I took my son here to get a root canal. Everyone was nice and friendly. Didn't have any rudeness or discomfort from anyone when I went like the comments say. I went to a different office, and they mentioned that whoever did his root canal that it was done wonderful. For another dentist to compliment the work, well, that said it all. This office does an amazing job when it comes to a root canal.
