One could not ask for a more caring compassionate doctor. Dr. Austin explains every step, makes sure you are comfortable and checks on you through the process.
You can tell how wonderfully Dr Austin treats her staff by the way they treat the patients.
You won't find a better dentist office!
More than 1 year agoStacey L.Verified patient
There entire staff is so amazing. So many details that get covered. I had 2 old silver fillings refilled and both were top back and a difficult location but not for Dr. Austin and her team. At least 2 times they asked me if I needed a break to sit up, Everything is clean and organized. I highly recommend them.

Been going to her starting in June 2014. This particular visit was for a bite adjustment after I had some minor cavities filled,
Dr. Austin's staff are very friendly and accommodating. Every time I have requested something, they will try to make it happen and if you have a question, they will answer it with a smile.
Dr. Austin herself is very professional and knowledgeable. If you have a question for her, she will take the time to answer them.
All in all, I have had an excellent experience with Dr. Austin and her staff and would not hesitate to recommend her to those looking for a dentist.
