Coming from a medical and dentistry profession family, and also going between three different dentists, Dr. Filbrun is the most trusted and respected for me and my family.Dr. Filbrun diagnosed my condition by a quick exam and look! He treated my condition where 2 other dentists could not. They caused me unnecessary treatments for 2 years that did not work and made the condition even worse. Not to mention the expensive and pointless cost!Dr. Filbrun, I forever am thankful to you, your expertise and your staff for treating me.

We’ve been with Dr. Filbrun since we moved to Modesto in the late 80s. He’s taken care of our whole family, all five kids growing up, some even scheduled dentist visits on breaks home from college rather than change to care closer to school, because he’s always taken good care of us, over and above the call of duty. 100% highly recommend.

I established as a new patient with Dr. Cruz and I had an overall excellent experience. We fixed a previous filling on my first visit and it was a breeze. I would highly recommend this dentist office. Everyone was friendly and everything was explained clearly.

New hygienist Alyssa, who was great. Technology too for some things; they have an Xray machine thats perfect for gaggers plus for fluoride treatment. I have sensitive teeth but Melinda introduced me to Floridex toothpaste years ago, such a game changer. Dr Filbrun is and has always been conscientious about no pain. Been going there for years. Definitely recommend!

I had been dealing with a painful toothache for 2 weeks having appointment after appointment cancelled in Tracy area. Due to double booking. I was desperate and searched for an emergency dentist. I came across Dr. Galen's webpage and called with no hesitation. After talking to the receptionist who made me feel welcomed I made an appointment. To my surprise they had one available the next day. I was nervous when I got there but after meeting the friendly staff and Dr. Galen all that faded away quickly. I had a wisdom tooth extraction and it felt like it was out in a split of a sec with no pain at all. I was so impressed and I have to say my fear for the dentist office is gone. THANK YOU BEAUTIFUL STAFF OF Dr. Galen and THANK YOU DR. GALEN FOR THE PHENOMENAL JOB YOU DO! I will definitely recommend you to all my friends and family. Jordan and Michelle extra thanks for your making me feel so welcomed 😊

I have spent most life hiding from the dentist. The staff and Dr Filbrum are the most friendly and professional people. I have had several root canals and crowns done here.. my wife as well is a client. The work is amazing, quick and efficient. They came highly recommended to me, and I will only recommend them to my family and friends. The best!!!

Always a great visit. I recently switched to this new dentist about one year ago when mine was closed due to Covid. I’m glad I made the switch, as there was a massive amount of tartar buildup below my gumline that just wasn’t being cleaned properly. Each cleaning it’s getting better and better and my gums are no longer bleeding and just as a whole a healthier set of teeth. Very happy and recommend to any others

Dr. Filbrun and his staff are great! The only dentist I’ve ever been to who makes me feel like he is interested in the health of my teeth and gums, while keeping in mind my wallet!
