Testimonials:

Patient 1: Dr. Zimmer has done crowns, bridges and dental veneers for me. I appreciate the fact that he and his staff are dedicated to providing high quality dental care, including preventive care. I have been happy with the treatment success, and very impressed with professional manner in which Dr. Zimmer and his entire staff provide dental services to his patients at a reasonable cost. I definitely recommend this dentist to others.

For a number of years Valerie Gonzales has routinely cleaned my teeth, and has worked with me to decrease pockets between my teeth and gums, thus reducing the risk of periodontal disease. She has been highly professional and efficient in providing this care.

Patient 2: About 3 years ago, I had veneers done to my 2 front teeth. I was amaged at the results when Dr. Zimmer was all done. I now have more confidence in my smile, and I feel that my front teeth look so natural. He did a great job!

Last year I had a gold crown put in on the top left molar. Again, Dr. Zimmer and his staff were very kind, patient and efficient. They were concerned about any pain I might have had, but it was minimal.
I have great confidence in Dr. Zimmer and his staff. The facility is pleasant and very clean.
I do not have dental insurance, but I feel that his fees are very fair and competitive.
I will definitely recommend Dr. Zimmer to others without a doubt.

Valerie Gonzales is my Dental Hygienist. I have been seeing her ever since she was at dental hygiene school at UNM. She does a very thorough job and is very gentle. When I leave there, my teeth feel so clean.

Patient 3: I have had fillings replaced, crowns put in and veneers added to my front top teeth and am very pleased with the results of all the dental work I have had done with Dr. Zimmer. Any pain has been minimal and he and his staff are always making sure I am comfortable. The office is in a good location and is very clean and pleasant. Office staff is all extremely friendly and Dr. Zimmer has a very good chair-side manner. He is always enthusiastic about his work and takes great pride in giving people not only good dental work but more beautiful smiles. My insurance has helped me a great deal with the costs and I feel that Dr. Zimmer's prices are reasonably competitive with other dentists in the city. I would definitely recommend Dr. Zimmer to others.

My hygienist is very sweet and thorough. I always love how clean my teeth feel when we are done.

Patient 4: When I first called Dr. Zimmer's office I was in a desperate situation and did not know who I could turn to and trust with the dental work that I needed at the time. Half of my front tooth had broken off and I was in a very emotional state of mind; let me emphasize my front tooth was half gone! The predicament I found myself in with the front tooth half broken off was caused by the current dentist that I had had for many years and did not trust that particular dentist to do anymore work on my teeth and I was going to have a hard time trusting anyone else. I spent several hours surfing the Web and making phone calls to dentist offices in the Albuquerque area and also asked co-workers for referrals to their family dentist. I could not get a good gut feeling on any of the offices that I called so I kept searching, and then I came upon Dr. Zimmer's Web site. His website showed before and after pictures of individuals that he had provided dental services for and was impressed by the results in the pictures. I also, liked his reviews and read that he had been named Albuquerque's Top Dentist in “Albuquerque, The Magazine,” I could only pray and hope that he would be a good dentist and that he would provide the extra care that I needed for my front tooth. Now, I can testify that Dr. Zimmer did a superb job on my front teeth and I am and have been extremely happy with the work that he provided and the care that he and his staff have given my husband and me. If you are in a similar situation or have been looking for a good knowledgeable and experienced dentist I would not hesitate to call on Dr. Zimmer.

Sincerely, Connie G.

Patient 7: Dr. Zimmer's office is a truly caring environment that I look forward to going to. I left my last dentist feeling like a "wounded person;" I had some personal issues about myself and dentists that I needed to let go of and move beyond. I have been able to do so under the care of Dr. Zimmer and his staff. The regular care of the hygienist is simply the best -- personal & thorough. Dr. Zimmer's manner and abilities are wonderful, as well. I, too, highly recommend Dr. Zimmer and his outstanding hygienists.

Patient 8: In the last few years that I have been going to my new dentist, Dr. James Zimmer, I have received nothing less than exceptional service from the minute you walk into his office. His staff is professional, personable, caring, and of equal importance, his administrative staff files dental claims expeditiously and flawlessly. Dr. Zimmer's work is done with such perfection by both him and his compassionate assistants. My crowns are beautiful and match the color of the rest of my teeth. Dr. Zimmer takes quality time with each of his patients, gives them the attention they require, and most importantly, he is gentle and procedures are pain free, which is so important to me. Without question, I highly recommend Dr. James Zimmer and his outstanding hygienists.

Patient 9: Dr. Zimmer is a great cosmetic dentist! I had my six front teeth crowned and the results were beautiful and natural looking! Dr. Zimmer was very friendly, professional, and he listens to what you would like in a beautiful smile! I was very grateful to find this dentist because so many claim to be both general and cosmetic but they really aren't. I highly recommend him.

Patient 10: Dr. Zimmer and his staff take an extremely proactive approach to caring for their patients. Going to the Dentist has always bee an uncomfortable necessity for me. My history was extensive starting out as a kid when I had to get braces, and learned I had too many teeth for my small mouth. Needless to say, I spent time having oral surgery, and getting my braces tightened, (teenager in the 1980s). I made numerous visits throughout my life to protect the investment my parents made, by getting regular check-ups and cleanings.

When Dr. Zimmer took over the Albuquerque practice from Dr. Carlsen, I was a bit wary, because I was comfortable with Dr. Carlsen. I quickly learned that Dr. Zimmer is a perfectionist in Dentistry, and really strived to stay on top of the latest trends of best equipment and materials to use, as well as Cosmetic procedures. Having had much dental care throughout my life (including getting my wisdom teeth extracted), I knew this is a professional I could trust. His advice and diagnosis of issues that come up with my teeth have been resolved (fillings, crowns, etc.) and always in a comfortable environment, and pain-free.

The entire staff is friendly, and extremely professional. Everyone always makes you feel like they are happy to see you and they all enjoy their jobs. Their competency in what they do really helps to take away any fear or hesitation I have ever had in going to a dentist. The staff even calls the next day (after a filling or procedure) to ensure all is well, and the tooth or teeth are feeling ok.

Currently, my teenage son got his braces off, and he is now also a patient of Dr. Zimmer’s, and I know he will always get the best care possible. I have recommended him to other friends whom have also felt Dr. Zimmer and his staff were exceptional in their trade, and have seen improvement in their teeth, and continue to return, knowing they will be valued and cared for, by the staff.

Patient 12: Thank you very much for your excellent rebuilding/repair of my lower front tooth. It feels perfectly normal now. After several weeks of my tongue constantly seeking out the damaged area and biting my lower inside lip, the relief is wonderful. I smile with confidence now. You do more than dental work. You provide self confidence and mental health. Until now my dental work was basic repair and prevention. It’s amazing how much better I feel now. Thank you again.
