“I just switched dentist and this was my first visit to Dr Holtan. From the minute I walked through the door, my experience was so inviting. The front office staff addressed me by my name and was so nice.
Melinda, my hygienist, was super sweet and personable. We chatted the whole time. She did such a great time on my teeth. Walked out feeling so clean.
Dr Holtan was great. Easy to chat with and it wasn’t just all business.
This is exactly the place I was looking for after leaving my dentist of 20 years. The search is over. ”

“From the moment I walked into the office, I felt very comfortable talking with the receptionist, dental assistant, and the dentist.
Dr. Holton assured me that he would be able to perform the procedures that I was concerned about. I was very pleased with the visit.”

I have been to that office for over 30 years back when Dr. Price was the dentist . Dr Holtan had taken over the practice when price had past away. I was nervous to see a new dentist after 32 years , but glad to see familiar faces when I walked in . Dr. Holtan made me feel at ease while knowing I was nervous . Leaving a little tearful from all the memories created there , I was very Happy and pleased with the new changes . The staff is still amazing and so was the Dr. I look forward to seeing him and the familiar staff again. Thank you for taking such good care of our teeth and making us feel comfortable.

I like Dr Holtan. He is kind and funny and so personable!!! It is always hard to transition to a new dentist but not with him. He treated me like he had known me for years right from the start.

We are so grateful to have Dr Holtan as our dentist. He bought our previous dental practice and we are so pleased with all the positive changes he has made to the practice. He is patient and kind to his staff and you can see and feel the positivity he brought into the practice. Thank you for being amazing!! I love his work so much I am doing veneers with him. So far the process has been spectacular, he has kept me in the know about any changes or processes he feels would serve my case the best. He takes his time and he is honest and fair. He is the best dentist I have has in my life so far.

Dr Holtan is very professional.
He is thorough in his work and detail oriented. He explained my procedures so I understood what was to be completed and why. He was patient and empathetic. Both procedures I experienced went well and so did the healing. Dr Holtan is personable with a good sense of humor. His staff is professional, very friendly and attentive.
I highly recommend him.
