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.

Very friendly, efficient and competent. I actually enjoy my time spent there and they solved my problem. Would definitely recommend them!

He is able to do very hard and out of the ordinary cases. I have found him to not only be extremely capable, but also kind and accommodating. He is very easy going. Over the course of 30 + years I do not have a single complaint. He is the best of the best when it comes to dentists.

My sons dad lost his job at orbit irrigation after 23 years due to reorganization. I called Ashays office to see if they could clean our teeth and do exrays. We waited in the office for over an hour while he talk golf with his buddies. When my son and me went in the hygienist did the work and did the worst cleaning I have had in 40 years. They did not even polish our teeth. After that the dentist did not even come to look at my teeth. I went home and called them about the issues that were no addressed like what did my exrays show, what about my gum issues, sensitive teeth. They offered to have me come back in for a consult but when I went in they tried to sell me tooth whitening. This place is a joke and this dentist is just old and board. His great reviews don’t come from clients they come from friends to make him look good on line. Stay far away from this dishonest dentist. He needs to let go of his practice and do paint by numbers at home....

Dr. Asay is a wonderful dentist! He is kind, caring, gentle, and does good work. He's great at numbing the area where he's going to work. Everyone in the office is friendly. I love how my teeth feel after a cleaning.

I have been going to Dr. Asay since we moved to the area when I was 11. I have like him and his staff so much I have continued to go to him even as an adult. He had helped me through several dental emergencies throughout the years. He even has been willing to come in on a Saturday to fix a bad tooth, and wrote me a prescription on a day off. He is kind and friendly as well as his staff! I highly recommend him!

I was having my 6 month cleaning, and was very happy with way the office worked to complete my procedure in plenty of time for me to get to work in the morning. They also gave me plenty of tips and helps on how to better my brushing and flossing techniques. Very gentle, very professional, very friendly. Will highly recommend Asay Dentistry.

Dr. Asay is amazing! I chipped my front teeth and was nervous that it would be noticeable, but after Dr. Asay fixed them I couldn’t even tell they had been broken, they looked that good and natural.

Such a great dentist and office. You can tell they have the best interest of their patients in everything they do and recommend. I’ve been to a few different dentist offices and I feel like some are just trying to get your money and even recommend things you don’t need! Dr Assay wasn’t like that at all. He took great care of me after a bad experience elsewhere. Totally recommend!
