Yesterday's visit was teeth cleaning. The hygienist was excellent 👌. She was very careful with what she was doing and checked in to see if I had any discomfort during the procedure. The front of house is excellent. Very careful to explain everything in an easy way so that I understood what is going to happen on my next appointment.

I have found the " BEST " dentist. He understands a persons phobia about a dentist. He has been able to relieve my phobia & I enjoy him & his staff. I don't think that I will change dentists as I don't think there is anyone who treats his patients as fantastically as he does with compassion & understanding.The staff is very pleasant & welcoming when you arrive to the office.
