Significant turnover. Always someone new. NCD (and their patients) would benefit from the entire staff (and the dentists from whom they take their cues) joining a class on Active Listening with a follow-up on Bedside Manner. I have found them to be disingenuous in their saccharin sweetness, inflexible to entertaining patient concern or options to treatment. Their pricing seems high and they are usteadfast and focused on the written, planned payment they can expect to the point of seeming pushy - the patient is just a means to an end, as with so many medical practices these days. I cannot recommend.

I love Nickel City. I have moved 30 minutes away and still travel to Nickel City for my dental appointments. Liz is a great Hygienist. She always asks how life is going and builds that personal connection before getting to my cleaning. She is so gentle and thorough. I feel comfortable and confident every time I walk through Nickel City's doors that my dental health is in good hands!

Always the best work done. Having temporary veneers so I'm ready for my permanent veneers in 2 weeks! I just got my premature Veneers and they look great. Dr Augello said if I needed any adjustments to let her know. I'm so relaxed in the chair it's Dr. Augello and her staff are the BEST dentist I have been to. Thank so much.
