If you are looking for THE BEST Pediatric Dentist in town, look no further than the offices of Dr. Groat! When we first moved to the San Pedro area 9 years ago, a good friend recommended Dr. Groat to us and we are so thankful she did! From the wonderful girls in the front office (I love the fact that they try to make my life easier by scheduling our 3 children at the same time), to the dental hygienists, who are so sweet and friendly and make the kids feel at ease with the lovely way they talk to them, to Dr. Groat himself. Dr. Groat is very thorough and professional, with the most fantastic “bedside” manner! Now Dr. Groat’s son has come on board and we couldn’t be more thrilled! Dr. Chris has the same gentle manner as his father and is equally as thorough and professional. How I wish they did adult dentistry as well! As my friend did for me 9 years ago, I would highly recommend Dr. Groat and his awesome team. Reputation is everything, and he has THE BEST. Five Stars!!!!

“Dr. Groat has taken expert care of our four boy’s teeth for more than 15 years. We could not imagine a better experience! Everyone in the practice including the office staff, the dental hygienists, and of course Dr. Groat is kind, caring and very professional in all they do. We will continue recommending Dr. Groat to everyone we know that is looking for the best dental care for their children.

“Our four children receive the most exceptional dental care from Doctors Geoffrey and Christopher Groat! Their kind, loving, and professional attention has created the best dental experience in our 16 years of parenting. The comfort level provided by their practice far surpasses all of our expectations! The office staff is lovely and accommodating. Ms Denyce begins all of our appointments in a gentle, friendly, and conscientious manner. Both doctors provide outstanding and accurate dental care with honesty and compassion. Most importantly, their skilled dentistry is paired with the ability to communicate beautifully with young people. Our family is truly thankful on all levels!

“I have been visiting Dr. Groat’s dental office ever since I can remember. I have always enjoyed the kind people working there who always had a smile. I am moving on to college and will miss them dearly but will never forget the great times I have had. I know whoever goes there will not be disappointed.
