The office staff is great, coordinators are also great and very helpful. My kids both were seen last month and the ladies who did their cleanings were so sweet and made my kids super comfortable, especially my son who has had some dental anxiety. However I feel the pediatric dentist there should have better bedside manner especially working with children. She wasn’t very friendly and pushed a lot of things that I felt were about money to her. This is why I am giving three stars.

I wish I had a better explanation of my procedure. The procedure they did was NOT what it was explained to me in my initial appointment. Everyone was in a hurry and I feel like patients don’t get the care and time we deserve. Plus when they called me to make my payment the girl didn’t even know what she was talking about she was telling me that a referral was done to extract some wisdom that I don’t have

Remi was awesome!!!! She made me feel very safe and comfortable. Remi is very professional and cares about her patients issues. I’m glad she was there to help me and support me through my visit. Thank you Remi! YOU ROCK!!!!

I had a wonderful experience at Capital Dental Group. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and cared for. The entire team was kind, supportive, and professional, which immediately put me at ease. A special thank you to the Dentist and her amazing team for taking such great care of me. They took the time to explain everything, answered my questions, and made sure I was comfortable throughout my visit. It's not always easy going to the dentist, but the staff at Capital Dental Group made the experience a positive one. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for compassionate, high-quality dental care in Bakersfield!

My experience, from my first phone call for an appointment, with this marvelous group of people has been multifacetedly terrific! Warm welcome, comfortable waiting area, brief wait, friendly initial care… I was thoroughly blessed, AND impressed, to receive a concise education from Dr. Casteen regarding the procedure I’m planning to proceed with. Next, I was introduced to darling, AND informative, Miss Krystal🥰 She aligned me with the financial details. What an incredible first appointment! Next visit, a repeat of wonderment with Dr. Sharobiem, Andrew, and assistant, whose name I did not learn. 😕 Again, I leave my appointment encouraged that we’ll get this tackled. I truly count my blessings to have this fabulous Capital Dental Group here locally for dental health care.🙌

From the moment I walked in, every member of the team was exceptional. The front desk staff, the doctor, the X-ray technician, and the hygienist who cleaned and polished my teeth were all attentive, professional, and genuinely present throughout my visit. They respected my time by working efficiently without ever making me feel rushed. Everyone took the time to explain each step, answer my questions, and ensure I was comfortable. It was such a positive experience!

After recently moving, I tried two other dental offices for both myself and my kids, but I never felt completely comfortable. Then I found Capital Dental Group in Bakersfield, and I can honestly say the experience exceeded all of my expectations. From the moment I walked in, every member of the staff was so kind, welcoming, and friendly. They made me feel like more than just another patient and immediately put me at ease. A special thank you to Jasmin, Liz, and Jess, they are incredibly sweet, compassionate, and truly passionate about what they do. Their kindness and genuine care made such a positive impression on me. The dentist was just as amazing. He was so kind, gentle, and treated me like I was family. He constantly checked on me throughout my appointment to make sure I was comfortable and not in pain, and he took the time to explain everything in a way that made me feel at ease. It’s rare to find a provider who combines professionalism with such genuine compassion, and it truly meant so much to me. The office itself is beautiful, spacious, and very well organized. It’s clear they’re equipped to care for many patients while still making every person feel seen and cared for. Finding a dental office you can trust isn’t always easy, especially after moving to a new area, but I’m so grateful I found Capital Dental Group. I finally feel like I’ve found a dental home for my family. I’ll definitely be bringing my kids back and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring, professional, and welcoming dental team. Thank you all for making what is usually a stressful experience feel so easy and comforting. You have gained a lifelong patient!

Walking in, I was terrified, nervous, and had a million questions. Dr. Huh and the team changed that completely. They showed incredible patience, care, and reassurance. Not once did I feel pressured; they even offered to reschedule If I still wasn’t ready. They treat you like a real person, not a file number. Patient care comes first! I highly recommend Dr. Huh and Thank you too, Ashley! You were very kind!

I had two procedures with Dr. Grigori at Fresno Oral Surgery. The staff is professional and very efficient! The office is clean and has welcoming vibes. From the moment I arrived there – everyone showed me such patience and kindness. I was very comfortable and at ease. I had a tooth extraction, bone graft, and an implant procedure. I did not feel any pain…it seemed to go by quickly as well. The doctor and her staff…Judith and Alissa kept asking how I was doing and giving words of encouragement. They also provided after care instructions and sent pre surgery videos on what to do. They made a scary experience into a comfortable and easy process. If you are looking for quality care for mouth surgery look no further.

Dr K and his entire staff go above and beyond to provide an excellent service to their patients. They are professional, personable and make their patients feel extremely comfortable and at ease. Thank you to the entire team for making my experience a very positive one! I highly recommend…

My daughter had all 4 wisdom teeth removed under IV sedation with Dr. Curiel. From the very first appointment (the consult) we knew this is where we wanted to go. Dr. Curiel was confident and knowledgeable with her case. The morning of the procedure every person was kind and helpful. She was very anxious and worried about the IV placement. They offered numbing cream to help take some of the pain away with placement. They were calm and walked her through each step. I was able to stay until they had her ready to go and the entire procedure was over within 45 minutes. Her recovery has been great so far. Soreness but no major pain which I am grateful for. Dr. Curiel himself even called to check on her the evening of the procedure which I thought just goes to show how they run things here. I highly recommend Dr. Curiel and the Fresno office!!

Dr. K and his team are truly amazing! From the second you walk in and possibly wheeling you out (IYKYK) , his team truly cares for their patients! I remember being nervous during my consultation (don’t judge, there’s previous trauma from other dental places lol ) but his humor really helped relax the environment! After that I went in for two extractions and then an implant and his team provide clear instructions on how to care for it and followed up with a text message and a video on how to care for it. I can’t remember the tooth extraction process , but recovery was smooth! However, the implant, I remember! Was wide awake for that! But it went really fast as well! Dr. K prepared me for what to expect when he was drilling and his team asked how I was feeling the whole time. I truly appreciated both! I would recommend going here and seeing Dr. K!

Had an amazing experience! My daughter was super nervous about the surgery the young lady that first greeted us and took care of all the pre surgery procedures was absolutely the sweetest wish I would’ve remembered her name. She made my daughter feel at ease and even let my daughter hold her hand while the anesthesia kicked in! Thank you she was absolutely amazing! The Dr did an amazing job my daughter is in very little pain and is recovering very well! Everyone was super nice and professional the entire process went smoothly! Definitely recommend!

Great staff and a wonderful experience! The office is very modern, clean, and welcoming. The doctor was extremely friendly and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. I felt very well taken care of and at ease before going under. I truly appreciated how attentive and caring everyone was. I would definitely recommend this office to my family and friends!

Dr. Nadeem, Dr. Diego, Maiadah (da), and Ivan have been great throughout both my visits so far. Ivan is very calming and compassionate so is Maiadah. Dr Nadeem and Dr. Diego both took the time to explain everything throughly until I had no questions left. I removed my wisdom teeth and coming again for more work. I recieved good treatment and took necessary precautions for my pregnancy. So far great experience!

First time I visit this new Dentist they made my appointment at 12:30 I get there early I wait till 12:45 for them to call me. Once I’m seated waiting for dentist 12:50 they let me know oh we all have to go to lunch at 1:00 everyone has to go; would you like to wait for us to come back?. I was so annoyed first off why schedule someone at 12:30 if you know you will not be able to see them that time. I drove 45 mins for this appointment that I made sure to be on time for and if I get told I can get seen at 12:30 I expect it to be that time. I also brought my kids and my mom was waiting in the car with them so it’s just so upsetting and very unprofessional. The office is nice but it’s just not it because of my first experience in this office.

Maiadah, and Doctor Nadeem were very fast and nice when I hot my wisdom teeth removed. They assisted me very kindly and provided easy instructions for after care. I came back after 2 weeks for a follow up and they were amazing and very helpful.

If I could leave 0 stars I would Extremely disappointed with how my husband was treated. He expressed his fear and anxiety, yet they left a tray directly in front of him with tools, blood, and teeth. They also did not properly check that he was fully numb before trying to work on the other side of his mouth—a side he specifically said he did NOT want worked on today. He felt ignored, unheard, and completely uncomfortable. Patients deserve to feel safe and have their concerns respected. Very unorganized and disappointing experience.

My recommendations short wait time. X-rays, you see the dentist the explains the procedure. I healed very well.

Had my wisdom teeth extracted here. My experience here was amazing. Doctors did well on my extraction and followed up with me after 2 weeks. The staff here is also very friendly and welcoming!

I usually try not to leave negative reviews, however, I feel that my experience with this office should be considered in order to provide better service. I am sad to say that I had a very disappointing experience at Haraz Dental Group. I was referred by my primary dentist for a root canal evaluation and arrived on time for my 11:50 a.m. appointment. I was greeted by very kind receptionists. During check-in, I simply asked whether they could use the X-rays my primary dentist had taken the week before. I was told it depended on several factors and was asked to have the images emailed over, which I did immediately.The wait time from check in to the chair wasn't very long. Once inside, a very lovely lady did the first images on me. Up to that point, everything seemed fine. After waiting over an hour to see the doctor, I overheard the assistant telling the doctor that I "didn't want to do X-rays again" as soon as he walked in. That was never what I said, so I clarified that I had only asked whether my existing X-rays could be used. The doctor explained a few things, ordered new images, and told me they would be reviewed shortly. I then waited for over another hour with no updates. When an assistant finally came in, I asked what we were waiting for. She explained that the doctor was busy and that she would have another doctor see me. The second doctor seemed hesitant because the first doctor had already started my visit. When the assistant returned and said they would actually need additional imaging to obtain insurance pre-authorization. She also mentioned that the first doctor was busy and that the second doctor was "giving them a headache," so my appointment would only be for imaging. No evaluation would be done today, which is why I came in the first place. When I asked if this was typical for a visit that had already lasted three and a half hours, I was told they were sorry but that they had a busy day. The biggest issue wasn't just the wait—it was the lack of communication. I spent 3.5 hours at the office only to be told something that could have been explained within the first few minutes of my appointment. Patients understand that delays happen, but clear communication and respect for their time are essential. Unfortunately, this experience fell far below those expectations.

I had an amazing experience at this dental practice today! The entire team was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and professional from start to finish. The office itself is spotless and exceptionally clean, which made me feel comfortable right away. On top of the great care, they offer very reasonable options for their services without any high-pressure sales. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch, affordable dental care!

It's been a while since I've been able to go to the dentist, so I was nervous. But from the moment I walked in until checking out, I was treated with kindness and everything was explained thoroughly. Angie was also amazing with my deep cleaning, didn't feel a thing. Definitely recommending to family and friends, you can tell everyone here cares.

I had a really great experience here. From the moment I walked in for my routine cleaning and exam, everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The front desk staff got me checked in quickly, and the dental hygienist explained what they were doing throughout the cleaning, which helped me feel comfortable and informed. Everyone was patient, answered my questions, and never made me feel rushed. The dentist, hygienist, and the lady that took my x-rays (not sure of title) were kind, knowledgeable, and very thorough. They reviewed my X-rays, completed a detailed exam, and pointed out a few things to keep an eye on while reassuring me that my overall dental health looked good. I appreciated how clearly everything was explained and that they took the time to discuss my options without any pressure. The office was also clean and well organized, which added to the positive experience. I really appreciated the level of care and attention I received during my visit. It’s clear that the entire team genuinely cares about their patients. They checked in with me throughout the appointment to make sure I was comfortable and addressed any concerns I had. I would absolutely recommend this office to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dentist in Canyon Crest. Thank you to the whole team for making my visit such a positive one!

I can’t thank Canyon Crest Dental enough for how easy and productive my visit was. Everything about my experience was great, from the atmosphere to their excellent service! I’d like to personally give a shoutout and air five to Dr. Andy and Monica for their exceptional skill level and efficiency – no one better! Jennifer made the business stuff easy and quick, just my style! I will definitely recommend this establishment to anyone looking to put their dental health in the hands of consummate professionals!

I’ve been going here for about 8 years now. They’re pricey, but they do great work. They work with my schedule, benefits, and helped me when I was In grad school (I was uninsured at the time). I’ve had my wisdom teeth removed here. I am having an implant placed currently, do to the mistakes make by western dental. I would definitely recommend. .

The best experience!! I didn’t feel anything I was nice and numb. It was very quick and they even gave me a blanket which I love because I’m always cold. The staff was so warm and welcoming and made sure I felt comfortable the entire time.

The team here is very kind and professional, they work hard and they also have good technology. Because of their high tech technology they were able to spot a lot of cavities my previous dentist was unaware about. Again, very kind and professional. I would highly recommend Smile Makeovers as your next dentist if you’re considering.

I love this office! The staff is always friendly, and the Airflow cleaning makes my teeth feel amazing. My teeth have never felt this clean and smooth. I highly recommend this office!

I always have a great experience with Marina the dental hygienist. She is very detailed tskes her time to explain what she is going to do. She is very respectful on personal choices for a patient..such as for me no flouride. She takes her time and is very thorough. I appreciate her kind manner towards patients

Merina is an absolute sweetheart and she knows what she’s doing as a hygenist. Very professional and takes care of you sincerely. And Dr Cho is great and what she does and takes her time with you. Been coming here for years and very pleased! Highly recommend!

The staff were very welcoming and upbeat. Upon entering the office it was very clean and we were greeted with smiles. Our appointment was at 10:30 and we were called back at 10:40 which was definitely a plus. I have to say, one of the best experiences we have had. Great job team Sweet Tooth, keep up the good work.

This was our first visit with our 14 month old. I was so pleased with how kid friendly it was. It was clean, the staff was amazing. They were so friendly and helpful. The experience with the dr was a super positive one. He was so good with the baby. He was quick, explained everything clearly and asked if I had any questions. She also got to choose a treasure when we were leaving. I would give more stars if I could.

I have been bringing my daughter to Sweet Tooth Family Dentistry since she was 2 they are very easy to book. They offer late appointments and are thourough when explaining procedures. They are very kid friendly staff is nice and dentist are great as well I highly recommend them !

We had such a great experience at Sweet Tooth Family Dentistry! Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The doctor explained everything clearly and made us feel comfortable. The children’s dentist was wonderful with my kids, and the receptionist was so thoughtful—she even offered to play a movie my son wanted while we waited for his sister. That extra kindness meant a lot. Such a caring, family-friendly office, and I highly recommend them!

First bust was great I scheduled Two appointments for my children one is 2 and the other is 5 the check up clean up , X-rays and consultation was less than 50 Minutes for BOTH !!!! Excellent customer service and the care was phenomenal we’re scheduled back in September for their fills and sealants

My kids and I love this place. Staffs are professional, welcoming, and so helpful. The dentists and assistants are super patient and took their time to make sure my kids feel safe and secure before moving on to the next steps. All staffs members always make sure all accommodations are attended to and provided very thorough information about any service that needs to be done.

They were great – very informative to me about the options I had in regards to my 1 year olds oral ties. Saw us very quickly once we arrived for our appointment. Will definitely continue bringing my child here!

I never have to wait long, and every hygienist I’ve had, has been gentle and communicated well on my dental needs and plan. My last cleaning was with Amanda and I will request her every time.All dentists are just as thorough. They go over your health history and allergies, always check your blood pressure. It’s a great place.

Impressed! First impressions of a clean welcoming office. Next was the customer service, friendly and attentive staff. When it came to the exam, I can say was the first time Iv had my teeth assessed this thoroughly. The imagery was next level, as well as the doctors assessment of my teeth. I will be moving my family over and recommending others. Awesome experience!

I was referred to Doctor Xavier Gutierrez’ Dental office by a close friend of mine, who spoke very highly of Dr. Gutierrez and his staff. After my visit there I understood why. Dr. Gutierrez and his staff were so attentive and understanding of my past dental experiences. Claire took great care of me and made me feel like we were old friends. I have never experienced this type of patient care in my entire life of 70 years and am looking forward to my next visit. Big thanks to Andy Hill for referring me.

I really love the facility and staff here at Fresno Dental Pro. The office is very clean has modern equipment that reassures I’m being evaluated using up to date technology and methodologies. The evaluation I had today was very thorough and well explained by my dentist. I really appreciate the care and the great conversations with the staff. My family and I look forward to future appointments and will be recommending our friends and family.

Everyone there was super kind and welcoming, they all made me feel very Comfortable. I was assigned Dr. Prakash, who was very kind and helped me figure out how to do better care for my teeth. They had a lovely environment, super clean and very professional.

Service ALWAs timely and professional. Staf very competent. I have been receiving my dental call there for almost 40 years. First with Dr Moss Senior and now his son! I’ll never switch!!

I had such an amazing experience as a first-time patient! From the moment I walked in, the entire team was incredibly welcoming and positive. They took the time to explain everything in detail, which really helped ease my nerves. I’ve had some awful experiences with dentists in the past, but this office completely changed that for me. Their level of care and attention was truly extraordinary. They genuinely listened and catered to my concerns, making sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. If you’re looking for a dentist with extraordinary customer service and a compassionate approach, I can’t recommend Dr Gutierrez enough!

I had a wonderful experience today at Willow Dental. I’m so grateful they were able to work me in on such short notice during an emergency. From the moment I arrived, the staff was kind, compassionate, and professional, making a stressful situation so much easier. Thank you to everyone at Willow Dental and Dr Hatmakerfor your exceptional care and for treating me with such kindness. I truly appreciate all that you did for me today!

Dr. Anderson at Willow Dental is an absolute joy to have as a dentist . He is professional, thorough, painless, and extremely personable. I have been in his care for many years, and have never had a complaint. He has pulled teeth, created dentures, done implants…all in a perfect manner. He is fast, he is on time, and he values his patients. I can't say enough about him and his staff.

Went to Willow Dental for more than a decade. Had minor issues throughout—mainly with office personnel but now the office personnel is the best they’ve had. As for dental work: good at best for basic cleanings. If you have any dental issues, beware. The dental staff has challenges communicating, being empathetic and completing dental work with ease. I continued going for the convenience of location. Won’t be returning after I had to go in 5-6 times for one crown! My new dentist says the dental work done for this crown is awkward so I question their expertise.

I had an amazing experience at Willow Dental; they are truly excellent professionals. Dr. Tapia was finally able to provide a solution to my dental pain after I had visited more than 10 different doctors, including specialists, and none of them could help me. Dr. Tapia made me feel incredibly comfortable with his detailed explanation during the exam and the potential solutions he proposed. Also, his assistant was super friendly and attentive, which made a huge difference. I recommend them 10/10! Dr. Tapia, if you’re reading this, God bless you—you truly helped me! Highly recommended!

This place is my first experience at the dentist as an adult on my own and they’ve been very welcoming. Procedures are explained to you in detail and I’ve learned a good deal about my teeth. The staff is very friendly plus their lobby has a lot of complimentary items like water and tea. They even gave me a welcome bag on my first visit with them!

Best dentist I’ve ever been to! I will definitely be going back for all of my needs. I was very grateful how they handled dental insurance. 👍

Dr. Anderson is the best dentist I’ve ever had and I’m old! My crown fell out and he booked me as his last patient and stayed later to fix it! His staff is also very kind and professional. It is worth traveling >1.5 hours to see him!

First let me say I have always hated the dentist. But this place made me feel comfortable. The whole staff was friendly and understanding of my issues. The dentist was super patient with me and quick with the work. I already have been referring people and would definitely go back for my teeth issues.

I had a great experience at Dr. Donan’s office today. Dr. Donan and his entire staff were incredibly polite, professional, and made me feel comfortable throughout my appointment. I had several fillings done, and they explained everything clearly while making the procedure as smooth and painless as possible. Everyone was friendly, helpful, and genuinely cared about making sure I was comfortable. I really appreciate the excellent care I received and would highly recommend Dr. Donan and his team to anyone looking for a great dentist!

Very fast same day emergency service for a chipped front tooth! While he was doing his exam he noticed an old filling that needed attention and had me in and out in no time at all! Great professional service ! No pain ! I wish i could give extra stars due to the fact this was my first visit and it was a same day service ⭐️

I’m extremely pleased with the treatment I received. The staff was welcoming, attentive, and highly professional. Everything was explained clearly, and the procedure was done with great care. The results look fantastic, and I couldn’t be happier. I would definitely recommend this clinic to friends and family.

Dr. Donan is the best dentist I’ve ever been to. He and his team made me, my kids, and especially my wife feel welcome, comfortable, and most of all safe. A beautiful, bright, and remarkably clean office led by Kayla and Maria put you at ease and let you know your care and comfort are top of mind. Many thanks and we'll be coming here as long as we live in the Valley.

I had a great experience with Dr. Donan. He was very professional, caring, and took the time to make sure my procedure came out perfect. He explained everything clearly, made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process, and truly paid attention to every detail. I really appreciated his patience and dedication to providing excellent care. Highly recommend

Exceptional Dental Service in Fresno! 100% Recommended! Since I moved to Fresno in 2012, I had some negative experiences with dental crowns at a well-known chain, which unfortunately I now have to replace. In my search for a better option, I found this dental office on Google and the visit was truly fantastic. Dr. Guillermo Donan is excellent: very attentive, professional, and shows a great commitment to quality. Likewise, all his staff is unbeatable. What impressed me most was the use of advanced technology and transparency: • Detailed Diagnosis: They use photographs to clearly show the patient the state of their teeth. • Cutting-edge Treatments: For procedures like crown placement, they use 3D imaging and technology, which ensures precision. • Total Transparency: The team takes the time to explain every step of the treatment and the associated costs in detail, which generates great trust. I 100% recommend this dental service to anyone in Fresno looking for high-quality care, professionalism, and exceptional treatment. It's a relief to have found such a dedicated team.

The workflow of all staff are fast, on time and nice. They have clean work area and organized and coordinated with one another. Definitely recommend to our colleagues. Keep it up!

My experience at this dental clinic was one of the best I have ever had. From the moment I walked in, I felt comfortable and welcomed. The clinic is exceptionally clean, well-organized, and has a calm, professional atmosphere that immediately makes patients feel at ease. Dr. Mohammed Al-Khazein, who treated me, is highly skilled, professional, and knowledgeable. He is patient, respectful, and takes the time to explain every step of the treatment before beginning, which gave me complete confidence and peace of mind throughout the entire process. The treatment was remarkably comfortable, with minimal discomfort, and the final results exceeded all of my expectations. I would also like to recognize the entire clinic staff for their kindness, professionalism, and genuine care. Their attention to every detail and commitment to making patients feel comfortable truly sets this clinic apart. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for outstanding dental care, and I especially recommend requesting Dr. Mohammed Al-Khuzain. His expertise, professionalism, and dedication to his patients are truly exceptional. My sincere thanks and appreciation to Dr. Al-Khuzain and the entire team for providing such an outstanding level of care and service. I wish them continued success and excellence.

I love how they can get you in quickly especially for emergencies. They're opened on Saturdays which is really convenient. I see the dentist who is a female. She is kind and informative and I love how they inform me of how long the process takes so I know exactly how long the wait is and what to expect. They also do same day final restoration so that definitely saves me a trip from coming back. So far everything has been great. Highly recommend.

I received a bill from your office stating that I owe $71.00. I called your office to ask why I was receiving this bill, and I was told that the funds were not collected from my me back in 2024. I was also told that I need to come into the office so everything can be explained to me. I do not believe it is necessary for me to come in. You should be able to explain this to me directly. My question is: Why did it take nearly two years to send me a bill for $71.00? I wanted to know why this amount was not collected or billed at the time and why I am only being notified now.

My family and I have been patients at Alluvial Dental for about 15+ years and hands down the best care we have had. My concerns are addressed promptly and before I use to have extreme anxiety just going to the dentist, and I am no longer dreading the visits or cancelling like in my past. Staff environment is great and I have recommended them to numerous family, friends, and coworkers. Andy Parks DDS and his team are highly recommended.

Dr. Park was kind, friendly, and incredibly detail-oriented throughout the treatment, which made me feel very satisfied with the overall experience. What I especially appreciated was that they were able to make the crown in-house using the Insight system, so I could complete treatment for two teeth and get the crowns done all in just one day.

The X-ray girl was a bit rude and rough. The hygienist Adriana is wonderful!! Very sweet, she explains what happening and makes sure you’re not in any discomfort. The female dentist didnt seem very friendly but I also haven’t had much interaction with her yet. The Saturday young girl with dark brown hair is also very sweet. So far I’m liking this place. I’m a new patient that came from a dentist office that only cared about how much money they can take from you. So, we will see how this goes. I’ll come back and add another review once I get the full experience with the actual dentist. I am loving the hours and they are open on Saturday which is awesome with my work schedule. Now I have no excuse to not make my appointments.
