 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just have to give a huge shoutout to Dr. Kaitlynn and everyone at Columbus Pediatric Dentistry! My kids have been going there for about a year now, and we have had such a great experience every single time. Everyone is always so friendly, welcoming, and amazing with the kids. My kids actually get EXCITED when they find out they have a dentist appointment and are always asking when they get to go back! 😂 Our most recent experience, though, really made me want to share how thankful I am for them. My 3-month-old had been struggling with feedings. She rarely finished a bottle because she would fall asleep while eating, then wake up hungry again not long after. I felt like I was spending my entire day feeding her and couldn’t figure out why. I happened to mention what was going on to the staff at Columbus Pediatric Dentistry, and they scheduled her for a consultation to see if there might be something contributing to it. At the consultation, Dr. Kaitlynn found that she had a tongue tie. They were able to release it that same day, and we started noticing improvements almost immediately! Since then, feeding has been SO much better. She’s finally on a normal feeding schedule and is even sleeping through the night! It has made such a huge difference for both of us. I’m so thankful that they listened to my concerns and took the time to look into something I didn’t even realize could be causing her feeding issues. Between this experience and how wonderful they’ve been with all of my kids over the past year, I truly can’t recommend Dr. Kaitlynn and Columbus Pediatric Dentistry enough. 🩷 If you’re looking for a pediatric dentist, especially one where your kids will actually be excited to go back, I highly recommend them!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We cannot say enough amazing things about Columbus Pediatric Dentistry! My 3-year-old son had his very first dental appointment here, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we walked in, everyone was so welcoming, kind, friendly, and incredibly patient with him. 🥰🦷 They did such an amazing job making him feel comfortable and excited instead of nervous or scared. The staff was so sweet with him and knew exactly how to interact with a young child. They took their time, explained everything in a way he could understand, and made the entire appointment feel fun and positive. He absolutely LOVED it and was so happy when we left! 💙 As a parent, it means so much to know that your child is in a place where the staff genuinely cares about making them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. They went above and beyond to make his first experience at the dentist a great one, and we are so thankful! I would HIGHLY recommend Columbus Pediatric Dentistry to any parent looking for a pediatric dentist. If you have a little one who may be nervous about going to the dentist, this is definitely the place to go!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We drove a little over 2.5 hours to have our son seen to get a tooth pulled, it was absolutely worth it! The entire staff was amazing, kind, and great with relating and interacting with our 2 year old. They got us in and out quick without compromising great care, and we all walked out with big smiles! If we lived closer I’d bring my kids here for all their dental care!

Dr. Kaitlyn and her amazing team went above and beyond. They took the time to explain every single step to my girls, ensuring they felt completely comfortable and safe. The entire setup is wonderful, and the nurses create such a warm, welcoming environment. My daughters weren't scared at all; in fact, they can’t stop talking about their visit! Thank you so much. I will absolutely be recommending them to everyone! 🩷

Have dental insurance but was never told at the first appointment that my insurance wasn’t in network just received a huge bill after a few appointments  and the doctor kept threatening me to send the balance to collections every time I was a couple days late even on the payment.
