Excellent! From the front desk to Tara to Dr Howard, every person was a pleasure. Educational, confident, calming... highly recommended.

Everyone was nice, courteous, I didn't have to wait long.
My appointment took a long time because I hadn't been to the dentist in years.
I felt the experience was more E xpensive than normal (the typo gets a through zoc doc filter).

Very efficient, great assistant also
January 20, 2016Greg K.Verified patient
Awesome experience. Dr. Howard was honestly the best dentist I have ever seen. The staff, and Theresa, were extremely diligent and helpful in getting me scheduled. Definitely go to Dr. Howard!
January 29, 2016Amy T.Verified patient
The staff was great, very cheerful and happy to see me. The only odd thing is that teeth cleaning is booked separately from the initial patient encounter, based on the hygienist availability. I'm used to cleaning just being an assumed part of that initial check up encounter. All in all, a very good place to go.
More than 1 year agoBrett S.Verified patient
I have lived across the country and have had great dentists along the way. I've also had a few who were high-pressure salesmen trying to get me to do the latest cosmetic treatment. Dr. Howard is not one of them. He is extremely personable, professional, and, along with his staff, did thorough assessment with appropriate interventions.
