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 dental professional in the area
I went to see Dr. McKenzie today and as always was very happy with the outcome. I found Dr. McKenzie about 10 years ago and have been going to him ever since. In the past I have seen many different dentists and not been pleased with any of them. They always seem to want to do whatever costs the most whether it was in the patients interest or not. Dr. McKenzie looks at the situation for the best possible results without recommending work to be done that may not solve the problem but make him a lot of money. His attention is completely professional. Everyone in the office is very helpful and it is pleasant to go there. I would highly recommend him to everyone!

Dr Mckenzie
We just absolutely love. Doctor McKenzie and his staff. I spoke to Doctor McKenzie about seeing my mother who is 88 years old and I voice my concerns i let him know that my mom had issues with her BP rising when at the dentist, he just told me to bring her and he would take care of her. On the day of the procedure my mom was nervous but Dr Mckenzie and Jennifer assured he she was in good hands and that she would be ok. Dr Mckenzie is very attentive to his patients he called her on Saturday to see how she was doing. I love that about him. I would recommend him over and over again. Thank you for taking care of my mom.

Excellent!
I had an opportunity to see Dr. McKenzie last year on an emergency basis when I had a severe abscess in an implant area. He quickly diagnosed the problem and performed an emergency surgery with excellent results. I had an emergency problem again this year (acute pain) just before Thanksgiving. After calling the office around 9:00, they were able to squeeze me in at 10:30 the same day! He conducted an extensive evaluation and referred me to a root canal specialist (his office called the specialist on my behalf). Bottom line, I cannot say enough good things about this doctor and I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Great Appointment and Follow-up
Dr. McKenzie and his staff were professional and friendly through out the appointment and follow-up. He is very knowledgeable and took the time to listen to all my dental concerns and and address all issues. Dr. McKenzie and his staff did not rush through any part of the process. He thoroughly explained and demonstrated the follow on maintenance I need to preform prior to my next appointment.

Received implants
Dr. McKenzie is an excellent choice for receiving implants. He explained everything step by step. I could not have found a better Dr. to work with and now I have beautiful teeth. Definitely consider Dr. McKenzie if you need implants.

Skip the corporate chains and go here
It's been about a year since Dr. McKenzie performed my gap reduction surgery. The procedure was relatively painless and the recovery was quick, under a week and I barely needed the pain killers. My teeth have felt much more healthy without the 'shifting' feeling I used to have in my lower teeth after eating certain foods. The Dr. and staff are very friendly and honest, and haven't tried to nickel and dime me like all the chains I've been to around here did. Stay away from the chain dentists if you need perio work, and go straight here. I wish I did 10 years ago.

It's a wrap and two implants completed today.
Today the McKenzie Center placed two implants. They are beautiful! Fit perfectly and now my confidence and smile are back! Without the implants the skin at my mouth was sagging. Their plan was laid out and, with passion, executed flawlessly. Dr McKenzie and Jennifer are very detail oriented so aesthetics was addressed. Thank you McKenzie Center you have kept me feeling confident as I face the world. Keep Smiling! I am no stranger to implanted teeth and it is so evident that the McKenzie Center is keeping cutting edge technology. Without hesitation, I would steer periodontal patient to seek out the best and that has shown itself to be The McKenzie Center.With Gratitude.

Let me tell you about my 1st. visit to Dr. McKenzie office. I was and am very impressed with the service I got. They were on time. Very friendly , you feel very relaxed. Explains the different options for what you need. Doesn't push you into anything you don't want. Believe me I was very nervous and they made me feel relaxed . they treat you like a friend instead of a patient. Recommend Highly. You won't be disappointed.

Absolutely! My experience was Top Shelf
I winter in Florida and my dentist from Michigan referred me to Dr McKenzie due to some upcoming surgery for knee replacement in April. He took control of the issue and even had me get a second opinion from another dentist. Dr McKenzie performed oral surgery on my gum and it is healing great. From receptionist to dental assistant to the Dr McKenzie , 5 star!

many years with Dr. McKenzie
It was about 1995 that my husband and I were in need of periodontal care. Dr. McKenzie took excellent care of us, and taught us the proper way to care for our teeth. He has been helping keep miy mouth healthy since then. I highly recommend him and his staff.

Kind and compassionate
Dr. McKenzie and his staff are wonderful. I had an issue with one tooth that my regular dentist would not fix. I came to Dr. McKenzie for help and he took care of the problem immediately. I have never written a review before but he so impressed me as a very knowledgeable and kind doctor. Thank you.

Great dentistry
Dr. McKenzie and his office staff provide excellent patient care. They are helpful, attentive, and professional. I drove an hour to the this office for gum surgery because it seemed so much better than any office close to me. I felt like they went above and beyond to help me. It was well worth the drive. Would highly recommend this team!

So grateful
First of all, I would like to take a moment and thank you so much. I'm very happy that my friend recommended you. I was impressed by your mannerism, kindness and professionalism. Of all the dentists I've seen, not one, had ever mentioned that I had bone loss in my lower jaw. Ironically, Dr. McKenzie noticed it right away and was able to save my teeth. I'm am so so grateful, thank you again Dr. McKenzie.

Top Doc and staff
Several years ago, I had an extraction done. I was referred to Dr. McKenzie by another dental practice. Dr. McKenzie showed me the x-rays and explained the reason for the surgery. I had no issues post op and am now a regular in the office for cleanings. I am so pleased with the office staff and doctor; my wife and son are now patients.
