Lini O. ★★★★★ I have been meaning to write a review for months now about how wonderful this doctor and staff is! A few months ago, my not- quite-2 year old son, had an accident and hit his front tooth which turned into an emergency and needed to be seen after hours. I have worked in the dental field for almost 10 years, several in pediatrics, so I fortunately knew what I was looking at and the severity of our situation. I called in a panic and Dr. Nickel himself answered and met me and my son right away at the office. His assistant, Candace came back to the office, I'm sure they were both ready to go home, but they put my son's needs above their own, took their time, and made the whole process as smooth as it could have gone. They called the following day to check up on my son too! Highly recommend this practice!Response from the ownerThank you! We love having you guys as part of our dental family! Chelsea D. ★★★★★ Candace is AMAZING! She was so sweet and patient with my son during his first dentist appointment. She even sent him a thank you card after the appointment with a dinosaur sticker.Response from the ownerThank you Rachael P. ★★★★★ My two boys (4 and 2.5 years) had the BEST experience getting their teeth cleaned.

We had never been here before but they fit him in that day, and quickly. From the initial phone call with the receptionist, our experience only heightened with gratitude. After being so kindly greeted and checked in, the hygenist then greeted us, just as nicely, and proceeded with x-rays and a cleaning. As if that weren't enough, Dr. Nickel was just as nice. He explained everything perfectly and has my son on the road to recovery. The compassion and knowledge this staff exhibited can't be matched! When my son and I got in the car to leave, he said, Mom- I only wanna go there from now on.

Staff are knowledgeable and are reasonable and helpful with their approach and advice.js_loader
