I highly recommend this practice. Dr. Gardner is an extremely skilled, highly professional and kind periodontist. She makes every effort to preserve teeth using laser therapy rather than just pushing to extract and implant. I never feel rushed while there, and she explains what she is doing every step of the way. After my last procedure, she even gave me her email and cell phone, so I could call or write with any questions or concerns (and yes, she quickly answered my emails!).
The staff is very personable, as well. Periodontal work is no joy, but I could not be happier. It is great to know I have this team on my side!

I highly recommend this practice. Dr. Gardner is an extremely skilled, highly professional and kind periodontist. She makes every effort to preserve teeth using laser therapy rather than just pushing to extract and implant. I never feel rushed while there, and she explains what she is doing every step of the way. After my last procedure, she even gave me her email and cell phone, so I could call or write with any questions or concerns (and yes, she quickly answered my emails!).
The staff is very personable, as well. Periodontal work is no joy, but I could not be happier. It is great to know I have this team on my side!
