I will never forget this Dr. and his big personality. He takes the time to explain, he's thorough in his care and treatment and too is empathetic to his patients fears.

They make an extra effort to get to know their patients and find out what they need. They always remember me and make me feel very important. Let me just say that this business is in one of the safest areas around and Dr. Mizukawa is one of the nicest and most knowledgable dentists/surgeons I have ever met. I would highly recommend this office. I have had (6) dental implanst and all but one have been done with Dr. Mizukawa. If it can be done, then he can do it! 5 star guy!!
