My son had a dental emergency and they were amazing. The staff was very friendly and helpful and Dr. Coffman did a great job with my son and was so nice.
Great staff they do xrays to the kids then let you in with your kids see dr. Dr tells you if they have cavities or not. Then they take them to do cleaning or procedure...
Best office ever! Best communication! Dental assistants are so beautiful and nice. Dr explains and gives us the best choice for our teeth to be clean and healthy highly recommended.
Great, great, service should be rated 5 stars. Staff was really friendly doctor is very patient and nice. They have 3 xbox360 for the older kids, a big theater with like 30 seats and free popcorn for kids. My son is 2 so he cries with all doctor and dentist visits but staff was really patient and there where like 3 dental assistants making faces and calming down my son while the doctor cleaned his teeth. It is a little far but it was 100% perfect service and this is going to be my primary dentist from now on. Definetly worth the time and drive and recomend 100%
