I received excellent care and service from the office of Dr. Jelinek. I had to get an oral appliance for sleep apnea (as ordered by my doctor). Dr. Jelinek and his staff were very caring, knowledgeable and efficient in providing this service. I would recommend him to anyone needing various dental services.

How often do you meet a dentist who gets excited and energized when you’re making progress? I admit I was jaded and skeptical about my TMJ plan. I was desperate after so many uncaring TMJ experts turned out to be a bandaid at best. This guy cares and his approach has changed my attitude about how much I can overcome the pain and side effects of TMJ. My results are beyond what I had imagined in my best case dreams. Still working towards a complete and lasting cure at 6 months. But I’m pain free in every sense and better every day. I’m confident I’ll get there for the first time ever. If you’re serious about getting this monkey off your back he’s your man. He gets my highest recommendation and thanks.

Always a good experience at Dr. Jelinek’s office. The staff is wonderful and the place is spotless and the dental care is awesome. Just had a dental cleaning today and realized it’s been over 11 years now since I first started coming to this dental office. Dr. Jelinek also treated me for my sleep apnea and the dental appliance (nite bite) he fitted for me has been a lifesaver. Excellent and compassionate Dentist! I highly recommend him and his staff.

I just spent my first night with my new oral dental appliance changing from a CPAP I had used for 14 years. Dr Jelinek supplied and fitted the device which will vastly improve my sleep apnea treatment. Throughout the process his care has been thorough, thoughtful, and very effective. I strongly recommend him and his service for this type of dental care.

Dr. Jelinek is a top-notch dentist who is highly professional, gentle and put me at ease within 5 minutes of sitting in his chair. I have suffered from dentist-chair phobia my entire life and my fear has disappeared. His dental hygienist is the best I’ve ever had in over 60 years. I am delighted to have found this dental practice after returning to this area after 25 years. FIVE GOLD STARS!

Amazing office staff. Dr Jelinek looks at all aspects of dental care. By listening to my dental health issues I was able to find out I had sleep apnea. I had no idea that a apnea issue would be diagnosed by my dentist. I have a new quality of life thanks to Dr.Jelinek and his staff

Today was my first visit to Dr. Jelinek’s office. I was thoroughly impressed. The staff was friendly and welcoming. I was even gifted a new patient gift bag. The dental hygienist was personable and very thorough. She explained things to me as she reviewed my x-rays, including pointing out that my one tooth was rotated, not broken like I thought, which no dentist ever told me. She even measured my gums, which no dentist or dental hygienist ever did before that I recall, and even explained why she did and what the numbers meant. Dr. Jelinek was equally thorough to the point that he even looked for signs of oral cancer during his routine exam, which no dentist ever did to my knowledge. If they did, they didn’t tell me. I left there feeling even more knowledgeable about my personal dental health. I definitely know that I made the right choice in becoming a patient of Dr. Jelinek.

I consider Dr. Stephen Donohue to be one of the best dentist I have had in my long history of receiving dental care. He has 39 years of experience and still loves his job and his patients. I had a crown that had decay in the tooth and with current technology he was able to discover it. He gave me a choice of how this tooth could be treated. My experience in the past is you only get the most expensive treatment. But I had 2 options for my condition and I chose not to replace the crown at this time. I am so grateful for his expertise and integrity a rare combination in this field. Sincerely, Ruth
