    I had such a horrible experience at my last dentist that I switched. Dr. Heath and his team made me feel supported, welcome, and in control of my care. They were BEYOND patient with me. Because of my insurance, it costs me more to go to this office than my last one. I don't care. It's worth every penny to have the experience I had and leave with less anxiety instead of more. If you have ANY fear over dental care, this is your place.

    So thankful for the care and professionalism Dr. Gibson showed my son. We had a dental emergency right at closing time after my son was hit in the mouth by a baseball. When we walked out, we knew we had received top notch service. I highly recommend Gibson and Heath Family Dentistry.

    Dr Zieman continues to be the best dentist I have used. He is knowledgeable and skilled in all he does. His restorations are the best I have had both in color and shape. He is pleasant and makes a visit to the dentist an experience that I know I will be totally satisfied with the work. I am fortunate to have him as my dentist

    My first review at the bottom of this post but I had to add this update for those of you with children. This is from a visit this week. As a parent one of the most challenging life events is seeing your child in pain. The pain can be physical or mental. The incredible team at Gibson, Refroe & Zieman took care of both. A scooter accident left my daughter with not one but two severely chipped front teeth. The mental pain I had to watch her experience as she told me how other children called her names because of the teeth was excruciating. All I wanted to do was give her back her beautiful smile that she had always so freely shared with everyone she met. Little did I know how much more I would get from Dr. Kirk Heath. Working with the hands of an skilled artist he not only restored my daughter's smile, he did it without causing her the pain that would normally be associated with such a procedure. Gently explaining the procedure, guiding her in how to think of a happy place and basically putting her in a parasympathetic state was so effective I never saw a twitch or a tear from her. My daughter was calm and peaceful even through the multiple sets of shots that had to be given. Dr. Heath and his helper Kirk were like angels taking care of my daughter. They kept her from experiencing physical pain during the procedure and left he with such a beautiful and natural smile that her mental pain of worrying about how she looked was eliminated too. I cannot say enough good things about these two fine men. My gratitude for them is palpable and they will always be heroes to us. Thank you both. Dad _______________ Previous review: This is what a dental practice SHOULD be! From the very start every person at the office was professional, caring and knowledgeable. They went above and beyond to make sure all my questions were answered and that I was comfortable moving forward. Dr. Heath took the time to explain the "plan" moving forward. At no time did I feel he was rushed to finish up with me and get to another patient. He answered each question in full detail making sure I was comfortable with the explanation. Quick scheduling, coordinating referrals with other professionals, even free samples of Sensodyne toothpaste and coupons for discounts on other products to help promote a healthy mouth; a holistic approach to patient care was felt and appreciated. (Plus they have nitrous oxide for big babies like me :-) I don't normally post reviews but this dental practice went so out of their way to make me feel comfortable that I felt the need to return the favor. If you are looking for a dentist...please...start here...it will make your search very short.

    Dr. Gibson was excellent. Im a 77 year old with a lifetime of bad experience with dentists. Traveling in the area and needed help immediately. Got me right in and was very compassionate, quick and thorough. Wish he was in my home area. Can't say enough good things about him. Saved me.
