    Good experience. Informed me about my teeth health and what can be done to make it better. A hygienist first did a cleaning and then he doctor came and examined the teeth and informed me what was needs to be done.

    She was professional and very helpful in describing on what I should do to improve my dental health. She was gentle and asked how I was feeling multiple times and made sure to stay attentive to what I had to say. She also recommended what I should do for further treatment down the line

    Dr. Petrova is very personable and skilled. I hadn't seen a dentist in a few years and she got me all cleaned and scheduled everything I need going forward, without shaming me.

    I had a good experience at the clinic itself. Dr. Stefka and her team were communicative and made me feel comfortable about my treatment choices etc. The only challenge is scheduling, but it eventually worked out
