Testimonials Green Blue Circle Square

Katie C.

Dr. Laura is truly AMAZING! Patient, Kind, compassionate, concise and knowledgeable does not even begin to cover the level of care we received. Family centered care is one of the most admirable attributes. She was not only great with my daughter, but great with me as a concerned parent as well. She is highly trained and specialized in Lip and Tongue ties. The provedure was unbelievably fast and healed so well! Her staff was helpful and knowledgable in insurance matters as well. She was our first choice. I would recommend her to anyone.

I can’t wait to go back in to see her for my next dental appointment!

Dr. Laura is a unicorn health care provider. She exceeded our expectations in every way and I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone searching for information on tongue and lip ties. She is a wealth of knowledge, warm & welcoming, financially accessible, and genuinely wants to help in anyway she can.
