There are good dentists, there are great dentists…and then there is Dr. Perez and the team at Metropolitan Pediatrics. Listen, my wife and I are critical consumers of medical and dental care, but we have been absolutely blown away by this practice. The customer service on the phone and at the front desk is consistently friendly and responsive. Our kids (6, 4 and 1) absolutely LOVE the game room, colorful and clean environment, and little toys that accompany every visit.

And Dr. Perez is equally informed and warm to patients - he knows his stuff but is always attentive and caring in the way that he communicates. I’ve never known kids actually looking forward to going to the dentist before we came to this practice. We can’t recommend them highly enough!

This place amd their staff are amazing! They have zen like patience even for rowdy and difficult pre kindergartener who had other thoughts about visiting the dentist! This practice is so amazing! They really think of everything. There is games and books in the waiting area, comfy seats with kid friendly shows and movies, and even a prize for good behavior. My kid is NOT an easy going tot! She has had epic meltdowns and has been generally uncooperative, yet thru it all the staff has been so, soo accommodating, patient, and sweet with her! And were unfazed by her antics. .

. . Highly recommend them!

Dr. Perez and his team are the absolute best. From the time we enter the office until the time we leave the experience is totally top notch. The front desk staff is courteous and friendly. The hygienist are thorough and professional.

My children have never complained and actually look forward to their appointments. Dr. Perez always take the time to come and speak to us at the end (sometimes at the beginning if there are issues to discuss) of each and every appointment.

Dr. Perez and his staff are phenomenal. They are fun and kind and put the kids at ease. We’ve been seeing them for almost two years now and my 5-year-old gets *excited* for his visits and doesn’t want to leave at the end of them! In addition, Dr.

Perez is clearly extremely knowledgeable about pediatric dental care and has been incredibly helpful in giving tips and suggestions for dental care at home. I highly recommend this practice.
