Dr Eric Van Sluyters dental office is always a great experience. From basic cleanings to maintaining and repairing my teeth. I have always felt them to be very upfront about the approach they would take for the situation and I have never felt like I was being oversold like so many other dentists I have tried over the years. I would highly recommend you check them out for your dental needs.

Today I was having some sensitivity and they immediately worked me into the schedule to check on me. They provide friendly, kind and quality care. I have been a patient here for over 10 years and Eric and his team are always wonderful. Heather, the administrator, is on top everything and always reminds me when it is time to come back in for a cleaning. The new office is stunning and a treat to visit. Thank you!
