Check your insurance provider prior to becoming a new patient! I was advised they took our insurance But after expensive services of cleanings and X-rays I found out we didn't have the correct ppo! The front staff should advise new patients to double check on there own that they will be covered! The dentist. Hygienist were both excellent and friendly just the front office/ billing needs to be better managed in dealing with new patients and provided accurate insurance information!

*in reply to their reply: like i said, i have been a decade long patient. meaning i was underage throughout a lot of my time with this practice. i shouldn't be held accountable for missed appointments when i was underage? how is that my fault? regardless, the appointment that was apparently the "final straw" was NOT EVEN MY APPOINTMENT. i am always attentive to being courteous and respectful of other's time, and, unless it is an emergency, reschedule or cancel in a timely manner. i'm confused as to why no one is acknowledging this mistake? not to mention, i was never informed of my dismissal until i attempted to schedule an appointment. now my care has to be prolonged further while i attempt to find a new dentist? amazingly disappointed. *original review: dismissed me as a decade long patient because they mixed me up with another patient with the same last name. that patient missed an appointment and they put it on my chart. sounds sketchy to me. crazy how much money i gave this business just to be thrown out over an issue they won't even put any effort into looking into. not to mention, they pulled one of my teeth and broke another in the process. when calling to schedule getting the broken one fixed is when they conveniently told me they dismissed me.

The staff is wonderful! They are great with both of my kids. They take the time to explain exactly what they will be doing, make sure any and all questions are answered, and the patient is as at ease as possible. I would not take my family anywhere else. A great group of people.

Went there to talk about a tooth removal. Wasn't sure I wanted that but after talking with Dr. Gailis I realized it was for the best to get it out. He said it would be easy to get out and 30 minutes later I was walking out without my tooth!! Little pain afterwards. The whole staff are very friendly. Will go out of there way to get you in as soon as possible. If you need to talk to them on the weekends both Dr. Tucker and Dr. Gailis are available. How many dentists care about their patients like that? Not many. Would definitely recommend these dentists for your dental care.
