Absolutely love this place! Went here as a kid myself and then went to Dr. Cooks brothers to get braces. Had to bring my child of course. They always treat us so well. They environment is very inviting. My son loved that he got lots of treats! He was very comfortable for a kid that is usually shy. Would recommend to everyone!

My son was so nervous about going to the dentist. To say he put up a fight is an understatement. However, they were so patient and kind with him and he eventually was able to relax and let them do their work. They were also very helpful and knowledgeable about how to care for little teeth on little kids who don't like to have their teeth brushed.

Dr Cook and the staff at Just For Kids are absolutely amazing! They work so well with our autistic children. They are patient and understanding. Our children are no longer anxious to go to the dentist. We have been able to get X-rays and complete exams without any meltdowns.

Very pleased with Dr Cook, Jenny, and Bailey! My daughter who has big time dentist fears was recommend to JFK Pediatric, and they did amazing. We live on the west side of Evansville, but i have no problem driving to Newburgh for the type of care they provide. Every question we had was answered, and every concern we had was addressed. Most importantly my daughter received the oral care she desperately needed and she's not scarred for life.
