“One of my favorite things about our practice is the close knit, family feel we maintain both as a team and with our patients. I’ve created our practice to prioritize time with patients and avoid the ‘assembly line’ model. My team and I welcome all patients without any judgment or criticism of their oral health. My goal is to allay patient anxieties so they can feel comfortable and safe while we complete consistent, high-quality care.”
