I got right in to see the hygienist. She was very efficient and is a pleasure to talk with. Dr. Doherty gave me a check-up and out I went. I look forward to seeing these two again. It is a pleasure to be a patient here.

I am very pleased with my visit. From check in to sending me on my way toothbrush in hand it was a professional and courteous experience. I'm afraid the only name I remember is Dan, who I presumed to be there primary dentist. Great guy and explained well. The woman who X-Rayed/cleaned my teeth was competent and polite.

We had a great experience! My two daughters and I were all seen during the same visit and we're in and out in a timely manner. Not to mention, It was our very first visit, we were treated with kindness and felt very comfortable.
