 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were seeing quite quickly compared to other visits. I can see an improvement in customer service in the front desk. The doctors and MAs are always very courteous. The issues I had in the past was how rude the front desk was. This visit was different. Great for improvement!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been taking my 13 y/o here since he was little and have always loved it. Today was the first visit for my non-verbal, level 3 autistic 3 y/o son. I was very worried, but the dentist was amazing! I am so happy b/c I know I had to take him, but the doc office is such a trigger for my son. She was able to work even with him moving, twisting and trying to run away.  I am so happy with the way it went.
