  2. I have always appreciated the entire staff at Ling. They focus on providing wonderful care, are always honest in assessing what is needed and taking good care of our entire family.

  3. Dr. Zach Walgenbach is an incredible dentist. I had to have quite a deep cavity filled and he made me feel calm through the whole process. He also took the time to thoroughly explain tooth/mouth chemistry so I felt more knowledgeable about …

  4. So far, Ling Family Dentistry has been the best dentist that both my wife and I have seen. We were using one that was a little less professional and it seemed like the others cut corners… …

  5. I’ve been going to Ling Family Dentistry for 40 years and have always been extremely happy. Some of my metal fillings are still in place after 30’ish years and there’s no pressure by Ling Dentistry to replace them. I never feel like they are out to take my $$. They are professional and do what’s best for the customer.

  6. My first impression of Ling Family Dentistry was great. They were very welcoming and helpful getting me set up as a new patient. My oral exam was very indepth and I was impressed with how thorough they were in checking my teeth. My dentist …

  7. Dr. L saved my smile. Hours of meticulous work & it’s beaming! I’ve had numerous visits here, and some during pregnancy – staff accommodated nicely, regarding medications & positioning! I won’t go anywhere else, recommend them to others, and will bring my toddler in for his first check soon!

  8. Had an emergency visit the other day and was luck enough to be able to see Dr. Pope who fix my problem. Due to COVID I let my dental slide, believe me I will not do that again. Thank you Ling Dental. See you in October!

  9. I would have given five stars if this review were based only on the positive dental care that I’ve received. However, an experience from a few months ago left me so irritated that I can’t get past it enough to schedule the next appointment …

  10. Had the pleasure of going to dental school with Dr. Walgenbach. He is a great guy and an excellent dentist. He was by far the hardest working person in our class, all of his patients loved him, and he graduated with high academic honors. I recommend all of my friends and family in the twin cities area to him.

  11. I have done a regular cleaning and I would like the way Lisa a Dental Hygienist has done her job, very detail, delicate and very low discomfort, she makes the visit to dentist way easier and more comfortable which is amazing, I really suggest you ask for her.

  12. Was there for six month check up and annual x-rays. Did not have to wait. As always all personnel were professional and friendly. Dr. Michael Ling has maintained the highest professional standards and friendly, family atmosphere that Ling Family Dentistry has always been known for.

  13. We recently moved from out of state to Blaine and I had a tooth that was bothering me, being new to the area and not knowing anybody I did some searching for a new Dentist and thought that after checking out some of the Dentists on line …

  14. I’ve been going here for about 8 years. I moved about 25 minutes away and thought I should change dentists to somewhere closer to me. Well, I did and ended up right back at Ling asking them to validate what the other dentist had reported. …

  15. I have always been treated very well every time I have been there. Only problem 😊 is they don’t give me a lollipop 😂. I would recommend them to anyone. …

  16. Simple – that is a word we can never use here. First time trying to get a simple appointment and I was asked a TON of info- and she puts me on hold.
    Heard of ‘NEW CUSTOMERs’ are good for business? Change the receptionist (8:50am 16FEB)

  17. I haven’t been to the dentist in a very long time and I was nervous to say the least. Dr. Zach and Melissa were very very nice and calmed me down, no judgement and I am greatful for them. Honestly the best dentist visit I have ever had, …

  18. I recently moved to Blaine, and was looking for a dentist to take a look at my wisdom teeth, kind of immediately. They fit me in the next business day, and all of the staff were super nice. Their systems are easy, and they clearly communicated next steps. I’ve found my go-to hometown dentist!

  19. They did good work I feel they are very good at what they do. Dr Pope did a great job helping me keep my tooth. The only negative I have is that I’m still in pain. They do a good job but don’t seem too concerned about the comfort level of …

  20. Very pleasant. Brenda was very personable and very thorough in telling me what was going to be done and doing the actual cleaning. Was a gentle experience overall. Dr. Sarah was also very thorough in checking out my teeth and giving me her overall assessment. I felt like they cared about your experience

  21. I had a great visit today at Ling Family Dentistry. The staff was courteous and professional even though they were very busy. Got the most thorough cleaning of my life. The hygenist and the doctor took good care of me and took extra time to …

  23. What a wonderful practice! They are so professional, patient and kind. They turned an unpleasant visit into an insightful and positive experience. I would highly recommend Ling Family Dentistry to my family and friends! Thank you to all the wonderful hygentists and Dr. Zach Walgenbach and Dr. Michael Ling especially, for the work you do.

  24. Very professional and everyone is very accommodating. Any treatment, whether a routine cleaning, to more extensive dental work is explained clearly, and expertly done. I would recommend Ling Dentistry to anyone.

  25. As always everyone was very friendly, competent, and professional and I was in and out in less than an hour for cleaning and exam. Have been a patient there many years dating back to when their office was in Fridley. Highly recommend them.

  26. I just went here for the first time. A+ I shopped around, they were the cheapest in town and by far the most professional as well. Beautiful clean office and Mike sat down and explained all my options to make the best decision possible. I’ll never go anywhere else again.

  27. Absolutely the best dentist I’ve ever been to. Every single person I’ve met there has been very friendly, and they are incredible at their jobs. I’ve had several fillings done here and they’ve all been reliable let and we’re virtually …

  28. I love this place!! I mean, let’s face it, there aren’t many people that really look forward to going to the dentist, but the staff at Ling are a delightful group and great to work with. It makes getting dental work done a bearable thing. …

  29. My husband had an emergency and they took care of him right away. They are great, treat him with respect and do a wonderful job. He hasn’t had one complaint about the service that they perform. They are fantastic. Hubby had another emergency and took him in promptly. Thx

  30. I sent an email at 6:45am to see if I could get in right away in the morning and they called me at 7am and got in me in at 8am! I had Dr. Carol Ellens and I highly recommend her and her assistant. Mi helped me at the front desk and was also amazing!!!

  33. I like all the workers in the building, Dr Pope has given me great care and multiple times fixed a tooth that wouldn’t cooperate. If you want a dentist, that is the place to go

  34. I really like this dentist and how great of a job they do however, it doesn’t matter how great they are if you can’t ever get an appointment. Reading through the reviews it seems to be a reoccurring issue for them.

  35. This is the best dentistry I’ve ever been to in my entire life. I don’t get scolded, I don’t feel like my mouth has been picked to shreds when I leave, and I don’t get told I need to have cavities fixed when I don’t need to, like other dentist I’ve been to in the past have done. Plus the staff is super friendly.

  36. I love this place. I look forward to seeing these guys every 6 months! They are very kind and go out of their way to please their patients. Highly recommend this Dentistry.

  38. Positive experiences with all staff I’ve encountered with. You could tell these people love their job Dr. Pope is amazing at what she does and gets the job well done.

  39. I mostly liked the staff here and their customer service but didn’t care for Dr Ling at all. After 3 appointments with him within a 2 month span, I found him to be smarmy and insincere. Also he did a poor job with my crown and when I mentioned the concerns, he made excuses for his work saying it was fine.

  40. The young lady that clean my teeth, and I did forget her name. I’m sorry about that. She was just great. I hope I get her next time she’s the best💯 great conversation with her and she did a very good job. I recommend giving her a raise. …

  50. I am from out of town and had tooth pain. I couldn’t find a dentist who would take me but Ling did. The dental technician was excellent. It was difficult to diagnose what the problem was so she asked a million good questions. The doctor did …

  51. Can’t say enough about Dr. Ling and Jen. They were both so patient with our daughter who was so terrified. She was crying and they continued to talk to her beyond closing time. After a lot of convincing, she was able to finish her appointment with a smile. Thank you both so much!

  54. I have been a patient at Ling Family Dentistry for decades. Even though I’ve moved from the Blaine area, I travel almost 45 minutes twice a year just to have my 6 month check-ups; they are that good! Professional, thorough, and friendly.

  55. The most professional atmosphere and service I have encountered at a dentist. Excellent and pain-free hygienists and competent and professional dentists.
