Dr. Pyle & Fatou were both wonderful – very caring, patient and gentle with a very anxious patient- and did fantastic work. And a special shout out to Meghan who worked with me on setting up a treatment plan that I could handle and encouraging me when I wanted to give up on treatment. I have my smile back thanks to you all!
