Felt cared about. Dr. Hart took his time in explaining my tooth situation, which made me feel confident he knew what he was doing, and that he cared about me as a person.

It was a great first visit. I hadn't been to the dentist in a while and they could definitely tell. But they didn't shame me for it like I have seen in the past. They seem friendly and want to make the visit as quick and painless as possible.
