Im so, SO glad my friend recommended Family & Cosmetic Dental Design! Having been out of the dental loop for over 4 years, I was a bit anxious heading in--but from my appointment confirmation with Mia (who was incredibly friendly, helpful, and thorough!) to my x-rays and cleaning with Paulina (who was awesome and communicative throughout everything, and answered all of my questions!), to Dr. Fordes very kind initial checking in (Ive never had a dentist do that--what a nice touch) and final checkup, I couldnt be happier. Ive never been to a dental practice where the staff was so in sync, everyone was so friendly and informative, and humor was threaded throughout the conversations. Hands-down the best dental visit Ive had in a decade! Im so pleased to write that Ive found my new dentist. Theyre wonderful!

Whenever I go this dental office, I’m always greeted and treated with great respect, from the staff. I consider Dr. Forde to be a very gentle and kind man, who does good dental work. I have most of my experience with the dental hygienist, who is also very gentle, and does a great job cleaning my teeth. Thank you.

Paulina, is such a wonderful hygienist. She always lets me know when I’m doing good & when I or where I need to improve my habits to help improve my dental health. Colon Fordre DDS PC has a clean and Comfortable office with Welcoming and Friendly staff. Highly recommended

Great Receptionist....very satisfied with first time visit and dental analysis.Replanted a previously done implant by another dentist. Dr Forde and staff worked diligently to make the new implant to fit. I am highly satisfied and best yet....no pain for me! I highly recommend this dental clinic for any dental service!

Great welcoming atmosphere! Dr. Colin and his staff make going to the dentist a wonderful experience!

I always have a very pleasant experience at Family & Cosmetic Dental Design. The staff’s fantastic, professional and very kind. Going to the dentist has never been easier.

I have been going to this dentist for several years and have had several procedures done including; crowns, fillings, caps, x rays, and teeth cleaning. His assistant, Mia, is very polite, helpful, and knowledgeable, concerning insurance claims and estimates. Hygienist, Betty is the best. Very gentile and thorough. And of course Dr. Forde is the best. He is very knowledgeable in Dentistry and caring with his patients. I highly recommend this dentist and his wonderful staff. A+ rating.

My first visit was great! Dr. Forde and staff were all super nice. I felt very comfortable. Paulina did a great job cleaning my teeth.

Dr. Forde is the most amazing dentist I have come across. He takes time to listen to your issues and resolve them effectively with consideration to your budget and overall wellbeing. I highly recommend him and his dental team.

Very welcoming and understanding. Cant say I look forward to going back, because its the dentist! But I feel I am in very good hands. That means a lot.

I needed to be seen unexpectedly and I was able to get an appointment. The team in wonderful.

After the whitening session, they give you an already open box of the kit you’re taking home. The whitening kit only had one mouth guard and one tub of whitening. The mouth guard is cheap. I used it once and my teeth went through the guard. I payed $377 to have my teeth whitening, in my opinion wasn’t worth it if they can’t provide quality product. You may as well just $500 at other clinics and get way better results with actual products that work. That won’t break after one use. Very disappointed.

The associates from the time you walk in till the time you leave are great. They are Professional and kind. They made my visit very pleasant

The staff there are super kind and informative. They are willing to work with you on how they put in the implants as far as payments go, that is to say that you dont need to do all of them at once you can do them in sections. I felt very genuinely like they cared about me and my specific needs. Recommend highly

Very comforting, patient and understanding.Will continue to return with my family.Best environment ever!!!!

Im so glad I found this place! Doctor Forde is really nice as are the rest of the staff. Very friendly and welcoming!

Had a great first experience with this dentist. He was very kind and explained all of the different options for my care. Paulina, the hygienist, was very good, put me at ease (I have some anxiety around dentists)! Overall a good experience and my wife expressed the same.

Was helped instantly and my schedule was worked around. Great customer service.

Great hygienist. Pauline is Gentle yet thorough. Dr Forde is a great dentist, Not only supremely skilled but also extremely friendly and caring.

I have never had a bad experience. Always excellent. Great staff supporting the work of Dr. Colin Forde who sets the high standard. All are warm, friendly, efficient and professional. Im so fortunate to have discovered this dentist when I first moved to Albuquerque in 2018. I have nothing but praise for Colin Forde DDS and all his staff and coworkers.Gary Morrison

Where do I start??? My whole family has been apart of Dr. Forde and his team for many many years. Dr.Forde is the MAN. I wish I can make it bigger, but hes just that good. We have so many pretenders trying to be the best, but how if that spot has been took. He is patient, super sweet and most importantly he knows his stuff. Hes an amazing person. Now Ms. Mia, pretty much the right hand lady in that office and Ill tell you what, shes on point. She dont miss a beat! Shes is such a wonderful woman with a great spirit and hella good looking 😉 Okay for ALL the hygienist there, hands down the BEST. They get all into them crevices. Makes you smile from ear to ear. This is a well organized team that cares and had a passion in what they do. Not just there as a job and we appreciate it. Love this place and we thank you for allowing all of us be apart of all of you!!!

Wonderful staff. First appt felt like a fam reunion

The clinical staff is exceedingly professional and knowledgeable.

First time seeing a dentist in many years. The entire staff was friendly, very professional and made my experience as good as it can get. I will definitely be back for cleanings and any other dental work that I may need in the future.Tim

I thought my visit was very productive and informative.

I dont really have any comments. Havent been a patient that long. The times, I have had an appt. Its been, in and not. No much of a waiting time.

The staff and experience was better than I could of imagined. They made sure all my questions were answered and that I was comfortable at all times. They treat their patients like family.

Very awesome of the office to be open on labor day! It helped me out alot being off and able to go to my appointment! Also he is helping employees while they help their kids attend online school!! That makes me respect Dr Fordes business even more!! We are all struggling some way during this pandemic and any boss willing to help his employees and their children means alot to me!! I wish I could remember my hygienists name but she was fantastic too!! Great job at keeping the office clean and social distancing!! Help support businesses that are supporting their employees and families during this time !!

Betty is great. She cleans well and is gentle!

The staff and Doctor are really friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Family and Cosmetic Dental Design to anyone!

5 STARS TO THIS BUSINESS! IT WAS PLEASANT, efficient and friendly. Betty, my hygienist was fast and very thoughtful. She answered all of my questions and had the foresight to get my next two appts. The receptionist - office manager is kind and got me back in for a filling in a timely fashion.

The best all around staff and dental i have ever been to. Thank you.

Friendly and competent team. They do a great job.

EVERYONE in this dental office is friendly, compassionate, gentle with patients. They make every effort to treat each person with respect, keep the office very clean and organized and are compliant with COVID restrictions. I would recommend Dr. Forde and all of his staff to anyone.

This dental practice uses all covid safety and sanitation practices. Bettye is the absolute best hygienist.

Very respectful to his clients.

My family has been going here for years. I HIGHLY recommend giving them a try. You wont regret it.

My new Dentist! Super friendly staff and comfortable environment!! Very happy with the work done!

Super helpful with scheduling appointments, reminders and even directions. Every interaction I encountered from front desk all the way through was so polite, professional and helpful. My hygienist made sure I was comfortable several times throughout cleaning & exam. Best experience I’ve ever had on a dentist office.

Ive finally found the right dental office for me! I absolutely love my hygienist, shes thorough, gentle, and considerate of my comfort. Everything is done following covid protocols as well.

Would recommend this Dentist and staff ...give them a 5 star rating for sure

From what I can tell so far, and I have a brief but extensive experience with Family & Cosmetic, Dr. Ford and his staff are the best dental practice I have ever encountered--and I have known many. Courteous, skilled and efficient just begins to describe these fine people. I will look no further.

We have been going here as a family for over 6 years at this point! I wouldnt and do not trust anyone else with mine or my families teeth PERIOD! Hands down best dentist office in New Mexico I would go as far as saying the country!. Superb knowledge on Dr. Fordes part and everyone in the office is kind beyond measure and honest. Also the Dental Hygienist are extremely incredible at what they do. Youll never go anywhere else once your here! You can trust the skill, quality and service any day of the week! Check them out and be astounded!

My experience was great, staff was very friendly and Im looking forward to my next checkup😄

This a very reliable company. I can always expect to be seen promptly according to schedule, with great customer service.

They are so nice and good communication.

Absolutely a great experience. Friendly Staff, Love their use of technology during Covid, great communication, and Everyone is super nice. Thanks for a great experience.

I’m newer to the Albuquerque area and went to Dr. Forde from a referral. I hands down would recommend this place to anyone. The entire team (front desk, assistants, etc.) were some of the friendliest people. I am NOT a fan of the dentist at all from past experiences and strangely enough, I look forward to my next cleaning visit in 6 months at this place. This speaks volume for me to even write a post. Keep up the good work, you def made me feel extremely comfortable in a place I have hated my enter life.

Dr. Forde has been my dentist for almost a decade. He’s a skilled dentist who cares about his patients.

Really amazing. They were great with my 3 kids and my kids were comfortable around them. Probably one of the most relaxed dentist visit Ive had with my kids in awhile. Thank you!

The doctors and staff are amazing! They have helped me & my entire family. They are all well informed and well equipped.They are also very professional and kind and caring.

Always Great Friendly smiles and Dental work is the best in Albuquerque NM,Dr Forde and staff are very professional and knowledgeable I recommend them 5stars plus tax

Very friendly staff. Made me feel very welcomed. 😊

This is truly a very good place to have your dental work done. This practice is very professional but more than that they are a caring group of people. One of the big concerns that I have is keeping my own teeth as over the years I have had quite a lot of dental work. It is simple, I get my teeth cleaned by a very experienced person and then Dr. Ford comes in with his good sense of humor and tells me if I need anything else done.

Always a great experience. Betty is a highly experienced hygienist and always does a great job. Dr Ford is also a highly skilled and friendly dentist.

Very friendly and professional environment. The staff is exceptional and pricing is more than fair. I needed a crown on my front tooth. I am more than satisfied! If you are needing a top dentist Dr. Forde is your guy.

Staff are very nice and respectful. They are also concerned about their patients. Understanding about what they were saying. Thank you

Great staff and work. Always nice coming into such a friendly environment.

Everyone is great and they make you feel completely at ease. Best experience ever!

I had my first visit the other day. It was very nice from the moment I walked in. The ladys there are very friendly and the atmosphere is comfortable. Im excited to be a new client! 😊🦋🌷

Always a great experience. Staff is very friendly and the work performed is always top notch.

My hygienist Betty is the best. I’m that wuss that usually cries going to the dentist, just for a cleaning. I have sensitive teeth, and I’m afraid of dental stuff. I was not scared at all now that I’ve been already. Everyone is sooooo caring and gentle and GOOD! really good. Dr. Forde is great too, and handsome 😉

I continue to be satisfied with the quality of care the staff and Dr. Forde provide; they have always promptly scheduled me and provided care in a pleasant and professional manner. It is worth noting that I originally met Dr. forde during a dental emergency in 2012 and was finally able to join his practice after a change in my dental insurance and have continued to b happy in his general practice but, rest assured that when u feel like your jaw wants to explode in the middle of the night they continue to shine through-I can only recommend the practice to anyone looking for outstanding care in Albuquerque RB

I just had a dental appointment for cleaning. No problems. Betty was who I saw along with Dr. Forde. Both are very professional but more importantly, they care. I was treated with the utmost care and attention. It has always been this way I have used family & Cosmetic dental for over 3 years. I will continue to use them they are great! I even recommend other family members to them. They are so great

Betty was patient and kind. She made me feel comfortable so that I was not afraid. Betty was thorough and helpful throughout the cleaning process. We are very happy with Betty!

I’ve been coming to this dentist since they opened. The great service and amazing relationships that I have with everyone there, keeps me coming back.

Betty & Mia always holding it down with a positive evirement, great job ladies!

The staff is always courteous & considerate of all their patients. They do not rush their patients & I always feel confident in their knowledge & work. And, know with covid-19, they take all the precautions & really put my mind at ease.I highly recommend Dr. Forde & his staff!

Everyone there are so nice and professional. I really don’t mind the “chore” of going to the dentist anymore.

Very nice place and professional

I have been seeing Betty for years for dental cleaning and it has a been a pain free, wonderful experience. I would recommend Dr Ford’s practice for anyone seeking quality, professional dental care. - Eric

Dr. Ford’s office has an amazing staff, they are very good and very sweet. I can’t praise Dr Ford enough, . he did amazing job on my implants and I am so happy I will continue to be his patient from here on. Thank you Dr. Forde!

Dr. Forde and hygienist Betty are extremely thorough & professional. They are currently practicing CDC guidelines while maintaining openness with communication.

Yesterday was a cleaning. It was quite thorough & my teeth feel great.Next, teeth whitening 😀. Then fix chipped front tooth 😕. Fortunately, I trust Dr. Forde & his staff 😃 !! Highly recommended.

Very comfortable been going there since I was little its a good environment nice people and they always take care of you.

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!

As my little G’son says, at wise old age 4, “l love going to the dentist, Gamma, It’s so exciting!!” Going to see Dr Forde really IS exciting! Got a new crown, it’s beautiful, feels great! No pain, no fuss, comfortable, affordable, and easy. So I agree w/my little guy. Dr Forde Really IS a new kind of dentist... thank God... NOT your G’ma’s old dentist!! How exciting is that!!

Very thorough and kind staff. Absolutely recommended.

Great friendly place to get a cleaning

Nice friendly environment as well as helpful staff.

Excellent, clean, and professional!

Paulina is an excellent hygienist, I highly recommend her!!!

Thank you Dr. Forde, I was in considerable pain from an unforeseen infection. He prescribed medication that had a marked effect in 24 hrs. Top notch care.

Wonderful Dental Practice! :-)

Great dentist and staff, good prices. They will do right by you.

Weve been visiting Dr Fordes office for a few years now. They are great! Patient, gentle and understanding. Much appreciated for kiddos with anxiety. We will continue as long as hes in practice.

Friendly Kool Atmosphere

Honestly Ive never felt more comfortable with any dentist and staff until I went with Dr. Forte . Professional welcomed informative friendly, Im glad I found this Dentistry group of happy people!! Id recommend them to all, I appreciate the help I received. Peggy

They are friendly and did a great job on cleaning my teeth

Very welcoming and professional absolutely great service

Very well run operation - extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and flexible in their scheduling policy

Friendly staff and comfortable environment.

Excellent in every way. Highly recommended!

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.

The best dentist, great and nice staff, and very welcoming!

Great service, friendly staff, professional and were able to get me in the same day when I broke a tooth. Thanks!

Staff were very friendly and courteous, and helpful.

Everyone at Dr. Fordes 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.

Had a good visit.

I went in for consultation for future implants. The entire staff were friendly and welcoming.
