I had a wonderful experience at my first appointment with Dr. Barnes and her assistant Shae. I’ll admit I came in a little nervous because my dental care growing up was somewhat inconsistent, but they immediately made me feel comfortable and at ease.
Dr. Barnes took the time to explain everything clearly and walked me through what she was seeing with my teeth without making me feel embarrassed or overwhelmed. I really appreciated the thoughtful and conservative approach she recommended — focusing on strengthening my enamel and addressing a few small issues rather than jumping straight to aggressive treatments.
Shae was also incredibly kind and reassuring throughout the visit, which made the whole experience even better. I left feeling informed, encouraged, and confident about the plan moving forward. It’s clear this office truly cares about their patients and long-term dental health. I’m very grateful to have found a dentist I can trust !

Dr Barnes was awesome. And the tech Katie was great as well. The staff at the front desk was friendly too! Detailed exam was what I needed and the Doc explained everything as she worked. Recommend to anyone!

Great dentist office. Courteous, professional, clean, simple - and at least on the day I went, they were playing good music at a perfect volume. Have just been for cleanings and routine care so far, but will continue to go for anything I need.
