I’ve been going to Hill Avenue Dental my whole life and have always been taken care of by the staff. I can always trust the staff to do their best and always make me feel comfortable! The wax and hot towel experience always calms and warms me during my appointment!

I had a great experience with Dr Hartzell & her dental assistant. They were gentle & kept me informed what they were doing. I was shown pictures on the computer of the problem. I have already suggested them to a couple other people

We drive from Sioux Falls because we are so happy with Dr Amy Hartzell and her hygenists. Why change when we know she's the best!

Such a great place! Amazing dentists and hygienists! Everyone is so friendly and kind. I’m terribly anxious and they made me feel at ease with a wonderful paraffin hand dip and hot towel while they did my cleaning! Like a mini spa! Wonderful place, and would absolutely recommend to anyone with anxiety about going to the dentist. 🙌🏻

Friendly, Professional, Efficient, Good Listeners, Gentle Touch:
I recently had an appointment ot establish care and have a routine cleaning based on the number of positive reviews I found for Hill Avenue Dental. My experience was extremely similar to others who have submitted positive reviews. Making an appointment was easy and the interval between making it and holding it was surprisingly short. Amber, my hygienist, was very friendly, professional and efficient. She has a very gentle touch and let me know what she was doing and what was next at every step. Dr. Dotson is also friendly, efficient

First time patient here. So far, so good. Hygienist was very pleasant and gentle. Technology is first rate. Dr Dotson explained everything and I didn’t feel rushed at all. Receptionist was helpful. Bring your checkbook and get a discount. Real test will be at future appointments for restorative work. I’m such a baby...stay tuned.
