Norman Goodwin DDS PS

Dr. Raigrodski has attention to detail, knowledge and care that can’t be beat! I had developed a huge fear of going to the dentist and was in need of a some major dental care when I landed in his office in 2009. After my first visit it was very apparent that he wanted to create a preventative dental plan and restore and preserve my smile. Today I am very grateful for the confidence I have in my smile after going through restorative work and will be a patient for life!

I moved to the PNW 18 months ago and hadn’t gotten around to getting a dental checkup since then. I decided to give Dr. Goodwin a try as he was rated extremely highly here on Unilocal and accepted my insurance (Delta Dental PPO). I was very impressed with my first visit; Dr. Goodwin and all his staff are all very through, but were also very friendly and constantly checking to ensure I was comfortable. I’m not sure I’ll ever look forward to going to the dentist, but when it’s necessary, I’ll definitely be back at Dr. Goodwin’s office.

Went to my first visit and it was AWESOME!!! They have a way of putting all those fears at ease. I was able to sit down, and go over questions that I had with them before sitting in the chair. I was then able to have the doctor go over a treatment plan and the cheapest way to go to achieve my dental goals. They are very welcoming, and personable. I would and have recommended them to my co workers and friends.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Goodwin ever since I was in pre-​school and now I’m a junior in college. I have always had such a positive experience at his office. Dr. Goodwin is not only a kind mans that truly cares about his patients, but everyone in his office is so great. The hygienists have always made me feel comfortable and work gently. I’ve grown up going to Dr. Goodwin’s and the day he retires will be a very say day because I truly don’t know if I can trust anyone as much as him. Dr. Goodwin is a phenomenal dentist with an amazing staff that I would recommend to anyone!

I’ve been going to Dr. Goodwin for literally decades. One of the most amazing things about his dental practice is that he always hires the very best staff. The technicians, hygienists, and front office staff are consistently excellent. I’m always in exceptionally capable hands at every visit ! Linda Frederick

I was referred to this dentist from a colleague who had raving reviews; much to my pleasure I discovered that Dr. Goodwin’s staff was particularly good. They welcomed me with warm and inviting front desk staff, took care of me while we reviewed my personal dental history and discussed with me my dental goals and concerns. During the appointment I was given several amenities to make sure my visit was comfortable: a warm blanket, coffee, Chapstick, warm neck roll, and even local anesthetic if I experienced anxiety. Moreover, they reviewed with me the overall status of my teeth compared to where I want to be and outlined a plan of action — I thought brushing and flossing was enough. Then they provided estimates and showed the insurance coverage for varying degrees of cosmetic dentistry options if I chose to move forward with them. I appreciated the extra time and attention they took in reviewing the x-​rays with me because I felt involved and in control of my oral health rather than feeling like I was at the mechanic. Overall I am very pleased with this dentist and am excited (who gets excited to vosit the dentist?!) to visit for my cleaning.

Phenomenal dentist office. Dr. Goodwin was my childhood dentist and I would even continue to receive regular cleanings when I came home on college breaks.
I didn’t realize how good I had it until I moved to Los Angeles after school and began the search for a new dentist. My current painful search has made me realize how skilled the hygienists are at the Goodwin office. Their cleanings are gentle and pain free, and they are friendly and make you feel very comfortable.
After some extremely harsh and painful cleanings, and quite enough water being sprayed on my face by the recent hygienists I’ve had, I just wish I could come back to this office for my dental care!

This is a great dentist office as a whole. They have a wonderful staff who have mostly all been there for some time and really get to know their clients. My dental hygenist is Vee. She makes me feel comfortable every time I arrive at the office and always has a warm smile. She asks for my preference before starting any routine work, which makes the experience more relaxing. Dr. Goodwin is also extremely kind and caring. Very great dentist.
This office also has its own brand of Chapstick and I’m not kidding — it is the BEST! Would highly recommend.

Dr Goodwin is our family dentist and has provided my family excellent dental health care for much of his long career. His supporting clinical and public contact staff are most pleasant and professional, making our routine visits very comfortable. The clinic office location is very convenient with easy parking.

As a very happy and more than satisfied patient of over 30 years, I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Goodwin and his amazing staff. Consistency, quality of work, personalized caring and excellent follow through, summarize why my family and I continue to go here. Despite a now relatively long distance from our home, we enjoy our regular visits, made less frequent by the quality of dental work that keeps our mouths healthy. Kudos to Dr. Goodwin, his awesome hygienists, assistants and office staff. Highly recommended!

I have been going to this dentist for the past 18 years. I have never had a bad experience! They treat me like I am part of the family and are always willing to work with me and my needs and don’t try to push unnecessary procedures just to make a quick buck. I love this dentist and the entire staff and would recommend it to any and everyone!

I have been seeing Dr. Goodwin for many years. Thankfully, I’ve never needed restorative work, but I’ve had a family member get it done and she was thrilled with the results. For me, they do a great job with my 6-​month checkups and cleanings. Fergie is an awesome hygienist! She is friendly, meticulous in her work and my teeth are sparkling when I leave! Appointments are usually right on time and have never been more than 5 minutes late — I appreciate that they respect my time.

After going to a «quick and easy» and open all the time type of dentist, I had it with them after they tried to give my husband a root canal without getting a 2^nd opinion. I needed a new dentist… I did some research and found Dr. Goodwin’s office. Very comfortable, clean and nice looking office located in a plaza near the alderwood mall. Atmosphere is very relaxing! Yes relaxing even if it’s a dentist’s office! They have cooled apple juice, water bottles, and a keurig coffee machine for patients as well. Front desk staff are very nice and friendly! Pam will always greet you by your first name when you first walk through the door. This sure makes a patient feel welcomed! The hygienist, dental assistant, Dr. Goodwin & Dr. Trenor are all super friendly and all can give you a laugh! Dr. Trenor sent me referrals to specialists to receive 2^nd opinions before proceeding with any treatment which is so nice. I had a root canal from the specialist and then came back to receive my crown buildup & porcelain crown. Everything was flawless! I highly recommend this place! You won’t regret it!

I have been a patient here for over twenty five years. Dr. Goodwin is simply the best! total professional in every way. I recommended him highly.

Can’t think of any other dentist in history I could try. If you have not been to a dentist on a long time; this is the person to see!

Dr. Goodwin is the best dentist! I switched to another dentist when I moved, but had to switch back because I didn’t get the same high quality service (even though it involved having to drive 30 minutes away).
Instead of scolding patients for not following an specific oral care routine (i.e. flossing), Dr. Goodwin and his staff comes up with alternatives that achieve the same results.
I’ve been going to Dr. Goodwin since 1996 and will be devastated when he retires down the road.

I have been going to Dr. Goodwin for 4 – 5 years and have always been impressed with his support staff and the quality of his services. Always very friendly. On time. Nice office.

This is the place you should be going if you are looking for great dentistry and world class customer service.
I can honestly say I have never felt more comfortable in a health professionals office — these folks really make an effort to individualize the experience and make you feel like you are in the best of hands — from the receptionist to the dental hygenists (thanks Fergie and Marlene!) to the denist (Norman, hope your knee is better soon!) it was a class act all round.
Its been almost 10 years since my last real visit to the dentist — mostly because I’d had some bad experiences, but now Im actually looking forward to visiting the office next week!
I’ve been busily referring my friends and co-​workers since the visit and highly recommend you consider this business if you are looking for dental care going forward.
