Always take great care of me!!! Very nice Doctor and Staff
Best dentist I've been to... ever. And I've had some good ones! Moving from a big city several states away, my hopes were not high for finding a dentist as good as my last. But I found even better. Dr. Harris and her team are par excellence throughout the whole experience. Very focused on quality of service, the whole picture in terms of information and education, and making sure I feel comfortable, safe, and in good hands.
Dr Harris is kind, understanding and takes her time to give good information and help going forward. Best clinic I've ever been to in this area. Very patient with my children and have watched them grow. 5 stars aren't enough.
The only positive is that the dentist handles little children well. Other than that she likes to have every single cavity viewed by the parent with a lecture about how you shouldn’t feed your child sweets. When you tell her they do not eat candy like that she tells you chips are bad. Although my household agrees, we do not make a dentist salary and most folks are just trying to feed their children what they can. She drilled too much into one side of my teenagers mouth and hurt her, became frustrated because she couldn’t tell she was in pain ? Dentist will scorn you for not keeping appointments but has no problem rescheduling a set appointment for months later if she needs a good ole vacation …..
I have had my teeth cleaned and some cavities filled here a few times and have not had any outstanding issues or bad experiences. I would rate 5 stars but it is a dentist's office, hard to excite me about that one. I would recommend their services. Update 2023 I stopped using them years ago because they wanted to charge me 150 for a deep cleaning on each visit. I ended up moving to another dentist office in Belton, and they took care of everything all covered under my insurance. It always pays to get a second opinion.
