    I love the staff and Dr. Davidson is a top notch honest guy. I feel like he's helped me get a good handle on how my teeth are doing and where I need to put in a little extra effort. He takes the time to educate his patients and I've appreciated knowing more about keeping my teeth healthy!

    I may be one of the continuous patients coming to Dr. Dan since 1978 or79. I still have most of my teeth & I am a true dentalphobe. I recently retired after nearly 40 years as a lawyer. I hope that Dr. Dan will be there for me for the next 40. Great staff & super organized office,

    Dr. D has been my dentist for over 30 years but yet he doesn't age. When I had children he became their dentist as well. His staff has always been caring and helpful so much so that my children actually looked forward to their appointments. Dr. D knows his stuff, always has the latest equipment and keeps up with advances in dentistry. I've had to visit dentists in other countries and they all compliment me on the work done. Can't praise the man and his staff high enough.
