I’ve been a patient at MINT Dentistry Waxahachie since February 2026, and from Nettie and Brenda, to Dulce, Monique, Ally, Robin, and the rest of the staff (forgive me for not calling you all out by name), I’ve had experiences that have made me proud to be both a patient of this practice and a customer doing business with them.I’ve undergone several procedures myself, primarily working with Dr. Thao (forgive me if I’ve misspelled her name, lol), and recently began bringing my 86-year-old father here for his dental care. In fact, the way this team has cared for my father is what inspired me to write this review in real time.My father had never been to a dentist before coming to MINT, and throughout each of his visits, he’s been treated not only with respect but with a level of tenderness and patience that I believe is rare in healthcare, particularly in dental settings. I don’t have children, so I can’t say whether they approach him with the same gentleness they extend to younger patients (lol), but they manage to balance that tenderness with the dignity, directness, and respect he deserves as an adult.That alone has made me even more confident and comfortable with entrusting this practice with our care.I also want to emphasize that I pay for both my father’s dental services and my own entirely out of pocket. I’m not using insurance copays or FSA/HSA funds. These expenses come directly from my personal budget and represent my hard-earned money. I mention this because the quality, effectiveness, and consistency of the care we receive genuinely matter to me. When I’m making this level of financial investment, I want to know that the people providing our care are equally invested in our well-being.And Dr. Nguyen! What can I say about this man?I’ve had the pleasure of working with him directly for one of my own procedures, but he has primarily been my father’s dentist, and I cannot say enough good things about him. From the way he carries himself professionally to the way he interacts with his patients, his patience, attentiveness, and extraordinary attention to detail in communicating treatment and care have been remarkable.Watching how Dr. Nguyen treats my father is ultimately what moved me to write this review. His approach is consistently gentle, thoughtful, thorough, and respectful. He doesn’t simply perform a service; he demonstrates genuine care for the person receiving it. As someone responsible for helping my elderly father navigate his healthcare needs, that distinction means more to me than I can adequately express.I’ll also be transparent: I’ve had a few experiences that made me question whether I wanted to continue bringing my family to this office. However, the consistency and quality of care Dr. Nguyen has demonstrated have made the thought of leaving this practice much more difficult.That’s certainly not to suggest that the other doctors here aren’t skilled, compassionate, or deserving of recognition. I’ve had positive experiences with other providers as well. But Dr. Nguyen’s particular combination of professionalism, gentleness, thorough communication, and genuine consideration for my father has been unmatched in our experience. Granted, I might be a little biased since he’s the only dentist who’s treated my dad here, but I think I’ve earned that right! Lol.To the entire team (everyone named, and those unnamed), thank you for the work you do and for the care you’ve extended to my family. And to Dr. Nguyen specifically, thank you for treating my father with the dignity, patience, and compassion he deserves. It has not gone unnoticed, and it is deeply appreciated.
