So amazed with their prompt, warmest welcoming smiles, quick online accessibility of first timer forms to fill out, and felt the sincerity from the friendly and professional staff and Dr. Banker. He is such a cool dentist, took time to explained the result of my X-ray or examination. Oh, and even when I first called for appointment they were very polite, friendly, and listened to my availability and needs.Just a very natural from the heart customer service not scripted or just pretending. The clinic was very neat and enjoyed looking at the wall paintings. They also care about your insurance coverage and not just wanted to over charge you. Thank you!!! God Bless You All. read less

I would say all entire staff are welcoming , Andi front desk manager is so organized and quick, every thing is ready when you are done. the hygienist ( I wish I knew her name) who worked on my teeth was so gentle and very professional. I think I met Ven Dental assistant who fixed my temporary crown and permanent crown with Dr. Bunker are amazing team. I had two crowns and two filling in same day. I really like to say that if your teeth need necessary care they will fix it. they don't overcharge you. They really respect to your timing and schedule.
Thanks all when I came out of office I was satisfied of result :) read less

I came here after being recommended from a close friend of mine. I had 4 bi-annual appointments which were fine, no complaints. But recently, I had to choose a different day than my typical day of the week and got paired with Dr. Qaisar. I had my cleaning done and was treated magnificently and wasn't shamed when she found a small cavity.I showed up today to get my filling and from the moment I sat in the chair to when I paid for my filling, it took 22 minutes....22! The fastest, easiest, and most fun (what??) filling appointment I've ever had. I'm glad to have been paired with her because her and her assistant were absolutely wonderful! read less

I’ve been going to this office for a few years now and today I was lucky to get a hygienist that was so so good. She was patient, educational, polite, light on her hands, so careful, I didn’t feel a thing. The best experience so far. No discomfort!
