Fantastic experience: This is one of the best visits to any Dentist office by Far. Everyone was so kind and nice and they seemed to answer all my questions before I even asked. I had a tooth emergency and Bad Axe Family Dentistry got me in within one week. When most places were scheduling out 2 months. Definetley going back!
Going to hold you to that; definitely come on back! Looking forward to seeing you again ! - Dr Bills
Fantastic experience: I recently had to have my partial built up to fit my job better. Dr Bill's explained everything and possibly I could have been without my partial for 2 weeks but they said they would try to put a rush on it and guess what! The partial was in a pinch over a week! Absolutely the Dr Bills & the staff from Jaylyn, Julie, Sydney, Treisa, and Jennifer. I'm sure they will make you comfortable and right at home.
Sue - you and Bill are so easy to work with, and I feel lucky to have you both as patients. - Dr Bills
Fantastic experience: Dr. Bills and his staff are great! I was having a problem. It was fixed right away. I recommend going to Dr. Bills for all your dental needs.
Very nice of you to say so! BUT, I would argue that we provide exactly the kind of service everyone should expect from their dentist! - DR Bills
Fantastic experience: I love Dr. Bills and his staff!! They’re all so friendly and kind! I’m so glad I found them!!
We are happy to have you join us! Serving friendly people like you makes our work day a breeze! Well...maybe not a breeze, but it surely brightens our day when we get to work with great people ! -Dr Bills
Fantastic experience: Once again the service was exceptional. No wait time even though I got there earlier
Glad you had a good experience in our office. We hope to keep you coming back to visit us for many years to come! - Dr Bills
Fantastic experience: Always the best. Growin up I knew a lot of kids were scared of going to the dentist, but I was always excited because of the care I’d receive every time. I’ve been going here longer than I can remember and I always appreciate them :).
Thank you for the glowing review! There is a good reason that you do not remember your first visit to our office - you were only 4 years old! But I remember that visit and you have always been a great patient, right from the start! -Dr Bills
Fantastic experience: Perfect application of local anesthesia. I never felt a thing.
While we can not promise to be "perfect" all the time, we will always do what we can to make your experience as comfortable as possible ! Thank you for the positive feedback ! - Dr Bills
Fantastic experience: Dentist is a real gentleman. Great with his patients. After my wife’s procedure he took the time out of his busy day to make sure my wife got in the car ok. Made sure she didn’t hit her head getting in the car. That’s the kinda guy I want in my corner.
A couple hundred reviews and this may be the first time I've been accused of being a gentleman! I'm glad you and your family have chosen to place your trust in us. Happy to take care of you from the beginning of the appointment all the way to the very end! Where I come from we simply call that service! - Dr Bills
