Fantastic experience: Very friendly and nice stuff professional
Fantastic experience: This place above and beyond. I was a new patient today 1/23/25. Very nervous and I don’t see a dentist as often as I should. Part of that due to the last dentist I saw did a horrible job with fillings, and when I brought it to their attention did an even worse job attempting to fix it. But here no judgement felt at all, questions asked I was listened to and talked to. They did a lot more stuff than what I had ever had done at a dentist before. Def would recommend them, to family and friends and anyone who needs a good dentist. Staff is friendly from reception, to the hygienist straight to the dentist. They were really nice people! Still stand by this after my 6 month follow up. They don’t try to force you to do things and advise you accordingly. It’s funny I was told by the dentist I had seen I had receding gum lines. No I actually have short teeth.
Fantastic experience: First time patient. Dentist was kind and worked with my extreme anxiety. He also probably saved my life as I had an extreme infection in a tooth. Overall I feel no pain and I think work was done right!! I am moving all my family here. I don't think I could trust another Dentist. Good place for all dental needs.
Fantastic experience: I was nervous before I went. But Doctor Forrest was INCREDIBLE. He took his time to explain everything and made sure I understood the process etc. Dr. Forrest was compassionate, understanding, and caring. I chose wisely. Thank you Dr. Forrest, his nurse, and front desk personnel I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Markowski is an amazing dentist! He is excellent in every way. We moved out of the area but it’s so worth the drive. I’ve never been a fan of going to the dentist but he is very caring and has taken good care of me and my family. My adult children still make the drive too!
Fantastic experience: Finally found a dentist that wants to prevent future problems vs waiting for something to happen. Very pleased with Dr Forrest
Fantastic experience: Excellent care. Never had a dentist that was though with patients. Top of the line equipment.
Fantastic experience: Knowledgeable, welcoming staff from the moment you enter the practice. The process, procedures and expected result are discussed resulting in a terrific appointment. See everyone in 6 months!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Forrest always has the answers to my dental dilemmas! He has been my dentist for 25+ years. His crew is amazing as well!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Keck reset my crown that had fallen off. It’s always great experience at Berkshire.

I would strongly recomend Berkshire Dental to anybody needing a patient focused dentist.
Fantastic experience: Excellent care. Front desk gals were very friendly.
Fantastic experience: Today was my first visit at Berkshire Dental. I met with Dr. Forrest. I’m not sure if I was more excited to meet him or he was more excited to meet me! I am missing my four front teeth due to a broken bridge. I had implants placed at an oral surgeon and Dr. Forrest is going to finish the process. He is very very kind and allowed me to ask a lot of questions. He explained everything clearly to me. The entire staff was friendly. I’m excited to finish this process with Dr. Forrest, as he takes great pride in his work. I just found my forever dentist!
Fantastic experience: Dr Forrest and his team are great - my crown came off while I was on vacation but I was able to schedule an appointment when I returned and now I’m back in action. Dr did a great job of adjusting my bite too. Thanks!
