ABQ Gentle Dentistry

They are extremely thorough and really care about your dental health. The dentist is helpful to make you feel as comfortable as possible if you have a lot of anxiety about dental procedures. I drive kind of far to come to this office because it is worth it!

Dr. Lafferty and assistant Lisa are great. Very friendly. Transparent about what needs to be done. High quality work that lasts, compared to my previous dentist.

Dr. Lafferty and his staff were so friendly and kind. Dr. Lafferty was very informative about the condition of my teeth, and his hygienist even put Chapstick on my lips during the cleaning which I have never had done at any office before. Small gestures like that make a patient feel more at ease. Thank you for a great experience!

As far as Dentists go Dr. Lafferty is the best!! Friendly, patient, great staff and very reasonably priced. My son and I both go to ABQ Gentle Dentistry.

Dr. Dan Lafferty is the most concerned dentist I have ever been to in my 68 years.
He has been very efficient and thorough in the services that I have needed.
"Gentle Dentist" is very understated. He is far more than that.
I recommend everyone to consider visiting with Dr. Dan and you will find one of the most honest, straight forward people I have met.
Thanks Dr Lafferty for all you do.
Sincerity a lifetime patient to be sure.

Our family began visiting this dentist office many years ago, and we’ve stuck around through each physician transition. The current physician as well as staff continue to treat us like family, including my youngsters. There is never any stress associated with our visits, even for the kiddos. The visit is always very efficient, and the staff are always very professional. Thanks for another successful, painless visit today!

No matter that some of the faces and names have changed, the culture in your practice shines through and I for one appreciate it tremendously. Yes, I miss Mark, Sandra, and Harriet, but I also know that Dr. Dan and company are more than competent and share the same level of service and dedication to patients, and your staff, as those who came before you did.

Upon entering your practice one can immediately tell that you will be treated with professionalism, courtesy, and yes a little grace. It is helpful beyond words.

Today’s visit is a prime example: It had been January that my lanky frame last walked your corridors. Kelsey and I were almost immediately at ease. She performed her duties well and informed me of what to expect. In addition, she was friendly and though wearing a mask you could tell she did all of her work with a smile. Kathy: You are my hero! You are always consistent in your work, comforting in your manner, and share what you’re doing as though we were sitting at your kitchen table. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you! Dr. Lafferty exudes competence in his expertise and has an incredible “Chair Side Manner” that puts one at ease and you can sense an expansive sense of humor lurking just below the surface. Today, along with Kelsey, I met Erica for the first time as well and the first thing I noticed was her very expressive eyes. She too was immediately attentive, friendly, and genuinely caring.

Then there are the old hands, Lisa and Kim. You two always bring a smile to my face. Again, professional, competent, and just darn good people.

So, although I really dislike going to the dentist and have more issues than the average patient, I must say that I always leave your place of business feeling good and that’s because of all of you.

Thank you!

I can't say enough good things about this dental practice! Dr. Lafferty and his entire staff are The Best at what they do!

Dr. Bleak is hands down the best Dentists around! He extracted all my wisdom teeth (which were impacted) and I did not feel a thing! He is very gentle and he honestly has a gift with what he does! I moved out of town but I still travel to Albuquerque just to be seen by him! Kathy the hygienist there is very thorough too with the dental cleanings and the staff is very kind! Best practice around! Thank you Dr. Bleak and staff!

Dr. Lafferty is such a wonderful dentist. My husband is a patient there and his experience there had always been a great one. The staff is caring, the dentist knowledgeable, and the treatment thorough. ABQ Gentle Dentistry is our dental office of choice !!!!!
