If I could choose zero stars I would. The staff is completely unprofessional in the way they made inappropriate comments about my clothing. I wore shorts into the office and was made fun of by every staff member in the building. They are lucky I don't file a corporate complaint over sexual harassment.

My teeth cleaning procedure was handled in a thoroughly professional manner. The kind way that Julia calmly went about her work was much appreciated. Dr. Braden's assessment of the next steps needed in my treatment plan was presented and explained so well that my anxieties were completely relieved. Kellie booked my appointment for an out of office referral very efficiently. I am pleased to be a patient of the Team.

I can't say enough about Dr. Steven Hecklin and how grateful I am to have him as my dentist. I have some difficult issues and am having six implants at once. He has gone above and beyond to ensure every step is taken for the best results and the least amount of discomfort. He even met me on a Sunday with an issue. I very highly recommend him and his amazing staff!

Dr. Hecklin became my dentist through a google search years ago when I had a tooth literally break in half! I called the office and they worked me in same day! Since that first appointment, he has been absolutely amazing at helping me perfect my smile! Everyone in his office is so kind and so welcoming! If you're looking for the best, you've found it with this group!

I used to see Dr. Hecklin for my regular dental care. Then life happened, and before I knew it, years had gone by without a dental check up. I went back to Dr. Hecklin's office yesterday for x-rays, a cleaning and an exam. Dr. Hecklin and his staff welcomed me and did not judge me for not coming in sooner. EVERYONE that I came in contact with at his office was kind and professional.
I have some minor dental issues going on and Dr. Hecklin explained them to me in a way that I could understand. I am so glad I went back, and I look forward to my next 6 month check up and cleaning.

This practice is outstanding! The office is extremely clean and the staff could not be friendlier. Dr. Schlessel took the time to sit and chat with about my needs and guided me on how to proceed. I felt very comfortable and would certainly recommend this practice to all of my friends and co-workers!

I LOVE THIS PRACTICE! I came into Dr. Hecklin's office for X-rays and a general workup. Everyone was so nice and I can see they truly care about the client. It was nice to walk into an office with smiling faces. I am very self conscious about my mouth due to some dental care lack in the past, but Dr. Hecklin welcomed me and did not judge my mouth.
He told me that it was ok and he was going to help. So far I am loving my mouth and smile a lot more often. I just want to give a BIG THANK YOU to everyone for being to amazing!

I came to Dr. Hecklin after some not-so-good experiences with other dentists. He was recommended to me by a coworker who had recommended him to countless others - and she said everyone seemed to love him. So I went to his office and was NOT disappointed. His staff members are so easy to work with, are flexible, and they know their stuff. Plus, for the first time in a while, I did not feel like I was being taken advantage of by a dentist diagnosing things that did not need fixing. Dr. Hecklin and his staff are trustworthy and friendly. Highly recommended.
