Dr. Laura Manuel, Alexa, Lisa, & the whole staff. These girls are absolutely awesome. I walked into the waiting room knowing that I was going to hate the whole office, especially the Dentist. Yes, she didn't know it but my previous Dentist just retired & I had been with him for 20+ years. Of course I loved that man. So right away DrLaura is so sweet & she just makes you feel like a member of the family or her new best friend.
She is the sweetest, kindest, nicest person & she is a Dentist. The whole staff is awesome & everyone is very kind, sweet & very accommodating. There is not one negative thing to say about this Dentist or this office. If you get chilly, they even cover you with a blanket!. I gave Dr Manuel's office 5 because they all deserve it. Thank you all for taking such good care of me. Linda Herek

Dr. Manuel and her entire staff are incredibly competent and professional. All of their equipment is the most modern, and the staff is friendly yet they never waste my time, and they REALLY know their jobs. There's always tons of free parking on the street right in front, and I've never waited more than five minutes to be seen. Dr. Manuel made it clear even during COVID that if I had an urgent problem, she would be happy to see me right away. Dr. Manuel always listens carefully to everything I have to say, and I can't imagine being in better hands.
And she's not just a fantastic dentist; she understands how to run a business -- which is probably the more difficult of the two! I'm just blown away by how well-run this practice is, and I feel so fortunate to have found it.

I have seen Dr. Laura for over 10 years. Many dentists go to dental school and start a practice, with little interest in staying current in the field. Every visit to Naples I am impressed with their cutting-edge technology that provides more precise diagnoses and the necessary protocols to have a healthy mouth. I have always found her to be personable and able to provide thorough, knowledgeable answers to any questions I have had. Attentive to every small detail relative to patient comfort, I always leave her office satisfied with the work she has done with sincere professionalism. If you are searching for a new dentist. Here ya go!

Not a fan. Went there for years. Scheduled appointments for Invisalign. All was working well until the final fitting which resulted in a wait for the final product which took months: then I get a call that if I didn't come and pick the product up, they would need to send it back. What? I was never told the office received it. So I dropped everything left work and sped to their office.
I waited in the waiting room, then escorted to one of the dental chairs then after another long wait was told they could not find my liners. "We list them" I was told. So they measured and fit me again and ordered another set which came in about a month. So here I go back to the office, upon departing I was presented a bill for 2 sets of liners. I told them to bill my instance and was rod insurance would not cover.
So I left the office and called instance myself who told me that the office charged them for the "lost set" which they paid. So I asked the office why they wanted me to pay for 2 sets when they were already paid for one. Guess that was a trick question cause they insisted I pay for the second set even though the first set was lost and I never received. Getting no where, I asked to speak with dr Laura herself to come to some middle ground.
Hearing nothing I asked two more times and also sent her an email. Crickets. Really? Is that the way an educated professional should act? Clearly, the buck is just as important as the friendly customer service lip gloss charade they act upon. Patients beware -- First Review the EOB to learn what billing goes on in this place then ask why they bill insurance for services which are not performed. Beyond Shameful.

I'd like to start off this review that I strongly dislike going to the dentist, I may have a slight fear of the place. I've bounced around several different practices and came across this one, and Dr. Laura. The whole team assembled at this practice are professional, helpful, and fun to be around. I explained my dislike of the dentist during my appointment and they made me feel right at home and made sure to explain everything going on so I had nothing to worry about.
This is my new go to spot for dental work and crazy enough I'm not dreading going back in a few months for another check up. This place is awesome 5 out of 5 stars! Thanks Dr. Laura and staff for your professionalism and helpfulness. I would also like to add I did get a teeth cleaning during the pandemic, they follow all the safety guidelines needed to ensure all staff and guests are safe during this strange time! Keep up the great work.

Dr Laura is the best! She's very knowledgeable and has a great bedside manor. Lots of technology in the office (def not an old school dentist). The front desk staff is always a pleasure to deal with. They have made a lot of improvements to handle the Covid thing effectively. I have friends that have gone to Dr Laura for years and they finally got me to switch over to her. Glad I did. Hope you do the same.

I LOVE this office. I've honestly never met an entire staff that is as sweet and welcoming as this crew. They make coming to the dentist fun. Dr. Manuel is so down to earth and awesome as well. I still don't like getting my teeth cleaned, but they make it a lot easier. My husband enjoys the office too

Please be aware! I have PPO insurance for dental. I had visited another dentist office before, but unfortunately my dentist retired. I searched for another dentist on yelp, and I saw the 5 star reviews for I decided to call to schedule an appointment. During my initial call I gave my insurance information to the lady, and asked if they accept Cigna and if my visit will be covered.
I was informed yes! I also asked before leaving the office and was also informed that nothing was due. Weeks later a bill for Hundreds of dollars arrived to my address. I called the office and was informed the office is not part of any network, and they usually informed clients before their visit. I never informed of that or else I would visited another office.
There was nothing more spectacular about this place than my other dentist and thatcleaning was covered twice a year. Also, during my visit patient's name and their fees were displayed on a screen in the room that I was getting my teeth cleaned.

Had a wonderful first experience here. I had been dreading a long overdue visit to the dentist for years. The facilities are lovely, the tech state of the art, the wait time was nothing. Dr. Manuel was kind and thorough as were her staff. Lisa Marie and Shannen took great care of me. I dare say I am looking forward to my next appointment.

This is a darn shame. I was a customer for close to 10 years. Laura Manuel is great, her hygienists are pleasant but trying to get an appointment is like trying to get an audience with the pope. I tried for 6 months going backward and forwards with the front desk but could never make it work. and then they got high and mighty and that was it. Adios I don't need a lecture from a scheduler and I don't want to beg for an appointment. Clearly they are to busy to worry about long time customers.

First off, may I say going to the dentist is a total phobia for me. I discovered Dr. Laura and her staff and am so glad I did. The moment I walked in the door I was made to feel welcome and comfortable. I was greeted and taken back by Ashley who did my X-rays. I have a trigger gag reflex and Ashley was awesome. She actually had someone else snap the X-ray so she could immediately remove the apparatus rather than have to walk back in (it was only about 3 feet but it made a tremendous difference). THAT is not only great customer service, it is amazing compassion. Dr Laura immediately put me at ease. Dr. Laura is engaging, friendly and a fantastic and very knowledgeable dentist. She explained my options and came with treatment plan. If you are looking for the most amazing dentist and staff ever, look no further than Dr. Laura and her awesome staff.

I've been going to Dr. Laura's office in Naples for a couple of years now and. she is by far the best dentist I've ever had! I use to be the guy who dreaded going to the dentist and my teeth suffered because of it. Now, I find myself going in on days when I'm not even scheduled because the staff is so amazingly friendly. The office as a whole is what makes the experience so great. Also, for someone who has a busy and often unpredictable schedule, they are beyond accommodating and understanding! I highly recommend Dr. Laura and her amazing staff if you're looking for a new dentist!

I've been going to Dr. Laura for about a year and I love it! The staff is amazing and everyone is extremely nice and professional. I received Invisalign treatment along with regular cleanings and have never had to wait more than 5 minutes when I get into the office. I'm greeted warmly and almost immediately escorted to the station. Dr. Will is awesome too!
My husband, who HATES going to the dentist, had a great experience with Dr. Will and doesn't mind going to his regular cleanings (which is a big deal). I'm really happy with this office and refer Dr. Laura and her team to everyone I know.

Dr. Manuel has it all. The office is comfortable. The staff is friendly and efficient. She is very knowledgeable and communicates in a very informative and respectful manner. I always feel as if my interests come first when receiving care by Dr. Manuel or her staff. The office provides friendly reminders of appointments.
