Dr. Lopez is quiet but he acknowledges the patient and the parent my son has been here for a few years and I've never had a problem he is awesome! The staff is great, but the lady Keila that cleaned my sons teeth today was not friendly at all she did not greet us she didn't say hello my name is such and such I'm gonna be cleaning your teeth today. When my kid asked questions such as "what's this?" She responded "it's a suction" and once again when she was using the tool to get in between the teeth my kid asked "what's that?" She responded "it's for your teeth" after she was done she just got up and left she didn't say have a nice day or I'm done or anything at. She didn't acknowledge me at all either. When working for a business that's based around children you should know how to interact with children.

Had a bumpy start with one of the staff members over our insurance coverage but quickly got that issue resolved and other wise the place seems great! It was nice and clean! The staff was very friendly and fast! They made sure to send plenty of info regarding my sons situation, the needed procedures and preventative measures. It was our first visit so I may update this post before it's over but at this point I recommend them hands down to the other dentists we had to chose from. They don't put your kid to sleep to do procedures either!

My 2 year old gave them a hard time (Kicking and screaming and what not). But they were very patient with him and I truly appreciated that.

I have to change my review because their was a big misunderstanding on both the staff and my part. I was sent the full dental plan and I am satisfied with it. I am just unclear how the office came up with a co pay $78 for a safety fee. Either way the Dentist said it was a mistake and I am glad the problem was fixed.

Good staff and friendly environment. However, don't ask me to wear a mask when half of the staff isn't wearing one or sliding it off their faces.
