    My dental visit began with Dr. Morton explaining to me that children are awful these days because no one hits their kids. (Because health care workers who advocate for assaulting children is normal?) He then launched into a diatribe about how terrible Native health care is. At which point I turned to the assistant to clarify that SVT is owned by Seldovia Village Tribe. The staff is great. Too bad the doctor is awful. I asked the office staff to please contact me when they hire a professional to replace him.

    I highly recommend Christina Brubaker . She takes time with you, listens to you and helps get at the root cause of issues. She was instrumental in a diagnosis that no other dr. even explored . She is like a detective! Love her as well as the whole Anchor Point team. They work together so well. Thank you

    I appreciate the professionalism and care I received at SVT. Whether it was dental services, seeing a medical provider, massage, or acupuncture, all my visits were surprisingly enjoyable. I highly recommend their services.

    Doctor told me not to wear 2 masks at the same time literally 2 days before the CDC announced that people should be open to wearing 2 masks in caution of the new covid mutation. Also got told false information about my health status over the phone and when I went to the office to get a piece of paperwork signed to confirm it, they refused to. Make sure you always have a paper trail, people. Their patient portal is also riddled with glitches.

    I was a tourist driving around in a RV from another state. I woke up one morning with a terrible tooth ache and the left side of my face was swollen. We were driving through Homer and my husband tried calling local Homer dentists so I could see one and get an antibiotic prescription written out. One was on vacation. And one was too busy to see me. We stopped at SVT hoping they would see me. It was one of the dentists numbers we had called. I went to the reception desk to show her my face. She absolutely would not let me see the dentist because he was busy. It would have taken only five minutes for the dentist to come out and see my face and write a prescription. I ended up having to go to the Homer Emergency Room for help. The bill is $626.00 just for a prescription to be written. This shows a definite lack of compassion. This could have ended up a real emergency with the swelling moving into my eye. Fortunately everything worked out. It would have so much easier and so much cheaper if this dentist had only given me five minutes of his time.

    They have the friendliest staff, a comfortable waiting room, and reasonable prices (plus a sliding scale for those with low income). I always feel comfortable there.
