2024
I visited Downtown Dentists for my cleaning and dental exam. My Dental hygienist was incredible and Dr. Pagel very knowledgeable and thorough. I love the cleanliness and the professional environment. Doctors Pagel, Albers and Lyons are incredible and they deliver high quality of dental and implant care. The team is so friendly you feel like you are family there.
2020
This office is always friendly and professional. Dr. Betty Albers is my longtime dentist, and she is best I’ve ever had. She does her own cleanings so she can see for herself whether there are any issues (rather than rely on a hygienist to spot them). She’s frank and honest about the current state of my dental health. I know I’m in good hands with Dr. Albers!
2024
I have been Dr. Betty Albers’ patient for over 35 years. She is, by far, the best dentist I have ever had. She is smart, kind, professional and personable. Aside from the professional relationship, we have developed a very close and personal friendship. Her staff is exemplary. Betty is top notch and I recommend her highly.
