Saw Tami for my cleaning today and absolutely loved her. Usually I just go in and out about my business with my cleaning but I enjoyed my cleaning today with Tami vs all the other time I got my teeth cleaned. She was pleasant, kind, gentle, and comfortable to be around.

The front desk was very welcoming, when i asked for a walk in appt. I was able to get in the next day, and the rest of the staff was just amazing! The Dentist actually built rapport, and both Dental Assistant and Dr listened to my concerns. I walked away feeling like they genuinely cared.

I live out in Bethel. One of my friends referred me to Family First Dentistry. The staff were welcoming and attentive to all of my concerns and needs. In all my years, this particular visit has been the most comfortable so far. Dr. Madsen and his assistants were top notch providers. I appreciate everything they did for me. Awesome people!

Had a bad tooth that was causing serious pain not only in my head but my neck too. These guys got me in and fixed up in 4 days. Now no pain or any issues. Top of my dentist list here.

I cracked a crown while traveling in Alaska. I was able to get an appointment within 3 days at our daughter Jess' clinic. The dental assistant, Mary was a delight. We swapped family stories of our wonderful kids as we got connected as people, not just a walkin problem and a repair person. She prepped my tooth for the dentist to evaluate and rebuild. The dentist whose name escapes me, was warm, skilled and got the job done, and done well. I enjoyed chatting with the front office staff after the procedure. Family first lives up to their name. They rock!

I have had a long history with Family First Dentistry and my experiences have always been first rate. Candice, my long time hygienist is always king and gentle with my cleanings. It didn't take long to develop trust with her so now it is a stress free experience. While I don't know any of the Dentists by name, my experiences with them have been courteous and professional. Each one kind and caring in their own way. I would be remiss if I didn't mention their ultra friendly and helpful front desk staff. I've always felt like their team is on the side of my family. 5 stars.
