The staff were all very friendly and helpful and the facility was really nice and clean. But - I was so upset with this office because when making my appointment they did not tell me that they were out of network for my insurance. They took down all my info and let me proceed with them without warning me of that fact. So they went ahead and did a new patient appointment and a full set x rays which ended up costing me $160 out of pocket!
Then they told me all the work that would need to be done for my problem tooth and gave me an estimate of about $7500 - and that's when they told me that I was out of network (once I already owed them for the x rays). So I found another office in network which quoted me less than a third of that price. I really think it was slimey of them to not warn me that I was out of network until it was time to take my payment. This office's #1 priority is clearly getting all of your money that they can.

My 6 year old and I had our appointments at the same time! They were quick and thorough with both of us as well as very knowledgeable with our insurance and dates of specific services that could/couldn't me done at this time. My 6 year old had a great experience as well and always comes away with teeth knowledge and a goody bag (her favorite part!).
