William L Gallagher,DDS

First time here
What I love about this place:
1. The hygienist that cleaned my teeth knows what she was doing.
Dentist office makes me nerves. I’m tired of going to other dentist office where I have this new person learning how to clean teeth. That’s just painful. If I’m going to a private own business, they better know what they are doing.
2. Super sweet people.
3. Feels like a mom and pop place. Place is so homey and they have A LOT of cups (like drinking mugs from all over the place) hanging in the wall. It’s amazing.
Overall, I’m happy. Teeth is clean and painless.

Dr. Gallagher has been our family dentist for 20+ years, and we wouldn’t consider seeing anyone else!

I went through a long extraction and implant process with Dr. Gallagher and another professional he recommended. Dr. Gallagher and his staff were patient, professional, and competent. A Jazz lover like myself, Dr. Gallagher is a cool cat. I highly recommend this office to get the best care possible.

I went to Dr. Gallagher for a second opinion after western dental told me I had to get 12 fillings! A week later I show up at Dr Gallagher’s office and western dental hadn’t even sent the X-​rays that I requested and paid for a week prior… Without having the X-​rays Dr. Gallagher told me that I didn’t need that many filings. He said that my teeth were resistant and healthy and mostly stained. He said that he would prefer to see me twice a year for a check up rather than fill my mouth with fillings. Good guy. His diagnosis made sense to me.

I’ve been putting off going to the dentist for years (even making an appointment makes me nervous!) but a friend recommended Dr. Gallagher so even though he is across the city from my house I decided to trust my friend’s judgement.
Kathy at the front desk was very helpful when I called with questions about my insurance and when I arrived for my appointment I was pleased to find a cute, comfortable office without all those ads for whitening and «glamor teeth». Bridget who did my cleaning has been there for something like 30 years. She made me feel comfortable and both she and Dr. Gallagher had good vibes. I ended up not having cavities so I had nothing to worry about anyway, but for once I am looking forward to going to the dentist for my next cleaning in six months :)

I’ve been coming here for years to see Dr. Gallagher. He’s honest, very straight forward about the procedures, and always on schedule. The nurses are supremely friendly and professional as well.
Dr. Gallagher is superb for a second opinion — he saved me tons of money after looking over some recommendations and x-​rays my college had given me.
The office has a rather homey feel to it, and is decorated in a rather retro fashion, which is nice. I highly recommend going here!

Highly recommended. I’ve been going to Dr. Gallagher for over 20 years now. The staff are all friendly and professional. The hygienists do the teeth cleaning and x-​rays. Dr. Gallagher then comes in to check on your teeth.
One additional item I would highlight: Dr. Gallagher is honest. My sister recently had a dentist tell her she needed about 12 cavities filled. I told her to go to Dr. Gallagher for a second opinion. He ended up pointing out two cavities that actually didn’t require filling. He even pointed out how one of the other possible «cavities» was just a good stain and polished it off.
My mom also swears by him. The dentures and crowns he makes are great quality according to her.

I’ve been going to Dr Gallagher since I was a child. Everything from teethcleanings to cavaties to removing teeth for the dreaded braces. When i moved away from SF, I used other dentists and I ended up feeling like the care was subpar. Most of the work I get done now for my teeth are for annual teeth cleanings and every several year’s xrays… and his assistants do those work. Both the dental hygenists (not sure if that’s the name) and the doc are thorough and professional and friendly. It’s hard to find doctors and dentists you like and trust so this one is a keeper.
