I think I found my new dentist! I’ve had the same Dentist my entire life (who retired) and I’ve been looking for another perfect practice. Dr. Nichol, his office staff, and dental hygienist were all just wonderful. I’m very pleased with their professionalism and kindness.

Our experience is that ADC has the best team - office staff and technicians who really care about the patients, are very helpful, considerate, and professional. Then there is Dr. Nichols was carries the same ethic in all his procedures and time with patients.
