Dr. Acuesta-Laureta is methodical and efficient. She did my first cleaning in 3 yrs and filled a couple of new cavities, all in just over an hour. It’s always a pleasure to observe a professional do their job skillfully without skipping a beat.

I'm not sure I've ever had any doctor visit as pleasant as this one (much less a dentist)! Every single member of the office (doctor included) was so genuine, warm, and welcoming, and everything went very smoothly and I felt very well taken care of.
I highly recommend this practice (particularly for people who may have anxiety around seeing doctors).
