We Are Dentists Who Care
Experience a Different Kind of Dentistry
I had a very difficult dental extraction this morning, and Dr. Lerzundy and Dawn were truly amazing. Dr. Lerzundy, was so gentle with the extraction that required some time to remove and Dawn made sure that I was comfortable - from getting me a blanket to being there for moral support. I have to admit that I have been going to this dental practice for a very long time and the staff never disappoints me and that is from the front desk to the exam rooms. I would recommend this team if you are looking for a dentist and dental hygienist who truly cares for their patients!!
I always hated going to the dentist, but when I go to Dr. Lerzundy's office, I can be assured that I will be taken care of (with as little pain as possible) by Dr. Lerzundy and her team of hygienists. They are all gentle and thorough and take the time to explain everything -- whether that's about oral health (the science) to the crown treatment process. My case involved getting a crown while doing orthodontics, and Dr. Lerzundy helped coordinate this with my orthodontist to ensure I get a smile I'm happy about. When I first moved to Durham, this was just a dentist office around my block, but I'm so glad I found them. I moved further away, but I still drive to see them because they're just that great!
Excellent Dr. Lerzundy.I took my almost 4 year old daughter and the Doctor was very detailed beyond what I expected. I really liked it. Excellent with children, she is very patient, careful and friendly, my daughter felt very calm throughout the examination and cleaning. dental. The dental assistant also very attentive and careful.
My family and I have been patients at this dental practice for nearly 20 years, initially under the care of Dr. Michael Flamming. The entire staff is always friendly and welcoming, the office is clean, and the front desk team is both efficient and pleasant.Dr. Lerzundy is a great dentist. She is gentle, highly knowledgeable, and takes the time to explain everything thoroughly. I never feel rushed throughout my appointments.The dental hygienists are also excellent. They are thorough yet gentle, and they always offer helpful tips to improve my oral hygiene routine.When I needed dental work done on short notice, they were very accommodating.I highly recommend Johanna Lerzundy, DDS, PA!
This office is a very special place the receptionist. The hygienist, and Doctor make you feel like family . May have waited 5 minutes,And they had me ready they are so organized it was a great visit. I loveEvery one of them.
Dr Lerzundy and her staff are great! The best! I like her conservative approach to dentistry. She advises honestly about what is necessary or not, and offers nontoxic fillers and bonding agents. The Dental Assistants always provide very helpful patient education in problem prevention and excellent cleaning.
If you need a great Dentist please don’t hesitate to call. Outstanding Dentist and staff.
Really worked with me on timing, insurance, future plans. Always a great job!!!
Exceptional service from the whole team. Glad to have you as my dentist since close to 20 years.
Went to the office in pain, turns out a root canal from a previous dentist had become infected! Johanna prescribed me antibiotics and referred me to an endodontist
I really appreciate the attention to detail and care, the wonderful “bed side manner”, and the excellent customer service.
Dr. Lerzundy and the whole team are incredible. Everybody is incredibly nice and down to earth. I personally value a holistic health approach to dentistry and Dr. Lerzundy’s team gave me every opportunity to advocate for myself and inform me of my options. It’s one of the most comfortable dentist offices I’ve ever experienced. I had 2 fillings and Dr. Lerzundy’s process was seamless and so smooth. I felt no pain and they were so caring and encouraging throughout the whole process. I used to hate the dentist but this office is really turning things around for me!!!
I always feel at home as soon as I walk in the door. Dr. Lerzundy and her team are the greatest and I enthusiastically and highly recommend. Dr. Lerzundy is very calming and compassionate in providing a plan for whatever issues may arise. If you are in need of great service, look no further.

Waited less than 5 minutes. Skilled, personable hygienist and doctor. I’ve been a patient here for many years, after bringing my mom and seeing the great care she received. I’d gladly recommend this practice to anyone!
My experience with Dr Lerzundy and her entire staff was exceptional. The caring and professionalism shown was outstanding. I very highly recommend this office.
Very nice staff and the dentist seems very knowledgeable. She explains what she is seeing while examining your teeth so you have a better understanding of how your teeth look. She also suggests areas that can be improved upon and where some plaque is being built up.
Excellent attention and professionalism. Delighted with all your staff. Thank you.
Excellent service. You feel always welcome in the office. Dr Lerzundy is a great and excellent professional. Great dentist and excellent customer service. Office staff is great too. I drive 1 hour one way jus to see her.
Dr. Lerzundy and her team are by far the best in the dental field! Thank you for your professionalism and personal experience.

I love this office. The staff all across-the-board are excellent, I have had nothing but great experiences here.
Very professional, trust worthy and very details oriented. The staff is awesome.
Professional, personal and always able to walk away with confidence when Dr. Lerzundy has done her work. Kudos to the staff as well for the “down home” feeling.
Amazing staff, professionalism, words can not explain what a wonderful experience, I have never felt so comfortable and at ease at dentist.....Kelly thank you so much you are a real doll....I'll be back Tuesday 😊
Yep, all the 5-star reviews are right!! You can tell this is an amazing team who enjoy what they do. They make the whole experience feel so easy and relaxed. And the view of nature and birds while in the dentist chair tops it off!
I felt so welcomed! I picked this place by chance and it was definitely the best choice for me!
They have a very caring staff and Dentist. I would not trust anyone else to do it but this holistic office.
Five-star experience starting the moment I reached out as a prospective new patient. Front desk staff is friendly and helpful, inquiries and messages are returned quickly, scheduling is convenient, minimal time spent in the waiting room, the hygienists are friendly and highly skilled, and Dr. Lerzundy herself is a gem — I’ve never had a dentist be so focused and attentive to my teeth and to the overall patient experience. I can’t say enough about this practice! So grateful to have found them!
Great staff, everyone is friendly and helpful. Our appointment was on time and throughout. They are great!
The staff is so friendly. Everyone was proud of their smile. This is the first time in my life I have had a zero-pain cleanse. I’ve had one tooth repaired and I recovered my smile again.
Always friendly and caring about their patients. Also everyone gives the best and efficient service.
Johanna is a knowledgeable dentist with an incredible human warmth. Her willingness to meet the needs of her patients quickly and efficiently goes far and beyond. My mother had an emergency with her teeth and Johana solved it overnight. The office environment felt very homey and welcoming. The lady at the front desk was very nice and diligent. I highly recommend Dr. Johanna Lerzundy and her clinic staff for all your dental needs.Thank you for your help! ❤️
Great dentist and staff. Would highly recommend to others looking for a quality dental practice.
Dr. Lerzundy and her staff provide a very positive experience and office atmosphere. She has such a gentle approach that I never even felt the needle when she gave me novocaine. I highly recommend her practice.
The expertise and genuine care I get from Dr. Lerzundy and her staff are always outstanding,The entire team makes you feel comfortable and explains what’s needed for your dental health. I’m grateful to be a part of their dental family. They will go above and beyond for you.
We love our current dentist office!! Hope we can always go here while we live in this area. We moved her from CA to this area and I was nervous about finding a new dentist we like because I have two little ones. My toddlers first appointment went so great and she now LOVES going to the dentist! It helped they made my kids feel so welcomed! The front desk is the sweetest and so helpful with making appointments that work with your family and your schedule as much as possible. The dentist and dental assistants are so kind too and they were very informative when I had questions about my teeth. Thanks for making our visits so great and easy!
This is by far the best dentist office I have ever been to. Not one time did it hurt when she put the needle in my mouth. Where has this practice been all my 49 years on this earth
I have been a patient here for years and appreciate the great care. Today Erin, the hygienist, was thorough and painless and informative and so friendly as usual. Dr Lerzundy was also friendly and thorough and professional.
I probably post a review less than once a year on average, but I'm so impressed by the talent of this staff, I've got to post an enthusiastic 5-star review. I've got a tricky spot on my back molars that's been worked on 1 or 2 times on each side over 30 years plus several procedures associated with getting braces as a teenager. Each previous time, (different dentists as I moved around the country) the staff really struggled through an uncomfortable process to get it right. Not here. It was the fastest, most comfortable that procedure has ever been.
From toddlers to teens, our two daughters, my wife and I have benefited from the truly excellent practice built by Drs Fleming and Lurzundy and their stellar team. Always there for us, last-minute, routine or with a challenge, we always feel appreciated and that we’re getting the best care we need.
I don’t like dentist appointments at all but you can’t help but love this whole entire office. They are always so friendly. I’m always seen on time. They are very conservative in their treatment approach & so gentle & quick in the chair. I drive over 30 min to see them & it’s worth it 100%.
It took me years to find this practice and I’m happily a 25+ year patient. They are caring, professional, and excellent people whose care I trust with my mouth wide open. They’ve served me well and I appreciate them all! If you’re looking for a practice to visit give them a try. You won’t be sorry.
Dr Lerzundy was great. She conducted the dental exam with very gentle technique, explained what I needed in a very supportive friendly way, and was cheerful, personable, and friendly throughout. For these reasons, I rate her very highly.
Well, after 22 crowns, over the years, entirely under Dr L’s caring expertise, I can only say thank you again and again for helping me through my health condition that deteriorates my teeth. The entire staff continues the tradition of excellence begun with Dr Fleming, 15 yrs ago. What is this “excellence”? I’ve never been fearful as my questions were welcomed, with the basics of every new procedure explained, and choices offered, when possible. Friends and family members now ask me which products/tools i use, as I have visibly received expert counseling!! Best of all, i now smile happily, no longer timid with my dental problems, as i have this Team. This new Captain is not quite as tall as Dr Fleming… but, don’t kid yourself, her precision and judgement are second to none.
The staff is always welcoming and willing to find solutions to hurdles, like scheduling or payments. Dr. Lerzundy is always very patient and willing to take the time needed to answer questions about the goals, benefits, and difficulties of the different procedures that she suggests as a temporary or a permanent solution to my needs. We are very pleased with the dental services we have received over the last 5 years.
Very nice staff. Scheduling was perfect. I walked in and was seen almost immediately. Staff seemed knowledgeable and professional. All answers I had were answered to my satisfaction. There was a problem with my insurance card and the staff handled all the phone calls to take care of the issue. I've scheduled future visits.
Had my first visit with Dr. Lerzundy and team today, and it was a very pleasant experience. Kelly welcomed into the practice with such a warm and friendly attitude. Dr. Lerzundy took the time to get to know me and my dental history, and Melissa provided a thorough, gentle cleaning.I am so pleased with the service I received as well as the welcoming, friendly atmosphere the practice provides. It was a great first experience and I look forward to my dental services with the practice!Thank you all for your attention, effort and friendly service!
From the moment I walked in the door and the receptionist, Kelly, introduced herself to me by name, I had a feeling my visit was going to be a positive experience. It is clear this is a clinic that wants to get to know their patients and provide a personalized experience. Every single person I interacted with was extremely kind, gentle, and professional. My hygienist was friendly and explained everything she was doing as we went through the visit. It had been a while since I had visited the dentist and there was zero judgement from anyone in the clinic. Also, at no point did I feel rushed, both the hygienist and Dr. Lerzundy really took their time with me. As a bonus, this clinic is holistic in their approach and seem to do only what is truly necessary instead of doing everything possible for their own financial gain, as so many other clinics do. I am so happy I found this clinic, I can’t see myself ever going anywhere else and I will recommend them to everyone I know!
