As far as general dentistry, I have only seen Dr. Sturdivant as I believe Dr. Lee does only orthodontics. I cannot speak to the Ortho side of the practice, but the general dentistry side is top notch.
I have seen a few dentists over the last five years, having moved quite a bit, and this practice has been the best I have attended. First, Bianca at the front desk. Quick to smile and very knowledgeable about insurance. You know that goes a long way. She knew what my insurance would cover when I walked in the door and knew my HSA would cover the rest. That's a big deal because many places are "We will bill you later", which is another way of saying, "Get ready for the surprise!".
Dr. Sturdivant cleaned my teeth on my first visit and I did have a cavity that I needed to come back for. She gave a very thorough cleaning without stabbing my gums. You know what I am talking about. On the cavity, I didn't feel the pain numbing needle at all. Quick, thorough, and answered every question I asked. I do tend to ask questions about the process, tools,etc. My sister is a dental hygenist in Connecticut so I have become very interested in best practices. Dr. Sturdivant may be 2nd generation family dentist, as I think I gleaned from a passing conversation that her father may have been a dentist (minor speculation). That would not surprise me as I can tell/feel she understands dentistry.
The office is a little young age wise in staff and therefore I find them fun, light hearted, eager to please yet still focused on task. If you want to be throughly cleaned, taught, treated well, and be set up for success for the next six months, I highly recommend this office. read more
