The receptionist and clinical staff was friendly and explained the procedure of my appt. I.e. Xrays, cleaning then Dr evaluation.

I am a person that gets nervous when I go to the dentist. This was my first time going to this office. As soon as I met the dentist he made me feel comfortable like if we knew each other for a while. That helped ease my fear. The staff were very nice and helpful.

October 6, 2023Gary C.Verified patient
Convenient and decent dental (medical) staff, but the office staff is horrible. Poor communication, no update or apology for almost a 30-minute wait past appointment time. No offer to book next appointment when I checked out for the current appointment. I would rate the office set-up at a 7/10; not dirty, but not the most modern either.

Dr. Griesner is super friendly. Him and his entire staff made me feel at ease and ensure that everything went smoothly. I was out in under 30 mins!

The staff was welcoming and friendly. Dr. Harvey was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor which made the appointment go so much better. I ended having to have a root canal done and was having alot of pain. My root canal was done the same day and I am feeling much better!
March 4, 2023Kisha J.Verified patient
His staff is excellent, very professional and friendly. The doc was very thorough and took the time to explain things to me. He also got a lot of work done in a rather fast time. Dentist is always painful, but this one wasn't that bad. He also has great bedside manner, fun personality too.
February 6, 2023Chris O.Verified patient
Maria was nice while I was waiting, the lady who did my X-rays moved realllllly quickly and some of the pieces were definitely uncomfortable but it was ok overall. Dr. Harvey was solid, I was in and out. I will be back it was a solid overall experience.
