Don't Take Our Word For It
Just wanted to say "Thank You" for a wonderful experience today. My daughter, for the first time, pays attention to her dental appointments and is relaxed enough to be apart of her care plan. The dental hygienist are courteous, well trained and friendly. Actually the office feels like family!!! Dr. Rodrigues is detailed and up to date on not only normal dental procedures but holistic and health conscious new procedures. We will be keeping Chester Dental in the family and advising others of the excellent care.
