Dr. Whelan is a gentle and caring but fun dentist. My boys look forward to seeing him to play catch a bouncy ball in a cup after they finish treatment. The office staff is friendly and helpful. Kendal is very professional and wonderful at helping with insurance companies who deny services as well as making the children feel comfortable. I love Pleasant Pediatric dentistry.

I have been bringing my five children to this wonderful office for over five years. The experience has always been positive from the front and back office help, to all of the dental work. It is a comfortable, caring, professional environment. The front and back office, including the office manager, are professional and consistently helpful. The dental work has always been excellent and my children have excellent dental health because of Dr. Whelan's expertise. I recommend this office to all of my network of friends with confidence. The best test of quality is that my children love coming and leave happy.

We always appreciate the time Dr. Whelan spends with us as he explains what he has noticed during the dental exams. Our questions are answered and the kids learn what is expected of them to care for their teeth and gums. They all prefer to pass on the Cheetos based on their dentist's advice!

When we moved to Arizona 6 years ago, we left behind an amazing pediatric dentist. We were uncertain if any other provider would even compare to our previous provider. Dr. Whelan has exceeded all of our expectations. He is kind and compassionate and has taken the time to truly know our family. He has a vested interest in every aspect of who my children are. He remembers important details and always follows up on upcoming events. I prefer a conservative approach in my children's healthcare. He always listens and manages their care with my preferences in mind. His staff is loving and kind. Kendall is the best advocate for all patients when filing insurance claims. I have one child that was terrified of the dentist when we transferred to Dr. Whelan, but this year she asked to schedule her routine exam on her birthday!

This is a very family friendly dentistry that makes everyone feel loved with every visit. Every time we walk through those doors we are greeted with bright smiles and friendly welcomes! The workers here are so friendly and we are always treated to feel so special. Every one who walks into this dentistry is always treated like family and I couldn't ask for a better dentist. Everyone who works here cares so much about every patient! When I needed to get braces, we were stuck between two orthodontists. We decided to ask for Dr. Whelan's opinion and he suggested the orthodontist I go to now, and I couldn't be happier! This is this best Dentist anyone can go to and I definitely suggest this for all people.

We are happy with the doctor's approach to the treatment and his assistant. We wanted to buy some time and still get her teeth checked out if they are decaying more. They understood that and made us very comfortable.
