Very nice staff, but we've been going here for years and in the last couple years, as the business has been growing, the wait for getting cavities filled is longer and longer. It now takes 6 months to get an appointment to fill a cavity! It's time for my kid's next cleaning by the time we get the cavity filled from the time before! This dentist has 3 offices in different towns and must have hundreds and hundreds of patients.

They need a second dentist or a reasonable number of patients.

My daughter Camila loves coming here because the staff is really nice and the dentist, Dr. Mike, is careful and knowledgeable. And we love Ms. Robin because she's sweet and patient when insurance takes forever lol
