You guys are the best Dental Office I’ve ever been to! The front office staff is so friendly and were willing to go the extra mile to help me out. I have to take a long bus ride to get to the office, but it’s worth it! The dental staff is attentive, gentle, and even entertaining! They talk to you before and after your dentist arrives and even engage you while they work so you know everything they’re working on as they do it. They were so gentle I could’ve fallen asleep getting my tooth drilled! I’m so happy to have you for my dental! Keep doing what you do best!
SandySeattleIt was super sweet of you to deliver my night guard to me at work. That was customer service above & beyond the call of duty! I am appreciative of the great dentistry & excellence you and your team deliver!…
KarenFederal WayThe customer service is great. The people that work on my mouth are very friendly. I’ve been going there for a while, at least a good seven or eight years, so we can laugh, talk, and joke. It’s very comfortable. It’s a great place to go. They’re very knowledgeable with what they do. They care about the patients first. It’s a very warm place to be with very friendly people. I highly recommend them…
