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.

Looking for a top-notch, professional, personable and caring dentist. Dr. Puffer and his KIND-HEARTED staff are a great choice. I have been a patient for many years now, and I never dread going to see them. I look forward every visit to see such a caring staff. On personal note, I had a flood in my house on my routine cleaning and had to reschedule. I had to reschedule for a second time the following week because my son had just come home from an emergency surgery. Yesterday, I came home to find a beautiful bouquet of flowers at my door. The card was from the best dentist and his AMAZING staff. To go beyond, just a customer relationship speaks in volumes to me. I wish they allowed for ten stars!! I love ?? Dr. Puffer and his staff.

Dr. Puffer is most excellent as he's basically painless, even the numbing injections. His staff is totally helpful & friendly which shows he's a good boss.

I recently had extensive dental work done, waiting time was kept to a minimum & the staff was very accommodating.I was offered & received nitrous oxide to help alleviate my anxiety, so my appointment went well. But what was most impressive was that Dr. puffer called to check on me later that evening. If you need a dentist, he’s the one.
