Dr. Drefke is one of best dentists I have ever seen. He was quick and gentle when numbing my mouth. I felt no pain during my procedure and the assistants were great. I highly recommend Family Dental to anyone and everyone.

Dr Drefke has been my dentist for 30 years. I'm always satisfied with the quality of care and the efficiency of the work. Most recently, I went for my semiannual cleaning. I was brought into the hygiene area at the exact time of my appointment. The hygienist did a thorough job, including taking new X-rays. When she was done, Dr Miller came in--in less than one minute--to do a quick exam. The whole procedure took 30 minutes.

I went for my checkup, then I had to get a couple of fillings and I swear if it wasn't for the nurses I would've left that day, but I didn't. The dentist was very rude and kind of raised his voice at me. I won't explain what happened, but it was actuallu kind of traumatizing. Oh well, glad I'm changing destists.
