In my entire life I went to one dentist Dr Jimmy McDowell he sold his practice to Jupiter Family Dental and Dr Kates. They know how novocaine works they know it takes more than 30 seconds to take effect! They also know how to and have people to do it outside of their practice if needed the correct way the first time. Not to mention when it comes to money they will work on it for you and give you a plan if needed for larger operations. If it is about money they will refer you to someone else that is cheaper but again you always get what you pay for they have cheaper people that they use or refer people to if needed. Honestly he's the only other doctor that I trust inside of my mouth! Other than Dr Jimmy retired.

I became a patient of Dr Kates to be closer to my home and he came recommended by a friend. He and the entire staff are friendly, knowledgeable, efficient, and attentive. It's nice to have such a professional office in my home town.

Short blonde girl who's been cleaning my teeth for years is amazing and absolutely the sweetest thing (I'm sorry I forgot your name) and dr Kates is such a nice genuine guy who'll help you get in and out as fast and efficiently as possible :) (perfect for those transitioning from kid style dentist offices to adult dentists personal opinion)

Dr. Kates and Pallie are the best dentist and hygienist in town. The entire staff is very professional and friendly. Very happy I decided to try a new dentist after going somewhere else for many years.
