Dr. Hinterman and his staff do great work, and I trust them. I've gotten much better, but I have been afraid of going to the dentist since I was a kid and they make me feel comfortable here. Their office is very nice and I would recommend them to anyone.

This is by far the best dentist office I have ever been to. The building and entire facility is beautiful and clean. Large windows in each station makes it feel open and comfortable instead of like you are in a cramped dentist office. Dr. Hinterman is great to talk to, but, as with any office and any routine cleaning, you really spend the most time with your dental hygienist. Ali is absolutely amazing. We talk about all kinds of stuff each time and make jokes and just have fun - a hard thing to do when getting your teeth scraped. 100% would recommend!

Greatest dentist we have EVER been too...fabulous office environment, great hygienists and receptionists, thorough and modern in every way...and Doug is the most gentle doctor of all time. Signed, Doug's Mom (seriously, you will never go anywhere else after you meet Doug and his staff).

Top notch dental practice. I made the right decision to leave my previous dentist and to come here. Only issue that I've had is that you cannot get routine 6 month check-ups--they have to schedule 8-9 months out between visits.

Dr Hinterman and his staff have did an amazing job in the years I've been going there. They are attentive to detail, very caring and make sure all your needs are met. The renovated 'barn' studio is beautiful and very tranquil - I highly recommend this practice. Angie is my regular hygienist and is phenomenal!

Dr. Hinterman's practice is really superb. They've have an amazing physical office space, everyone in the practice is super friendly, from front desk staff to the doc himself. I had some pretty serious cleaning done on my teeth after a period of neglect. Staff was very gentle and made me comfortable. There was no upselling for services I didn't need. Super professional! I've never been happier with a dental practice.

I was looking for a great dentist and Dr. Hinterman came highly recommended. I've been impressed with his attention to detail and care when working on my teeth. I was also extremely impressed when Dr. Hinterman personally called to follow up with me after a painful infection in my gums. The office is full of helpful staff, a very comfortable environment, and great views of the country.
