Consider NOT visiting if you have preexisting health conditions. I was charged the new patient fee of $199 (which includes a cleaning) for xrays and to be told that they wouldn't do a deep cleaning on me because I have epilepsy. I haven't had a seizure in 10 years! When I was refused treatment, I requested a discount since I never received the cleaning, but they refused.
Immediately after, I made an appointment at the local clinic with no issues. I was informed by them that controlled epilepsy shouldn't be an issue for any treatment. The staff and dental hygienist were very nice, but it's not worth much if you can't get treated.

I had to get a tooth extracted, I recieved top tier care. I may be spelling her name wrong however Rhea & Jody was so unbelievably kind and very comforting along with compassionate to my fear and anxiety of the dentist. The dentist was super nice and kind, and very good no pain , exactly what you hope and pray for when going to the dentist. The ladies at the front desk also so very sweet and empathetic to my anxiety. If I had to get another tooth pulled or anything teeth related, I would absolutely go back here. THANK YOU.

I would not recommend this place. The doctor couldn’t be bothered to listen, let alone show an ounce of care or bedside manners. She clearly had no interest in what I had to say. Honestly, her staff showed more compassion and professionalism than she ever did. Save yourself the frustration and go somewhere else.
