Had a great experience at Gateway Dental - such a great experience that I had to come on and write them a review! The women at the front desk are knowledgable, sweet, and patient. The assistants and nurses are warm and kind. Dr. A and Dr. G (oral surgeon) were awesome and made a usually stressful/scary situation feel manageable. Highly recommend Gateway Dental!
