They take good care of me. No worries. Doc knows what he’s doing. He trained his Assistance well
The staff were welcoming and seemed to remember me. Surprising since they see so many people. Both the assistant and the dentist explained what they were going to do and then did it. When out of the room they told me " we will be back in about 5 minutes.". My crown looks very nice and fits perfectly.
I would recommend this office, every thing was clean and cared for.
I plan to return if I need something else done and recommend them for your dental needs.
Veronica Kaczkowski is a great hygienist and caring person. She explains everything she recommends very well and truly seems to want to do what's best for her patient. She makes the visit for cleanings a pleasure. Dr. Wells is great to work with also, just not as cute.
