This office was absolutely wonderful, from when we first walked in, the office staff are all very helpful and sweet. The dental hygienist and Dr. Dan were amazing with my son, they really took their time and were patient. They are also extremely thorough when explaining things. This was also his first time ever seeing the dentist. My son is usually sensitive when it comes to seeing the doctor, however in my opinion this was a wonderful visit and I am very pleased with everything. I highly recommend this office!
