I have been going to Dr Debbie since my little sister (who I take care of) was 4 years old (she's 15 now) and have always had an amazing experience from the ENTIRE staff. My little sister loves her so much that she doesn't want to age out. I now take my 2 year old there and have been taking him since he cut teeth.

They are always gentle with him and he is so calm with them. My kids don't have the whole "fear of the dentist" syndrome because these guys are awesome!!

We love Dr. Debbie! My kids love going to the dentist--even when they have cavities. She creates such a great environment for kids and everyone on her staff is very friendly and helpful. Dr. Debbie explains her procedures clearly and presents the options for treatment so we can make an informed choice. I can't possibly recommend her office highly enough.

Dr. Debbie is the best! She takes SO much time and patience with all the kids under her care, regardless of their age or behavior :) She is very knowledgeable. She is trustworthy. She is caring.

If anyone has ever worked in pediatrics, you know how daunting of a task this can be. Dr. Debbie makes it look effortless! She always greets us with a smile and kind words, making every effort to ensure her patients feel special. She is soft-spoken and motherly, and my kids are very comfortable under her care.

They never want to disappoint Dr. Debbie, so brushing at home has become so much easier! She has a large, open bay, so it's easy to see her interact with kids of all ages and personalities. It is so impressive to watch her with kids that are scared, kids that are ornery, and kids that are running all over the place! And she is calm and kind to them all! I will continue to recommend her to all of my friends, as I have been overly impressed by the care she has given my children, and all of the other patients in her care.
