Manvel Dental & Implant Center

If you’ve ever felt anxious walking into a dental office, this place will completely change your perspective. Our experience at Manvel Dental & Implant Center today was truly exceptional. Dental visits have always brought anxiety for both my fiancé and me, and we have spent a long time and a lot of money searching for a place that genuinely feels like home. From check in to check out, every single person delivered a level of care we have been hoping to find for so long. They do not just put the customer first, they put YOU as a person first. Your questions, your concerns, and your goals are truly heard and understood. It feels like the purpose behind everything they do. Dr. Collins is incredibly knowledgeable and engaging. He takes the time to explain things in a way that makes you feel informed, comfortable, and cared for. It is clear he is focused on addressing the root of the issue, not just the symptoms. We are excited to begin this journey and truly grateful to have found this place.

Dr Collins is superior in his Dentistry, airway care, and holistic medicine, and his staff is very accommodating. The considerable disconnect occurs when Dr. Collins recommends great (alternative) treatments that aren’t covered under your insurance, yet the disclosure of out of pocket expenses from his billing support level is lost. In addition, wait times for procedures are much longer than expected seemingly dental assistants and support personnel seem stretched and unorganized.

My first visit to this dentist office was excellent. But it starts from the call i made to schedule a appointment. Juanita took care of everything i needed to set me up. I ended up not having insurance which i thought i did. Juanita found out for me as well. Then today was my appointment. Everything went well. Everyone was very pleasant. I had a tooth extracted and the Cowboy Dentist did a great job. My thanks to all the employees at Manvel Dental. It was a pleasure meeting everyone and thank you. I appreciate all of you.

Today was my very first visit to this office, and from the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted with kindness. The receptionist was very nice and polite, and the gentleman who assisted with my X-rays immediately noticed my anxiety. He made me feel calm by keeping a friendly conversation going and explaining every step of the process. The dentist himself was unlike any other I’ve met. His knowledge about overall health—and how it connects to dental care and the whole body was impressive. He took the time to explain everything I was dealing with in detail. The entire staff was amazing, attentive, and genuinely cared about my concerns. I’m so happy I made the decision to come today and truly feel blessed to have been heard and cared for by such a compassionate team. 2/10/2026 I’m updating my review with the intention of being fair and constructive. My first visit was a genuinely positive experience, which is why I felt comfortable returning. During my follow-up appointment, I came in because I was experiencing significant pain and had concerns about a possible infection. While a treatment plan and associated costs were discussed, the dentist did not personally examine me during that visit, and recommendations were communicated through an assistant. I ultimately left the appointment still in considerable pain and with noticeable swelling, without having had a direct evaluation by the dentist. For patients—especially new patients who are experiencing pain—direct assessment and clear communication from the provider can make a meaningful difference in feeling informed, safe, and truly cared for. I share this with grace and understanding that days can get busy, but also with the hope that patient-centered best practices remain the priority. Patients aren’t just numbers, and feeling seen and heard matters.

I was hesitant to write this review but here it goes. Overall the staff was pleasant, however, there was one staff member that found it her mission to keep saying "she doesnt have insurance" to any staff member who was within hearing distance. It became quite annoying. Is a person without insurance treated differently than a person with insurance? Hmmm, just wondering 🤔. The initial exam was a quicker and less thorough than I anticipated but it was pleasant overall. I didn’t like being asked to try getting help from my family and friends to help pay for this extremely expensive procedure. I was not given any alternative, much less expensive options, like snap in dentures. I left there feeling a bit deflated and ready to to throw in the towel. I really can't see getting into large debt at this time, investment or not, with no other options being offered. This is too rich for my blood, thanks but no thanks. It was very nice meeting the "cowboy dentist"
