This place was great! The reception desk was friendly, had all my paperwork ready, got me right in. Dr Drake was friendly, answered all my questions, helped me feel at ease, followed up after the appointment and everything went smoothly and low stress. My regular dentist during a follow up visit said Drake did a great job! If I had to see an endodontist again, which I hope not, I would definitely go back to Dr Drake and team. Thanks for making an unpleasant experience like a root canal a relatively pleasant and relaxing trip. I highly recommend.

Super nice! I was experiencing a lot of pain and they got me in the same day I called! Where another office was going to make me wait two weeks for a root canal!

Referred for an abscess. The staff was very professional and courteous. Upfront about billing and insurance. Received a call after hours and was able to move up my appointment. Overall very happy with the experience despite the reason I was there.

I've had several root canals over the years due to bad genetics....Dr. Drake was very knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything in detail before the procedure and asked if I had any questions at all. The root canal was the most pleasant root canal I've had. I felt so relaxed and confident that he knew exactly what he was doing. After dealing with a nagging tooth pain for over 6 months it is nice to finally have relief. I would recommend Dr. Drake to everyone!!!!!
