Very kind and attentive doctors hygienists and office staff. This is my first adult (vs pediatric) dentist (I'm in my 20s) because I had pretty severe anxiety surrounding dental visits growing up. I am very comfortable here and I'm glad my family and I found their office. Highly recommend!

The best dental office I have been to. Everyone there makes you feel comfortable. They take their time and always ask how you are doing, even if it's just a cleaning. Hands down I would recommend this office to everyone!

I started seeing these doctors because I lived in Wilson and needed an emergency visit. I now live in lockport and wouldn't dream of going anywhere else. All of the doctors and staff are great! I'd highly recommend this office (& since I happened to be in today and ask - I know they're accepting new patients!)!
