So this is the best kid's dentist in Oregon. Maybe on the planet. Today I took my daughter, who is 3, for the 2nd time to Dr. James. She cried when we left. Yes, when we LEFT! She wanted to stay and play with everything.
The office is incredible. First, it's decorated impeccably. I find that most businesses that cater to children are saturated in an over the top cheese factor. Nope, not here. You will not find one plastic scary clown face or creepy animatronic character. The waiting room is filled with great toys for kids to play with, comfortable seating for adults, and Macs! Yup, lots of iMacs to complete the check in process, and also for the little ones to play on. It's impressive. Then, we were promptly called into the appointment. The staff is SO nice. Amazing with children. They escort them back and allow them to pick out a new toothbrush and other dental accessories, and then put it in a popcorn box to take home. So cute. The check-up is actually fun for the kids. Each room is themed, (today we had the barn theme), but again, not cheesy at all. Very well put together. They give choices of movies to watch during the check-up, kid friendly flavors of fluoride, and they explain every part of the process in detail. It's amazing to watch. Before you know it they are all done!
They finish with a picture (so cute) that is printed and given as you leave. The kids also take a trip to the toy closet where they can choose 2 new toys to take home.
The entire experience is amazing. We live 30 minutes away and we will always make the drive to Wilsonville to see Dr. James. read more
