We love Sycamore Family Dentistry! The staff is helpful and kind! It is a small town feel and they feel like family.
From the moment you call the office to the moment you see Dr. Sheppard, you realize that one thing is most important and that is you. Dr. Sheppard and his entire staff truly want your visit to be comfortable, like you are visiting a friend, not a practice. Everyone is so friendly, welcoming, respectful and have a common interest in making sure you are cared for and appreciated as a patient, not just a number. If you are one that gets a bit anxious and puts off dental care, STOP RIGHT NOW, NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND CALL THE OFFICE. I assure you that you will be glad to meet such wonderful people and you will leave with a smile!! Whether it is routine dental work, or an emergency They have you covered. They made me feel so comfortable that I almost fell asleep during a root canal. Do yourself a favor and stop being just another patient and become one of their family. Many thanks to Dr. Sheppard and his entire staff. Glenn Update for May 1 2024 Again, I can’t say enough good about Dr. Sheppard and his team. They are so glad to see you and truly appreciate you as a patient, only thing is that you don’t feel like a patient you feel like part of the family. So as I have said before, stop procrastinating and call them today and see for yourself.
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.
