Verified patient
I was extremely nervous for my wisdom teeth removal since I could barely open my jaw. Doc made it as comfortable and fast as possible.
Verified patient
I visited the doctor after reviewing on Zocdoc. The overall experience didn’t start well. Front desk couldn’t verify my insurance information and wasn’t very friendly and cooperative. It took a while to see doctor due to insurance verification. Doctor came by as soon as my X-ray results were in. I informed him previous consultation and recommendations I received. He was honest and personable with his recommendation and helped me decide which route to go. Especially when he had the same situation himself, made it easier to connect. Office manager then came to help me understand the treatment plan and answered questions. Besides the first impression I’ve had to start the visit, my visit experience had improved.
Verified patient
The office staff was nice and friendly. The Doctor that I saw was also nice. She was also patient as a I asked questions and explained my situation. Lastly she was informative without judgment. I will definitely be returning for future services.
Best dentist I’ve ever been to, hands down. The staff is incredibly friendly and sweet and the doctor was very skilled and quick! Very happy I found this place

My tooth became infected, and the doctor promptly identified the underlying cause and provided immediate treatment. Excellent work! ??
Dr. Chemmae was very friendly and very informative. I felt cared for here and the entire staff is super sweet and great listeners. I’ll definitely be back for the rest of my dental work! Thank you again to everyone in the office for your care. See you next time! :)

Nothing, service went well.

Got us in when we had an emergency and even though he couldn’t fix the problem they gave my husband palliative care to alleviate his symptoms till we can be seen by who they referred us to
Verified patient
Amazing! Best experience at a dentist that I’ve ever had. They took the time to communicate and, even when a potential issue came up, the dentist and staff took the time to explain exactly what my options were. I felt like a patient and not like a number. Highly recommend!
Verified patient
Great communication
Verified patient
Friendly staff and professional cleaning.
Verified patient
The appointment was next day on a Saturday when most dentists were closed. I couldn’t sleep I was in so much pain! They saw me early the very next morning and I didn’t have to wait long at all- they keep their appt times. The dentist explained everything and more than I needed but left the decision to me. Because I knew they didn’t take my insurance, they discounted my price for a cash payment. He was quick, thorough, & explained what to expect during the treatment. The office has awesome & helpful people & a very clean office. Expensive for me, but I would definitely go there again if needed. They wouldn’t disappoint!
I'm definitely going back. The staff and doctor are friendly and they played a movie for my kids in the waiting area so I could go back in the room by myself. Lastly, I loved being around the racially and ethnically diverse staff!
Verified patient
Everyone was super friendly and helpful!
Verified patient
Outstanding experience, everything was very professional and comfortable at the same time. Every employee exceeded my expectations and the dentist was amazing. I kinda want to keep my new found dentist a secret, but this is definitely the place to go.
Verified patient
Friendly staff. Help me understand what I need done so that I don’t have any issues down the road. Easy to understand what my insurance covered
