After waiting 2 months for initial denture appointment for my brother who has a disability, insurance approval, initial visit with Dentist who said he wanted the impressions done, and multiple calls not answered for scheduling (2/23, 2/26, 3/1 and 3/3) I finally get a call today that the dentist doesnt want to do it. What a massive waste of time and just super poor service. I will call the insurance company and let them know that they do not provide this service even though the doc wanted to do impressions after the xray showed it would work. Super disappointed in the service, response, and disrespect for a client. Nearly 3 months of wasted time!! Not to mention the health risk it has put my brother in.

The dental office is a joke. You'll have an appt then they want to call you the day of to cancel due 2 short staff and now I call back to reschedule and they tell me they'll get back to me when they're ready to schedule those patients smh. This is ridiculous. I'll definitely will be going elsewhere. So unprofessional.

Waited 2 weeks for an EMERGENCY appointment just for them to say they can’t do anything because they didn’t have the staff. Dentist was very nice but all I got was a referral to go to a different dentist. This place shouldn’t be open if they can’t do anything for patients.

Just left the dentist. The dentist and dental assistant did an AMAZING job. So thankful for them. The ladies that checked me in to my appointment were so polite. They have a kid area which was super helpful. I can't wait for my next appointment! Thank you!!
