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.

Excellent care!
I can’t say that getting a filling has ever been a good experience, but this time around it really was. Dr. Thorlakson took his time in carefully explaining everything in terms I could understand and was meticulously detailed with the procedure itself. You can tell patient comfort is a big priority for him. He is kind, caring and compassionate and truly cares about his patients. You can definitely tell how passionate he is about dentistry. He is an excellent dentist and I feel confident putting my dental care in his hands! The newly renovated office looks so great! I look forward to my next visit!

Excellent experience
Dr Thorlakson was very knowledgeable and gave me great pointers for healthy oral hygiene. Kayla, his hygienist was awesome also. I avoid going to the dentist but both Dr Thorlakson and Kayla made me feel at ease. I will definitely keep going back! Thank you!

Awesome dentist
Dr Thorlakson is very professional and educational! There are a lot of dentists that don’t inform you of ways to take good care of your teeth and mouth but Dr G was willing to talk about whatever I had questions about and very informative !
