My 16 year old son had his first cavity. He does not like needles, Dr. Weimer and her staff are the most polite, respectful, pleasant people to deal with. They took very good care of my son. He was very pleased and relieved after it was done.

I have been going to Wendy's for many years and can safely say that no one could find a more professional, personal Dentist in the Kansas City area.

Dr. Weimer and her staff are always a pleasure, even when you do not like going to the dentist. They go out of their way to make you comfortable. You are part of the family.

Brenda the hygienist is the best! She is friendly, answers all your questions, and leaves your teeth feeling great. Dr. Weimer is an ace when she works on your teeth, smooth, relatively painless, and no complications after
HAPPY PATIENT
Hands down the best dentist I have ever been to! From the moment you step into the office to the time you leave, it’s very warm and welcoming. Very professional, clean and good at what they do. So glad I made the switch to Weimer Dental :)
HAPPY PATIENT
My family has been coming to Dr. Weimer for 15 years and couldn’t ask for a more caring and professional dental clinic. This is top of the line dental care. All female clinic is the best in the KC northland.
HAPPY PATIENT
As usual I had an excellent session for a small filling and regular cleaning. This visit I asked if Weimer Dental would donate some dental care kits to a womens' shelter near my house, Christine's Place at 5102 Independence Ave. They weren't able to provide kits in plastic cases like they give to patients but Brenda, a dental assistant there, put together a boxful of kits in bags to be donated to the shelter. They were very grateful for the kits as they will go to women who have little time or money for such supplies.
HAPPY PATIENT
I don't like going to the dentist, but my son and I really liked going to Dr. Weimer. It's been the best dentist experience I've ever had. The whole staff was super nice, the dental hygientist was very personable, would take breaks and always asked how I was doing and if I was comfortable. I'm actually looking forward to my next cleaning!
HAPPY PATIENT
Brenda always does such a great job cleaning my teeth! Dr Weimer is always so calm and easy going. Great dentist!
