Absolutely amazing experience. So very caring & compassionate!! They went above & beyond to accommodate me on a tight schedule to use my dental benefits before the end of the year. I had delayed dental care to to some larger health issues, and have had a rapid decline in dental care. They made me feel so much better, and adjusted schedules to get everything done.
