Team
What patients say
Vibe: kid-friendly
The practice is highly regarded for pediatric care with exceptional staff warmth, patience with children, and efficient scheduling (12 of 14 five-star reviews). However, two one-star reviews raise significant concerns: one about cleanliness practices (not using gloves consistently), confusion during treatment, and unexpected billing charges; another about misleading website claims regarding age eligibility (under 21 only). These operational and transparency issues contrast sharply with the overwhelmingly positive patient experience feedback.
