Fantastic experience: Staff is so friendly and thorough. They explain every little thing. My 1st time going and I lucked out
Fantastic experience: My husband and I have been going to Dr. Harris well over 12+ years. The entire staff has been exceptional and so very caring and friendly. Gentle in all procedures and wonderful follow up. True professionals!
Negative experience: They frequently close office and don’t care the patients at all. I didn’t have routine dental cleaning during Covid. When I visited their office, the nurse refused to clean my teeth and recommended me to a Periodic Specialist instead, which cost me $150 for the visit only and asked for over $3000 for further treatment. Later on, I went to a dental office in New Jersey and got deep cleaning for only $600. My second appointment was canceled one day before for the reason that no hygienist on duty. When I tried to reschedule, the office has been always closed. I am switching to another office at the moment. So frustrating!
Fantastic experience: Very friendly and professional staff. The dental hygienist was very thorough with my cleaning.
Fantastic experience: Great visit as always. Very happy with their service
Fantastic experience: Dr. Harris has been our family dentist for a few years now and we highly recommend him!
