Of all the dentists I've seen in two countries and three US states, Dr. Starley is the first and only dentist I would recommend.

The amount of hours I've spent in a dentist chair in my 28 years is more than most spend in their lifetime. I have a medical condition that has drastically affected my dental health, leaving me embarrassed of my mouth and in pain most of the time. Dr. Starley and his staff have literally changed my life by changing my smile and never once making me feel ashamed of the hand I've been dealt. They're gentle, compassionate and so good at what they do. My new smile says it all. We love Starley Family Dentistry.

Dr. Starley and his staff have provided me the best dental experience I have ever had. Being new to the area and without a dentist, I first called their office as a new patient in a great deal of pain. Unlike other offices who simply told me how far out they had an opening, Dr. Starley's staff instantly let me know what they could do to help me right away. Even with an already very busy schedule, they didn't hesitate to offer what they could, which shows how much they care. I have since had several procedures, and they are the closest thing to pain-free that I have ever experienced. Dr. Starley, his front desk staff, hygienists, and technicians all take the time to answer your questions, tell you what they are doing, and most importantly, ensure you are comfortable. I only regret I didn't call them sooner! Thank you Dr. Starley and the entire Starley dental team! I could not recommend you more highly - You have a patient for life!

Dr. Starley is the absolute best for anyone who has dental anxieties. He is a master at the numbing shot, I never felt the needle any of the times he has numbed me up for work. And he will always stop and take the time to numb it up more if there is any life left in the nerve. With previous dental experiences I have needed sedation, which left me in a fog for 2 days. But Dr. Starley can get the work done with a little nitric and smooth technique.
