Dr. Arvind J. Petrie, DMD | Tacoma

Dentists in Tacoma’s Union Avenue corridor tend to cluster around the medical offices near Tacoma General, but few maintain the kind of unblemished feedback that signals consistent patient experiences. With a 5.0 rating across 14 reviews, Dr. Arvind J. Petrie, DMD falls into that narrower category—no small feat in a field where even minor discomfort can skew perceptions. The practice handles everything from routine cleanings and fillings to crowns and extractions, though the absence of complaints about billing or scheduling in reviews suggests a focus on the basics done predictably well. Union Avenue’s mix of medical offices and low-key retail means parking is competitive, but the trade-off is easy access for those coming from downtown or the Proctor District.

The office sits at 1550 S Union Ave #150, Tacoma, WA 98405, a few blocks south of the hospital’s main campus. Questions about insurance coverage or same-day availability are best directed to the front desk at (253) 761-5422, though the lack of frantic one-star reviews implies most calls get resolved without drama. For first-time visitors, the map places it between a physical therapy clinic and a café that’s probably overpriced. Nothing about the setup screams innovation, but then again, most people just want their teeth fixed without surprises.
