Patient Reviews

There has yet to be a time when I wasn’t entirely happy with the way I was treated from the greeting as I arrived to the quality of the treatments by Dr. Franco and the other staff. Dr. Franco is very thorough not only in the care of my teeth but also in the examination of my whole mouth, a thoroughness which discovered a lesion which could have become very dangerous. Dr. Franco is the best dentist I’ve ever had besides being very warm-hearted and generous.

Very good Costumer Service and Very pleasant Staff would not a hesitate to recommend this Office to anybody.

Always feel good about the quality of the work at Franco and Associates. Been going there for 10 years.

They use the latest cleaning techniques. The cleaning is gentle but thorough. Guidance is given so you can maintain your teeth as best possible. Very understanding when I had not filled in forms from home. I love this place and drive across town since I have moved from St Paul.

Dr. Milnar is very knowledgeable and clearly cares about and listens to his patients. He makes a point of checking on how his patients are doing during procedures – not just once, but periodically.

— Anne B.

Dr. Franco has been our dentist for many years. We appreciate the care she has taken of our teeth and her care for us individually. Boua is a fantastic hygienist, very gentle yet thorough.

— David B.

I’ve had medical trauma and dental trauma and I am immunocompromised. At every step of my appointment, from making my appointment to checking in to having my teeth cleaned to meeting with the dentist to scheduling – truly every aspect of the appointment – I felt cared about and for and respected. I felt physically safe, too. I’d give this dental clinic 10 stars if I could.

— Amy A.

I have been coming to Franco and Associates over 10 years and they are exceptional. They treat you like family.

I have been a patient of this practice for 50 years and have had several dentists and hygienists during this time and I have always been pleased with the professionalism, expertise and service! I highly recommend Franco and Associates.

— Helen W.

Words I never thought I would use to describe going to the dentist: gentle, efficient, and thoughtful! Jean is an EXCELLENT hygenist and is always so lovely when I see her. She’s very efficient but gentle when working on my teeth. She even had a blanket in case the room was cold! Front desk ladies are also so friendly. And of course – Dr. Franco is wonderful and always fills me in on what I need to know about my dental health.

— Emma S.

Franco & Associates is a secret of St Paul. It looks like a sweet, old fashioned dental office on the corner of Snelling & Laurel. In fact, it’s one of the most high tech advanced dentistry practices in the country. Dr Milnar is world renowned and delivers the highest caliber service with speed, precision and expertise. I will go no where else for my dental care.

— Miaja C.

The atmosphere is always friendly. Everyone I see, beginning with the warm reception the ladies in the front office give me when I enter the office, including Dr. Franco and her assistants, are genuinely welcoming and kind. I’ve recommended this dental group to several other people.

— Mary Jean L.

I had a new (to me) dental hygienist after many years with another one. She was fantastic! Thorough, knowledgeable, patient, and compassionate. My dentist is top flight! She listens and responds to any and all concerns. All the staff I came in contact with were professional and friendly. My insurance coverage was at their fingertips and I felt good about their support and guidance in making decisions.
