Dr. Calahan is the most caring and kindest person I have ever met. He is very professional and treats his patients like family. I waited several weeks to get in with him, and let me tell you. He is worth the wait! His staff is off the charts amazing as well!

Dr. Callahan and Borders is a state of the art facility with all the modern dental techniques and devices. Everyone there is so friendly. I have scheduled oral surgery with Dr. Callahan and seem confident he will do a good and thorough job.

Dr. Calahan and his nurses Barbara and Lisa were phenomenal. They put my 9 year old who was having a gum grafting procedure at ease as well as myself. After the procedure Dr. Calahan called to check on my daughter to make sure she was doing ok. I had gallbladder surgery and my surgeon never called to check on me! God bless Borders & Calahan Periodontics!!
