I had a dental emergency, dental insurance but limited finances for this unexpected emergency. The front staff and assistants are so friendly and great at making you comfortable from when you first walk in and Patty was amazing figuring out a solution with Dr Acacio to my dilemmaI can’t thank them enough for their kindness and professionalismI highly recommend them!!!!p.s. I do not like going to the dentist so when I say they are great… they are GREAT!
