Dr. Gillette and Roxy were thoughtful, kind, and professional throughout the entire experience. They took the time to answer questions, made everything feel comfortable, and provided excellent care.
They really do care Rikki, Janica and Gillette were amazing! I let them know up front about the “white coat effect” and they worked with me. Dr.Gillette really cares for your health and not about the dollars$$$$!!!!! Which is difficult to find. I’m from Texas but there’s a good chance that when I need dental work that I’ll make the drive!!!
If you have trauma like me or are scared of the dentist, i recommend coming here first. Everyone was extremely accommodating, very welcoming, and very kind and understanding. I did not feel judged or rushed by anyone here and they stopped immediately, everytime i asked them to for a break, without complaints, as well as constantly asking if i was ok to check on me and make sure i was comfortable. They were very communicative and professional, both while doing my exam and while explaining next steps to me. The exam and waiting room were both very quiet and easy to relax in. With water and coffee both available and comfortable chairs. This was a great experience for someone like me with PTSD from the dentist. I recommend coming to see them!!
