Dental Administrative Coordinator
I have always had high anxiety when it has come to going to the dentist. But everything about Imperial Family Dental Center was different. From the moment I called to schedule my appointment, to my actual appointment with Dr. Hanlon was great. Dr. Hanlon even gave me a follow-up phone call the next day to check on me. I would highly recommend this office! - Barb B.
