Richard T. Hale, DDS

Dr. Hale is amazing dentist including his entire staff. I have several local dentists to choose from but will not change. It is always worth the hour drive to Ottawa. The staff is always friendly and cheerful with warm welcome and greeting every time. The prices are fair and reasonable with no wait time.

Excellent as always, everyone in my family has used Dr. Hales office for all dental issues and cleanings, for years. Dr. Hale did an excellent job with my dad recently with a tooth extraction, no pain and already healing quickly. I had my teeth cleaning cleaning on 2/25/22, as usual it went well, super quick and efficient. I have had different dental technicians over the years with my twice yearly cleanings and they have all been great. I would recommend Dr Hale for anyone looking for a dentist.

Today I had my first appointment with Dr. Hale. I went in for a routine cleaning and check. Kitti did my cleaning and, as always, did a great job! She is always very kind and caring, and willing to put in the extra effort to make me feel comfortable with the process. I love Kitti!!
I met Dr. Hale for the first time today and he was very nice. I plan to continue with Dr. Hale now that my former dentist has retired.

Dr. Hale is the best dentist and person I've ever met. I had been to another dentist that gave me a crown that abcessed and I was in so much pain but Dr. Hale opened his office up just for me, on a holiday weekend and removed the bad crown and infection and saved my life. I have NEVER met a dentist that truly cares so much for his patients and is so professional. I read some of the negative reviews and I think if the problems were communicated to him, I know he would have helped you also. He is absolutely amazing and the staff is kind and considerate. BEST DENTIST EVER !!!!!!!!

Great office. Had a few semi-major procedures preformed here in the last 18 months since moving to the area. You couldn’t ask for a more friendly, competent and effective team than the one that Dr. Hale has assembled at both locations. I can’t remember the last time I left a review about anything, but it’s been years. That’s how well today’s root canal and bridge buildup went. 5 stars.

Dr. Hale was recommended to our family by our Dentist in Wichita, Ks. when we moved to Ottawa, Ks. That was over 20 years ago. My son, wife, and I have been seeing Dr. Hale ever since then. He is always on time, very professional, and extremely knowledgeable. He goes above and beyond taking care of all our dental procedures. His staff does a great job with cleanings and the office is exceptionally clean with modern equipment. We would recommend Richard T. Hale, DDS very highly.

I want to thank Dr. Richard Hale and his staff of really being awesome!!! I had never been to Dr. Hale before. I called his after hours line and they got me in to see him the next morning. He extracted a tooth that was really hurting. I called my regular dentist telling them of my pain, they could not get me in until August 20th. From now on Dr. Hale will be my dentist as he went above and beyond to help me. I will refer anyone and everyone to Dr. Hale.

The thing I like most about Dr. Hale is that he's very attentive to your needs. He really cares about his patients and he has a super nice staff. Everyone has always been respectful to me and others, and I think that's such an underrated part of a dental office experience.

Dr. Hale is one of the greatest doctors I have ever been too. I feel no shots in my gums or anything. I also don't feel any pain when he pulls a tooth, he's great. His office is real clean, and appears to be really nice! I love it there.

I have gone to both, Ottawa and Garnett offices for appointments. The staff is extremely friendly, I am immediately greeted with warmth when I walk in the door and the hygienists as well as doctor Hale are great about listening to my concerns, as well as being transparent about theirs. 10/10 would recommend.

Been my dentist since I was a kid. I even puked on him once! The staff is friendly and nice. They're very good at working around my orthodontic schedule and fitting me in. I had a brief time where Dr Hale wasn't my dentist and he has offered to fix the previous work done that is shoddy. All that being said his prices can be a bit higher than other dentists but totally worth it in my experience.

I've been going to Dr. Hale for a long time. I've never had a bad experience. Had a very traumatic baseball related injury where I had the top front 4 and the bottom front 4 teeth knocked out when I was 13 and he was able to save the teeth and put everything back together. I'll never use another dentist. Thank you Dr. Hale and staff!

First time visit with Dr. Hale. I can't express how great the experience was. The staff is friendly, Dr. Hale is great and they never made me feel uncomfortable. I will be taking my family to him. I would highly recommend that office to anyone looking for a new Dentist.

Dr Hale is knowledgeable and considerate. He solved a 2 or 3 year problem in a couple of visits. He found out what needed to be done and preformed the procedure with courtesy and confidence. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff, who were always friendly and helpful. Will continue to go there as needed. Thank you

Clean. Prompt. Love the text reminders of appt date and time. Delightful office staff, courteous, happy. I suffered a dental trauma at 7 years old, thanks for their kindness, consideration, and gentleness, only my knuckles turn white (instead of me). Nice job!!!!!

I'm a brand new patient right now but have enjoyed it so far. I waited less than 5 minutes for my first appointment, so that was good. Everything has been fine so far and Dr. Hale is a nice guy.

I have only been a patient since August, so not very long. I don't wait hardly at all when I go in, maybe five minutes at most. I'm comfortable in the chair during my cleanings, I really don't mind it. Dr. Hale is a good dentist.

Super happy with the work Mr Hale did for me. Office staff great. Very friendly group of people. Did great work for me.

I've gone to Dr Hale for 30+ years since i was a kid. I haven't lived in ottawa since 2004 but i've driven back to them from overland park, paola, and now spring hill because the service is great and everyone there is Awesome.

This place is the greatest, the only place I will go. I recommend it for everyone.
