Great team, and very professional. My colleagues have been coming here for many years and now I am happy to be a patient.
They took care of a lot for me! It took about a year's worth of work, there was always something to do every few months but now I’m on track.

I have been a patient of Dr Israel and Best Natural Smile since he took over the practice. I can't rave enough about how professional, courteous, helpful, and kind everyone is from Vicky, Christina, Hillary, and Angel.
Always above and beyond. Now with Covid, I feel so safe with all the safety measures they have taken. I have recommended so many friends and now even my parents are there too. There is none better!
