“Just had to leave a glowing review for Kevin Smith! He’s been my dentist for years but today he went above and beyond to give me an incredibly thorough cleaning in RECORD TIME so I could make it to an important appointment. He’s the best dentist I’ve ever had in my life. Also need to shout out Sandy who holds it all down out front. Thank you both so much!”
