I have been going to the dentist and hygienists for years now. They are super efficient. For example, I had x rays and a teeth cleaning this morning. I was done within 40 minutes. Everyone is friendly, especially the hiegentists. Very clean and relaxing atmosphere.

Great dental work. I had them do 2 fillings and I go there twice a year for cleanings. They are so gentle with my teeth. Very nice people. If I have to wait, it's never any longer than a minute or two. Definitely recommend them!

I called the office to see about getting an emergency appointment because I have an infected tooth that is very painful and have led to really bad headaches almost like migraine and they said it will be until 3/4 days later that they would have an opening. Then I asked if the doctor could at least call in the pharmacy for the same antibiotics he gave me last time for the same thing and they said No.

So here I am in a lot pain still, unable to eat, unable to sleep and unable to work for 3 days now due to the non - compassionate manner of this doctor and his staff. I am finally going to see my PCP to get a script for antibiotics. I will not recommend this practice nor will I go back. Hopefully this is helpful to someone and hopefully nor the doctor or his staff ever have to go through what I am going through. Thank you.

Dr. Stock and his whole staff are the best and so professional! Anne at the front desk is so nice and beyond helpful. Insurance can be complicated but Anne is great at explaining everything and answering all questions. I have recommended Palms Dental to many friends and coworkers and everyone who has gone has had a great experience too!

Don't know what people see in this place and everyday I get more angry at myself for choosing this dentist.it's been almost a year since I have been there for a routine cleaning.the hygienist is ok. ladies at the front desk are great.but that dentist.he said I had two cavities on the left side of my mouth.mm okay if you say so.did all this drilling and filling and the whole time just talking about everything under the sun as he was in my mouth.fast forward to the first of the year.

I had a hole in my filling which I let my new dentist fix.my new ask why did he put that kind of filling in? Who knows. I didn't ask nor was I given a choice. My point of this is I am in constant pain on that side and when I chew it feels like bone against bone or like broken chards of tooth jamming into my gums and jaw line. When detailed dental work is involved.

I need you focused on what you're doing not gossiping. I'd rather take an ass whoopin that go back to have him "fix" my issues. Save your money and insurance.just because they're in network doesn't mean they're worth not filing your claim yourself which is what I do now. never ever had issues like this with my teeth

I wish I could give 10 stars. Dr. Stock is the best! After a horrifying experience at another dentist, I swore I would never go back to any dentist ever again. The pain and trauma from the other dentist that I experienced, well, lets say I'd rather have my teeth rot out of my head. Yes. It was that bad. I went in, and let them know right off the bat that I was terrified.

And from front staff all the way back, I was treated so comfortably. I didn't even want to sit in the chair, but I did it.and I even went back for a cleaning! I fell asleep during it! This is by far the best dentist ever!

New dentist for me he filled a cavity and replaced a crown for me. He listened to me and numbed me more before doing his work as I was not numb yet. I felt no nerve pain or any pain during my dental work. Great dentist and staff. I will certainly be coming back again.

I surrender! After several years as a patient at this practice today's experience left me cold. The ladies at the front desk quickly got me in late in the day with a broken tooth. An x-ray was taken, the doctor examined the tooth and said I'd have to come back next week for a crown, only after an oral surgeon, he had recommendations, removed another tooth, three teeth away from the broken one, as the x-ray showed it may be infected.

This possibly infected tooth does not have any sensitivity whatsoever. Coming in on an emergency, I am dismissed and will now endure a broken tooth over the weekend. What kind of doctor does that and to a patient of standing? With the ability to make crowns in-house I can only guess that he was in a rush at the end of business and start the weekend.

My experience, at Palms Dental, was absolutely fantastic. Dr. Stock and Diana, his assistant are top notch. An A ++ team. No need to search Any further for a general dentist.

The service at Palms can't be beat. The staff are especially helpful, they explain all procedures and costs with patience and kindness. They go out of their way to make you feel at ease. I also like that this is a one dentist office, no long waits. Dr. Stock is easy to talk with and has a great sense of humor.

I found the front office and dental hyg. to be very capable and qualified. The Dentist himself, in my opinion, is egotistical and narsarristic. As a "dentist" he is capable, but when it comes to anything tough (like dentures) I found his work and effort to be unacceptable. He did issue a refund for my permanent denture because he could not get it to fit (he tried for 1 reline and about 10 minutes of his time. He also corssed the line in his conversation with me. Very unprofessional.

Don't go here! The front office is clueless. The dental assistant took 4x to get an x-ray of one tooth. The Dentist, whoever he was since he looked NOTHING like the pic on the website, had poor bedside manners. I waited forever and a day for him to come in the exam room. When he finally did show up he spent a generous 5 minutes with me. Told me I needed a crown AND a root canal. False.

I ended up getting a filling for my fractured tooth and there was nothing wrong with the one that "needed a root canal." Also the prices that Palm Dental charges are horrendous. Gouging liars who don't give a crap.
