Late review.... but still valid. They used to be my personal dentist, and then my family dentist for years. But I moved around a lot so sometimes it was years between appointments. I moved again about 3 years ago and needed 4 sets of recent x-rays that were done just prior to moving. Which technically are my property. I own them. But they refused to send them? Remember this is after knowing them for 20 years? I just thought that the character display would be well appreciated by some.

Dr. Gibbs is an amazing dentist. If you want a dentist who's friendly, caring, and exceptional at their job - I highly recommend him. Been going to Dr. Gibbs for almost two years and I honestly haven't had one bad experience with him. I'm currently fixing my smile, along with my son. Best decision ever when it comes to my teeth. I'm so happy I found him.

Booked over the phone for a examination and cleaning. When I got in I was informed otherwise, that the one hour window was not enough time for cleaning and I had to book a follow up appointment for it. Horrible how I was told different things at different times and everything cannot be done at once. Why am I expected to take multiple days off work for the most ordinary appointments??? Then was told Well do as much as we can within the hour, Great standard of service. :/
Teeth cleaning experience was painful, my gum could not stop bleeding. The receptionist has no idea about the bills
