A lot of stuff going on in my mouth! And the staff has been amazing. Denise taking time in her off hours to talk, Rhonda and Julie out front helping with prescriptions and scheduling, and of course Dr. Sheppard taking time to thoroughly explain things and options. This team is amazing!!!
Extremely friendly staff. Dr. Sheppard was great, he thoroughly explained everything and addressed all of my concerns. This is now my new dentist
Dr. Sheppard and his staff are wonderful. As soon as, I walk into the office, until I leave my appointment, everyone is always so nice and accommodating. I had a crown prep today. Trust me, I am not a fan of needles. However, Dr. Sheppard is the best, when it comes to numbing before your treatment! They want to make sure you are comfortable during your procedure. They have top of the line equipment and new technology.Dr. Sheppard and his awesome staff treat everyone more like a family member rather than a just another number. I love the environment and look forward to my next appointment.If you have put off going to the dentist, call to make an appointment. You will be so happy with the service they provide! If they are busy, please leave a message. They are great about returning calls. I cannot say enough good things about this practice.
I love visiting my dentist and everyone at Sycamore Family Dentistry. To Dr. Sheppard and Denise❤️🎄: Thank you for always making me smile and making my day!🤗
I called right before they closed on Tuesday. I explained what was going on and they scheduled me for the next morning. I arrived and sat for maybe 5 minutes. The hygienist did an x-ray and Dr. Sheppard came in almost immediately. He examined me and explained that I needed a root canal and asked if I wanted it done immediately. I said yes and was prepped. I told the nurse that I was nervous and she assured me that I was in good hands. It was painless except for the needle for numbing. I'm afraid of the dentist but they made it so easy for me. Everyone was nice and respectful from start to finish. I've found my forever dentist.
