Staff are incredibly nice and understanding. Dr. Palmer is an upstanding professional individual that truly cares for each patient (my entire family sees him). Dr. Palmer and staff always take care of your needs and often go above and beyond. Highly recommend!

It's interesting to note that all of the 1 star reviews are all people that have never visited this practice, which is a shame. I can tell you from personal experience being a patient here for the last 5+ years that the staff here is exceptional. I've never met a friendlier more professional staff in my entire life. And that would include Dr. Palmer himself.

. . he's just a genuinely nice person who takes time to talk to you and patiently answer all of your questions. I moved to Florida a few years ago and still come here to get my dental work when I'm in MN, just because I like them so much.

I’m not a person that likes to go to the dentist, but the people at River Bluff Dental are all so friendly and welcoming that I found myself a lot calmer than I normally am during my dental cleaning. Cassie is fabulous at what she does and is quick and gentle.

Great people from the time you walk in and you’re greeted by the front desk, to walking out the door after seeing Dr Palmer. Definitely will be back in six months for my next check up and cleaning!

Went in for a teeth cleaning after a 2 year hiatus, Julia was kind and went the extra mile making sure I understood exactly what she was doing. She offered me great advice to improve my home dental care and explained in detail how various processes like tooth decay work. She was also very helpful in evaluating my x rays. Dr.

Palmer stopped by to look at a couple of things and he is by far the best dentist I have seen. I have complete confidence in the care I receive here, I only wish I would be staying in the area to continue following up here. If you need any work done in the twin cities area this is the place to go.
