Patient Services
The casual atmosphere in our office helps even nervous patients relax. You’ll enjoy our modern, comfortable chairs in the operatories, with cable television or radio for your viewing and listening pleasure.
When you’re in the dental chair, you will not see our tools of the trade in front of you; instead, a panoramic lake view greets your eyes. Patients tell us that the stresses of the day seem to melt away as they watch wildlife and waterfowl or see a bald eagle circling in the sky.
Enjoy our spacious, lodge-like reception area, and if you need to accomplish some lap-top computer work while waiting for your patient, we have a wireless network you can join.
