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.

He is thorough and explains options in understandable ways. He offers a caring attitude with excellent skills.

I trust Dr Starkey completely and love his staff. Mary is a sweetheart and Melissa (his asst) is wonderful. Dr Starkey lets you be part of the decision making when deciding what’s to be done. He gives you all the alternatives, the pros and cons of each, and then works with you about which is best suited for your mouth. He actually cares! We could use more like him in every medical field!

DR. STARKEY AND HIS TEAM ARE THE BEST STAFF I'VE EVER HAD THE PLEASURE OF WORKING WITH. I'VE HAD TERRIBLE EXPERIENCES AT OTHER DENTAL OFFICE BUT DR STARKEY AND HIS STAFF ARE PATIENT FOCUSED. THEIR FIRST CONCERN IS TO BE SURE YOU ARE COMFORTABLE. I HAVE BEEN A PATIENT OF HIS (OFF AND ON) FOR OVER 30 YEARS. I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM TO MY FAMILY AND FREINDS

About Me

care philosophy

Like many of his patients I dreaded going to the dentist when I was a kid. I would look at the calendar and see the weeks too quickly come to the appointment day.
