When my older child had trouble at a previous dentistry we were referred here and have loved it ever since . The staff are always very appropriate and professional . We make a 30 minute trip to the dentist office , but it is worth the drive and time .

Horrible experience here. My son is still talking about "mean Dr. Cito" 4 days later. If a doctor is having a bad day dont take it out on a 6 year old boy who is already nervous to be there, when my son said he was scared the Dr said "we could have already been done with this if it wasn't for you" If you care about your kids well being and don't want them scared of the dentist never go here!

I enjoy bringing my kids here for dental visits because the staff are SO kind and helpful and the facility is nice. But I notice the appointments are seeming to always run late and the visits are super rushed when that happens and they seem to hurry you out the door as soon as they're able.
