“This was the most pleasant dental visit I have ever experienced. They were respectful, prompt, and delightful during all of my procedures. The work that was done as quickly completed but very well executed. I had a crown, 2 fillings, a cleaning, and a tooth repair.
I will be sending everyone I know that needs work done to them. It was a great experience. Thank you.”
“I have never had a negative experience with the team at Meridian Dental since becoming a patient of theirs about 3 or 4 years ago. Both Dr. Gurr and Dr. Pieper have amazing bedside manner, I have never felt like a bother to either of them. They and their entire staff take the time to listen to your concerns and explain procedures as they work with you.”
“Meridian Dental listens and takes care of their patients. I have dental anxiety and they work with me to reduce the stress of the appointment or procedure. I am glad to have them for my dental needs.”
“Great service! I had a crown fall off on a Friday night and was able to be seen the next day, a Saturday. Dr Pieper and his staff were very kind, reassuring and helped map out a plan for me. I am a 'senior citizen' and they treated me with respect and transparency. I also feel their prices are totally reasonable and have high hopes that my upcoming dental work will be done well and thoroughly!”
