Dr. Collins is the most sincere dentist I have met. My daughter has been under her care since she was two years old including several visits per year. When we moved, after the first year of her care, we made the easy decision to commute for the exceptional dental care at this office. When you enter the office each staff member greats you with a smile and makes us feel as if we are their favorite guest! Our daughters name is always written in on the "Welcome" board for the day of her visit. The waiting area is large and has areas dedicated areas for different ages. A playhouse for very young children includes Legos, there is always a kid friendly movie playing and video games for the older kids. Upon entering the exam room, the child is offered a choice of a movie that is played during the visit which helps to distract my child. Dr. Collins always explains what she is going to do and always includes the names of her tools. "Grandpa Slurpee, Mr. Slurpee, a little teeth shampoo, and then my tooth towel." Regardless of my childs behavior or dislike of the appointment Dr. Collins praises my daughter and how she has been caring for her teeth. When my daughter was 2 she received an adorable bath toy for what they considered "an excellent visit." Now she receives coins to be used in the token machines. Due to my daughters extensive medical history, which has impacted her teeth, Dr. Collins has worked on my daughters teeth while under anesthesia at the local hospital. Her office made all of the arrangements and got all approvals from our insurance. It was such an easy process. On the day of surgery, Dr. Collins greeted us and again explained how everything was going to go, went back to the OR with my daughter and met us after the surgery. Late in the evening Dr. Collins personally called to see how my girl was recovering and asked that we call if we had any questions. I felt as though my daughter was her only patient. I cant rave enough about the quality of care that this office provides!

We brought our almost 3 year old in for his first dental visit recently. I contacted the office because it had good reviews and seemed to accept our insurance. The receptionist confirmed insurance would be accepted and set up our appointment in about a minute. First visit forms were provided by email which was great to get done ahead of time. Appointment reminder was sent by email with a button to add it straight to my Google calendar - very convenient. Reminder was also sent by text - great for busy parents to get these reminders! The office was clean and modern with toys, TV and video games (!) in waiting room. The office is well staffed with friendly and knowledgeable personnel. We were called back quickly for our visit after check in and everything was explained thoroughly for first time parents/kids. Exam rooms were big enough for wife and I and our infant daughter as well. TVs with DVD are provided above exam chairs. Hygienist and dentist were both thorough and clear, efficient and understanding of our sons temperament (cranky). It was a great first visit so I look forward to returning.

Dr Collins and the practice came into our lives when we desperately needed a knowledgeable and dedicated professional. Dr. Collins came up with a fabulous and comprehensive treatment plan for my son who had some serious dental issues. Later, once his mouth was stabilized, she gave us a referral to an orthodontist that is at the top of her field. Now for all his dental needs we are in the best of hands. Everyone at this practice is wonderful and you can tell they actually like kids. My son is very sensitive and not a very good dental patient. They were able to get him to cooperate and he is always happy to go there. In fact as we were on our way today he said, " Oh the place with the coins Oh, I love that place. Piece of cake Mom." Nuff said. Any child is lucky to have such a wonderful dental practice to go to.

Oh my goodness, I cried a little and had to hold back my tears today at the dentist and wanted to hug everyone from the front desk lady who remembered all the stuff I had said on the phone, to Dr. Z himself. After terrible, horrible, tragic, and physically restraining pediatric dental experiences with my four-year-old, who is sensitive to touch, sound and new sensory experiences, we had a wonderful, tear-less, super calm and relaxing visit. I was FLOORED at the difference. The most impressive part of the visit was how engaged and reactive they were with my daughter, and she responded so well to that. This is not something you can fake and kids really pick up on that - especially sensitive ones. Thank you! Everyone should go here, especially those with kids with sensory issues!

I love Dr Collins and her staff! My special needs son has been coming to Dr Collins since he was 4 years old and hes now 18. He was petrified of going to the dentist and would cry and literally weep before we even got there. He would go around crying on all of the staffs shoulders to avoid the chair. But Dr. Collins was so good with him. She understood his needs and dealt so gently and kindly with him. She would even sit with him on her lap to keep him still so he could be xrayed (which always brings tears to my eyes

I searched for a dentist for my son. Your first dentist is so important to prevent being afraid of the dentist. I drive from Ellicott City to Annapolis, because of their vote in Chesapeks Magazine. My son has NO problems going. He had a cavity filled at 5 and not a peep out of him. No hesitation to return. The staff is fast and friendly. I have never had to wait and the dentist explains everything with all the info you need! Everyone interacted with my son and made him and I totally comfortable

My oldest daughter, now 22 has been coming to Dr. Collins, Bross and Associates since she was about 8 and still loves coming to this office. My youngest, now 8, has been coming to this office for about 2 years and she truly gets excited every time she has an appointment. Everyone in the office is super amazing, and the dentists, Dr. Collins and Dr. Bross are so gentle, kind, and loving to all their patients! I cant imagine going anywhere else - theyre simply "THE BEST"!!

My third child has just had his first dental check up at Collins and associates. He was so excited to have his turn in the chair. Every visit for every level of care is top notch. My children always feel consulted and part of their dental care. Im always so very pleased that they will carry this foundation of dental care with them to adulthood.

I have never been so impressed with a dentist office, or a dentist! They go above expectations in EVERY area. Office staff, waiting room, wait time, doctor, knowledge...all exceptional! Lots of extras for the kids to make them happy and comfortable. Dr. Collins is AMAZING! Didnt rush us, took time to explain everything. Really fantastic!
