Dr Bakus is amazing. I had 2 dental implants and he was meticulous. I’m so grateful to have a dentist who wants your mouth to be perfect. I would recommend him as the best in the south end of Louisville. We are lucky to have such a great dentist here in the South end!!

I’ve also had caps and fillings. I trust him totally!

Dr Bakus is great! The lady who worked with him today was phenomenal. I spent the entire after with them working on my mouth due to a last minute issue before my vacation Saturday and they worked diligently to get me vacation ready.

I have gone to Dr Mills since he got out of school and when he retired I never thought I would be satisfied with anyone else, but I couldn't be happier with the new crew and Dr Backus. Of course my girl Sheila is still there but everyone else is kind and caring. Dr Backus is very knowledgeable and listens when you ask him about your health and not patronizing. I'm glad he's young, I'll be coming to him for a long time!

The new Dentist is a an awesome addition to this practice. Dr. Mills will be greatly missed, but he has picked the right guys to fill his big shoes. Personal Note: Thanks for all the years of dental care and friendship Dr. Mills!! You wont go wrong with this practice... Friendly people, prompt service, and they make it comfortable, even though it is a DENTIST Office. lol :)

As positive an experience as one can ask for at the dentist! I have major dentist anxiety and sensory sensitivities, and I've been so impressed with Dr. Bakus' bedside manner and one assistant in particular (I don't know her name). I have always been scheduled quickly, seen promptly, treated with warmth and gentleness, and communicated with thoroughly. I've had several fillings done here and was even squeezed into the next morning's schedule when I had an issue with one, which was re-done on the spot. Would recommend this place to anyone who hates going to the dentist as much as I do (:

I highly recommend Pleasure Ridge Park Dentistry! The staff is super friendly and explains things in a way you understand. The Dentist was very understanding of my situation and legitimately cared about helping me with my dental problems, he explained things beautifully and took the time to listen without judgement. They also sent me this beautiful letter with a $5 Starbucks gift card, couldn't ask for a better group of people, thanks to all staff!
