SEE WHAT OUR DENTAL PATIENTS ARE SAYING

I had a new dental hygienist this time at well point dental.. She was so kind and truly took her time on my teeth cleaning. She generally seemed interested in what I had to say. Dr. Payne is always cheerful and seems to always make you feel comfortable in the dentist chair. I have been coming here for five years. It’s 25 minutes away from my house but always worth the drive. The front desk staff went above and beyond trying to find my insurance.
