The receptionist was polite. Dr. Powells daughter is an excellent person and dentist. She was courteous, pleasant to speak with, and constantly checked if I needed anything. The parking situation could use an upgrade, I would remove that circle garden to make more room for people to enter an exit. I understand the importance of a good aesthetic but place that energy elsewhere.

Dr. Powell was great! He was a wonderful listener and communicator. He even walked me through my X-rays to show me potential trouble areas. I was definitely in good hands! Wait time was non existent as I was seen right away. Perhaps the best dental visit I’ve ever had.
August 16, 2021Robyn M.Verified patient
The dentist does your cleaning not a hygentist . Which I did not like , my teeth were sore for a week after he cleaned them. And between the exam rooms you see the person next to you it's not even a wall between the rooms. The dentist kept questioning me too on what I was telling him as in he thought I was lying..
