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.

Great Experience
Dr Peek isn't about how many patients he can see in a day. I had a consult with him and he suggested we take the conservative route before having a root canal. I appreciated his honesty and had my crown fixed first to see if that would fix my problem. It didn't and his staff were able to get me in again in a few days. Dr Peek and his assistant were GREAT! Explained to me what the process was going to be and I felt NOTHING during the procedure. Day after procedure, no pain in my tooth nor my gums/cheek. Never thought I would say this, but best experience for a root canal! Thank you Dr Peek and staff!

I would highly recommend anyone to Dr.Peek he was nice and caring and will walk you thru the process of how things will take place. I will go back to Dr.Peek if I ever need another root canal not only was he nice and caring but so was his assistant (I cannot remember her name) but she also made you feel comfortable

This was the best experience I have ever had with a root canal procedure. Dr. Peek explained everything well, he worked gently and was very particular about getting everything right and keeping everything clean. His assistant knew the procedure well and was always ready with all the correct tools. They both asked me many times if I was doing okay. I can't tell you enough good things about my experience. Absolutely Painless

The staff was awesome and Dr. Peek explained everything before, during and after the procedure. Everybody was very knowledgeable and helpful. I had 2 root canals done and had no pain with either of them. I would highly recommend them to everybody!

I am very happy with the treatment I received by Dr. Derek Peek, DDS. The office is very professional, open and friendly. I was very glad that he was able to do my root canal the day of my first appointment so that I didn't have to wait to be treated. I would definitely return if needed in the future and will recommend him to friends and family. Thank you Dr. Peek.
