Dr Serrano is absolutely fantastic. She made a new crown for me on site. I'm sad to see Dr Lane retire, but I feel he made an excellent choice in Dr Serrano taking over his practice and starting her own. Alma Dental Care's entire staff gets 5 stars from me. - Jim H.

Dr. Serrano made me feel comfortable having dental work. She explained everything ahead of time and constantly checked with me regarding my comfort level. I'm usually pretty nervous but I was very grateful for her extra support and reassurance. - Bonnie L.

The whole staff was warm and inviting. I felt well taken care of from the moment I walked into the door. Teresa and Dr. Serrano made me feel so comfortable! So happy to be a patient of Alma dental care. - Kelsey B.

I want to extend a very warm welcome to Alma Dental Care here in Petaluma. Maria Serrano, DDS was chosen by Dr. Rick Lane who has now retired. Dr. Lane over the years had assembled a team in his dental practice that was a "family" to all his patients. This was a seamless transition, as Maria Serrano has brought this wonderful team into her practice, including birds and music. She has been taking care of me, and I am proud to welcome her into our Petaluma Familyhood. - Molly F.

Excellent dentist office. Dr. Serrano and the whole staff are wonderful. Highly recommend. - Kelley C.
