He was able to help many children who were timid or frightened about learning to ski and he enjoyed seeing how proud the children felt when showing off their newly attained skiing skills to their parents. As a ski instructor Dr. Evans goal was to help his students enjoy skiing so they would want to come back and he follows this same philosophy when it comes to practicing dentistry.

Dr Davey is amazing!! By far the best Dr my son has ever been treated by. He takes his time to explain everything to the parent but most importantly interacts with the patient. Shows so much compassionate care towards them. Going to the dentist can be a scary place for a child but not in this office. My son recently had 2 teeth extracted. Dr Davey honestly blew my mind on how he interacted and distracted my son on what was actually happening. It was over before we knew it. THANK YOU!

Fantastic for so many reasons. I needed to confirm the location, called a different office, and they were able to direct me to this office and confirm my appointment. Great systems instead of a "not my job" mentality. Dr Davey and his team were so great with my kids (4 & 2yo). Toys and engagement items were strategically placed, not just in one area that kids would have to leave and be upset over. My 2yo was a screamer and crier. They were gentle and efficient. Very impressed!

Been bringing all three of my kids for years & I can honestly say that every doctor we have ever had and every nurse we ever worked with here have been so very helpful & friendly & professional. They are equipped to keep the kids occupied/distracted, and their communications with the kids has always been age-appropriate as they've grown.

So thankful for nurses and doctors here! They did amazing! Our daughters had traumatic experiences somewhere else and were extremely anxious to go to the dentist again...but all 3 of our girls did great with the clear explanations, up to date and kid friendly technology and dentistry. I really didn't think it could be this much better! I don't think a child should be traumatized at the dentist if it's done well. We went to 2 different offices- Both were great.
