"As a fellow healthcare professional, I must say I do not know of any office more professional or caring than Jim and Carol's!! I actually love going to the dentist. I have had cleanings, root canals, fillings and caps (yes I am old and hard on my teeth) but all have been done exceedingly well, working with my schedule and delivered with a smile all around. DRs. Jim and Carol Herrington are exceedingly competent, intelligent and pleasant and I so appreciate them. Their staff is wonderful and I highly recommend their clinic! 5 stars, without a doubt!!"
