Dr. Katherine is AMAZING with my 2 boys. She's very professional & knowledgeable. She also sings Disney movie songs to my children, while they're getting their dental work done. My kids absolutely LOVE HER!!!- Rena Rich. 0/17/2020![]()
Very positive experience. I was seeking a dental practice closer to my home and asked around. I did not want “a clinic” or mega practice where I see a different dentist each visit. The staff is uber-professional, warm and friendly. The practice is state-of-the-art and is located very conveniently (corner of Southfield Rd and 13 Mile). They have their own building, so I thought maybe it was a mega-practice.. but it is a father/daughter dental team. I am very pleased!- Rita Valade. 0/6/2020![]()
