"From Gina at the front, Lori as my hygiene specialist to Dr Alex, what an incredible experience. I enjoyed the professionalism and consultation that Dr. Alex discussed with me. He pointed me in the right direction as to what we need to do next in my dental initiatives. He gave me options and guided me towards next logical steps then how we need to proceed with confidence."
