"I was greatly relieved that I could be seen so quickly. I had called 2 other dentists prior to your office and no one could find the time to see me let alone help me out.  Your staff immediately worked on trying to calm my anxiety regarding my visit and they have such great people skills that anyone who walks into the office would feel like they were being greeted by a friend.
I had NEVER had a good experience visiting a dentist, however, my first visit to your office has changed that history. Wish I had you from the very beginning. 
I was so greatly impressed that after I left the office and I told my husband about my expereince, we  decided right then and there that you will be our family's dentist.
I would be crazy not to return with the friendly and kind staff, the well run office, and a wonderful kind doctor. How can you improve perfection."

Besides having a completely modern office and equipment, Dr Vanover is throughly up-to-date on current practices.

I did extensive research on the internet before choosing Dr Vanover. It paid off. I was quite satisfied with my dentist in Colorado, but Dr Vanover is even better. Best shot giver ever.

Keep doing what you are doing."

Dr Vanover seems like a nice man. Definitely personable, caring, informative, knowledgeable and skilled. I think his background has helped him in developing good people skills and attention to detail.

Lori (hygenist) did a very good job and helped me feel relaxed.

In addition to meeting my dental needs, I felt the staff valued me as a human being and try to help me in the way way posssible.  I felt uncomfortable going to the dentist at first, but they all helped me feel better.  I was happy to learn the reason for dental problems, what had caused them, what solutions are available, and what I can do to help improve my hygiene myself.

I am very happy with the service being provided, the quality, care, and friendliness of the staff."

BEST DENTIST! This Guy is really Good!

"Dr. Vanover is the Best Dentist I have ever visited. Whether just for a routine check-up or for more serious issues, Dr. V spends time explaining everything to you and with his state of the art office and tools, he can show you right there what needs to be done. I wish more health care professionals had Dr. V's style."

Great Dentist, Great Staff, Great Service

Great Job + No Pain! I had the best cleaning & exam ever. I was able to see for myself where the problems areas were on the big screen with the high-tech digital x-rays and camera. Everything was well explained. I've had numerous crowns done at other places in past, but this was first time I had one done with no needle AND no pain! Very cool, loved the laser, and the in-house crown machine, and the fast completion. Dr V even called me that evening to check on me.

"Dr Vanover, I would like to thank you and your staff for providing me with excellent dental care. I appreciate the promptness of appointments, and the care and consideration given to me. As you know, I had stayed away from getting dental care for 10 years, so I was very apprehensive. You and your staff put me at ease and as a result I feel much more comfortable and will no longer skip my 6 month dental cleanings and checkups! Thank you."

"I love the fact that I was told what was going to happen every second of the way. I love the fact that even though I do not carry dental insurance that I was still seen and still treated like I was very important.

Generally people are scared to go to the dentist, and knowing that you can go and feel comfortable makes me want to go back every time. I know people that say I'm scared and because of that I will tell them about how you guys made me feel like I was the only important person there and that I was nervous at first but once I sat down on the chair I felt very comfortable.

Wow my first experience was great so you guys do not need to do anything different."

"Nice office and truly wonderful people! Dr. Vanover and his staff are great - personable, funny, and professional - all at the same time!

Everyone there is knowledgeable about current procedures, and it's great to be able go into an office where you're more than just a "name and number". You can comfortably joke around with folks that make you feel like family, knowing that the work you need to have done will be done correctly, and in a professional manner. 

My husband and I love this office and all the staff! We wouldn't go anywhere else!"
