Very quick appointment - seemed a bit less thorough than past visits but potentially this was due to a "gentler" approach. Left feeling great and an excellent office location.

Kersten N. Checkmark Verified Patient

The whole staff was friendly, but my dentist was especially fun to talk to and made me feel comfortable. He was informative and didn’t upsell anything; in fact, he convinced me I don’t need teeth whitening. Just flossing ;) There was no wait either, and they were absolutely patient when I had to fill out the forms after already arriving a couple minutes late.
