When choosing to go into the healthcare profession, pediatrics was a natural fit for Dr. Jennifer, who eases her patients through treatment by singing songs, storytelling, and listening. Dr. Jennifer feels rewarded knowing she provided the best possible care, and of course, when she sees her happy patients showing off their beautiful and healthy smiles.

Dr Pacella is wonderful! ...We went through a lot of frustration trying to find
a dentist who could see my daughter in a timely fashion and who would work with
us to figure out the best pain management plan for her, given her complicated
medical issues. ...We decided to go with Dr. Pacella and we were glad we did!
Dr. Pacella took the time to listen to us and help us select the best way to
get my daughter's work done given all her medical issues. She has a wonderful
demeanor and my daughter completely loves and trusts her, and so do I! We had a
lot of work done... it was totally worth it to get the right care and such
excellent service.
