Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Went in for a crown and the whole experience was amazing. Friendliest staff, hygienist, and doctor. You can tell that they are very passionate about their professions. A++

Dr. Cote and his team are first class. I had an old veneer that was adversely affecting my smile. He took the time to lay out all of my options and the pros and cons of each. He provided a roadmap for success and personally followed up with me after each procedure. He is an absolute artist. I am so happy with my results. Thank you team of The Dental Office at River House for your care!

Highest quality place, best team and my Dr David was the best dentist Dr I ever seen. I was a dental phobic for many years before coming to this practice. Life is so much better with a healthy smile. Switched our whole family to this wonderful office.
