My son had an emergency dental need that the office was able to take him the next day as a new patient. Very accommodating office with everyone I spoke to with scheduling, billing and the work done on my son’s tooth. Would highly recommend the practice. Thank you again for an excellent experience!
So thankful Dr Wilkinson was suggested to me! I have a large complex about dental procedures and went the sedation route with him and I could not be more pleased with the the patience and care I was treated with. Both assistants I worked with were amazing and Tara is a queen too! Everyone I have encountered here is just wonderful. I absolutely suggest and will tout his praises to anyone looking for a new home for dental care.
Dental visits usually feel vulnerable to me. However, Each encounter From the staff was warm and welcoming. The experience was positive but overall my daughter and I have found our dental Home :)
Had my first appointment today with this team and the experience was phenomenal! I am someone who gets anxiety going to the dentist but this team made me feel at ease and relaxed! The professionals there understand their patients and their individual goals as well. I will definitely be returning and glad I found my new permanent dentist going forward.
5 Stars – Hands down the best dental experience I’ve ever had! As someone who gets very anxious about going to the dentist, finding the right team is everything. Friendly Dental Center truly lives up to its name, but Sam is an absolute star of the practice. She is genuinely amazing—calm, incredibly gentle, patient, and thoroughly reassuring from start to finish. She completely put my nerves at ease. Moving forward, I will only be booking my cleaning appointments with Sam. If you struggle with dental anxiety, do yourself a favor and request her!
