Dr. Hanson sets the tone at his practice as a compassionate and professional office which only does work that is necessary. You won't have to worry about unnecessary procedures, he only does what you actually need. He listens to his patients, and has an excellent staff. The hygienists are excellent too, most likely due to his professionalism. I'm always seen on time, and the office is honest enough to recommend that I only come in once a year (you wouldn't hear that at other dentist offices), based on my teeth. Sue, one of the hygienists, is very thorough and genuinely cares.
