These ladies that all work here are the best. We had to choose a new dentist after 15 yrs at ours and we asked around and we found Suzanne's office. We visited and have been here over 4 yrs now I believe. They do great work and offer care credit if needed. We are very happy with them

Brought my three year old here for her first dentist appointment and would recommend to anyone! They did so well with her and made her feel comfortable and not at all scared. Everything being done was explained to her and to me very clearly. Great office and staff and doctor, extremely friendly!

They take as much time as I need to feel comfortable about any work I'm having done or things I might consider that I need to do in the future. They're very gentle. They know I am anxious about being there and they are very patient with me and kind. I would recommend this dentist and her staff to my family and friends.
