The staff is always friendly and welcoming. The hygienist was professional and updated me throughout the treatment. Kendra recently went over and above to help my mother obtain dental insurance.

Always aware of how you are feeling in their chair. They have gentle hands. When's the last time that anyone has ever "felt at home" at the dentist office?! They are knowledgeable, meticulous...an they don't hold you hostage forever! 😁❤️

This was a really terrific experience for my nervous and inquisitive 7 year old. The hygienist was so patient and kind with him and answered his 1,000 kid questions to put him completely at ease. I wish I had her name so I could praise her here more and I hope we see her every visit!!!
The Dr was also so kind and thoughtful with him and very patient with his young visitor.
This was a great experience for a kid, I couldn’t be more happy to share a positive review.

Maddie is always so friendly. Explains everything and seems to enjoy what she does. Dr. Carroll is always pleasant and does far more than any other dentist I have been too. From check-in to check out wonderful experience.

There was no real wait time; hygienist Vickie was extremely pleasant, professional and provided helpful information. Dr. Lawrence was very professional, knowledgeable and provided helpful tips on gum sensitivity. I always have a pleasant experience with all staff at this practice!!!

I went to this Dental office on yesterday. I made my appointment the same day and was seen soon after. I receive the best care ❤ from all employees from the time l walked in until I was finished.
Professional and reliable,
Dr. Carroll is my Dr., but I was seen by another Dr. and was knowledgeable and pleasant.
I would suggest this office to anyone
My family of five would not want to go anywhere else

They were great. The front office, hygienists, and the doctor were all professional and friendly. Their office is clean and tidy. They frequently wipe down surfaces as a precaution, which goes above and beyond my expectations. The patient rooms are large enough that they don’t feel crowded at all. I would say that this is a fantastic place to be a patient.

Best dental experience I have ever had. Actually felt like I had gone to a doctor instead of a car wash for teeth. Dr. Lawrence was great.

As always my visit to dentist was excellent. I met the New member of the team and she was just as pleasant as Dr, Carroll . I have at one time or another been seen by other members of the team and they are also very caring.

Always a great atmosphere, love the hygienist and Doctors. They are very upfront with you in regards to how much your treatment will be after insurance coverage. Excellent office and staff!
