My experience was exceptional. I was greeted by the Receptionist with a nice conversation which eased my nervousness. I appreciated the thorough exam and how well my procedure was explained by the Dental Assistant and Dr. Nunez. The best part... NO pain during or after the procedure. The whole team of employees were very friendly, yet very professional, just the best experience in every way! Huge "Thank You" to the entire staff at Joseph Nunez DDS, I absolutely love my new smile!
