my daughter has very bad anxiety when it comes to dentists. We have been to 3 different ones. The last one told me about Mrs Finazzo . I am so glad that she did! My daughter went right back there with her an I didn’t get called to go back there! My daughter came out smiling telling me how everything was explained in detail to her .

They were able to do X-rays cleaning And put sealant on her molars. Jody even went over And beyond when it came time for My daughter to get braces. Thank you so much !! What a great dentist and awesome team!

I’ve taken my youngest son here for the last few years. He refused to cooperate at the regular dentist, so I chose to drive him up to the pediatric dentist. We have had good experiences here every time. He watched the videos at his first appointment, let them count his teeth , let them brush his teeth & attempted X-rays.

I went back for the first visit only. In my experiences with my three boys, kids cooperate better without having mom to cling to. Same story for preschool, the longer the goodbye was, the more upset or difficult my kids were. I get the whole go back alone thing!

This was the only office who would get us in immediately for my sons dental emergency and I appreciated it so much! They were compassionate and comforting and even followed up with me to see how we were doing. Missy has excellent communication.

I gave a 1 because 0 is not available. My 2 oldest girl need dental work and my husband company changed insurance so we had to find a new dental office. We went to the office and the staff was great at first. The first set of procedures were done and they call to confirm for next set in the process they send we owned $200 more. I did understand because we ask for the bill before and after time of service, then I pay.

Now after some about 10 week with call for new appointment they say we own more money. After I tell her to send me the details she said she has to loom it up I'm now confused because you said your looking at my account and saw we own more money what do you have to look up. Sounds like some fraud. If that wasn't enough than my kids said mom we don't want ot go back to them any more. I ask why they both told me of there very similar and terrifying of being yelled at and made to stop crying now I was shocked because when they walked them out they said they both did great and didn't cry.

Looking back I thought it was odd that they didn't let the parents go back. They said it was do to the Pandemic. So I guess I didn't think anything about. Will never return and seek legal advice about how they are doing the whole operation.
