I have dental PTSD. Dr August made it easy to relax and made me comfortable. She empathized with me and explained everything so I would be less anxious. She gave me options that I can feel comfortable with. I plan to make her my primary dentist. Everyone was very nice. Very satisfied with this dental office.

The best experience I’ve ever had at the dentist! Lakita explained everything to me so thoroughly and they are all very professional at this facility. Dr. M is also amazing. I’m excited that I have found a new dentist.

They are always nice and friendly. The appointment was expected to take about 1 hour. It only took about 30 minutes. They were quick and helpful. The complimentary coffee is a major plus. Always makes me feel good to fix a good cup of coffee after an appointment. Thank you Dr. M and your staff! You’re amazing!
