From the moment I walked in, I was met with warmth, professionalism, and a level of care that is truly unmatched.
Their customer service is exceptional—accommodating, proactive, and always making sure I feel at ease. Dr. Patti is not only efficient and knowledgeable, but she’s also one of the most empathetic, kind, and personable dentists I’ve ever met. She takes the time to explain everything, ensures I’m comfortable, and has such a gentle approach that makes each visit stress-free.
It’s such a relief to have found a dental team that makes me feel so comfortable and cared for. If you’re looking for a place where you feel truly valued as a patient, I highly recommend Proud to Smile!
