I'm not exaggerating when I say this is by far the best dentist I've ever been to. I've been to several dentists and I've always felt ashamed to have any problems or felt as if I was an inconvenience. Not once did I ever feel that way here! Everyone was so kind and gentle, I would recommend this dentist to everyone!

The dental assistant, Barbara Woods is rude, hateful and aggressive. She has cursed at me and even followed me in my car, throwing things at it. She is an unstable person. I would not advise anyone to allow her near their mouth.

Absolutely love Life Long Dental. They are amazing with children, my 3 boys actually look forward to the dentist. I have extreme anxiety going to the dentist but they always make me feel at ease and if I have an issue will get to the bottom of it and not just shrug me off. Can't say enough, if people ask for recommendations for a dentist I always suggest Life Long Dental.

Best treatment ever. Everyone was helpful calming and compassionate. Update: A week after my surgery (4 teeth broken beneath the gums) I had some gum pain. I called and left a message and the good doctor came in from vacation to help me. 5 Star service again. Mind officially blown. And customer for life.

This is honestly the best Dental office I've ever been to! It's a small office and can sometimes take a bit to get an appointment but dont let that discourage you because it's worth it, trust me! I have severe anxiety and they have a great way of calming me, especially Sandi. She talked every step through to me before and while she was doing it. Took great care to ensure I wasnt in any pain or discomfort. And also have this great way of picking up on ques when I need something and cant ask. She is so amazing and makes going to the Dentist not a chore lol Dr. Gillespie as has a very welcoming demeanor and you can hear them all talking casually with all the patients as they work which is nice because it gives the place a less sterile feel. I would recommend this practice to anyone that will listen!

From my lifetime experience Dr. Gillespie is one of two top Dentists that I have had the privilege to see. After my first two visits, I realized the importance he places on ensuring your visit is as comfortable and painless as possible. Due to previous dental care, This quality is paramount to me. He's prepared and he is extremely efficient with a flawless end results. My root canal took less than an hour not to include the crown work. The combination of his experience, knowledge and innate ability, has put him at the top of his career and among his peers. Lastly, after cancelling and missing some appointments, as a result of personal loss, I want to thank his professional staff for their patience . They all could have easily dismissed me. If you are looking for a top notch dental crew look no further you have found them.
