Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Although dentists are not my favorite people, Dr. Bell and his staff make my visit pleasant and I feel fairly relaxed with pulling my teeth. Dr. Bell always explains everything about the procedure pretty thoroughly. If you need teeth pulled, I recommend him 100%??

Excellent dentist and staff. They are just amazing to work with. The implant coordinator, Breanna was so awesome to work with, she answered all my questions and was very prompt at answering emails as well. Dr. Bell makes you feel completely at ease and is just a pleasant person overall. His front office staff are genuinely caring and helpful. I enjoyed the entire process. Would HIGHLY recommend them!
