Most patients describe a warm, well-organized practice where staff know them by name and emergencies are handled fast. A small group report gaps in professionalism and feel the fees are steep for the area. Dr. Baker and hygienists earn consistent praise for gentle, pain-free work on cleanings and crowns. Staff explain procedures thoroughly and offer payment plans. A handful of visits end in scheduling friction or long-term cost concerns.
Staff consistently greet patients by name and explain procedures thoroughly without rush. Dr. Lanier, hygienists Haley and Casey, and office manager Abbey earn specific praise for patience with anxious and neurodivergent patients. One reviewer reported a patronizing consultation and alleged the office terminates patients who leave bad reviews, though 98% of 760 reviews are five-star. All-on-4 consultations and restorative work receive strong endorsements. Pricing is described as locally competitive. The team accommodates emergency appointments quickly. Family-friendly care, including dedicated support for neurodivergent children, sets this practice apart.
