Dr. Godfrey and assistants are great! My son is autistic and they always accommodate him and try to make the appointments as quick and easy as possible. They've been having him come in often and "practice" just to get comfortable with them.

They've been so patient and always cheer for him when he let's them look. I even mentioned a toy he liked at a previous time so they went and found him another. Great people!

The front desk staff and dental assistant are rude as hell. Daughter has an appointment now. The first thing they do is shove the heat gun in my face hitting my forehead and hat. And almost yelling DOES ANYONE HAVE SYMPTOMS?!. After that giving them b. o. d. phone #, address the woman and rudely demanding we repeat the information because she can't hear through the stupid plastic wall.

Yet she skipped all of this with the mom and 4 young kids after us. Then after being called back the assistant had me sit in a chair. But kept getting mad because I'm some how in the way. After talking to the dentist I said I'd wait in the car. He said you can go ahead and wait in your vehicle. The same front desk staff swung the door open yelling at me YOU CANT LEAVE THE PREMISES! The main dentist is the only respectful person in this place.

Dr. Godfrey (I am not sure I spelled his name correctly) and his staff are amazing, when we first moved to Chehalis/ Centralia I was a little skeptical of coming to a new dental office but they quickly put that skepticism at ease and helped myself and my child feel comfortable.

We moved to Olympia and have kept our care at Valley View. The staff are so friendly and amazing. The doctor is so positive and caring. He explains everything before it happens and as he's doing it. Everyone goes out of their way to make us feel comfortable. Absolutely lovely.
