Patient Testimonials

If I could give Leslye Laxton 100 stars, I would. For most of my life, going to the dentist filled me with anxiety. Past experiences left me terrified of the pain, the sounds, and even the thought of sitting in the chair. I would put off appointments because the fear was so overwhelming. Then I met Leslye. She has completely changed the way I feel about dental care, and I don’t say that lightly. She is one of the gentlest, kindest, and most compassionate healthcare professionals I have ever met. From the moment she began my treatment, she made me feel safe. She constantly checked on me, made sure I wasn’t in pain, and treated me with genuine care and respect. I needed a deep cleaning below the gumline—something I had dreaded for years. Somehow, Leslye made what I expected to be a miserable experience comfortable. She was incredibly gentle, quick, and thorough. She paid attention to every detail, even making sure I wasn’t choking on water during the procedure. Lol! That level of attentiveness may seem small, but when you struggle with dental anxiety, it means everything. When she finished, my teeth and gums felt healthier than they have in years. More importantly, she gave me something I never thought I’d have: peace of mind about going to the dentist. For the first time in my life, I actually look forward to my dental appointments. After each appointment, I gave Leslye a hug because “thank you” just didn’t seem big enough. I don’t know if she realizes the impact she’s had on my life, but she turned years of fear into trust. She didn’t just clean my teeth—she helped heal years of anxiety. Leslye is warm, friendly, patient, exceptionally skilled, and genuinely cares about every person she treats. If there were an award for the world’s best dental hygienist, she would deserve it. Thank you, Leslye, from the bottom of my heart. You changed my life in a way you’ll probably never fully realize, and I will always be grateful.

I honestly cannot say enough great things about this entire office. Doctor Brian Work is top-notch and makes me feel like I’m the only patient in the world to him. He takes pride in his work and wants you to be happy with your teeth. And with his years of expertise, you are in good hands. My first experience with him was 13 years ago. Then there was a large gap between seeing him then and now. He still had all my records. He’s been practicing for so many years and I’m just so grateful that he has not yet retired because I really need him.! Thank you Dr. Brian Work and thank you to your wonderful staff.
