Dr. Shively and crew were fantastic! Made my visit very pleasant. The service was fantastic, and I was in and out within an hour with my issue resolved and a clear plan for future visits. I'd highly recommend them if you are needing a new Dentist.

I am OVERJOYED with the service, kindness and the overall professionalism from all of the staff at Dr. Shively's office.

After a bad experience elsewhere, it was truly a breath of fresh air to experience the level of care and the respect as a human being that I received there.

I will definitely go back and will be sending all those I care about as well.

I sincerely thank you all for seeing ME!

Dr. Shively and his team are wonderful! They see our family and are always fast to work with us and all our dental needs. They recently started seeing my 3 year old who was nervous but they made sure she was comfortable and relaxed and informed. When she left, she couldn’t stop talking about how much she loved getting her teeth cleaned and how nice they are. Thank yall so much!
