Stephanie & Julie went to Utah for a weekend to learn how to file medical insurance in the dental office. This course was with Devdent through Henry Schein and explained the ins and outs of medical billing. This will particularly come in handy with diagnostic scans and surgical procedures! Don’t be surprised if our front office team now asks for a copy of your medical insurance card next time you’re in!
The Testimonials
Meet Our Happy Clients
We love our patients, and they love us! See what our patients say about our office.
From my first phone conversation to set up a "new patient with a sore tooth" appointment, I felt like I would get the care I needed. Everyone was friendly and went above and beyond to ensure I felt at ease at the office. I was greeted pleasantly as I walked in the main door and got checked in quickly. I waited less than 10 minutes and was escorted to the exam room. The answers I gave to questions were taken seriously and tests were explained and never forced. I always felt like I was being heard and in control of what did or did not get done. There were so many personal and comforting details done excellently and Dr. DeVaney listened carefully and spoke to all my concerns. My overall first impression was outstanding!
