This was my first time at Mayfair Family Dentistry. I normally am very scared to go to a dentist, even more terrified of a new dentist. As soon as I walked in the front door I felt calm, no fear. The receptionist was so nice and welcoming. When I got taken back, Barb, the dental hygienist took care of me. I was with her an hour and a half, doing the new patient exams. I was never scared, she was so kind and gentle, I felt so relaxed. She was such a wonderful person. Then last, I saw Dr. Holmes. I already knew through a family member how wonderful she was. Now I saw first hand. She is a kind, sweet, person. I didn't need any dental work, but when I do, I won't be scared, I know I will be in good hands. I know Dr. Holmes is a kind, gentle caring person, and very knowledgeable. I am so fortunate to have her as my dentist. I plan on staying here a long time. Thank you. Janice Anello

Chrissy the front desk lady is always respectful. Her customer service is top tier she always has good energy. My overall experience was great everyone was kind an respectful especially carrie the lady that did my deep cleaning an x-ray 🩻 her skills an knowledge about the profession she chose was a good talking point. Carrie did a great job taking of me yesterday an she also made sure I was comfortable which I appreciated very much cause not many doctors/dental offices still do that anymore it's hardly ever incorporated into there customer service for patients. So really appreciated carrie for doing that. I will highly recommend this dental office to anyone.
