Great.... just a great dentist.
Dr. McElroy is one of the happiest Dentists I've been too. Each office visit as pleasant as can be expected. He's not the kind of dentist that leaves you sitting in the room waiting and waiting, he's usually right on time :) His office is not like most, each person is very nice, talkative and pleasant to work with.

Thanks Smiles by Design Team!
The care and service provided by the staff and Dr. Mc Elroy are second to none. From taking care of insurance claims to going beyond the call of duty on several occasions I have never received better care or advice. Some people hate going to the dentist office. I actually enjoy each visit and look forward to the next.

Best dental experience I've ever had.
OK, going to the dentist isn't one of my favorite things to do. Having said that, Smiles by Design in Encinitas has been the most comfortable and confidence inspiring dental experiences I've had yet. Dr. McElroy is a true professional of his trade and actually seems to like being a dentist. (Not sure how this is possible), but it comes through and makes the whole experience a lot more pleasant. His technology is also the most impressive I've seen. Digital x-rays zoom-in up close on your teeth right on the screen in each exam room. Awesome. On the negative side (sort of)... his level of service was not cheap. I gained a new appreciation for taking care of my teeth after getting the bill. But, I can't ever go back to a lesser level of dental care now. This is one case where I feel I definitely got what I paid for.
