I came in to see Caroline and I had an amazing experience. She was kind and welcoming. She was also gentle, which is something I always look for in a dental hygienist. The ladies at the front were professional and welcoming. Overall, I would highly recommend going to Aspire Smiles.

I have only positive things to say about the staff and this clinic. Everything is always explained to me before, during and after and you can tell they really focus on patient care. Dr. Le has magic hands and my assistant Lo was extremely attentive during the appointment. The receptionist was also very warm and inviting - I feel like its a spa day and coming from me this should mean a lot because sadly I am no stranger to fillings and an extremely anxious and nervous patient. I love the efficiency, professionalism but most important the genuine care. You just know its the type of place that goes

I have had nothing but the best care and treatment from aspire smiles. I switched from my dentist of 25 years after my wife's recommendation. And I'm glad I did, I no longer feel judgment when my teeth are being looked at and genuinely feel comfortable the whole time. Very informative and patient staff. Dr. Cross and Dr. Weaver have been fantastic. I will continue to recommend them to anyone and everyone

Dr. Cross is amazing! Not only do my husband and I feel confident that and comfortable with her, but she has been so good with our 2 young children, who have had fillings done with her. Dr. Cross caught the need for a root canal early on, which the specialist was very impressed with. We highly recommend Dr. Cross and the entire practice!

I came in for my teeth cleaning today (a couple months overdue) with Caroline. I was really impressed with the service I received - all of the staff at the front and the hygienist were super warm and friendly! Caroline was patient, very gentle and thorough. I will definitely be returning for my check-up! Thanks!
