Unprofessional service. NOT thorough with care. Changes hands too much to be trusted as your family practice. Rude when questioned about care WE pay for. Disorganized.

Vague with information to help you make adequate decisions. Will simply not do pediatric xrays if it's difficult causing lack of competent care. Won't set foot in this practice ever again. I should have left and never returned when they kept referring me for expensive out of pocket periodontal treatments, but failing to ACTUALLY PERFORM ANY TEETH CLEANING.

Sam at the front desk is fantastic, and the saving grace for this practice. Providers don't respect their patients' time. Appointment scheduled for 8 and they casually roll in 5 after. Rotating door of hygienists. Been going here for almost 2 years and have yet to see a familiar face aside from Sam.

I enjoyed my experience here initially, but I unfortunately had my privacy extremely violated by a member of their staff while in the vulnerable position of sitting in the dental examination chair. I was not the only patient to experience this. (These are not allegations- the former staff member has been sentenced and is now in prison. ) They clearly need better hiring practices, security, training, and general oversight.

The office has also of course taken no accountability or apologized to the many victims in any way. I can never come back here because of this experience and I think others have the right to know about the incident before placing their trust in this practice.

I've been going here for 2+ years. 0/5. Go someplace else. Not sure when it started to go downhill. The front desk ladies are great, but the overall experience is terrible. Appointments never start on time. Last dental cleaning appointment started 30 minutes late.

I get there on the hour, check in, and wait 10 minutes to get called back. Then the dental hygenist gets pulled away and I sit in the chair for literally 20 minutes. Didn't offer to reschedule, didn't say why she had to leave, and no one came to check on me. It took 2 and a half hours for the dentist to fix a filling because she kept walking away to see other patients. She would literally leave for 10-15 minutes at a time. I had no idea how far she was into removing my filling. I wanted to leave, but by then she had already drilled into my teeth.

I had to be numbed 5 times since she kept leaving. I've never had this issue before. The last shot was under my tongue with no topical numbing beforehand. It was one of the most painful dental experience I've had, and I'm quite used to the needles. No apologies, no offering to reschedule, no warning about the painful shots.
