Dr. McCarthy has been our dentist since 2017 and we couldn't be any happier to have such a wonderful caring dentist. People are willing to travel over a long distance to see their favorite dentist. We are lucky to have found a wonderful one right in Andover, where we live. We also appreciate Amy, the dental hygienist. She is kind, caring, and very knowledgeable.

Superior office, professional, kind, gentle, informative. Feels like I'm going to visit family friends every time I have a cleaning. I was so afraid of the dentist due to a bad childhood experience and they have completely erased all my fears. I now have an excellent dental practice that I enjoy going to see! Thank you Krysten and Dr M and all the staff!!! Thank you!!!
