This was my 1st visit to a dentist in many years. I only had a cleaning but this was the best dentist I've been to in my life. Being that I need quite a bit of work (some preventive, some elective) I was really apprehensive about simply going for a cleaning and I was pleasantly surprised. She explained everything in detail for work I will need in the future. She was very gentle and possessed a degree of patience that was very calming. She conveyed sincere concern for my dental health and not once did I feel like I had a $ affixed to my forehead. Her hygienist was great, also one ot the best. The front desk was quite courteous and promptly filed my claim. I highly recommend this dentist.
