NHC sees people, not problems, and recognizes that the time spent as a patient in a doctors office is only one factor in a persons overall health. Our leading-edge, integrated clinical teams work in partnership with patients, their families, and the communities we serve to provide whole-person care, prevention, and ongoing support. As a result, NHC is our neighbors first choice for health and wellness.
Differences in people and perspectives are acknowledged, encouraged, and addressed equitably. Individuals are valued members of their team or group, and have the support they need to do their jobs well. We honor patient choice, and patients can rely on NHC to be responsive, honest, and reliable at every point of contact.
Operational processes and decisions are informed by data, best practices, and stakeholder feedback. Communication, internally and externally, is clear and consistent. All aspects of the organization are in compliance with applicable rules, standards, and laws.
Team members pursue ongoing professional development to ensure high quality patient care. Any community member who has contact with NHC has the opportunity to provide feedback on the experience; and community feedback is regularly reviewed by leadership.

Nothing but friendly service from everyone in this clinic. I am usually scared during dentist visits, but Dr Smith is very patient and good at his job. The dental assistants are great at relieving my anxiety by talking me through what is happening.

I made the appointment yesterday for severe dental pain. I come to the appointment this morning at 7 am and was told they wouldn't see me because I had covid last week but am now symptom free after my quarantine time. I had already gone to the ER because of this and was told I had a tooth Abscess. Never have I been treated like this. If they weren't going to see me, they should have asked the questions and not even scheduled me.

I have had nothing but a great experience here! From the dentist to the assistants they were all super nice and seemed very knowledgeable. Before going here my first time I hadn't seen a dentist in quite a few years so I had quite a few cavities to fill... the gas was enough and some ibuprofen... and for everyone in these reviews complaining about not getting Vicodin after their extractions, regular ibuprofen works better than Vicodin and it won't cause any kind of addiction... not sure if any of those people have looked around lately but Vicodin and pain meds are the devil. Anyways LOVE LOVE this dentist. Ive always been super nervous about the dentist but they did an amazing job on my teeth and at calming my nerves. Will certainly be going back and definitely recommend

I have always had a great experience here. My dentist is so nice and patient and really explains everything so you understand. The receptionists and dental assistants are also super nice. I am so happy I left my previous dentist to come here.

My experience was very positive...sorry I haven't said anything until now. I recommended this clinic to my husband but he saw the reviews and decided to go elsewhere. I'm overdue for another cleaning and will see you then.

If you need dental work ask for Dr.Nguyen! Hope I spelled that right, it's pronounced "win". I have had a lot of work done by a lot of different dentists and this man tops them all! And everyone on staff was attentive and friendly! Seriously, I never write reviews but, this is important , especially if you've ever had bad dental experiences!

The staff were freindly. The doctor who did the deep cleaning my teeth needed after 10 years of not going to the dentist was nice and made sure I felt as little pain as posible. The only reason why I am not giving this place 5 stars is because of how far apart the appointments are and the fact that I had to scedule 3 seperate appointments for a deep cleaning. I know it's not their fault due to many appointments but it is a bit irratating.
