Rayana Sanchez

Absolutely love this place and everything about it! Ive been getting a lot of work done and im satisfied with every bit of it!

Anthony Skrypka

I recently had a Dental Cleaning appointment scheduled with Dr. Forde's office and I knew that I needed a filling as well. I called to see if I could get them both done in the same day and I was pleasantly surprised that they were able to schedule my cleaning and filling in the same appointment. The dental hygienist was very thorough and did an outstanding job! I was slightly apprehensive about the filling since it was for a front tooth, but Dr. Forde did an excellent job! The filling looks great and even surpassed my expectations! Dr. Forde has an affinity for making you feel at ease, and I highly recommend his office for any dental work you may need. I would like to thank everyone in his office for a great appointment!!!

DENTAL EMERGENCY - We all know the anxiety that can cause. My emergency occurred late last night and rest assured Dr. Forde at Family Cosmetic Dental Design is your go to Dentist. I called and spoke to Meah who answered the call at 745AM, 15 minutes before office hours. WOW! She scheduled my appointment same day and Karen Dr. Forde's assistant and Dr. Forde did an AMAZING job on my tooth. Dr. Forde is now our general dentist practitioner this day forward. Go see him, you will be VERY pleased.

Earl R. NECONIE

I’ve always enjoyed Dr. Colin Forde’s dental visits! Their process for having (8) implants upper & lower, provided a smooth transition to eating steak, corn on a cob, apples, broccoli and salads, which is basically, the way I ate before, with confidence, within (1) year! I needed (3) bone grafts to rebuild the area for the implants to be put into place and was eating my regular diet, just cutting everything into smaller pieces. I still ate corn on the cob, but I would use a knife to cut the corn off the cob (lol)! There isn’t anything that I eat, that frightens me...I eat with confidence and smile even when I sleep! Thanks to Dr. Colin Forde, his awesome staff, Kat, Mia & all the others, for making me feel at home in the dentist’s chair...smiling in 24/7!

Melissa C

Best doc I have had in a long time! I recommend all my family and friends!!

8/29/2019 MY REVIEW STANDS! EXCELLENT DENTIST *Update 9/27/2018 - The Dentures fit so well the first time. Now I had a reline done at this office. The Uppers suction in place so well I need no bonding to hold them in place. The Lowers needs so little bonding to hold in place. This DDS Colin Forde is the very best in 3 states! Kat is Fantastic and Meah is the most wonderful... Could NOT have gone better. I HIGHLY recommend! *Update: 4-29-18 Dr Forde is the best there is! Recently removed a bone spur for me, Today is the First Day I finally was able to eat raw vegetables, salad and steak without any pain at all! Dr Forde is the best dentist there is! *Update: 4/02/18-Denture Adjustment: Uppers suction in place so well. It is better that these suction in place Rather Than having to glue them in place and worry about slip or dropping. EXCELLENT! I have been to dentists in 3 States. As Dentists go, Colin Forde is the BEST of all Dentists in Oklahoma, Colorado, New Mexico = THERE IS NONE Better! FANTASTIC Balance of Professional/Businessman/Humanitarian! If you need Dental Assistant for help there is NONE better than Kat! I consider myself Blessed to go to this Office for Help/Assistance! 3/19/2018 - Dr Colin Forde DDS best there is! I highly recommend Dr Colin Forde. Just picked up my final dentures and so far fit very well with no pain. With the extractions the ONLY pain I ever felt was the first injection to numb the area THEN NO pain after that shot. Dr Forde is very concerned about his patients best and I have always KNOWN him to make everything right. Meah is absolutely Fantastic, Kat and Karen are the best. With Previous dentists I passed out in chair and the dentist could not care less, Others only cared about what was Cosmetic not restoring teeth to function. Dr Colin Forde and his staff have full caring about the patient, what is right and correct! Dr Forde is Honest, Caring, Concerned, Does the right thing! Best Dentist I have ever known! I can not thank Dr Colin Forde enough NOR can I praise him high enough for his hard work and fantastic patient care. See this Dentist, he is your BEST option in all of New Mexico!!! Now if ONLY MD's in NM had such Honesty, Caring, Concern for their patients as Dr Forde!.

Irene Castillo

Awesome....very friendly service, I love my new dentures,

lostin time

I absolutely love Kat! Great service every time!

amadeo modigliani

Right out of the gate I have to say I wouldn't go anywhere else to have my teeth cleaned even if it was free! Ms. Betty is awesome! and All the ladies at the front desk too! And also Dr. Forde. Actually everyone is really nice and I know its rare to find a business of any kind where everyone is nice so thank you very much!! I've never been more comfortable sitting on a chair with my mouth open and with someone with a very sharp tool poking my teeth. I know. that was too much haha but I really trust Ms. Betty. She is really good at what she does. So if you are looking for a good dental office this is the place to go!!

Timothy Frohlick

A number 1 dental care . Dr Forde and his staff are among the very best dental professionals in the USA or Canada.

Priscilla Garcia

Loved this place, no judgement....

Amanda Hite

Sketchy office, sterilization is questionable, tiny treatment rooms, old equipment and a strange smell throughout the office.

Nate J

The best! Prompt and extremely friendly! Dr Forde is amazing!

James Sanchez

As wonderful an experience as one can have at a dental appointment. Dr Forde is kind and highly professional. Betty is simply the best hygienist there is anywhere!

Marlene Hernandez

This is truly the best dentist I have ever gone to. Never feel anything. Highly recommend. Mia and Dr ford are truly amazing.

Really nice staff that won't keep you waiting and does a great job

Bngo Btch

Went in for a consultation to address a dental problem I have been too afraid to deal with and walked out with a new family dentist. Dr. Forde was genuinely compassionate and clear about the steps needed. When I didn't understand something he immediately recognized this and clarified until the "say what?" look was off my face without me actually having to say it. I have set up exams and cleanings for my children and have convinced my entire family to switch. Something else that you don't often see is staff who love their job. All the techs and the receptionist were friendly and professional and made me feel welcome, at home and confident that I was going to be getting the best care you can get in the city. This is also reinforced by the numerous high tech machines and services throughout the office. I like it when a doctor/dentist/lawyer etc has a humble office. This tells me that a) they are not over charging b) they invest in the client and not over priced decor and c) they are not concerned with having a fancy office that is bigger and better than their competitors all because they care about you and their profession. So if I didn't make it clear...Dr. Forde good, office good...I recommend.

Adan Trujillo

Great experience! These guys are now my full time dentists! They took me in under an emergency tooth ache and got me taken care of immediately. Made me feel real comfortable and relaxed. Dr. Colin Forde and his staff are the best. Thanks for everything. Made my life ao much easier.

Vickie Schmidt

It's always a great experience for me. Betty is very gentle and quick.

Khaotic Kool Breeze

Everyone at Dr. Forde's office is great. My children and I are always greeted with a warm smile and a friendly "Hello." They are really working with me on getting my teeth fixed because they were just far too gone and I was really getting to the point where I never wanted to smile again. Now, that I am getting my dentures, I will throw out the window the fact of me never wanting to smile again. However, I am still going to try and work on making my teeth permanent.

Lisa Isenberger

Got me in for a same day emergency visit to re-cement my traditional bridge (installed by a different dentist) which had come off during lunch. I'm a nervous dental patient and they were very gentle and understanding and got it resolved. I always have a good experience with Dr Forde and staff and highly recommend.

Shelah Howe

Very pleasant for a dentist lol. Highly recommended!

Mat L

Excellent experience as a first time patient. Dr. Forde was very professional and personable. I was treated for a chipped tooth, that had been previously "fixed" by another dentist. He explained the options and how this form of treatment would work. He was very patient and took time to ensure the work was properly completed. Staff was excellent, professional, and friendly. We have found our new dentist!

D Wash

Excellent service and care

Linda Saul

Had a crown break off. Called and they got me in within an hour. Great service. Great people.

Donald Phifer

Dr. Ford is a brilliant and capable dentist with a great supporting staff.

Marla Garcia

I have been with Betty the hygienist for yrs, she is very good at what she does. I’ve had several crowns in my time but Dr. Forde was just the best. He had to remove other crowns that weren’t done right and that also was a good experience. He didn’t cut my lips or gums or hurt me. Would never go anywhere else.

Meredith Gould

Wonderful experience from appointment booking through teeth cleaning and dentist review. Beth Ann's dental hygienist work was thorough and mindful of my various tooth and gum sensitivities Actually looking forward to returning in January for some dental work with dentist, Colin Ford.

Ivan Lucero

Awesome dentist and staff have my teeth looking and feeling nice

Crystal Stover

I can't say enough about this practice! From the front desk to Dr. Forde, everyone is great! I moved to Albuquerque mid-implant process, still needing crown placement. Dr. Forde did an excellent job. It's been several months and the implants are great! Moving and finding new services is very stressful. I found the best dentist on the first try!

Katherine Morgan

The experience was great from beginning to end. The receptionist was friendly and helpful. I didn't have to wait. They were thorough and gentle with the cleaning, which everyone wants at the dentist. Dr. Ford was friendly and competent.

April Ingram

We love it here ❤️

Drea Love

Everyone here was very nice everyone here treated me with respect did not make me feel any kind of way as in embarrassed. I would definitely recommend anyone going to this place the staff is amazing Dr Colin Ford is an amazing doctor was not expecting the greeting as I came into the door. I was very surprised of how one of those specific employees there even seen that I was Having 1@@ a very hard time getting there at my appointment time I ended up getting there about 40 minutes late and she was even offering to come pick me up herself. It was just a joke to the doctor anyways I love this place and I actually felt some hope for my teeth that I've been very embarrassed and very hidden and I don't even leave the house because of it they gave me hope that I can look beautiful again I hope that I can get what I need done cuz I do not have the money for implants and I really hope partials don't fall out like they say they do but I have confidence9

Stephanie Procter

I had to get emergency services on a weekend and the doctor and his staff are amazing...I wouldn't go anywhere else. They are friendly and honest and just great all around.

Jazlin Mendoza

My experience was great, I’ve feared going to the dentist . I’ve had bad experiences since I was young. After three years I decided to give the dentist and staff another opportunity. All are very welcoming and very positive. I did not feel judged not felt scared. I did feel nervous , but it went away once the whole cleaning started. I felt very comfortable and I’m glad someone recommended me to Dr Forde office. I will definitely recommend this Dentist office Thank you for your service.
