I visited legacy dental for he first time today and they gave me the best experience ever. They made my daughter visit memorable by personalizing it. They had a welcome sign took a picture and gave me a copy. Gave us a tour of the office and let my daughter know exactly what they were doing and what they were using. Totally will recommend.

"My review is more of a thank you, my son had a bad experience with a previous dentist, so he was scared to go to this visit and everyone in that office made him feel very special. I want to thank the 3 girls in the front desk you welcomed us like family, the manager was very friendly and went out if his way to make my son feel awesome, the staff in the back including the dentist were all very patient. My son now is looking forward to the next visit so thank you to each and every staff member, you guys are all so special!!!"
