I have lived in Washington for about a year and needed to see a dentist. I did what any normal person would do and Googled "dentists near me" and found Pam Butterfield. This is a wonderful place with caring, professional, intelligent and fun people. I am so happy I found this dentist!

The Team at Dr Pam's office makes sure from Sherry and Team up front to Dr Pam and Team in the back that all goes as scheduled. Today was my cleaning and Caitlyn always makes the visit comforting with chat about what's going on and what I have been doing since last visit. She is always professional and making sure of my comfort while working on my teeth. Highly recommend this office and Team of professionals.

This is what superb patient care looks like in a dental practice. It is not only clear that they care about patient welfare, they also care about each other and it shows. Humor, time (no rushed procedures here), professionalism, and state of the art equipment are just some of the obvious things you'll note on your very first visit. My better half told me to try these guys and I am so glad she did (I have a history of anxiety related to dental 'care' in far-flung places).
