  • Total Family Dentistry has completely changed the way I feel about going to the dentist. Every staff member I have met from the front desk to dental assistants have been extremely personable, friendly, and knowledgeable. It makes all the difference! I struggle with somewhat serious anxiety and Dr. Stampelos put my anxiety at ease from the very start while providing great work. Dr. Joanna has been nothing short of amazing, continuing the fantastic work and personable environment. Truly could not be happier with the customer focus and consistent high quality work!

  • I wish more healthcare providers were like Dr. Joanna- kind, knowledgeable, honest, and a true expert of her craft. I have never been happier with my smile until I became a patient of Dr. Joanna. Her attention to detail and her perfectionism is unmatched. I would never let anyone touch my teeth besides her. She truly cares about each and every one of her patients. If I ever have a question, she is always available to speak on the phone to answer any of my concerns. I have yet to find a doctor like Dr. Joanna. Thank you for all that you do!

  • My experience with Total Family Dentistry has been the same since my first appointment in 1994. Always professional and personable, consistent and confident, Dr Gus and now Dr Joanna are absolutely the best in what they do. I have always felt comfortable going there from the very beginning and still do. Their office staff is always accommodating and welcoming. They are a dynamite team and I truly believe that they wholeheartedly take great pride in their profession and it shows. After all, 29 years alone should speak for itself.

  • I recently had the pleasure of receiving both a crown and whitening services at Total family Dentistry, and I am absolutely thrilled with the results! From start to finish, the entire process was seamless and stress-free.

    Dr. Stampelos and Dr. Joanna are both incredibly skilled dentists who take the time to explain each step of the process and make sure you feel comfortable and at ease. They are experts at their craft and it shows in the quality of their work. My crown fits perfectly and looks completely natural, and my whitening results are simply amazing. I've never had such a bright, beautiful smile!

    I would highly recommend this practice to anyone in need of dental services, whether it's a routine cleaning or a more complex procedure like a crown or whitening. You won't be disappointed!

  • Best dentist appointment I've encountered.
    Dr. Joanna makes you comfortable and let’s you know exactly what to expect . As part of my appointment had chipped tooth fixed and she did such a great job no one can tell which tooth. Still have more work to be done. Recommend this office.

  • Total Family Dentistry changed my life today! I was born with a cleft lip and palate, and have always had problems with my teeth. I did not have my #10 adult tooth and my teeth grew in crooked; and I had braces for 10 years! I was not confident with my smile and always tried not to. Today I cried leaving TFD’s office knowing my smile is beautiful and something I can be proud of. Dr. Stameplos, and his team are the kindest, most warm hearted people I have ever met. They are also experts in their craft. I have never felt so comfortable in a dentists chair and trust them completely. I will be forever thankful for Dr. Stampelos and his team.

  • My family and I have about ten years of experience visiting Total Family Dentistry... and have been seen by almost every staff member on site. We’ve had nothing but excellent service experience from each and everyone. We’ve had all kinds of dental work done here without any issues! We’ve recommended to our friends and extended family... and they all are very greatly appreciative for recommending and extremely happy with their experience... Dr. Gus and Dr. Baker which we’ve mostly visited are amazing people always putting a lot of effort into their work. And the hygienist all have great personalities and love their job!

  • such amazing staff, female dentist made me feel so comfortable during each appointment and helped calm my nerves tremendously!

    - Ashley D
  • It makes me sad that others have had a bad experience but my experience has been excellent. In fact so good that my wife switched after me and we send our daughter there too. The dental hygienist is the best I have ever had and even has you bring in your toothbrush and she’ll help you figure out if you’re missing spots when you brush and other tips. Her personality is great and she truly loves her job, and you can tell. My family does not have any major dental problems so our experience with the dentist is limited to standard checkup stuff. But the hygienist is 1 in a million!

  • I am over ninety and sometimes people think I'm 89. Just being funny. Anyway I went to TFD this morning and had the pleasure of being "worked on" by the prettiest dentist, Joanna Stampedes. She went through the procedure before, during and after. I'm hungry right now but Connie is making me Chicken Soup for the Soul. I forgot to retrieve my tooth or whatever was in my Gum go will have to write the Tooth Fairy a note and hope she believes me and maybe sends me some more costume jewelry. Hope I spelled your name right.
