From the first person seen in the office to the hygienist, Laura, to Dr. Elliott was a pleasant experience. The kindness and compassion are deeply appreciated because many people may be anxious when seeing the dentist. However, going to your office, the staff is very pleasant and extremely professional. I highly recommend Dr. Elliott. Barbara Mazacek

I have been coming to Smith and Elliott for many years, and Dr. Smith has been my dentist since he joined the practice. The care he (and Dr. Elliott and the entire staff) has provided has been exceptional. But even that has been exceeded this year. On short notice, Dr. Smith saw a relative of mine who was not even a patient of his when she had a serious jaw issue, and he followed up as if she had been his patient for years. I also had an issue that required quick attention, and I was seen immediately and received highly personalized treatment and discussions to determine the best approach. I cannot recommend this practice highly enough.

Dr. Smith is hands down the best dentist I've ever had! I've had to go in numerous times over the last few months for various issues and every visit was great. I can't recommend him enough. He is also sees my sons and makes them more comfortable than any pediatric dentist they've been to. The assistants and receptionists are awesome too - I don't think I've met nicer ones. :-)

Called first thing in the morning for an emergency tooth extraction, they were able to squeeze me in the same day, took plenty of precaution to keep the pain and suffering to a minimum, 10/10, would have them pull again

My first time at this practice. I scheduled a cleaning and exam. Everything went very well. The people are very professional, patient focused and friendly. Cathy did a great job and was very gentle with cleaning my teeth. Vicky and Dr. Elliott did a thorough exam and I am scheduled for a procedure next week at the front desk. They certainly lived up to all of the great reviews that I had read! Thanks so much!!
