Patient Testimonials

Superb practice in terms of both medical expertise and staff professionalism. Several years ago I had a root canal to treat a lesion in one of my teeth, which mostly kept the problem at bay but never conclusively "cured" it. Recently it had begun to act up again and also developed an infection and needed to be re-treated, and my dentist referred me to NCE. At the time my insurance did not cover them, but I called their office frequently to try to determine whether or not it was worth upgrading my dental plan so that I could see them. Their staff was always incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely helped me figure things out (I cannot say the same of the staff at any other office I called). In the meantime I saw several other dental care providers - including another endodontist - all of whom suggested either procedures that were not likely to be effective long-term, or extracting the tooth altogether. This seemed far too drastic to me, as the tooth and surrounding area were not at all swollen or painful. When I finally saw Dr. Troxel at NCE, he easily identified a technique that would treat the infection and advancing lesion, as well as extend the life of the natural tooth. The surgery was quick and painless, and he and his assistant were efficient and communicative throughout. Afterwards I had very minimal pain and swelling, and no post-operative bleeding. I'd had several oral surgeries of varying intensity in the past, and have always had moderate swelling and bleeding in the first few days following the procedure. The fact that I didn't experience any of that after my procedure at NCE is, I think, a sign of a skilled surgeon. I highly recommend Dr. Troxel and NCE; don't waste your time and money anywhere else.

No one likes a root canal. But, I highly recommend Northern Colorado Endodontics if you find yourself in need of one. I was treated by Dr. Alex Troxel in the Longmont office on 15th Street. Very professional, patient and personable. Three shots of Novocaine and I didn't really feel any of them, including the one on my palate. Good communication and great service. A big thank you!

Not only did Dr. Geraets perform the procedure professionally and effectively, he was more than understanding with me. My anxiety was through the roof, and he was very patient and kind. Dr. Geraets took the time to listen to my worries and concerns, patiently calmed me down, and made sure I was as comfortable as possible. I would absolutely recommend him and this office.

I had to have an urgent root canal performed. I absolutely felt cared for and about from the moment my call was answered on the first ring. I billing and insurance went VERY well. As for my surgeon: I actually fell asleep during the Root Canal!

I developed a very unhealthy and painful root infection that evolved over the weekend. I camped out at my general DDS Monday morning seeking some respite from the discomfort. After an x-ray, it was determined that a root canal was necessary immediately. Northern Colorado Endodontics was THE place recommended and they were able to schedule me Monday afternoon-same day treatment. The explanations, care, and professional treatment started at the front desk, carried into the opportory and was finished with the financial check out. The office and staff put me at ease for a root canal-which was a first for me. The final endorsement for the office came from my wife-a dental hygienist of 30+ years. I would recommend this office for any endodontic work needed.

Best dentist appointment ever and it was a root canal! Didn't feel a thing other than a tickle in my nose! Did I mention that I am a dental phobic and have very sensitive teeth. Everyone was very supportive and made me very comfortable. I will be recommending the Dr. Galen Geraets and his staff to all I meet! Thank you so much!

Just wanted to reassure anyone in need of root canal treatment that this practice provides an incredible experience. I’ve been through a few of these in another state and my experience here was by far the best I’ve ever had. Absolutely no comparison! I honestly didn’t feel a drop of pain during or after my visit & Dr. Geraets and his assistant Maurine clearly went out of their way to make sure that was my experience. I struggle with severe dental phobia so I’m appreciative beyond words for their kindness & all they did to make the entire experience so easy. It was quite honestly one of the easiest things I’ve ever had to do. Thank you so very, very much! I am so happy that the pain I was experiencing before the appointment is completely gone. Yippee! I am truly grateful!

Very understanding when I explained my personal feelings towards dentist professionals due to past experiences. Extremely courteous, caring, thoughtful during my procedure. Recommend Dr. Galen and staff for any service they provide.

It is never easy having any mouth procedures done. Thanks so much for making this not as bad 🙂

I was scheduled for a consultation last minute and was in significant pain, Doctor Bergo made sure to get my situation taken care of immediately!

A root canal is an intimidating procedure for anyone, including those of us with a high pain threshold. I was caught off-guard the morning of my diagnosis: a root canal was the furthest thing on my mind. I am now a few days into recovery from the therapy: all is settling down, pain subsiding, nicely. I anticipate a smooth final recovery. I am very grateful to the staff, including Dr. Troxel and his dental assistant, for their skill, team effort, and calm demeanor. They are both quite extraordinary!! Thank you, NCE.

I would HIGHLY recommend Northern Colorado Endodontics to any & everyone in need of their services!! Not only was the staff extremely friendly, but everyone there goes above & beyond to, put you at ease, to make sure you are comfortable throughout the entire process, that you know what to expect before & after the procedure, to make sure you are well educated on what exactly they’re doing, & reassure you that if you do have further questions or concerns, to contact them for resolution. It was, by far, the best experience I have ever had, having to have a root canal done. It was quick, painless, & executed so smoothly. I appreciate everyone there!! Thanks so much!!

Dr. LeValley deserves my thanks. I was pleasantly surprised and pleased to have a caring, careful, and genuinely concerned professional perform my treatment. My past experiences elsewhere were definitely not any of the above. What a relief to be able to put my trust and tooth in such capable hands. Thanks to Dr. LeValley and his assistant!

I have had numerous root canals over my later life, with 4 different endodontists. Dr. Bergo takes the top prize for care, manner, professionalism, and efficiency. How does he do it? He takes the time to understand the problem, and carefully worked to identify the specific issue and tooth involved. He was meticulous in his approach, and used the 3-D X-ray to great effect, making sure everything was just right. He was very painless, for a ROOT CANAL!!! That is how far the technology and anesthetics have come, but also how the dentist operates. His Assistant Allison is one a million also, very precise, calm, careful, and efficient beyond understanding. A great team for your next root canal. I am now recovering with only minor discomfort, handled with Ibuprofen. Way to go NCE!
