I can't say enough about Dr B and his staff they are very professional and friendly. Look nobody likes to go to the dentist but they make you feel at ease and do excellent work. I've been going to them for a few years now and will continue to go there . For me I feel that the way they treat me is the same way they would treat a family member

I've just had my follow up visit with the office and want to trumpet Dr. Bunting. He is absolutely the best. He takes the time to provide the issues that are easy to understand as well as options and his recommendations. Everyone on staff with the office are most professional and pleasant. Specifically, Michelle, who is my hygienist. Her mannerisms and knowledge is comforting. Truly represents the high standards of the practice. I was referred to Dr. Bunting by a good friend and I am so glad I made my appointment and am now a patient. Dr. Bunting is the best!
