We had our first visit to the dentist here. I had so much trouble finding a dentist that was recommended and would take my insurance. I finally found this one and gave it a go since it was close to home. I have had some bad experiences with dentists personally and had been seeing so many scary news stories about young children dying at the dentist so it was not helping! My daughter was almost 5 so we really needed to get the dentist!
As soon as walked in, the place felt warm and inviting. It seemed new and clean. There was a Keurig machine and fridge stocked with waters and a separate room for the kiddos with iPads, Curious George on the TV, toys and books. My kiddo was drawn in immediately. The office staff was friendly and helpful as well.
Both the dental assistant and Dr. Jackie were so sweet with my daughter. They told her what everything was before using it and used child friendly terms. There was a TV on the ceiling for her to look at while having her teeth cleaned and checked. When they took her X-Rays there was a cute frog chair to sit in and in the middle of having her X-Rays, my daughter told me she was "so excited" and getting a prize for being good during her visit clinched the deal for her. She was scared to visit the dentist but this definitely changed her mindset.
I also appreciated not being told I should have come sooner or that if I had more children, they needed to come as an infant. It made me trust the doctor more!! As did being told no cavities. Thank you Dr. Jackie for a great first visit! I'm so glad we found a dentist we can use regularly. read more
