We love this dentist office!!! Dr. Judy and all of the staff are so kind and welcoming. They make the experience so enjoyable that each of my 3 kids (ages 8, 4, and 2) truly look forward to coming back every 6 months! My 2 year old came home from his appointment today and actually said "more dentist!" Speaks volumes of their compassion and gift with working in pediatrics. I highly recommend this dental practice!!

The BEST pediatric dental care you can find! The staff is amazing- super friendly, knowledgeable and compassionate- just an all around great team! Dr. Judy is phenomenal- takes the time to explain procedures and answer your questions, great bedside manner, extremely patient with even the craziest of kids (mine! When my youngest was a toddler, he was NOT easy to work on. Dr. Judy and her team handled the appointment with ease and smiles on their faces, like it was no big deal. So calm, comforting, and professional). They are excellent at keeping on time too- if your appointment is at 3:00, you’re

Dr. Judy and Miss Taylor are the best! My 5 year daughter had an appointment today to have 2 cavities filled, one of which was very extensive. We were at the office for over an hour, but the entire experience was delightful... sounds silly to say about having cavities filled, but it’s true! Dr. Judy and her staff have a magical way of making a child feel safe, secure, and cared for, all while making the dental experience FUN! Today with my daughter, they took their time, were very thorough with her and with me, explaining the entire procedure before, during, and after. Dr. Judy made silly jokes

Awesome pediatric dentist!! My child loved it here!! They made the visit fun and silly. They told him honestly what they were doing and showed him all the tools that could appear scary, but they made it so fun he was giggling. What a wonderful dentist who knows HOW to work with kids. I highly recommend. It's worth it even if they're a good drive to get to. We go over half an hour to use them.

My son is on the spectrum and used to have a very difficult time at the dentist. We've been to see Dr. Judy twice now and she's absolutely wonderful. The staff here is amazing as well. Karen (the hygienist) walked him through everything she would be doing, and let him touch the tools so he'd know exactly how they were going to feel in his mouth.

Took my 4 year old son here for his first trip to the dentist. He was nervous but quickly became comfortable with all the games and things to do in the waiting room. When we got called back the hygienist was very sweet and explained to my son everything that would be done. They had a movie playing and were very friendly throughout the process. He did great with everything including the x-rays. They were also great at explaining everything to me. Will be recommending to all my friends!!!!

I have been taking my toddler here for over a year now for general check-ups. He is not a relaxed little guy and does not enjoy being examined, but the team at Building Blocks does a really nice job of being flexible and getting creative with his visits! They are extremely patient with him and good at what they do. The waiting room is very clean and has toys and puzzles and the exam rooms are cute and also very clean and well lit. Very pleased with this find!

Dr. Judy has done an amazing job helping my step daughter get some pretty major dental work done with little pain and anxiety. Her staff is very helpful and easy to communicate with. The rooms are adorable and the waiting area is lovely. I would highly recommend anyone to Dr. Judy! She does an amazing job communicating with both the patient and their grownup.

The staff is very friendly and helpful. The Dentist (Judy) and has assistant (Katie) went over the appointment details very thoroughly and did not use jargon that was over my head. The office administrator at the front desk helped me schedule a future procedure for my daughter and went over costs line item by line item - I had no questions after she explained it because she had done such a good job. It seemed like they genuinely enjoy what they all do at this office. We just switched because we moved into the area and I am very pleased with this office and the transition over to it.

Very disappointed that I wasn't even able to schedule an appointment here. Back in 2014 my husband missed an appointment due to issues with our insurance. Then this week, I called because I was running late to an appointment for my 2 boys and was told if I wanted both boys seen at the same time I would have to reschedule and wouldn't be able to have a late afternoon appointment time for missing 2 appointments. I said I would take my business elsewhere. After thinking about this and feeling bad I called back today to rescheduling during a slow time for them considering I felt bad for missing
