Justin is 3 years old. Needed an exam for Head Start. I was worried because he has ADHD and some autism. He did very well and loved the hygienist that worked with him. Very understanding staff.

We had a really good experience for my daughter’s first dental appointment. She’s 1 and skeptical of all things new but the hygienist and dentist were so lovely and patient with her and were so professional. Excellent experience with them! Unfortunately, we did have this appointment set up for 2 weeks ago and at check in, there was a mistake made and we waited for over an hour without being seen. We ended up rescheduling as I needed to get to work and 70 mins wait without an appointment was just too much. Good experience during our return visit though so am hopeful for positive experiences moving forward!

I feel like the dental assistant could have pulled me and my mom aside to discuss my recent conditions, instead of out in the open for others to hear.I think any assistant should always talk to their clients in private.Overall, the dental office looks safe, secure, and clean.

The appointment itself felt rushed. I spent more time at the front desk handling paperwork than I did actually speaking with the doctor about my toddler's care. She was diagnosed with cavities in two baby teeth, and referral out for extraction was presented as the only option. There was no discussion of alternatives like fillings, and no reassurance about how this might affect her jaw development or the eruption of her permanent teeth.As a parent, I needed more time, more explanation, and more reassurance than I received. I hope this feedback is useful as you think about patient communication going forward.However, I did have a very pleasant experience with the hygienist and the front desk staff.
