This place is absolutely amazing! everyone is warm and friendly. if you are needing dental hygiene or assistant work this is the place to go! They truly care about the people they employ and are courteous! The highlight of my visit was the sweetest dog in the whole world that greeted me at the door! Red is such a sweet pup! I vote that there should be emotional support dogs at any place that you go! Sure helps somebody with general anxiety!
