What patients say

Vibe: professional

The practice demonstrates strong overall satisfaction with predominantly positive reviews (13 of 16 five-star ratings) highlighting friendly, professional staff and excellent care for anxious and special-needs patients. However, significant concerns emerge regarding inconsistent communication, post-operative care gaps, and potentially aggressive billing practices that undermine the otherwise positive experience.
