The Most Important Question We Ask

“How Can We Serve You?”

That is the most important question we ask our Dentists every day at Affinity Bank, a leading full-service bank with a niche expertise in the dental industry.

“We certainly are a community bank,” says Ed Cooney, President of Affinity Bank. “But we define ‘community’ differently. We’ve moved beyond a geographic footprint to serve an industry footprint — specifically, the dental industry.”

What Our Dentist Say About Us

After nearly 2 decades serving the dental community, we have racked up some incredible stories. References are available.

“I just would like to say, I wish I had switched banks years ago!” I finally feel that I have found a place where people truly care about their customers and their businesses. The dedication to customer service I have experienced since joining Affinity is unprecedented in today’s impersonal world that we have all experienced at most mega banks. The conversion was effortless and, the at no charge, remote deposit is just a no-brainer.

Thanks, Affinity, for all the great people.  I look forward to a continued relationship for years to come.”

“Working with Affinity Bank during the transition of moving my office has been a true pleasure. The professionalism and commitment of the people at Affinity Bank is unparalleled.mThe bank helped make a daunting endeavor a smooth and enjoyable process. I truly appreciate the personal attention given to me by every member of their team.

Thank you, Affinity Bank, for creating a terrific experience by providing the expertise and support needed for a small business owner!”

“Securing a bank loan for the purchase of a dental practice can be an overwhelming experience. Affinity Bank first cared to know me as a person, and then recognized my ambitions to grow a pediatric dental practice to its fullest potential. Chris Cochran and his colleagues gained my trust because they met with me in person, realized my attributes, and showed good faith by offering a level of service that soared above and beyond the attempted efforts of big banks.

Affinity Bank’s support enabled me to feel confident in my decision to buy, assured my feeling of a secure investment, and best of all, allowed me to shine and provide the very best care for my pediatric patients.”
