Recent Google reviews
Dr. Vakil is an amazing and thorough dentist. He takes the time to explain everything clearly and never makes you feel rushed. He genuinely cares about his patients and ensures you understand your treatment options before moving forward. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate dentist.
Jadene is such a sweet and very gentle hygienist, she makes you feel right at ease and comfortable. Dr Vakil and Dr Otten are both very professional and only recommend what's completely necessary. I've been going to this practice for several years and highly recommend them.
Felt very comfortable as soon as I got there. I have dental anxiety and everything was explained thoroughly and the plan of care moving forward was easy to understand. So happy I found this office. Everyone was very pleasant and welcoming.
