Dr. Ricketts is fast and efficient. Our original dentist retired and sold out to Dr. Ricketts, so i wasn't sure how it would work out, if i would like him, etc. This was only my second visit, but i do like him and will stay with him. The office and procedures have been upgraded, and things are different - but everything is an improvement.

Dr Ricketts made me feel very comfortable & kept me informed of each step during the entire procedure. I felt no pain. He is truly a painless dentist. He & his staff are very professional & courteous. I will recommend Dr Ricketts to all my friends.
