My experience during my first visit to the dentist was very good. There was a short wait, but once I was seen, she was extremely attentive. She completed the X-rays herself and provided an honest, thorough opinion. She referred me out appropriately and explained everything in a clear, easy-to-understand way. She has a great personality, the office was clean, and the overall vibe was welcoming and professional.
Verified patient
I would highly recommend the team of physician and her assistant. The explanation provided by the Dr. was very easy to understand and I found it logical. Her assistant was kind and helpful. Liked the cleaning service, loved the details shared by the Dr and enjoyed the cleanliness of the facility. Scheduling department was accommodative. Dental ceaning services I had received at other facilities, did not feel as rushed. The end-of-procedure feeling however was similar and I felt refreshed. Liked dr's empathy and friendly conversation. Overall a very good experience.

Honestly I loved the vibe at this office. You can tell these are people who care about you. Everyone was friendly and Dr. Ami was great. She explained everything so well!
My dentist was great. She kindly informed me of what my problems were without judgement and helped me feel ready for the next steps.
It's clean, you feel welcomed and comfortable. You are informed on what they are going to do, they ask about your well being and what you want to do this visit. They stick to what you want and the hygienist was thorough and gentle the entire time. I've only been there for cleanings so I can only speak for that.

Great experience
The appointment took way too long. My appointment time was 2pm for a routine check up and I didn’t leave until 1.5 hours later. After my cleaning was done, the doctor took extremely long time to come in the room to see me. Other than that, everything was fine but I would hope timing can be improved.
highly recommended!
