My son was so worried for his procedure and the team did a great job of making him feel safe and comfortable. Nurse Katie was a rockstar with her encouragement and engagement throughout the entire process. The entire team from consult, estimates, scheduling, check in, and the procedure itself were patient, informative, helpful, kind and all around true professionals to work with!
While I hope we don’t need to be back for any future procedures, I would highly recommend them to anyone who needed a procedure done!! Thank you for being amazing!

As a patient who has had multiple visits, I can confidently share about the excellence in every aspect of care that is provided by this practice. Very welcoming. Each touchpoint -- from scheduling to follow-up -- offers warmth, genuine attention to detail and professionalism. They not only listen to my needs, but always go beyond my expectations, especially in the procedure room. This kind of standard of service is a rarity in today's world. The entire office is impeccably clean and comfortable, and the addition of the warm blanket was such a nurturing gesture. Thank you to Dr. Lawrenz, Jenny Dreyer and the entire staff for your caring & calming presence. As a two-time cancer patient, I have anxiety and a complicated medical history. Here, I have no worries; I know I'm always in good hands. That is a real blessing.

Semoms was truly a seamless experience. I had originally scheduled with mayo until I found they are out of network for their own employees coverage. I called my dentist (Park Dental) and they recommended Semoms. They were able to quickly get me scheduled for a consult and surgery date, all while being completely covered by my insurance. I never waited more than 5 minutes for anything in the office (front desk, X-rays, see the doc, etc). I will be recommending everyone to come here. I was very anxious about getting my wisdoms out but right away the doctor was knowledgeable, and informative and told me what he believed to be the best option for my case, and he really put me at ease. & the assistants were all warm and welcoming 10/10

All the staff were very friendly and caring when I brought my 96 year old dad to have a tooth pulled. They even brought him some socks and a blanket to keep him warm when we had our consultation :) .
So glad to have the referral to you guys - all went great .
