Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Best around!

Treat you like family
Dr. Hargis and his team treat you like family. I absolutely recommend anyone that needs dental services to make an appointment. Susan the dental hygienist is great and gives suggestion to you about keeping your teeth and gums healthy. Years ago when I first came I told them I was a big chicken when it comes to dental. But don't be scare they are gentle and make things as pain free as possible. They said, we like chickens, come on in. :)

Great Dentist and Office Staff
I had a dental problem with pain over the holiday weekend. I called the office on Monday and spoke with Gina. Dr. Hargis was still out, but Gina saw to it that I got an antibiotic called in for my problem. Two days later, I saw Dr. Hargis. My pain was mostly gone by then, thanks to the antibiotic. He xrayed my tooth to be sure I had nothing else going on. So very thankful for Dr. Hargis and his staff for their excellent care. Special thanks to Gina!You just can’t find a better dentist or dental office employees anywhere.Thank you again.

Worth the drive
I’ve been going to Dr. Hargis for many years. Although I no longer live in the area, it is worth the drive to continue seeing Dr. Hargis for all of my dental needs. I can get in for an appointment in a timely manner, get a simple cleaning or even a root canal if needed. They are professional but maintain a friendly relationship with their patients. I highly recommend this dental office. The staff as well as the dentist are grade “A” in my book.
