I love my dentist. I have posted how amazing he is with crowns, cavities and now I get to brag about Vera. I got my teeth cleaned and she made me comfortable. Vera was compassionate, quick and efficient! I had all the work I needed done earlier this year after switching dentists and I am not sure why I was nervous about a cleaning but Vera made me not nervous at all. I am entirely happy with everything this office can provide. My own children are starting to come here too!
Barbara B.
I have been coming here for many years and been through many of your dentist and cleaning experts and it has always been a pleasure to come in. I do miss some of your former employees but appreciate your new ones too. I have not dreaded coming in for any appointments!! Thank you

The Dr is amazing. The dental hygienist is amazing. I will be recommending this place to everyone I know.

Great friendly place.

Dr Jacobsen is the best. He is amazing. I have had implants, caps, and some bonding. All of which looks and feels great. His staff is so nice and kind. 👍

This place is AWESOME! Dr Jacobson is great and more thorough than any other dentist I have ever been to. The staff is very kind and professional. The environment is clean and inviting. I love that they use natural ingredients for your better overall health. You are not cranked through like a number, they really seem to care about you!

I can’t thank Dr. Luke Jacobson and his team enough for the wonderful care I receive here! I’ve been to many dentists and have always had to be skeptical as someone that’s looking for a more holistic approach. I can finally say that I’ve found a dentist that’s exactly what I’ve been searching for! The doctor always answers my many questions. gives very thorough explanations, and focuses on your whole mouth/body to provide care that’s best for your overall health. I also always get the best treatment from any hygienist I’ve seen, they are all kind, listen to you, and make you feel comfortable. So grateful to have a such a wonderful natural dentistry and I would highly recommend them!
Donna E.
We had an emergency and Dr. Jacobsen worked us in and solved the issue. Great service!
Allison D.
Very happy and grateful to have found a natural dentist ✨💕

Dr Luke is great ! He really has a great insight to your personal needs and helps you move forward with perfect results, his assistant’s are also very knowledgeable and caring, I am loving my experience with the office!

Dr. Luke Jacobsen is simply the best in all the ways! I'm super happy with his communication, professional skills and knowledge as a much needed natural dentist who provided my family with healthier treatment plans! He's wonderful with kids, is funny and and overall loving and caring guy. The staff was great too. We are definitely dedicated to Dr. Luke!
Martha H.
I am so excited everytime I go to my new dentist. He removes amalgam safely is the best key. Dental dam, chorella, vitamin C and you too. I had a cracked crown replaced and it was all done at the same appointment appx 2 hrs. I used a massage chair while I waited too. My small cavity at my last appt was just numbed and lasered. So cool, and of course composite filled - no crooked smile because the numbing gel was good enough. Dr. Luke and his staff are all A+++++
Otis S.
Broke a tooth. 1st time customer and liked they were "natural". Glad I did, now a customer forever. Fixed me right up, made a plan for my future visits. Made me feel comfortable and assured. Nice feeling these days, especially going to the dentist.

I have finally found a dentist I can trust. Dr. Luke Jacobsen truly cares about his patients. He takes the time to answer questions and his staff is very kind. He is honest and doesn’t perform or suggest unnecessary procedures for self gain. I have to tell you about a wonderful procedure called NightLase that he performs on people with snoring problems. I have tried expensive custom made mouth guards that cost in the thousands that didn’t work, I have bought the tape to tape my mouth, have ordered plastic mouth guards that you mold yourself through Amazon that get full of bacteria and actually don’t really fit my small mouth. I did not want to wear a cpap so I did the best I could. Dr Luke told me about NightLase, a non-invasive laser therapy that can help with snoring and sleep apnea. It uses a laser to gently tighten the soft tissue of the upper airway, tongue, and soft palate, which can reduce snoring vibrations and the effects of sleep apnea. Three 45 minute procedures 21 days apart. I had my first procedure yesterday morning. Completely painless. A little awkward as they move your tongue out of the way but no pain. My husband said I didn’t snore all night!!! I’m so excited and thankful for this. Thank you Dr. Luke.
Cory B.
I owe my dignity to Dr. Jacobsen. He saved my biscuits yesterday. I chipped my front tooth Monday night and I was horrified. By the afternoon of Tuesday (THE NEXT DAY) he fixed my tooth!! I didn't have to go around looking like a hee haw for more than 12 hours!! I am eternally grateful. <3
dayna Y.
I recommend this place. They have done better by my family then any other dental place has.
Paige J.
I recently started seeing Dr. Jacobsen at West Valley Natural Dentistry and he and his team have made every experience as enjoyable as going to the dentist can be. They do amazing work and really take time to get to know me and what I want and need. I definitely recommend!
Larry K.
Had one procedure scheduled asked about a 2nd. Dentist Luke Jacobsen took care of both easily. Jennifer, his new assistant was great. Tanya at the front desk is always fun. Vera cleaned my teeth a week ago. If you need a good dentist office, this is a good one.
Terri W.
I love that these guys are holistic-minded snd don’t use toxic products.

West Valley Natural Dentistry Staff are amazing! We love Dr. Luke Jacobsen - he is kind, caring, and always does an excellent job! Try them out - you won't be disappointed.
Ulrich K.
Dr. Jacobsen is a really fine dentist and finally one that I can trust. I know that my teeth are in "good hands" with his care. He is very diligent and his work is of the highest quality. Dr. Jacobsen's team is also very nice and easy to work with, and the office environment is welcoming and relaxed. I highly recommend Dr. Jacobsen.
Jennifer L.
I'd give Dr. Jacobsen and his staff ten stars if I could. Vera, the dental hygienist, is fantastic. Clearly knows exactly what she's doing, explained everything to me, and she's a very kind, friendly, pleasant person to boot. Dr. Jacobsen instilled confidence in me within the first minute of my meeting him. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and articulately, giving me a well-rounded understanding. He had multiple opportunities to up-sell me. Instead, he explained to me why going the more invasive and expensive route would not be the best choice for my circumstance. I so appreciate that kind of ethical conduct. Tanya at the front desk was also a joy to work with. From start to finish, my experience at WVND was very positive. I'm happy and grateful to be a patient of Dr. Jacobsen.
Holley T.
I love this office. I feel at home with the staff and don't dread going to the dentist anymore. Today, for the first time in my life, I had a tiny cavity fixed. No anesthetic and NO pain! Dr. Jacobsen was lightening fast and took care of me. Thank you guys for being here in the Treasure Valley so my daughter and I can have superlative dental care with natural dentistry. ❤️
Amber M.
Dr. Jacobsen was thorough and safe in removing my amalgam fillings. He took every precaution necessary. He was kind, confident and trustworthy in his work, while also helping me to fully understand the situation. The assistants, on both of my visits, were helpful and reassuring, explaining everything I needed to be aware of during the procedures. Thank you so much for your care and concern to help restore my teeth back to health!
susan k.
A wonderful experience, from Vera the hygienist to Dr. Luke Jacobsen. We've been patients of this office for many years, and the current services are excellent!
Caroline D.
Good results!
Ron R.
I was glad to have my amalgam fillings removed. The Doctor made it a painless experience. Thank you.
Susan C.
Great dentist. Love the caah discount. He found and solved the problem previous dentists and doctors said didn't exist. Thank you for giving me my health back!
Peter C.

I recently had 3 old amalgam fillings replaced. They were recommended by my naturopathic doctor as a safer alternative to traditional dentistry. The staff and Dr. Jacobsen were professional and engaging. Felt comfortable throughout the entire procedure, with minimal pain and discomfort.
Phil S.
We’ve looked for a long time for a great Natural Dentistry practice and are so glad to have Dr. Jacobsen and his superb staff caring for us. Doing the work now of getting things right to live a long and healthy life. Plus the country music is really relaxing! Thank you especially Maria and Tanya!
Ashley S.
Dr Jacobson & staff have been wonderful to work with over the past few years. I’ve had a few different hygienists and get great cleanings.
Lisel C.
One of the few dentists in the valley that doesn’t use fluoride and will remove permanent retainers. Nice staff too. Long wait to get in but worth it.
Mark C.
I couldn't be happier with Dr. Jacobsen. I've been going to him for several years now. He's awesome :)
Andra W.
I appreciate the fact that I was not gaslighted when I mentioned that I would rather have dentures than a mouth full of root canals. Dr Jacobsen, thank you for offering proceedures that do not poison the body. I highly recommend this oasis in the midst of a toxic medical industry!
Candis J.
My whole family and even a few of my coworkers use West Valley. Everyone is always friendly and makes you feel cared about.
Ulrich K.
After I was told by another dentist that I would need 6 crowns, it was a great relieve that Dr. Jacobsen suggested a much more holistic approach. The bite needs to be corrected and then the teeth can be repaired and I don't need any crown. Dr. Jacobsen and his staff were really understanding and helpful. I look forward to my treatment. Thank you Dr. Jacobsen.
Julie B.
Dr Jorgenson and the rest of the staff are wonderful and do a great job. I feel like I am in good hands and love that it is natural dentistry.
Jaryn I.
Vera is the best
Darcy
Great staff, easy to work with and very professional.
Melody W.
Wonderful experience my poor little girl had 9 cavities! Dr Jacobson was able to get her in and out without too much time and we have a plan to strengthen her teeth. I'm so glad he does offer fluoride and that he is open to all my holistic ideas. Love the laser driller and Ozone which is why we chose him
Jenny W.
Ken C.
I called the office about the procedure they provided. Tonia explained in excellent detail what they do and what my cost would be. I am looking forward to my future work.
Tracy L.
After going to several dentists in the Treasure Valley looking for someone to fix my husband's teeth, without dentures, we found Natural Dentistry. This office is amazing starting with Tonia at the front desk. She's always so helpful with a positive attitude. Everyone makes you feel so comfortable. We love Bev and Vera too. Thanks to Dr. Jacobsen, my husband has a wonderful new smile. I highly recommend this dentist office.
The M.
Very pleasant, patient centered care.
Fernando L.
This place is soo awesome!!..i love that they dont use any metal and they dnt believe in fluorideand super CLEAN!!..Bev and Dr Jacobsen were absolutely amazing people!!..i cant wait to come back and i would definitely refer people here!!
Rosemarie
Dr. Jacobsen has been my dentist for several years now. I initially found West Valley on the Internet when looking for a more natural dental experience. I interviewed Dr. Jacobsen at my initial consultation and found him to be highly knowledgeable about natural dentistry, and with a caring and personable attitude. He is an "artist" truly in how he approaches fillings and crowns. I trust his skill absolutely. My search for the best dentist is over, because I have found in Dr. Jacobsen the excellent type of dentist I can stay with indefinitely.
Barbara C.
Always friendly and professional. I appreciate their knowledge and quality of care.
Carol K.
What an accommodating office...the whole staff! And Dr. Luke Jacobsen...this dentist hums while he's working on your mouth. After taking a photo, he agreed that he could fill a tooth without numbing. No pain and quickly finished!
Debra
This is the very best dentist I have ever been to. I am extremely fearful and this Dr. Jacobsen has really changed my fear factor to addressing issues with my teeth.The entire staff is so kind and patient! Not to mention the outstanding work that has been done to my teeth!! I would recommend this dental office to adults and children!!! Excellence is hard to find especially for dental care that is up to date and safe! I could not be more pleased !!!!
Bethany W.
I love this place and recommend them to people all the time. I love that they have a more natural approach to oral care and understand the dangers to common dentistry practices that jeopardize people’s health. I trust them.
Christine
I am SOOOO excited to have found this dentistry! Their methods and professionalism are just was I was looking for. The staff is super friendly, and the dentist is very genuine, super knowledgable, and seems to “do to others what he would want done for himself”, which is refreshing to find! I also love their more natural approach… I just had a cracked tooth filled by them, and I couldn’t be more pleased. The ozone laser therapy was minimally invasive and way more disinfecting! I didn’t even need an anesthetic. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Colleen C.

Vera is amazing. 💚💚💚💚💚💚
Seton M.
Had my cleaning with Vera and she is really thorough and detailed. Dr. Luke Jacobsen did spectacular work by fixing a discolored, protruding implant done by another dentist. I am very pleased with everyone that works at West Valley Natural Dentistry and it’s important to me that they are fluoride free and practice natural dentistry.
Tony T.
Had a visit with the hygienist and inspection by my dentist Dr Luke Jacobsen. The hygienist did a great job totally painless, and visiting with Dr Jacobsen is always a pleasure. Highly recommended this office to all my family and friends.

My husband and I were referred to WVND and were very pleased by the service provided, friendly staff, and advanced tech that was utilized. So far the results have been great, and we are looking forward to continued care with Dr. Jacobsen and crew.
T H.
I had an awesome encounter with Dr Jacobsen and was very pleasantly surprised with his willingness to thoroughly investigate a complex situation and resolve my reoccurring my tooth and jaw pain. Office staff was also very friendly and worked effectively together. Thanks so much!!!
Bonny
The staff is so caring, and Dr. Jacobsen is wonderful. My heartfelt thanks to the staff, who assisted me with a very difficult situation! You girls ROCK!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!

Gratefully to have found West Valley Natural Dentistry. Just what I was looking for, couldn’t be happier with my overall experience.
Michael S.
It’s always a good visit. I appreciate the expertise of the staff and how friendly everyone is as well.
Kim
This is a dental office that supports my alternative natural life style with my health. And doesn’t do anything extra that you might not need. 😊
Jo S.
Coming from a dental background, I was very anxious about finding the right dentist in Idaho. I was on the fence about traveling back to Seattle for my dental care. I am beyond impressed with Dr. Jacobson and staff. He is passionate in regards to using the best solutions for my complex dental needs and conservative and practical in prescribing the treatment plan that best fits my needs as well as my budget.
Brenda A.
Dr. Peterson is great. He put my trust back in dentistry.

Jeff M.
Excellent experience. Vera was very skillful and informative.
Caroline
Good through cleaning, thanks so much.
Susan K.
We LOVE Dr. Luke Jacobsen! However both of our visits yesterday with the hygienist were less than satisfactory. Asking us about our medication history and medical diagnoses for a simple cleaning was intrusive. And not using the saliva "sucker"enough caused a lot of uncomfortable drooling and choking. She did a good job on the cleaning otherwise.
Benjamin H.
Dr. Jacobsen took time out of his holiday weekend to fix a tooth that was killing me! Even in this time where businesses are short staffed he took the time to come in on a Saturday. He didn’t have to do that and could’ve told me I had to wait till Monday. I was very pleased with how he went about taking out my tooth! Thank you again!!
Linda W.
Excellent care and attention to detail! Very happy with this office and it was my first visit. Both the hygentist and dentist were the best. I highly recommend!
J
The team here has stuck it out with my angry tooth. After so many failed attempts with other dentists I finally have someone in my corner. They have been patient, understanding, and always have done their best. Will be a client for life!
Jason R.
Finally a dentist who supports better, alternative options, and supports my decisions with me and my families decisions with our dental health. The entire staff is amazing... Feels more like friends than the "scary dentist".
Helen R.
Highly recommend this dental office. Both professionally and for the quality of the support staff, who have been very responsive when emergency care was needed. The dentists are exceptionally qualified both technically and socially. Ss ional techns

Staff is very friendly & knowledgeable!One feels comfortable & confident that the work done is done with the patient's wellbeing as first priority.
EVERYDAY M.
Some older postings are quite biased with entitled people, but the energy here is great! They give an incredible service that's more involved than regular dentists. Basically everyone I know doesn't like going to dentist appointments but this new group does so good and shows that they care from the moment you walk in. They're helpful in understanding any issue and explain the solutions. They're on point as much as possible and work hard to help with insurance billing.
Arden
Fantastic crew and top notch service. Highly recommend for biological dentistry.

Wonderful dental office. The staff is super friendly, the hygienist is thorough and dentist is knowledgeable and funny! Our friend referred my family there a year ago and we have been totally satisfied. Love this place!
Alice
If you are looking for a wonderful, clean and caring dental practice, West Valley Natural Dentistry is it! They have an amazing hygienist, Erlinda who is so kind, informative and has taught me so much about proper gum care. I genuinely feel cared about through their practice and highly recommend them.
Lucas S.
Amazing work, always consistent, I love my Hygienist Erlinda, she is without a doubt why I come back. There are a lot of places to go but when I go here, sometimes I think Erlinda loves and cares for my teeth more than I do! Amazing team and I never not look forward to dropping in for my cleanings. My friends think I’m crazy for loving the dentist, but the people here make the difference, especially when you know they are invested in YOUR health. I recommend all my friends to ask for Erlinda!
Hope B.
The BEST, most knowledgeable, & informative dentistry I’ve ever gone to. I am so happy that I made the switch from my old dentistry to this amazing atmosphere of a place. Erlinda was assigned to me as the dental assistant & I couldn’t be more grateful that she was. She was so kind & really gave me the best advice to correct my small cavities, as well as to whiten my smile, the most non-painful way & cost-efficient. It’s also really amazing how the doctor asks you your teeth & smile goals, leads you to the next step in getting what you want. NOT TO MENTION - it’s natural!!! The products they recommend etc., is just amazing & exactly what we need more of these days with all the toxic ingredients lurking in our skincare products like toothpaste or mouthwash. I will recommend this dentistry to ANYONE & EVERYONE I ever meet! When my son gets teeth this is where I will be taking him too!!!
Jeremy C.
First time here and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Erlinda did a great job cleaning my teeth & explaining best practice for preventative care. Thank you!
Avery R.
Erlinda at West Valley Natural Dentistry is amazing — kind, quick, and thorough. She is very thoughtful and makes the overall experience painless. Would highly recommend Dr. Davis and his team.
Emily N.
I have receding gums and have dealt with gingivitis for years but ever since going to West Valley I have received the best advice for how to improve my oral health. Erlinda (hygienist) has educated me on how to take care of my teeth and gums like no other dental hygienist has. I finally have nice pink gums instead of sore red gums like in the past! Dr. Jacobsen and Dr. Davis are up-to-date on the latest technology and innovations in this field , while also very attentive to my wimpy self when it comes to dental procedures.

Excellent dentist. Re-explained many dental mysteries to me in a way that made sense. His sense of humor put me at ease and gave him energy for solving problems in new ways, and created a nurturing environment for support staff. Everyone was kind and fun and flexible. Pricing was fantastic.
Shane B.
Erlinda is the absolute best. I don’t love going to the dentist but when you find someone who treats you with respect, and cares 110% about what she is doing it makes it much easier. Dr. Jacobsen does a great job explaining policies and procedures as well.
Gertie K.
They asked me if the dentist did any impressions. I said, “No. But he told a lot of jokes.” Excellent dentist. Re-explained many dental mysteries to me in a way that made sense. His sense of humor put me at ease and gave him energy for solving problems in new ways, and created a nurturing environment for support staff. Everyone was kind and fun and flexible. Pricing was fantastic.
Barbara P.
Erlinda and Dr. Jacobsen provide comprehensive, transparent, and compationate care. Erlinda takes time to explain the "why" behind my periodantal problems using diagrams and all! She is very patient with all my questions, listens, and provides clear, concise descriptions. Dr. Jacobsen also is transparent, calm, and I never feel rushed by him. He listens well, makes sure all of my questions are answered, and shows me everything! I couldn't ask for better care. I am so pleased to have found them!
jacqueline c.
I couldn't be happier with Dr. Jacobsen and Roxie today. Seriously so informative, gentle, thorough and helpful. I was told i needed a crown by another dentist and today they said he couldn't in his right mind do a crown and it wasn't necessary. I have another appointment for a cleaning and a couple fillings next week and honestly all of my anxiety is gone ... im actually excited to go back. Super funny, calming staff helps make everything enjoyable!
Abbey L.
What a pleasant experience! We loved West Valley Natural Dentistry. Erlinda is already having a profound affect on our family since we left we’ve mentioned things she taught us often. A true gem of dental hygienist who has so much passion for the health of her patients. A fluoride free office and not one where they shove a screen in front of the kids for their visit but instead talk to them as intelligent people as they clean their teeth. I respected the opinions of Dr Jacobsen right away as it was clear he believed in the teeth’s ability to heal.
Rebecca C.
I'm a new patient to West Valley Natural Dentistry, and I must say I am very impressed. My RDH, Erlinda, was so informative and really helped educate me on the current state of my dentition and what I should do to promote healthy teeth in the long run. I was seriously impressed with how much knowledge Erlinda had, but even more impressed that she took the time to educate me-which truly in priceless. Dr Jacobson was also really great and I feel like they really want to help people. I look forward to staying a devoted patient.
Ryan M.
My husband Ryan and I recently found this place and we love it, very professional and they even have a massage chair in the office. The staff and Dr were great, they were reasonable with prices and fair. Our hygienist Erlinda has so much personality and is very informative, caring and helpful. Erlinda tops the overall experience for me. Never have I ever had a hygienist that was so expressive and helpful, making sure I get the best care and walk away with information to better take care of myself. We are looking forward to returning and the overall experience I would highly reccomend this place.
Alyssa Q.
Very thorough and kind people. They work efficiently. Difficult to find another dentist that works [mostly] naturally in the Treasure Valley area! Bonus! They have the best massage chair in the waiting room that would lure you back anytime.

This is a review from a Patient of ours that wanted to leave a review but does not have access to do so. Here is the copy of what she said. Thank you so much Kathy for your kind words! I would like to give a great big THANK YOU to Rich Davis of West Valley Natural Dentistry. I had to have a major dental procedure an was very nervous about it. It was amazing how smoothly everything went- not a lot of pain, no swelling or bruising and he made me feel very much at ease and answered all my questions. THANK YOU!!!!!
Aubrey B.
I've been there several times and everytime I go, I am greeted by a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. I was particularly nervous going in for a root canal, having been warned by everyone I told that I wouldn't be able to eat regular food and that I would be in a lot of pain. However, after the procedure had finished, there was some initial tenderness, but by the next day, the pain was hardly noticeable! Dr. Davis and his staff always do an amazing job!
Cody B.
These guys are amazing! I brought in my whole family including a 2 year old who is usually terrified of dentists and doctors and they did a fantastic job. Great atmosphere, great service, great people. We would definitely recommend Dr. Davis and his staff.
Tina
Very knowledgeable, professional, friendly, caring office. Dr. Davis and staff work very well together. Dr Davis and Amber were very gentle and patient. In removing my Mercury fillings, I felt safe and protected. During this procedure they seemed to use extreme caution as they isolated the tooth, gave me protective eyewear etc. Staff wore a protective "gas mask" with a face shield. In needing a crown, I love that I can get everything done in one day. My crown fits beautifully, BTW🤗.. Thx everyone!
Chelsi D.
We have been going to this office for years. They are wonderful! Everyone is friendly, professional, and caring. I would highly recommend them.

Erlinda my dental hygienist has been cleaning my teeth for many years now, I came in to have my teeth cleaned after not being to the dentist for many years, I learned I had Periodontal disease, it’s been a long process of attempting to get my teeth back in health, Erlinda has done a fantastic job, I see her every three months, she takes the time as if working on her own mouth, if I could give her and everyone else there 10 stars I would, I have had everything from inplants to extractions and bridges, fillings and bone graphs, Dr Phost, Dr Davis and Amber have always done a great job, making sure I’m comfortable and not in pain and taking the time to explain the process, thank you Westvalley dental and all your staff for keeping me smiling.

This Doc and his staff are compassionate/caring. Had my mercury fillings SAFELY removed. Doc Pfost and his assistant went WAY Above the call of duty on this one..... Bless 'em all. Highly reccommened....A+++++++++ -Joel 9/15/2016
Suzanne L.
My entire family have had all our dental work done by Dr.Pfost for 28 years. Dr. Pfost is the most compassionate and gentle dentist that we have ever used. I would send a friend to see him anytime. He does beautiful work on crowns too.
Sharon K.
I have worked for Dr. Pfost for over 30 years. During this time I have observed his compassion and caring for his patients. He is considered "holistic" as he is concerned about how his procedures and the materials he uses affect a patient's overall health. I not only work for him, but he is my dentist and I highly recommend him.
I love my dentist. I have posted how amazing he is with crowns, cavities and now I get to brag about Vera. I got my teeth cleaned and she made me comfortable. Vera was compassionate, quick and efficient! I had all the work I needed done earlier this year after switching dentists and I am not sure why I was nervous about a cleaning but Vera made me not nervous at all. I am entirely happy with everything this office can provide. My own children are starting to come here too!
I have been coming here for many years and been through many of your dentist and cleaning experts and it has always been a pleasure to come in. I do miss some of your former employees but appreciate your new ones too. I have not dreaded coming in for any appointments!! Thank you
Dr Jacobsen is the best. He is amazing. I have had implants, caps, and some bonding. All of which looks and feels great. His staff is so nice and kind. 👍
This place is AWESOME! Dr Jacobson is great and more thorough than any other dentist I have ever been to. The staff is very kind and professional. The environment is clean and inviting. I love that they use natural ingredients for your better overall health. You are not cranked through like a number, they really seem to care about you!
I can’t thank Dr. Luke Jacobson and his team enough for the wonderful care I receive here! I’ve been to many dentists and have always had to be skeptical as someone that’s looking for a more holistic approach. I can finally say that I’ve found a dentist that’s exactly what I’ve been searching for! The doctor always answers my many questions. gives very thorough explanations, and focuses on your whole mouth/body to provide care that’s best for your overall health. I also always get the best treatment from any hygienist I’ve seen, they are all kind, listen to you, and make you feel comfortable. So grateful to have a such a wonderful natural dentistry and I would highly recommend them!
Dr Luke is great ! He really has a great insight to your personal needs and helps you move forward with perfect results, his assistant’s are also very knowledgeable and caring, I am loving my experience with the office!
Dr. Luke Jacobsen is simply the best in all the ways! I'm super happy with his communication, professional skills and knowledge as a much needed natural dentist who provided my family with healthier treatment plans! He's wonderful with kids, is funny and and overall loving and caring guy. The staff was great too. We are definitely dedicated to Dr. Luke!
I am so excited everytime I go to my new dentist. He removes amalgam safely is the best key. Dental dam, chorella, vitamin C and you too. I had a cracked crown replaced and it was all done at the same appointment appx 2 hrs. I used a massage chair while I waited too. My small cavity at my last appt was just numbed and lasered. So cool, and of course composite filled - no crooked smile because the numbing gel was good enough. Dr. Luke and his staff are all A+++++
Broke a tooth. 1st time customer and liked they were "natural". Glad I did, now a customer forever. Fixed me right up, made a plan for my future visits. Made me feel comfortable and assured. Nice feeling these days, especially going to the dentist.
I have finally found a dentist I can trust. Dr. Luke Jacobsen truly cares about his patients. He takes the time to answer questions and his staff is very kind. He is honest and doesn’t perform or suggest unnecessary procedures for self gain. I have to tell you about a wonderful procedure called NightLase that he performs on people with snoring problems. I have tried expensive custom made mouth guards that cost in the thousands that didn’t work, I have bought the tape to tape my mouth, have ordered plastic mouth guards that you mold yourself through Amazon that get full of bacteria and actually don’t really fit my small mouth. I did not want to wear a cpap so I did the best I could. Dr Luke told me about NightLase, a non-invasive laser therapy that can help with snoring and sleep apnea. It uses a laser to gently tighten the soft tissue of the upper airway, tongue, and soft palate, which can reduce snoring vibrations and the effects of sleep apnea. Three 45 minute procedures 21 days apart. I had my first procedure yesterday morning. Completely painless. A little awkward as they move your tongue out of the way but no pain. My husband said I didn’t snore all night!!! I’m so excited and thankful for this. Thank you Dr. Luke.
I owe my dignity to Dr. Jacobsen. He saved my biscuits yesterday. I chipped my front tooth Monday night and I was horrified. By the afternoon of Tuesday (THE NEXT DAY) he fixed my tooth!! I didn't have to go around looking like a hee haw for more than 12 hours!! I am eternally grateful. <3
I recently started seeing Dr. Jacobsen at West Valley Natural Dentistry and he and his team have made every experience as enjoyable as going to the dentist can be. They do amazing work and really take time to get to know me and what I want and need. I definitely recommend!
Had one procedure scheduled asked about a 2nd. Dentist Luke Jacobsen took care of both easily. Jennifer, his new assistant was great. Tanya at the front desk is always fun. Vera cleaned my teeth a week ago. If you need a good dentist office, this is a good one.
West Valley Natural Dentistry Staff are amazing! We love Dr. Luke Jacobsen - he is kind, caring, and always does an excellent job! Try them out - you won't be disappointed.
Dr. Jacobsen is a really fine dentist and finally one that I can trust. I know that my teeth are in "good hands" with his care. He is very diligent and his work is of the highest quality. Dr. Jacobsen's team is also very nice and easy to work with, and the office environment is welcoming and relaxed. I highly recommend Dr. Jacobsen.
I'd give Dr. Jacobsen and his staff ten stars if I could. Vera, the dental hygienist, is fantastic. Clearly knows exactly what she's doing, explained everything to me, and she's a very kind, friendly, pleasant person to boot. Dr. Jacobsen instilled confidence in me within the first minute of my meeting him. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and articulately, giving me a well-rounded understanding. He had multiple opportunities to up-sell me. Instead, he explained to me why going the more invasive and expensive route would not be the best choice for my circumstance. I so appreciate that kind of ethical conduct. Tanya at the front desk was also a joy to work with. From start to finish, my experience at WVND was very positive. I'm happy and grateful to be a patient of Dr. Jacobsen.
I love this office. I feel at home with the staff and don't dread going to the dentist anymore. Today, for the first time in my life, I had a tiny cavity fixed. No anesthetic and NO pain! Dr. Jacobsen was lightening fast and took care of me. Thank you guys for being here in the Treasure Valley so my daughter and I can have superlative dental care with natural dentistry. ❤️
Dr. Jacobsen was thorough and safe in removing my amalgam fillings. He took every precaution necessary. He was kind, confident and trustworthy in his work, while also helping me to fully understand the situation. The assistants, on both of my visits, were helpful and reassuring, explaining everything I needed to be aware of during the procedures. Thank you so much for your care and concern to help restore my teeth back to health!
A wonderful experience, from Vera the hygienist to Dr. Luke Jacobsen. We've been patients of this office for many years, and the current services are excellent!
Great dentist. Love the caah discount. He found and solved the problem previous dentists and doctors said didn't exist. Thank you for giving me my health back!
I recently had 3 old amalgam fillings replaced. They were recommended by my naturopathic doctor as a safer alternative to traditional dentistry. The staff and Dr. Jacobsen were professional and engaging. Felt comfortable throughout the entire procedure, with minimal pain and discomfort.
We’ve looked for a long time for a great Natural Dentistry practice and are so glad to have Dr. Jacobsen and his superb staff caring for us. Doing the work now of getting things right to live a long and healthy life. Plus the country music is really relaxing! Thank you especially Maria and Tanya!
I appreciate the fact that I was not gaslighted when I mentioned that I would rather have dentures than a mouth full of root canals. Dr Jacobsen, thank you for offering proceedures that do not poison the body. I highly recommend this oasis in the midst of a toxic medical industry!
After I was told by another dentist that I would need 6 crowns, it was a great relieve that Dr. Jacobsen suggested a much more holistic approach. The bite needs to be corrected and then the teeth can be repaired and I don't need any crown. Dr. Jacobsen and his staff were really understanding and helpful. I look forward to my treatment. Thank you Dr. Jacobsen.
Wonderful experience my poor little girl had 9 cavities! Dr Jacobson was able to get her in and out without too much time and we have a plan to strengthen her teeth. I'm so glad he does offer fluoride and that he is open to all my holistic ideas. Love the laser driller and Ozone which is why we chose him
I called the office about the procedure they provided. Tonia explained in excellent detail what they do and what my cost would be. I am looking forward to my future work.
After going to several dentists in the Treasure Valley looking for someone to fix my husband's teeth, without dentures, we found Natural Dentistry. This office is amazing starting with Tonia at the front desk. She's always so helpful with a positive attitude. Everyone makes you feel so comfortable. We love Bev and Vera too. Thanks to Dr. Jacobsen, my husband has a wonderful new smile. I highly recommend this dentist office.
This place is soo awesome!!..i love that they dont use any metal and they dnt believe in fluorideand super CLEAN!!..Bev and Dr Jacobsen were absolutely amazing people!!..i cant wait to come back and i would definitely refer people here!!
Dr. Jacobsen has been my dentist for several years now. I initially found West Valley on the Internet when looking for a more natural dental experience. I interviewed Dr. Jacobsen at my initial consultation and found him to be highly knowledgeable about natural dentistry, and with a caring and personable attitude. He is an "artist" truly in how he approaches fillings and crowns. I trust his skill absolutely. My search for the best dentist is over, because I have found in Dr. Jacobsen the excellent type of dentist I can stay with indefinitely.
What an accommodating office...the whole staff! And Dr. Luke Jacobsen...this dentist hums while he's working on your mouth. After taking a photo, he agreed that he could fill a tooth without numbing. No pain and quickly finished!
This is the very best dentist I have ever been to. I am extremely fearful and this Dr. Jacobsen has really changed my fear factor to addressing issues with my teeth.The entire staff is so kind and patient! Not to mention the outstanding work that has been done to my teeth!! I would recommend this dental office to adults and children!!! Excellence is hard to find especially for dental care that is up to date and safe! I could not be more pleased !!!!
I love this place and recommend them to people all the time. I love that they have a more natural approach to oral care and understand the dangers to common dentistry practices that jeopardize people’s health. I trust them.
I am SOOOO excited to have found this dentistry! Their methods and professionalism are just was I was looking for. The staff is super friendly, and the dentist is very genuine, super knowledgable, and seems to “do to others what he would want done for himself”, which is refreshing to find! I also love their more natural approach… I just had a cracked tooth filled by them, and I couldn’t be more pleased. The ozone laser therapy was minimally invasive and way more disinfecting! I didn’t even need an anesthetic. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Had my cleaning with Vera and she is really thorough and detailed. Dr. Luke Jacobsen did spectacular work by fixing a discolored, protruding implant done by another dentist. I am very pleased with everyone that works at West Valley Natural Dentistry and it’s important to me that they are fluoride free and practice natural dentistry.
Had a visit with the hygienist and inspection by my dentist Dr Luke Jacobsen. The hygienist did a great job totally painless, and visiting with Dr Jacobsen is always a pleasure. Highly recommended this office to all my family and friends.
My husband and I were referred to WVND and were very pleased by the service provided, friendly staff, and advanced tech that was utilized. So far the results have been great, and we are looking forward to continued care with Dr. Jacobsen and crew.
I had an awesome encounter with Dr Jacobsen and was very pleasantly surprised with his willingness to thoroughly investigate a complex situation and resolve my reoccurring my tooth and jaw pain. Office staff was also very friendly and worked effectively together. Thanks so much!!!
The staff is so caring, and Dr. Jacobsen is wonderful. My heartfelt thanks to the staff, who assisted me with a very difficult situation! You girls ROCK!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!
Coming from a dental background, I was very anxious about finding the right dentist in Idaho. I was on the fence about traveling back to Seattle for my dental care. I am beyond impressed with Dr. Jacobson and staff. He is passionate in regards to using the best solutions for my complex dental needs and conservative and practical in prescribing the treatment plan that best fits my needs as well as my budget.
We LOVE Dr. Luke Jacobsen! However both of our visits yesterday with the hygienist were less than satisfactory. Asking us about our medication history and medical diagnoses for a simple cleaning was intrusive. And not using the saliva "sucker"enough caused a lot of uncomfortable drooling and choking. She did a good job on the cleaning otherwise.
Dr. Jacobsen took time out of his holiday weekend to fix a tooth that was killing me! Even in this time where businesses are short staffed he took the time to come in on a Saturday. He didn’t have to do that and could’ve told me I had to wait till Monday. I was very pleased with how he went about taking out my tooth! Thank you again!!
Excellent care and attention to detail! Very happy with this office and it was my first visit. Both the hygentist and dentist were the best. I highly recommend!
The team here has stuck it out with my angry tooth. After so many failed attempts with other dentists I finally have someone in my corner. They have been patient, understanding, and always have done their best. Will be a client for life!
Finally a dentist who supports better, alternative options, and supports my decisions with me and my families decisions with our dental health. The entire staff is amazing... Feels more like friends than the "scary dentist".
Highly recommend this dental office. Both professionally and for the quality of the support staff, who have been very responsive when emergency care was needed. The dentists are exceptionally qualified both technically and socially. Ss ional techns
Some older postings are quite biased with entitled people, but the energy here is great! They give an incredible service that's more involved than regular dentists. Basically everyone I know doesn't like going to dentist appointments but this new group does so good and shows that they care from the moment you walk in. They're helpful in understanding any issue and explain the solutions. They're on point as much as possible and work hard to help with insurance billing.
Wonderful dental office. The staff is super friendly, the hygienist is thorough and dentist is knowledgeable and funny! Our friend referred my family there a year ago and we have been totally satisfied. Love this place!
If you are looking for a wonderful, clean and caring dental practice, West Valley Natural Dentistry is it! They have an amazing hygienist, Erlinda who is so kind, informative and has taught me so much about proper gum care. I genuinely feel cared about through their practice and highly recommend them.
Amazing work, always consistent, I love my Hygienist Erlinda, she is without a doubt why I come back. There are a lot of places to go but when I go here, sometimes I think Erlinda loves and cares for my teeth more than I do! Amazing team and I never not look forward to dropping in for my cleanings. My friends think I’m crazy for loving the dentist, but the people here make the difference, especially when you know they are invested in YOUR health. I recommend all my friends to ask for Erlinda!
The BEST, most knowledgeable, & informative dentistry I’ve ever gone to. I am so happy that I made the switch from my old dentistry to this amazing atmosphere of a place. Erlinda was assigned to me as the dental assistant & I couldn’t be more grateful that she was. She was so kind & really gave me the best advice to correct my small cavities, as well as to whiten my smile, the most non-painful way & cost-efficient. It’s also really amazing how the doctor asks you your teeth & smile goals, leads you to the next step in getting what you want. NOT TO MENTION - it’s natural!!! The products they recommend etc., is just amazing & exactly what we need more of these days with all the toxic ingredients lurking in our skincare products like toothpaste or mouthwash. I will recommend this dentistry to ANYONE & EVERYONE I ever meet! When my son gets teeth this is where I will be taking him too!!!
First time here and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Erlinda did a great job cleaning my teeth & explaining best practice for preventative care. Thank you!
Erlinda at West Valley Natural Dentistry is amazing — kind, quick, and thorough. She is very thoughtful and makes the overall experience painless. Would highly recommend Dr. Davis and his team.
I have receding gums and have dealt with gingivitis for years but ever since going to West Valley I have received the best advice for how to improve my oral health. Erlinda (hygienist) has educated me on how to take care of my teeth and gums like no other dental hygienist has. I finally have nice pink gums instead of sore red gums like in the past! Dr. Jacobsen and Dr. Davis are up-to-date on the latest technology and innovations in this field , while also very attentive to my wimpy self when it comes to dental procedures.

Excellent dentist. Re-explained many dental mysteries to me in a way that made sense. His sense of humor put me at ease and gave him energy for solving problems in new ways, and created a nurturing environment for support staff. Everyone was kind and fun and flexible. Pricing was fantastic.
Erlinda is the absolute best. I don’t love going to the dentist but when you find someone who treats you with respect, and cares 110% about what she is doing it makes it much easier. Dr. Jacobsen does a great job explaining policies and procedures as well.
They asked me if the dentist did any impressions. I said, “No. But he told a lot of jokes.” Excellent dentist. Re-explained many dental mysteries to me in a way that made sense. His sense of humor put me at ease and gave him energy for solving problems in new ways, and created a nurturing environment for support staff. Everyone was kind and fun and flexible. Pricing was fantastic.
Erlinda and Dr. Jacobsen provide comprehensive, transparent, and compationate care. Erlinda takes time to explain the "why" behind my periodantal problems using diagrams and all! She is very patient with all my questions, listens, and provides clear, concise descriptions. Dr. Jacobsen also is transparent, calm, and I never feel rushed by him. He listens well, makes sure all of my questions are answered, and shows me everything! I couldn't ask for better care. I am so pleased to have found them!
I couldn't be happier with Dr. Jacobsen and Roxie today. Seriously so informative, gentle, thorough and helpful. I was told i needed a crown by another dentist and today they said he couldn't in his right mind do a crown and it wasn't necessary. I have another appointment for a cleaning and a couple fillings next week and honestly all of my anxiety is gone ... im actually excited to go back. Super funny, calming staff helps make everything enjoyable!
What a pleasant experience! We loved West Valley Natural Dentistry. Erlinda is already having a profound affect on our family since we left we’ve mentioned things she taught us often. A true gem of dental hygienist who has so much passion for the health of her patients. A fluoride free office and not one where they shove a screen in front of the kids for their visit but instead talk to them as intelligent people as they clean their teeth. I respected the opinions of Dr Jacobsen right away as it was clear he believed in the teeth’s ability to heal.
I'm a new patient to West Valley Natural Dentistry, and I must say I am very impressed. My RDH, Erlinda, was so informative and really helped educate me on the current state of my dentition and what I should do to promote healthy teeth in the long run. I was seriously impressed with how much knowledge Erlinda had, but even more impressed that she took the time to educate me-which truly in priceless. Dr Jacobson was also really great and I feel like they really want to help people. I look forward to staying a devoted patient.
My husband Ryan and I recently found this place and we love it, very professional and they even have a massage chair in the office. The staff and Dr were great, they were reasonable with prices and fair. Our hygienist Erlinda has so much personality and is very informative, caring and helpful. Erlinda tops the overall experience for me. Never have I ever had a hygienist that was so expressive and helpful, making sure I get the best care and walk away with information to better take care of myself. We are looking forward to returning and the overall experience I would highly reccomend this place.
Very thorough and kind people. They work efficiently. Difficult to find another dentist that works [mostly] naturally in the Treasure Valley area! Bonus! They have the best massage chair in the waiting room that would lure you back anytime.
This is a review from a Patient of ours that wanted to leave a review but does not have access to do so. Here is the copy of what she said. Thank you so much Kathy for your kind words! I would like to give a great big THANK YOU to Rich Davis of West Valley Natural Dentistry. I had to have a major dental procedure an was very nervous about it. It was amazing how smoothly everything went- not a lot of pain, no swelling or bruising and he made me feel very much at ease and answered all my questions. THANK YOU!!!!!
I've been there several times and everytime I go, I am greeted by a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. I was particularly nervous going in for a root canal, having been warned by everyone I told that I wouldn't be able to eat regular food and that I would be in a lot of pain. However, after the procedure had finished, there was some initial tenderness, but by the next day, the pain was hardly noticeable! Dr. Davis and his staff always do an amazing job!
These guys are amazing! I brought in my whole family including a 2 year old who is usually terrified of dentists and doctors and they did a fantastic job. Great atmosphere, great service, great people. We would definitely recommend Dr. Davis and his staff.
Very knowledgeable, professional, friendly, caring office. Dr. Davis and staff work very well together. Dr Davis and Amber were very gentle and patient. In removing my Mercury fillings, I felt safe and protected. During this procedure they seemed to use extreme caution as they isolated the tooth, gave me protective eyewear etc. Staff wore a protective "gas mask" with a face shield. In needing a crown, I love that I can get everything done in one day. My crown fits beautifully, BTW🤗.. Thx everyone!

Erlinda my dental hygienist has been cleaning my teeth for many years now, I came in to have my teeth cleaned after not being to the dentist for many years, I learned I had Periodontal disease, it’s been a long process of attempting to get my teeth back in health, Erlinda has done a fantastic job, I see her every three months, she takes the time as if working on her own mouth, if I could give her and everyone else there 10 stars I would, I have had everything from inplants to extractions and bridges, fillings and bone graphs, Dr Phost, Dr Davis and Amber have always done a great job, making sure I’m comfortable and not in pain and taking the time to explain the process, thank you Westvalley dental and all your staff for keeping me smiling.
This Doc and his staff are compassionate/caring. Had my mercury fillings SAFELY removed. Doc Pfost and his assistant went WAY Above the call of duty on this one..... Bless 'em all. Highly reccommened....A+++++++++ -Joel 9/15/2016
My entire family have had all our dental work done by Dr.Pfost for 28 years. Dr. Pfost is the most compassionate and gentle dentist that we have ever used. I would send a friend to see him anytime. He does beautiful work on crowns too.
I have worked for Dr. Pfost for over 30 years. During this time I have observed his compassion and caring for his patients. He is considered "holistic" as he is concerned about how his procedures and the materials he uses affect a patient's overall health. I not only work for him, but he is my dentist and I highly recommend him.
I love my dentist. I have posted how amazing he is with crowns, cavities and now I get to brag about Vera. I got my teeth cleaned and she made me comfortable. Vera was compassionate, quick and efficient! I had all the work I needed done earlier this year after switching dentists and I am not sure why I was nervous about a cleaning but Vera made me not nervous at all. I am entirely happy with everything this office can provide. My own children are starting to come here too!

I have been coming here for many years and been through many of your dentist and cleaning experts and it has always been a pleasure to come in. I do miss some of your former employees but appreciate your new ones too. I have not dreaded coming in for any appointments!! Thank you

I can’t thank Dr. Luke Jacobson and his team enough for the wonderful care I receive here! I’ve been to many dentists and have always had to be skeptical as someone that’s looking for a more holistic approach. I can finally say that I’ve found a dentist that’s exactly what I’ve been searching for! The doctor always answers my many questions. gives very thorough explanations, and focuses on your whole mouth/body to provide care that’s best for your overall health. I also always get the best treatment from any hygienist I’ve seen, they are all kind, listen to you, and make you feel comfortable. So grateful to have a such a wonderful natural dentistry and I would highly recommend them!
Donna E.
We had an emergency and Dr. Jacobsen worked us in and solved the issue. Great service!

Dr. Luke Jacobsen is simply the best in all the ways! I'm super happy with his communication, professional skills and knowledge as a much needed natural dentist who provided my family with healthier treatment plans! He's wonderful with kids, is funny and and overall loving and caring guy. The staff was great too. We are definitely dedicated to Dr. Luke!
Martha H.
I am so excited everytime I go to my new dentist. He removes amalgam safely is the best key. Dental dam, chorella, vitamin C and you too. I had a cracked crown replaced and it was all done at the same appointment appx 2 hrs. I used a massage chair while I waited too. My small cavity at my last appt was just numbed and lasered. So cool, and of course composite filled - no crooked smile because the numbing gel was good enough. Dr. Luke and his staff are all A+++++
Otis S.
Broke a tooth. 1st time customer and liked they were "natural". Glad I did, now a customer forever. Fixed me right up, made a plan for my future visits. Made me feel comfortable and assured. Nice feeling these days, especially going to the dentist.

I have finally found a dentist I can trust. Dr. Luke Jacobsen truly cares about his patients. He takes the time to answer questions and his staff is very kind. He is honest and doesn’t perform or suggest unnecessary procedures for self gain. I have to tell you about a wonderful procedure called NightLase that he performs on people with snoring problems. I have tried expensive custom made mouth guards that cost in the thousands that didn’t work, I have bought the tape to tape my mouth, have ordered plastic mouth guards that you mold yourself through Amazon that get full of bacteria and actually don’t really fit my small mouth.

Dr. Jacobsen has been my dentist for several years now. I initially found West Valley on the Internet when looking for a more natural dental experience. I interviewed Dr. Jacobsen at my initial consultation and found him to be highly knowledgeable about natural dentistry, and with a caring and personable attitude. He is an "artist" truly in how he approaches fillings and crowns. I trust his skill absolutely. My search for the best dentist is over, because I have found in Dr. Jacobsen the excellent type of dentist I can stay with indefinitely.

What an accommodating office...the whole staff! And Dr. Luke Jacobsen...this dentist hums while he's working on your mouth. After taking a photo, he agreed that he could fill a tooth without numbing. No pain and quickly finished!

This is the very best dentist I have ever been to. I am extremely fearful and this Dr. Jacobsen has really changed my fear factor to addressing issues with my teeth.The entire staff is so kind and patient! Not to mention the outstanding work that has been done to my teeth!! I would recommend this dental office to adults and children!!! Excellence is hard to find especially for dental care that is up to date and safe! I could not be more pleased !!!!
Bethany W.
I love this place and recommend them to people all the time. I love that they have a more natural approach to oral care and understand the dangers to common dentistry practices that jeopardize people’s health. I trust them.
Christine
I am SOOOO excited to have found this dentistry! Their methods and professionalism are just was I was looking for. The staff is super friendly, and the dentist is very genuine, super knowledgable, and seems to “do to others what he would want done for himself”, which is refreshing to find! I also love their more natural approach… I just had a cracked tooth filled by them, and I couldn’t be more pleased. The ozone laser therapy was minimally invasive and way more disinfecting! I didn’t even need an anesthetic. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Vera is amazing. 💚💚💚💚💚💚

Had my cleaning with Vera and she is really thorough and detailed. Dr. Luke Jacobsen did spectacular work by fixing a discolored, protruding implant done by another dentist. I am very pleased with everyone that works at West Valley Natural Dentistry and it’s important to me that they are fluoride free and practice natural dentistry.

Had a visit with the hygienist and inspection by my dentist Dr Luke Jacobsen. The hygienist did a great job totally painless, and visiting with Dr Jacobsen is always a pleasure. Highly recommended this office to all my family and friends.

My husband and I were referred to WVND and were very pleased by the service provided, friendly staff, and advanced tech that was utilized. So far the results have been great, and we are looking forward to continued care with Dr. Jacobsen and crew.

I had an awesome encounter with Dr Jacobsen and was very pleasantly surprised with his willingness to thoroughly investigate a complex situation and resolve my reoccurring my tooth and jaw pain. Office staff was also very friendly and worked effectively together. Thanks so much!!!

The staff is so caring, and Dr. Jacobsen is wonderful. My heartfelt thanks to the staff, who assisted me with a very difficult situation! You girls ROCK!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!

Gratefully to have found West Valley Natural Dentistry. Just what I was looking for, couldn’t be happier with my overall experience.
Michael S.
It’s always a good visit. I appreciate the expertise of the staff and how friendly everyone is as well.
Kim
This is a dental office that supports my alternative natural life style with my health. And doesn’t do anything extra that you might not need. 😊
Jo S.
Coming from a dental background, I was very anxious about finding the right dentist in Idaho. I was on the fence about traveling back to Seattle for my dental care. I am beyond impressed with Dr. Jacobson and staff. He is passionate in regards to using the best solutions for my complex dental needs and conservative and practical in prescribing the treatment plan that best fits my needs as well as my budget.
Brenda A.
Dr. Peterson is great. He put my trust back in dentistry.

Excellent experience. Vera was very skillful and informative.

Good through cleaning, thanks so much.
Susan K.
We LOVE Dr. Luke Jacobsen! However both of our visits yesterday with the hygienist were less than satisfactory. Asking us about our medication history and medical diagnoses for a simple cleaning was intrusive. And not using the saliva "sucker"enough caused a lot of uncomfortable drooling and choking. She did a good job on the cleaning otherwise.
Benjamin H.
Dr. Jacobsen took time out of his holiday weekend to fix a tooth that was killing me! Even in this time where businesses are short staffed he took the time to come in on a Saturday. He didn’t have to do that and could’ve told me I had to wait till Monday. I was very pleased with how he went about taking out my tooth! Thank you again!!
Linda W.
Excellent care and attention to detail! Very happy with this office and it was my first visit. Both the hygentist and dentist were the best. I highly recommend!

The team here has stuck it out with my angry tooth. After so many failed attempts with other dentists I finally have someone in my corner. They have been patient, understanding, and always have done their best. Will be a client for life!
Jason R.
Finally a dentist who supports better, alternative options, and supports my decisions with me and my families decisions with our dental health. The entire staff is amazing... Feels more like friends than the "scary dentist".
Helen R.
Highly recommend this dental office. Both professionally and for the quality of the support staff, who have been very responsive when emergency care was needed. The dentists are exceptionally qualified both technically and socially. Ss ional techns

Staff is very friendly & knowledgeable!One feels comfortable & confident that the work done is done with the patient's wellbeing as first priority.

Some older postings are quite biased with entitled people, but the energy here is great! They give an incredible service that's more involved than regular dentists. Basically everyone I know doesn't like going to dentist appointments but this new group does so good and shows that they care from the moment you walk in. They're helpful in understanding any issue and explain the solutions. They're on point as much as possible and work hard to help with insurance billing.
Arden
Fantastic crew and top notch service. Highly recommend for biological dentistry.

Wonderful dental office. The staff is super friendly, the hygienist is thorough and dentist is knowledgeable and funny! Our friend referred my family there a year ago and we have been totally satisfied. Love this place!

If you are looking for a wonderful, clean and caring dental practice, West Valley Natural Dentistry is it! They have an amazing hygienist, Erlinda who is so kind, informative and has taught me so much about proper gum care. I genuinely feel cared about through their practice and highly recommend them.
Lucas S.
Amazing work, always consistent, I love my Hygienist Erlinda, she is without a doubt why I come back. There are a lot of places to go but when I go here, sometimes I think Erlinda loves and cares for my teeth more than I do! Amazing team and I never not look forward to dropping in for my cleanings. My friends think I’m crazy for loving the dentist, but the people here make the difference, especially when you know they are invested in YOUR health. I recommend all my friends to ask for Erlinda!
Hope B.
The BEST, most knowledgeable, & informative dentistry I’ve ever gone to. I am so happy that I made the switch from my old dentistry to this amazing atmosphere of a place. Erlinda was assigned to me as the dental assistant & I couldn’t be more grateful that she was. She was so kind & really gave me the best advice to correct my small cavities, as well as to whiten my smile, the most non-painful way & cost-efficient. It’s also really amazing how the doctor asks you your teeth & smile goals, leads you to the next step in getting what you want. NOT TO MENTION - it’s natural!!! The products they recommend etc., is just amazing & exactly what we need more of these days with all the toxic ingredients lurking in our skincare products like toothpaste or mouthwash. I will recommend this dentistry to ANYONE & EVERYONE I ever meet! When my son gets teeth this is where I will be taking him too!!!
Jeremy C.
First time here and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Erlinda did a great job cleaning my teeth & explaining best practice for preventative care. Thank you!
Avery R.
Erlinda at West Valley Natural Dentistry is amazing — kind, quick, and thorough. She is very thoughtful and makes the overall experience painless. Would highly recommend Dr. Davis and his team.
Emily N.
I have receding gums and have dealt with gingivitis for years but ever since going to West Valley I have received the best advice for how to improve my oral health. Erlinda (hygienist) has educated me on how to take care of my teeth and gums like no other dental hygienist has. I finally have nice pink gums instead of sore red gums like in the past! Dr. Jacobsen and Dr. Davis are up-to-date on the latest technology and innovations in this field , while also very attentive to my wimpy self when it comes to dental procedures.

Excellent dentist. Re-explained many dental mysteries to me in a way that made sense. His sense of humor put me at ease and gave him energy for solving problems in new ways, and created a nurturing environment for support staff. Everyone was kind and fun and flexible. Pricing was fantastic.
Shane B.
Erlinda is the absolute best. I don’t love going to the dentist but when you find someone who treats you with respect, and cares 110% about what she is doing it makes it much easier. Dr. Jacobsen does a great job explaining policies and procedures as well.
Gertie K.
They asked me if the dentist did any impressions. I said, “No. But he told a lot of jokes.” Excellent dentist. Re-explained many dental mysteries to me in a way that made sense. His sense of humor put me at ease and gave him energy for solving problems in new ways, and created a nurturing environment for support staff. Everyone was kind and fun and flexible. Pricing was fantastic.
Barbara P.
Erlinda and Dr. Jacobsen provide comprehensive, transparent, and compationate care. Erlinda takes time to explain the "why" behind my periodantal problems using diagrams and all! She is very patient with all my questions, listens, and provides clear, concise descriptions. Dr. Jacobsen also is transparent, calm, and I never feel rushed by him. He listens well, makes sure all of my questions are answered, and shows me everything! I couldn't ask for better care. I am so pleased to have found them!
jacqueline c.
I couldn't be happier with Dr. Jacobsen and Roxie today. Seriously so informative, gentle, thorough and helpful. I was told i needed a crown by another dentist and today they said he couldn't in his right mind do a crown and it wasn't necessary. I have another appointment for a cleaning and a couple fillings next week and honestly all of my anxiety is gone ... im actually excited to go back. Super funny, calming staff helps make everything enjoyable!
Abbey L.
What a pleasant experience! We loved West Valley Natural Dentistry. Erlinda is already having a profound affect on our family since we left we’ve mentioned things she taught us often. A true gem of dental hygienist who has so much passion for the health of her patients. A fluoride free office and not one where they shove a screen in front of the kids for their visit but instead talk to them as intelligent people as they clean their teeth. I respected the opinions of Dr Jacobsen right away as it was clear he believed in the teeth’s ability to heal.
Rebecca C.
I'm a new patient to West Valley Natural Dentistry, and I must say I am very impressed. My RDH, Erlinda, was so informative and really helped educate me on the current state of my dentition and what I should do to promote healthy teeth in the long run. I was seriously impressed with how much knowledge Erlinda had, but even more impressed that she took the time to educate me-which truly in priceless. Dr Jacobson was also really great and I feel like they really want to help people. I look forward to staying a devoted patient.
Ryan M.
My husband Ryan and I recently found this place and we love it, very professional and they even have a massage chair in the office. The staff and Dr were great, they were reasonable with prices and fair. Our hygienist Erlinda has so much personality and is very informative, caring and helpful. Erlinda tops the overall experience for me. Never have I ever had a hygienist that was so expressive and helpful, making sure I get the best care and walk away with information to better take care of myself. We are looking forward to returning and the overall experience I would highly reccomend this place.
Alyssa Q.
Very thorough and kind people. They work efficiently. Difficult to find another dentist that works [mostly] naturally in the Treasure Valley area! Bonus! They have the best massage chair in the waiting room that would lure you back anytime.

This is a review from a Patient of ours that wanted to leave a review but does not have access to do so. Here is the copy of what she said. Thank you so much Kathy for your kind words! I would like to give a great big THANK YOU to Rich Davis of West Valley Natural Dentistry. I had to have a major dental procedure an was very nervous about it. It was amazing how smoothly everything went- not a lot of pain, no swelling or bruising and he made me feel very much at ease and answered all my questions. THANK YOU!!!!!
Aubrey B.
I've been there several times and everytime I go, I am greeted by a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. I was particularly nervous going in for a root canal, having been warned by everyone I told that I wouldn't be able to eat regular food and that I would be in a lot of pain. However, after the procedure had finished, there was some initial tenderness, but by the next day, the pain was hardly noticeable! Dr. Davis and his staff always do an amazing job!
Cody B.
These guys are amazing! I brought in my whole family including a 2 year old who is usually terrified of dentists and doctors and they did a fantastic job. Great atmosphere, great service, great people. We would definitely recommend Dr. Davis and his staff.
Tina
Very knowledgeable, professional, friendly, caring office. Dr. Davis and staff work very well together. Dr Davis and Amber were very gentle and patient. In removing my Mercury fillings, I felt safe and protected. During this procedure they seemed to use extreme caution as they isolated the tooth, gave me protective eyewear etc. Staff wore a protective "gas mask" with a face shield. In needing a crown, I love that I can get everything done in one day. My crown fits beautifully, BTW🤗.. Thx everyone!
Chelsi D.
We have been going to this office for years. They are wonderful! Everyone is friendly, professional, and caring. I would highly recommend them.

Erlinda my dental hygienist has been cleaning my teeth for many years now, I came in to have my teeth cleaned after not being to the dentist for many years, I learned I had Periodontal disease, it’s been a long process of attempting to get my teeth back in health, Erlinda has done a fantastic job, I see her every three months, she takes the time as if working on her own mouth, if I could give her and everyone else there 10 stars I would, I have had everything from inplants to extractions and bridges, fillings and bone graphs, Dr Phost, Dr Davis and Amber have always done a great job, making sure I’m comfortable and not in pain and taking the time to explain the process, thank you Westvalley dental and all your staff for keeping me smiling.

This Doc and his staff are compassionate/caring. Had my mercury fillings SAFELY removed. Doc Pfost and his assistant went WAY Above the call of duty on this one..... Bless 'em all. Highly reccommened....A+++++++++ -Joel 9/15/2016
Suzanne L.
My entire family have had all our dental work done by Dr.Pfost for 28 years. Dr. Pfost is the most compassionate and gentle dentist that we have ever used. I would send a friend to see him anytime. He does beautiful work on crowns too.
Sharon K.
I have worked for Dr. Pfost for over 30 years. During this time I have observed his compassion and caring for his patients. He is considered "holistic" as he is concerned about how his procedures and the materials he uses affect a patient's overall health. I not only work for him, but he is my dentist and I highly recommend him.
