The staff is very nice, helpful and patient. The office was clean and well organized. I was able to get in quickly and got calls and text messages to remind me of my appointment which I appreciated. I would definitely recommend this office.

I waited three months for my appointment. When I showed up. They had given it to someone else. I was sent text messages and I responded to confirm. They also called a few days ahead of my appointment with a random phone number but they did not leave a voice message. There system is terrible. The woman in charge was rude and had no respect for peoples livelihood. What a horrible way to treat the people who give you business.

Report
I showed up for my appointment only to find out it had been cancelled and given to someone else because I was not able to confirm my appointment the day ahead because of my work schedule. I asked what I was supposed to do now and I was told that I could reschedule and be seen in a couple of months or they could send my records to another dentist if I wanted. Horrible customer relations and I would give them zero stars if possible!

Try making an appointment 3 months in advance, text and call you to confirm your appointment then arrive to the appointment to know that your appointment has been given to someone else.
