Louann Williams2025-07-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team was very good and nice to me. They were very knowledgeable and respectful to me and they explained everything before procedure. They introduced themselves and they made me feel comfortable and welcome during the whole appointment Brandon Connell2025-07-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great place to get your teeth cleaned! Not sure if Rosa is the only hygienist there or if I just keep getting lucky, but she’s fantastic. She always makes me feel like a valued patient and does an excellent job not only cleaning my teeth but also explaining what I can do better at home. I’ll definitely keep coming back for my 6-month cleanings. Vaibhav Singh2025-06-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was quicker than ordering a coffee at Starbucks – my turn came in within 15 minutes of filling out the paperwork! Talk about flossing through the waiting room. Rosa, the hygienist, was an absolute magician. My gums are usually super sensitive, and I had a lot of buildup, but she was so gentle I didn't feel a thing. Seriously, it was like she had a cheat code for pain-free cleaning. She kept checking on me, like a flight attendant making sure you're comfy. Then the wonderful Dr Bhakti Patel came in for my cavities. She walked me through everything, step by step, making me feel as relaxed as binge-watching my favorite show. I practically fell asleep in the chair while she was working her magic. This place is definitely a filling good experience! Will be back in 6 months for my routine checkup.
