff will offer a taste of a special dish they brought in for lunch.  Umm, maybe a taste before the cleaning!

  • We have been patients of Dr. Gabe Schmidtke for well over a year.  We have both been very satisfied with the care we have received.  To highlight the most positive features: the dental care has been excellent, Dr. Schmidtke is competent and caring and  Dede, the dental hygienist is also competent and very pleasant.  In fact, the entire staff has been most congenial.  We appreciate the promptness when we have scheduled appointments and the flexibility of scheduling for an urgent matter.  We are very pleased with our decision to become patients of Schmidtke Dental.

  • Dr. Gabe is the best dentist I have ever been treated by. I am 55 years old and I have never received the personal care that Dr. Gabe offers. He was always there even when times were tough. I could always count on him for straight talk and great service, not the bottom line. At the risk of sounding "corny", to me it's like having a great brother that became a dentist.

  • Whether it be cleaning, cavity, crown, or root canal, Dr. Gabe and his staff are the best. My family has been with Dr. Gabe and staff since they took over for our dentist that retired. Dr. Gabe and staff have gone over and beyond to make sure my family understands what needs to be done and what the outcome will be. We would highly recommend Schmidtke Dental. Personable, friendly, and experienced. What more can you ask for.

  • My husband and I continued as patients of Schmidtke Dental after the practice was purchased from Dr. Meyer, and we were never disappointed.  The services/procedures received have always been done in a professional, caring manner (albeit on occasion with wonderful humor, but--of course--only when humor was appropriate!).

    I recently learned that Dr. Gabe had decided in dental school that he would study everything he could about a variety of specialty dental work.  That way, instead of having to refer his patients to dentists who specialize in specific procedures, he could do it, which he does.  Since I strongly suspect that he is a perfectionist, I feel totally comfortable when he works on me in the dental chair.  I may be petrified, but I know I'll come out of the dental chair alive and well!

    The office staff stays well educated, and they willingly pass their knowledge on to the patients.  It is our responsibility to follow through with whatever we learn, so that we can proudly show off our healthy teeth and gums--or at least know that each of us is doing our best to have a healthy mouthful of teeth.

    I actually look forward to going to the dentist!

  • Schmidtke Dental has great people.  They make you feel at home and they take good care of your teeth. Dee Dee does a great job getting rid of my red wine and green tea stains. I appreciate Dr. Gabe’s attention to detail and quality dental care. Plus you get to watch sports and listen to Gabe’s football stories! I feel very comfortable recommending Schmidtke Dental to friends and family.

  • We had the worst luck with dentists since moving to Tucson and had been through several until we finally discovered Dr. Schmidtke.  I came to him the first time in misery (in need of a root canal) and he took excellent care of me--100 times better than the dentist I had before him.  We live out in Vail, but it is well worth the drive knowing we are all in such good hands.   What I love most about the office is that it is like a small family and everyone who works there knows all of our names--we are not just a number.   It reminds me of the way dentist and doctor's offices used to be when I was growing up.  Since 2005, we have all had mulitple procedures from teeth cleanings to bleaching and crowns to a full set of dental implants.  We have been extremely happy with all of Dr. Schmidtke's work!   De De is the best hygienist anyone could ask for--it's almost painless getting our teeth cleaned!   Several of our friends and co-workers are also now happy patients of Dr. Schmidtke and if you are his patient, you will see why!

Elizabeth Custer here giving a brief testimonial about SCHMIDTKE DENTAL. WOW! What can I say about the staff. Caring, friendly, loving and genuine. From the moment you walk into the door and are greeted by front staffer Amber your nerves are already relaxed. From the moment of greeting to awaiting to be called back to see Dr. Gabe, Amber and the staff set you at ease, always making sure you are comfortable and ready to begin procedures. 

I have been one of the fortunate patients who gets to see such a great dentist as  Doc Gabe. I have always been handled in a professional and friendly manner. With Doc Gabe's sense of humor, how could you not feel relaxed. 

My time spent in the dentist's chair is quick, and with the help of relaxing medications, the procedures are painless and much less stressful.

The staff  is always checking up on you to make sure you are comfortable, not too nervous and ready to get started. Of course, the best part is when you are finished!

Coming from a patient who was once highly terrified of dentists and now quite relieved of them, I would recommend Doc Gabe and his staff to anyone who has an issue with dentists, who might be a bit scared or who just plain want to be taken care of by a great man.

Thanks to everyone who makes me feel comfortable and part of the family.

Sincerely,

Elizabeth A Custer
