I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Schelkopf and the entire team at University Associates in Dentistry. I recently had restorative work done on my front teeth, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Everything from scheduling to the procedure itself was seamless, and the staff was friendly, professional, and made me feel comfortable every step of the way.
Dr. Schelkopf did an exceptional job, and my teeth look better than ever. I highly recommend University Associates in Dentistry to anyone looking for high-quality dental care!

For 17 years UAD has been my primary dental provider. Started with cleanings, an implant and then Invisalign. Dr. Marcus “Marty” is my dentist and he is a true master of his craft. Dr Marcus just completed a required crown due to a cracked molar over the holiday. I was a bit nervous as I’m not the biggest fan of the drilling noise. The procedure was completely painless and the end results are wonderful. Extremely grateful a close friend recommended Dr. Marcus and his team to me years back. Do yourself and your teeth a favor and visit UAD.

I absolutely loved my experience at UAD. Dr. Schelkopf restored my upper teeth. It was an excellent experience, I am very satisfied with the result and the process itself. The entire office staff is great - everyone is friendly and helpful, relaxing, good vibe. Dr. Schelkopf is caring, knowledgeable, and highly professional. I strongly recommend the office.

I have got 10 restorations with Dr Schelkopf and would like to thank the doctor and his truly amazing assistant Sonya for being kind, attentive and patient to me. These are my teeth before and after.

You are not going to find better than University Dental Associates! If you’re reading this review, it means you’ve made the wise decision to explore dental care. I congratulate you especially if you’ve been putting it off like I had. Shopping for a dental center was not unlike shopping for a new car. I explored five including that new teeth in 24 hours with the so called “smile consultant” to find out the process wasn’t really 24 hours when including the follow-up care. The “smile consultant” was a sly man trained in horrible sales practices designed to get one to sign on the bottom line NOW. They played on your self esteem more than the health benefits. I also witnessed them padding their 5 stars reviews on google.
You are going to find honesty, compassion and expert care at University Dental Associates. From the front office reception staff to the dentists, they are professionals and experts in their fields of work. They have a passion for their work and delighted in sharing their expertise with me as their patient.
I enjoyed the interactions they had with each other as well as with me. I was also impressed with their concern for my comfort. Although it is a busy dental center, there’s a calming effect as soon as you arrive. They are going to make sure you have everything you need for a comfortable recovery.
Many people have asked me if I was afraid of the dentist. I wasn’t, I was afraid the bill and rightly so. You’re probably finding out dental work is expensive. University Dental Associates worked with me on costs and treatment choices. No good dental work is cheap, but I have no regrets in spending the money. It did take some budgeting, but again I have no regrets.
I would like to end this review with my sincere thanks to assistants Belen and Nicole. You two are very much the brand of University Dental Associated. To Dr. Beaur, I love your no-nonsense approach to my teeth when they wouldn’t behave like you wanted them to behave. To Dr. Marcus, words cannot express my appreciation and gratitude for you. I came to you all with a lot of trepidation and a fair amount of shame. I left our final visit with a new strength to live life that I didn’t know I needed.
