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.

Caring quality dental care
Dr. Donohue and Dr. Ellis truly cared about what was best for me and spent the time to explain everything in a way that I understood. They also wanted everything to be just right. Everyone in the office is so amazing and I loved watching the collaboration between the staff to make sure all of my concerns were heard and addressed. I started with a mouth full of dental issues and they showed me a way past all of the issues in a way that took away my fear and shame. They are simply the best.

Incredible experience
Dr. Donohue and her staff are the best! After an initial consultation, which was an open and honest plan of care, I was given all the possible options. I had bad teeth and gums with bone loss. I chose the plan of care that I was comfortable with and it has been executed to perfection. Can’t say enough about this practice! EVERYONE is friendly and caring. I highly recommend this dental practice for anyone. My entire family sees them.

My semi annual cleaning and check up - the day after the big 2022 New Year weekend snow storm. Have 4 wheel drive will travel! With the office hygienists ‘snowed in’, Dr Donohue actually did the cleaning and polishing herself! Awesome service, a stellar job, by just a great dentist. I recommend her always she’s the top!

Sunshine staff provided a professional and friendly experience. They demonstrated much experience and knowledge in my dental care, from examination through cleaning. The facilities are clean and bright from the time you enter the office through to the examination area, where the top notch equipment is used. I highly recommend Sunshine.
