Testimonials

The most compassionate, caring, and professional dental practice I have been to. Drs. Winter, Drown, Mohler and Baronas care and respect their patients, while providing excellent dental care.- CB

I was in so much pain and got me in to see Dr. Winter right away. Bridgette and Dr. Winter were so professional and very empathetic because of how nervous i was for treatment. I highly recommend them and couldn't say nicer things about the practice!- HS

I have been a patient at this practice for more than twenty years. I have always found all the doctors and staff to be both highly professional and competent, and also very caring. I had every faith that they would be extremely careful and professional in covid times, which they were. They are very detail oriented and will follow up on things they noticed previously. They are invested in quality professional dental care and are also invested in their relationships with the people they serve. I have no doubt will continue so. -Monica O

Thank you Dr. Mohler! We are SO happy to be clients of your dental practice. It is absolutely the BEST my family and I have ever received since they 'graduated' to adult dental practice! I will happily tell anyone who's looking for a dental practice to call 'home' to come where we call 'home'.
Sincerely, K.S.

Dear Dr. Baronas,
I am so pleased with what you have been able to accomplish with regards to my teeth. You have been so patient and compassionate during all of my visits. This meant so much to me. Over the years, I have spent much time in a dental office trying to save the teeth i had. Then, to have you send me the letter saying it could be possible to have permanent posts was such wonderful news to me. And you did make this possible. Words cannot express how thankful I am for you making this possibility come true. Many many thanks for my beautiful teeth!
Sincerely, JH

Dr. Drown and staff,
Thank you so much for the excellent care you gave Mike and me before, during and after his teeth extractions. We couldn't have asked for a better experience or more expert care. You gave us explicit instructions, patiently waited for him to get completely numb and did an expert job removing his teeth and then took care of all the after-care questions. Thanks so much. We are really blessed to be your dental patients.
Sincerely, JD Ellicott City

I don't know where to start! Thanks so very much for all the medical care (especially Aliza).....when I looked in the mirror and found beautiful veneers on my front teeth, I can't tell you how happy that made me! With Love, B

Dr. Baronas,
I just wanted you to know the depths of my appreciation for the tremendous kindness you and your staff have bestowed on me. It is my hope I can repay your kindness by helping others overcome their fears as well. I don't want people to live life with fear or regrets. Thank you again for all of your support. CP

Dr. Mohler, Thank you for coming in on a snowy Saturday to fix my tooth for me. I really appreciate it. I have been very impressed with your office and plan to tell all of my friends. ES

Dear Dr Baronas, Dr Mohler, Dr Baronas and Dr Drown, Aliza, Joan, Kim, Kira & the rest of the amazing staff

I have been a patient of Dr. Baronas for many years, and have worn a partial plate for most of that time. About four years ago, after a thorough discussion with him, I decided to have an implant placed. Just recently, I had a second one. In both cases, the two-part procedure was not unpleasant as he uses the most up-to-date equipment and techniques. It has been well worth the time and expense to eliminate the problems of a partial plate.
