Here's the deal, I've been coming to this practice since I was in grade school. Simply because they are the best on all fronts. As long as I live in this area I will continue to be a patient at GoSmiles Gainesville. Dr. Abu-Bakr El-Masry and his hygienists are absolutely top notch. And shoutout to the front desk, they are all my favorite. Genuinely friendly and always great to talk to while I wait in the lobby. This visit in particular, I was unprepared with my new insurance information and Raquel handled it quickly and answered all my questions. She even gave me a fantastic GoSmiles branded clip with my appointment card for my next visit. She is a rockstar. Stay golden, GoSmiles Gainesville.
