Our team takes pride in the individualized care our practice offers to our patients. We are grateful for the hundreds of positive online reviews we have received. Every day we remind ourselves to over-deliver to our patients by adding value to their visit. At regular continuing education courses, our staff is challenged to develop both our professional and interpersonal skills. We often travel as a team to attend conferences to stay up-to-date on the latest in dentistry.
Through regular staff meetings and training opportunities, we strive to educate and elevate our dental team. Each of our team members is CPR certified, and we conduct annual trainings for HIPAA (Health Information Privacy) and OSHA (Occupational Safety and Hazard Administration).
When not at the office, our staff members are very involved with their families and in their community. They serve others with their time and talents in schools, churches, and community groups. We often participate together as a staff in volunteer and community activities.
