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.

I wont go to anyone else.
Dr. Timmerman is exceptionally skilled and friendly. He exhibits a gentle touch when working on your teeth. His staff is also very welcoming. I once witnessed Dr. Timmerman performing an emergency tooth repair for someone I knew, and he did an excellent job. I wouldn't consider going to anyone else. My trust in Dr. Timmerman is unwavering at 100%. When it comes to cosmetic dental work, Dr. Timmerman is, without a doubt, the best!

Lance is extremely professional. I have anxiety about going to the dentist, and everyone in the office does a great job of easing that stress. Very nice, clean and professional office. His staff is very well educated, easy to talk to, and Lance is the best and most efficient doctor I have ever seen. Can’t speak highly enough of my experience(s) here.

Dr. Lance Timmerman is a good doctor. He answers your questions to the best of his ability and explains everything in layman's terms. However, the only thing I didn't like was my last visit with him where his hygienist was out sick and he had to do my routine cleaning. He did not look pleased when I told him I couldn't breath while he was cleaning my teeth and he had this mouth extender or something shoved in my mouth. My tongue was blocking my airway due to the extender pushing it at the back and the way my body was positioned, so I had to stop him and take it out of my mouth. He did not say a word and attempted to continue with what he was doing and basically just told me to breath with my nose. How can I when my tongue is blocking my airway? Anyway, I had to suffer the rest of the appointment gasping for air and felt like I was being drowned. Not coming back for sure.

Dr. Timmerman is very cordial, but ultimately more about making $ than the long term health of ones smile. He performed implants with a bridge that is so ill-fitting, that I need work on the tooth in front of it, as it's been taking all the force of my bite. My other bridge is also a poor fit. I found a great dentist that isn't 'selling' me and whom I can trust to replace the shoddy work received by Timmerman. The office and staff are clean and wonderful. Just get a second opinion.
