I have been a patient here since before Dr. Arne started working alongside his Dad, George. From Patty running the office to Kerri my hygienist, plus both docs; impeccable service, maintenance, and management of my oral health - for 25+ years! Look no further for a lifelong dentist for yourself and your family, where you’ll hear all of the options and get to make the best choice as you incorporate their expertise and experience into your decisions about your only set of teeth ever!

Dr Gunderson and his team are very knowledgeable, professional and helpful. They are always positive and ready to solve any problem. My Wife & I do not admit this lightly, as we loved and personally knew our previous Dentist (Dr Meyers) who was a tremendous artist Dentist, but now retired. We definitely recommend Gunderson and His Staff. Thank You, LeRoy & Karon

Went in for a cleaning yesterday, it was time for x-rays, and Dr. Gunderson found two molars that were badly in need of a crown, one of them was from a former "budget" dentist who had done a poor job of a crown only three years ago. I'm grateful for all the staff at this office.

I have to have my teeth cleaned four times a year due to health issues that contribute to plaque build-up. I used to dread cleanings until I found Gundersen Dental Care. The dentist and hygenists are very knowledgeable, professional, and up to speed on the latest treatments. Kerry cleans my teeth, and you could not ask for a kinder, gentler hygenist! She is very professional and knowledgeable. I have a lot of recession, and she does everything she can to make me comfortable. The front office staff are pleasant and they go out of their way to work you into the schedule if you have an emergency. I highly recommend Gundersen Dental!

The staff is so incredible, friendly and knowledgeable. And Dr. Arne does impressive work and he’s so easy to work with. I have braces as an adult, which was a very hard choice to follow through on. I made the right choice going to Dr. Gundersen’s. It’s always a great experience for me at the dentist. And who can say that?!

Going to the dentist has never been “fun” for me and coming to a new city and selecting a new dentist just adds to the anxiety but I must say, this visit was stressfree and everyone was amazing. From working through the initial scheduling, the checkin, the procedures and the followup everything has been top notch. I have spent a career in the customer service delivery space and believe me when I say that there are a lot of places that could learn a thing or two from Gunderson Dental Care. I highly recommend them. Keep up the good work.

Love this dentist and staff! They are all professional and caring. I especially love that Dr. Gundersen is not aggressive about treatment. He is thorough in his exams and then offers treatment options without pressure. He is careful to go through all the options and offer his recommendation, but without pressure.

I'm a picky patient and quite like Gundersen Dental Care. Pleasant, friendly, and able to give immediate information on procedures and pricing without pushing the 'sale' of any services. Recommended to me by two families in Olympia, and I would definitely recommend them to others.

Was in need of being seen right away due to a major tooth ache, left a message on their voicemail Sunday evening and I received a call first thing Monday. They were able to work me in that same morning. Even though they had to refer me to a specialist their quick response was greatly appreciated. Thank you Sam and Dr. Gunderson and team for being so responsive to my needs. Patient for life!!
