Ms. Buckins provided dental services to me and did an excellent job. She made me feel comfortable in her dental chair from the start, which is no small feat as I admittedly maintain a healthy fear of dental procedures. She listens to her patients; even the procedure was relatively painless and her clinical proficiency is top notch. If you are looking for a warm, professional and knowledgeable dentist, I highly recommend Dr. Buckins!

I wanted to take the time to thank Dr. Buckins for her amazing work, expertise, clinical knowledge, and amazing bedside manner. I was able to have my oral care done by her, which included the fixing of a significant discoloration on my front two teeth over the past 10+ years. Not only did she provide exceptional service, but also took the time to explain the plan and each phase of intervention. Her caring presence, attention to detail & creating an environment of luxury made it such an enjoyed experience I have gotten some amazing compliments on her work. She has a patient in me for life =)

Dr. Buckins is amazing!! She did a tooth extraction for me and did a great job and her injection for the numbing was excellent because I did not feel a thing! I would like to continue to go to her for that sole purpose of painless her injections are. Thank you so much for that!

I have to say this is the best dentist I have ever taken my daughter to. My daughter has special needs and her regular dentist said she needed an extraction and nobody would help me. I even tried the Western Dental in Lancaster off of J and they wouldn't even see her without an appointment. Dr. Buckins not only saw my daughter, but extracted that tooth in less than two minutes. I couldn't have been happier with the service of the entire team there. I will never take my daughter to another dentist.

Thank you so much Dr. Buckins & staff! In a scramble over my daughter's abscess on her tooth, the Doctor accommodated my schedule and saw my daughter & quickly taking action! You and your staff are very professional and calm—as a mom, I tend to panic over my children's health and well-being. Thank you for your kindness and knowledge. Your office is always so pleasant and clean.
