“The office has extremely comfortable dental chairs, natural light coming from floor to ceiling windows to the outside and even TVs placed in the ceiling above each patient chair so you can watch TV during the procedure. Now that is what I call low stress!”

“There are not enough good words to say about this entire office. From the moment you call or walk in, they are kind, informative, and helpful. They are candid about areas to watch and improve upon, make referrals when appropriate, and do not push unnecessary procedures. I’d give more stars if I could!”

“I have been to this office a few times and I am so impressed with Dr. Metzdorf and the staff. Some dental offices push for more services, more x-rays etc, this office is not like this. The staff is friendly and helpful. The hygienist is gentle and explains what she is doing. The office is lovely and serene.”
