I’ve known Dr. Patrick for years. She’s the best at was she does! The staff is amazing at this office! My daughter Adalyn loves going in for her appointments with Lauren!
Every single person at University Dental Group was welcoming and kind. My hygienist was thoughtful and gentle, and made sure I felt comfortable the entire time. I am typically anxious about going to the dentist, but this experience was completely different. Dr. Patrick radiates positivity. In my 40 years, I have never left a dentist appointment feeling happier than when I walked in, but I did today. Truly amazing people and an incredible practice.
I had an amazing experience! WAY WAY WAY BETTER than my old dentist office. The staff were amazing and I left without my teeth hurting from all the scraping that my old dentist office use to do. They were gentle and had amazing equipment that did the job. I would 1000000% recommend switching to this dentist office.
Through my employer I visit multiple dental offices, and there are a LOT of very good Doctors and staff. Some, better than others. With that said, I switched to University Dental Group and find the 30 minute drive worth it! Can’t say enough good things about them!
The staff at University Dental Group are wonderful! They helped my mom with her dental needs and they made her feel comfortable! She hasn’t been able to have dental work done for many years, and the staff were very nice, talked her through the process, and she feels great and her smile is back! Thank you University Dental Group! You do exceptional work! Marsha and Jennifer
