    The staff was very nice and helpful, had a wonderful conversation about my doggie while receiving great service. I was helped quickly and informed well about everything going on with my teeth. Definitely give them a shot!

    Their team was really good and i felt super confident and comfortable with their care. I had been with same dentist for over 30 years and when he retired looking for a strong practice to switch over to. Also super convenient since i work downtown and easy to walk to.

    I am that scared kid who used to make excuses to visit the dentist even as an adult. Dr. John and everyone at the clinic made the experience pretty comfortable and nice for me. I would definitely recommend him to others.

    I had such an enjoyable time at the dentist today! Both dentist and dental assistants were open and fun and extremely informative. I think I learned more about the condition of my teeth today then I knew before. Excited to continue being taken care of by them!
