If I could leave 0 I would the other workers are so sweet and kind and considerate HOWEVER the dentist is a jack*** he doesn't care for anxiety and stop letting me come because I had to cancel a surgery after throwing up that morning. He also constantly called me she after my chart stated male. Wouldn't wanna go back even if I could.

Went in on the 13th for a cavity. Was pretty nervous it would be a root canal. They were super patient with me and answered any questions I had. It looked well done and I am super happy with the service I received. Going to the dentist is never a fun trip, I was made to feel as comfortable as you can get with a drill in your mouth XD 5/5

The office itself is so clean and inviting. I'm always a fan of places that offer free coffee! I had basically zero wait time for my first appointment. I have pretty bad anxiety and the hygienist was so great about checking to make sure I was ok, talking me through everything she was doing and really taking her time with me. Dr. Dangler was very pleasant and definitely knew her stuff. I am really glad I found this office for my dental care, I couldn't be happier with the care I received during my first appointment.
