Erica is the best hygienist I've had. She is so sweet and kind and is extremely gentle. Our whole family goes to her and loves her as well. Dr. White is very gentle and kind, we all think we would never go anywhere else for our dental work.

very customer oriented, facility is full mask and clean, staff is very attentive. always a treat to visit their facility. unfortunately, the office can't communicate with its disabled customers at the front door, which is cumbersome at best. how about installing a buzzer for the front door??

Terrible environment. All the techs are ableist and derisive, all the dentists obnoxiously brag about their crypto scams, trying to lure in patients, and the facility proudly displays iconography everywhere indicating their continuing partnership with our local police and firefighters, both of which are thoroughly abusive, racist, and queerphobic. I never feel safe in this establishment and only go because they take my insurance and are close by.
