Quality Christian Dentist, excellent staff, professional care. Military discount also for our veteran's like myself.

Dr. Dollinger and dental assistant Blanca were amazing! Front desk staff were very sweet as well. Christian music playing the entire time made me feel so at peace for someone who doesn’t love the dentist. So glad I found them!

Morgan D. | Sep 10, 2024

Dr.Dollinger is very nice and helpful. The girls that work there are so sweet and caring. This is definitely the best dentist I have seen!

My appreciation for this practice has only grown since my first post 6 months ago. I have had quite a bit of work done this year and every experience has been thorough, professional, and friendly. I can’t say enough compliments about this team. I wish everyone could share this experience when it comes to dental care. Thanks family for everything, it’s always nice to see all of you.

I could not be more pleased with my experience at Upwards Dental. I recently moved to the area and had to go through the "not so fun" transition to a new dental practice. At first arrival it felt like family. The team was very welcoming, and we immediately hit it off. The comprehensive check I went through was by far the most thorough check I have ever experienced. Along with this, a very thorough insurance coverage analysis was provided to me. Before leaving on my first day, an appointment was cancelled, and they offered to fit me in to that time slot to begin taking steps toward executing my dental needs. Within 2 days we were able to knock out high priority issues. During that time, I believe I took 6 numbing needles and did not feel a single one. Following these procedures, I received personal texts checking in on me. AMAZING! I have never been at a point in life where I am actually looking forward to going to the dentist and seeing "the family". I would like to thank Jenny, Tenille, Blanca, Martine, Mikisha, Erica, and of course Doc for their attention to detail, their kindness, and making me feel so comfortable in an environment that can bring stress and anxiety. Feeling very fortunate to have found this group, looking forward to continuing our tooth journey, and would highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for the best experience. Thank you, Upwards Dental!

Replaced a crown on a 35 year old wisdom tooth. No pain! Two hours in chair - some uneasiness as expected. Great teamwork by Dr Hollenger and his and next day follow-up. Very professional.

Redivider R. | Aug 21, 2024

My visit to Dr. Eric Dollinger’s office could not have been better. The check-in was friendly and easy, the procedure itself (two fillings) was very nearly free of any pain, and was handled speedily, though carefully and with consideration for my comfort. Dr. Dollinger (I call him Eric, which feels right and comfortable) has a way of putting you at ease. Blanca and Martine, two of Dr. Dollinger’s assistants, were also efficient and friendly. Plus, I enjoy practicing my Spanish with Blanca and Dr. Dollinger, both fluent in Spanish. Check-out was handled very efficiently and with friendliness by Tennille. I was also overjoyed to see how much my insurance paid on the bill. Overall, a great dental experience!

Greg M. | Aug 15, 2024

Just having my initial visit with Upward Dental was very relaxed and very informative. Staff is very professional and helpful and is willing to help set up a treatment plan to help me achieve my Dental goals. Will definitely be recommending them to family and friends!

Michael R. | Aug 15, 2024

I have been a patient at Upwards Dental for at least a decade and have consistently received professional, conscientious and compassionate dental care from Dr Dollinger and his entire staff. I recommend them, without reservation, to anyone seeking quality dentistry.

James L. | Aug 14, 2024

I’m always pleased by the courtesy and care they give to their patients

Noah D. | Aug 09, 2024

Best Dental office around! Hands down!

Shannon H. | Jul 23, 2024

I can not say enough great things about this dental practice. I had my first visit recently and the staff and Dr. Dollinger are amazing. My anxiety was through the roof when I arrived expecting to have the same nasty experience I have had in the past with dentist but I was wrong. The compassion and care they show is top notch and they make you feel so comfortable and at ease the entire visit. If I could give them 10 stars I would.

Christopher S. | Jul 10, 2024

I love the Christian atmosphere in the office. The Christian music that's played is very relaxing as well. The entire staff are very caring, friendly and genuine The dentist is always as gentle as he can be when he worked on my teeth and concerned about my comfort as he worked. I give them 5 stars because they definitely deserve it. I highly recommend this dentist office to anyone needing great dental care.

April B. | Jul 02, 2024

I can not even begin to tell you how wonderful these guys are! They have went above and beyond with making my fear of dentist disappear. If you have any fear of the dentist this is your guy. I had a tooth removed today and literally never felt the first bit of pain.And it wasn't a easy extraction due to me putting it off. Not to mention I was a walk in. Thank you

Tatyana D. | Jul 02, 2024

Today we went to Upwards Dental to meet Dr. Eric Dollinger who made my moms top denture which lasted for 15 years by now, and she still has it and uses it because it fits perfectly and she never had to use any adhesive powder to keep it in place. So, now when she needed help with her bottom teeth she told me to find Dr.Dollinger again. This doctor really takes time to explain all the options to solve the problem and does his work with top quality. He treated her like his own mom and we were very satisfied with the solutions Dr. Dollinger offered and we were happy to meet again his very friendly team.

Douglas L. | Jun 22, 2024

Well I just had a tooth extracted on my second visit, wasn’t impressed with my insurance and at first I thought the estimate was a little pricey. I have now realized I was wrong in my first opinion. The procedure went exactly as they said it would without any pain. The whole staff was exceptional. They work as a team and it was very apparent as they shared their knowledge. Thanks guys

Amy S. | Jun 19, 2024

Great staff to work with in a clean, friendly office environment. Dr. Dollinger is a kind and compassionate dentist. He thought originally I was in need of a crown, but once he started working on my tooth, Dr. Dollinger determined we could go with a solid filling instead and save a good portion of my tooth. The insurance filing is simple as well, they handle it all.

Billy R. | Jun 18, 2024

Excellent staff. Thoroughly explained what's going to happen. Very professional and most importantly to me, I left the place happy with results knowing what's going to happen next. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a good dental place.

Betsy C. | May 16, 2024

After having several poor experiences with other dental offices I have been very pleased with Uowards Dental. I have had routine cleanings as well as major dental work over the past 5 years with Dr.Dollinger and his team. Very kind and professional!

Neha | May 14, 2024

I had to have a surgical tooth extraction and I couldn't be more pleased with how everything went. The staff and Dr. Dollinger were kind, caring, professional, and assuring. I felt very well taken care of... Much gratitude.

Wynelle T. | May 12, 2024

Celia O. | Apr 25, 2024

Great place, with great people that you can trust to take care of you and your teeth. I have anxiety and they help me to feel more relaxed and comfortable. They really care about their patients. Highly recommend. I also took my mom to the dentist today, she had to get three teeth pulled. He only charged for one. They're not only good at their job but they are kind and really care about their patients.

The staff and Dr dollinger is so friendly, fast and very caring. I have alot of problems with my teeth and haven't been to a dentist in an extremely long time. I came and he told me we will work something out where you will be able to not be in pain and also smile with confidence again. I have only had one appt but I'm very excited to get my mouth healthy again💙

Marvin T. | Apr 09, 2024

I chose this place initially because of how close it is to home, but I’d choose it all over again because of the kind and competent staff and the quality care they deliver. The office is clean and comfortable, and making or rescheduling appointments is easy. Definitely recommend.

jeff D. | Apr 09, 2024

They were able to see me on short notice while I was on vacation. Everyone there was welcoming and made sure I was taken care of. I do not live near there so its unlikely I would be back but if I lived in the area this would be my dentist. Thanks for everything.

Terry H. | Apr 09, 2024

Dr Dollinger is very meticulous in his dental work. He takes his time to make sure your patient care is top notch.

Dan J. | Apr 09, 2024

No one loves going to the dentist but as a new patient, I was treated very well and they know their stuff. They explained my care plan simply and accurately. I have a good sense if humor and the staff picked up on that so we had a laugh or two. Very nice christian folks.

P M. | Apr 04, 2024

gail L. | Mar 21, 2024

My 1st appt.was very encouraging to someone who had lost her faith in Dentistry. DR. Dollinger worked me into his schedule immediately and I left the office feeling a great sense of relief., in that I found the right solution to a very complex problem related to my overall health. He was also precise in telling me what procedures had to be done, and cost of each, and in what order. For all that, I am most grateful and , believe it or not, am actually looking forward to my next visit to the Dentist !

Lois B. | Mar 19, 2024

After moving to the Asheville area from Fl, I did a lot of researching for a new dentist. I found Dr Dollinger and have not been disappointed. He is a fabulous, very dedicated person. Dr. Dollinger takes his time and strives for perfection. The ladies who work for him are fantastic as well. Thank you all for making my trips to the dentist pleasant ones. Lois B

allison J. | Feb 27, 2024

I HATE going to the dentist. But, Dr.Dollinger and his staff are exceptional! Erika is the best hygienist I’ve ever had. She has a calm demeanor and is so gentle cleaning my teeth. I neglected my teeth for years due to horrific pain I experienced during cleanings. Now I get my teeth cleaned twice a year. I am so thankful for Erika, and would recommend her to anyone.

Linda B. | Feb 22, 2024

Very professional, thoroughly explained what would happen during first visit after asking problems I had with teeth and gums as well as expectations of first visit and beyond. Jenny was excellent in getting me prepared to meet the Dr. Dollinger and he had reviewed my X-rays with Jenny and I was quite happy and relaxed during his exam of my moth and our discussion of various choices as we work towards dental wellness.

Laura W. | Jan 02, 2024

These folks are AWESOME. I was having pain and they worked me in first thing in the morning right after a holiday weekend. I expected to wait a long time since I was being worked in, but they started to work on me very quickly, and had the answer I needed to explain my pain and tell me what was needed.

SeeChelle F. | Nov 17, 2023

I love Dr. Dollinger and his team. As a child I had horrible experiences with a different office, and it made me terrified of dentistry. In 2010, I met Dr. Dollinger and his team and that all changed. I'm grateful!

NJ S. | Nov 08, 2023

Upwards dental is the best!!!!! They have sweet hearts and care about their people. They have repeatedly shown how much they value their patients and go above and beyond to ensure their care. If you need a dentist that will care for you as a person and not just your teeth, then come here. It’s awesome having a dentist that shows his passion isn’t money, but to leave hearts better than when they walk through the door. Thanks to you and your work family for your excellent care!

Corrie B. | Nov 04, 2023

Erica is the best! Thorough cleaning, yet gentle and caring.

5eanReardon | Nov 01, 2023

Best dental experience. I was scheduled to get a crown done, went in fully expecting to have a crown, he got to work and was able to salvage and redo the filling and avoided having to do the crown altogether. He has the patient's best interest at heart and will go out of the way to make sure you are happy and well taken care of. Operates by the "treat others how you want to be treated" motto.

Anne L. | Oct 17, 2023

I never thought I would say this about a dental practice but I love going here for my dental work. We found them while looking for a good dentist for my Mom. Dr. Dollinger is a true professional and his staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Recently, I had to have two cavities taken care of by Dr. Dollinger. They were the first new cavities since my teen years. He is skilled at giving the anesthetic needles and the fillings were done in no time. My mom had to have a new partial made up and that worked out very well, too. I highly recommend this dental office.

Kristina (. | Oct 14, 2023

I look forward to my appointments at Upwards Dental. The entire staff are welcoming, genuine and nurturing people. I appreciate the atmosphere and the quality of service is outstanding. I began there in 2020, recovering from drug and alcohol addictions, with unhealthy teeth. They, as well as my cooperation, have aided my healing journey immensely with there support and expertise.

Marci J. | Oct 13, 2023

I just had an amazing visit at Upwardd Dental! Everyone was really, really nice & helpful!

Bob J. | Oct 10, 2023

When we moved from Wilmington NC to Hendersonville NC we were hoping to find top flight dental care which summarizes Upward Dental. We have been served by Dr. Dollinger and his staff since we arrrived in 2017 and are very satisfied.

Kerri D. | Oct 10, 2023

This experience and Dr Eric has been so amazing. I tried to find a comparison picture and realized in my thousands of photos I do not smile openly once. I am still in healing and readying for next step of my phased implant journey. My confidence has gone through the roof and I find I am always smiling. The team here are amazing and truly are gentle both in procedure and in manner. They put you at ease and work with you without allowing you to feel ashamed or embarrassed.

Jeannie S. | Jul 12, 2023

While traveling my tooth starting hurting. I found Dr. Eric and he was the best. He helped me so much. I needed an upper root canal and Dr. Eric’s I got in to see the specialist the next day. �

Caleb K. | Apr 09, 2022

I had a dental emergency and Upwards Dental went above and beyond to facilitate me! worked me in and got me all fixed up in no time. the entire staff had a mannerism of care and compassion and Dr Dollingers chairside manner was one of the most calming that I have experienced in any dental office! if you have struggled with bad experiences in the past , Let Dr Dollinger show you how it really should be done for your future!

Gina S. | Apr 07, 2020

I’m very impressed with the responsiveness of Dr. Carter, and the compassion shown by Upwards Dental.

Tracey W. | Apr 07, 2020

I haven’t personally been to this office. I have a friend with an abscessed tooth in Hendersonville and her dentist refused to see her because she is a nurse who works in the hospital. Your office agreed to see her and I am grateful and happy to sing your praises. Thank you for taking care of those on the front line!

Amy P. | Mar 11, 2020

We’ve (myself, my husband, and our three daughters) been seeing Dr. Dolinger for about 18 years (that’s likely a strong enough review alone :).

Stephanie J. | Mar 04, 2020

I love Dr. Dollinger and his staff! They are all both friendly and professional. They truly care about you and your experience while there. And who knew you could have fun at the dentist?!

Calvin H. | Feb 29, 2020

Best dental experience I've had. Very professional, friendly, while efficient and very up front about everything. Saved me from getting a procedure done that probably would not have helped recommended from another dental association. Would not hesitate to go back for any further work, and that's saying alot. Thanks team and Dr. Dollinger.

Travis P. | Feb 26, 2020

Erica is the best! She is always very thorough and gentle while cleaning my teeth and I am never disappointed!

Kristina N. | Feb 25, 2020

Dr. Dollinger and his team have given me back my smile that I have hidden for nearly a decade. They were able to work with me in getting my implants done in a way that allowed me the chance to pay in a time frame I could manage. Dr. Dollenger and his team never seem to have a bad day or be in a bad mood and if they do, they never show it. I am so grateful for this team and what they have given me is priceless.

Macy | Feb 24, 2020

Dr. D, Jenny, Hannah, and Erica these people make going to the dentist easy! Their chairside manner makes you feel at ease. Upwards Dentalwill be my forever dentist!! But if Erica leaves I'm following her she is the BEST hygienist ever!

Danielle M. | Feb 12, 2020

Upward Dental has friendly staff. The office is peaceful and clean. Erica Pressley is the best hygienist. Her kind, bubbly personality puts all patients at ease! She makes the visit pass quickly and efficiently with humor along the way. I highly recommend!

Great customer service! Going there is like having family care for you. They care and it shows in the way they treat you!!!

Always a great experience at Upwards Dental! Earlier this year I arrived for my appointment to have my custom night guard fitted. The power went out due to some kind of construction in the area. It was also my birthday. Dr. Dollinger and his staff not only worked with back up batteries and lights to make sure I could keep my appointment for a perfect fit (I grind my teeth something terrible), they made it a great adventure! We called it “Dentist in the Dark!”, laughed, and had a fun time...I posted a photo! The entire staff made me feel special, and I even left with a card signed by all, along with a Starbucks gift card to celebrate my birthday. Who does that?! Upwards Dental. I’ve been a patient here for years and Dr. McChristian and Dr. Dollinger have always been amazing, staff have always been so friendly, (a special thanks to Erica who cleaned my teeth gently and perfectly and was so sweet yesterday), and my teeth are healthy! If you’re looking for professional, friendly people who care about you and know exactly how to care for your teeth, Upwards Dental is the place for you! 🤗

Dr. Dollinger and his staff are professional, caring, friendly people who strive to help their patients in any way they can. A visit to the office, whether for cleaning and check-ups or complicated procedures, is always a positive experience. I highly recommend this practice. Thank you, Dr Dollinger!

Justin S. | Jul 25, 2019

Best Dentist office of all times. Extremely nice and friendly. They do next day check up calls to make sure your doing well. From check in all the way to check out they make your visit amazing. If all dentist offices were like this everyone would want to go to the dentist.

I LOVE Upwards Dental. Of course I’m going to brag on my own daughter, Erica. She could hurt me while she’s cleaning my teeth as payback for the punishments she received as a child (LOL) but instead, she takes extra steps to be sure I’m comfortable and pain free while she cleans my teeth. Nothing makes a mother happier than seeing her girl excelling in her career and doing what she loves. As far as Dr. Dollinger goes, he is up to date on new technology and procedures. He has spent many hours with his staff planning for a complex case before even beginning the first step of treatment. He truly does give an individualized treatment plan for each patient taking their needs and concerns into consideration. As for the rest of the staff- they are so kind, thoughtful, and efficient. I had an appointment scheduled on Valentine’s Day, and when confirming the appointment via text message, I replied “only if I get flowers” (LOL again) and to my surprise and delight, Carolyn and Tabitha had flowers AND candy waiting for me at the front desk when I walked in the door that day. You can tell everyone in this office cares about you as a person, not just your teeth. Of course I wanted to support my daughter’s career, but I’m so blessed she is employed by such wonderful and caring people.

Erica was amazing with my 15 year old and my 8 year old!! Thank you sooo much!!!

Very deserving 5 stars. They do a lot to ensure your comfort. I'm looking forward to seeing the end result of my visits.

Lance P. | Feb 11, 2019

Well run operation.

Chip M. | Jan 31, 2019

As a former dentist, I was thrilled with my recent appointment. A tooth that I was sure needed a crown, Dr. Dollinger was able to fill by being careful to remove only what was necessary. He and his assistant, Jenny, kept me informed of progress and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire procedure. It gives me great comfort to know my former patients have a conscientious team taking care of them.

Tom H. | Jan 16, 2019

I had a great visit. Anders is a wonderful hygienist. She is very professional, compassionate, and skilled. She did a terrific job on my teeth and then Dr Bollinger followed up with a comprehensive exam. Another super visit, thank you.

Bill A. | Jan 16, 2019

The staff here are great! They have shown my family love beyond measure. My 3 yr old wants to be a dentist because of Dr. D!

Reginald S. | Jan 14, 2019

Dr. Dollinger and staff are as professional as can be! I had a cavity and he and his assistant Demi were quick and efficient to repair the area. I highly recommend!

Amie C. | Dec 14, 2018

Prompt, professional, fabulous! Love my dental team!

Debbi M. | Dec 05, 2018

Dr. Dollinger is a very caring and personable dentist. Having dental procedures done is never "fun" but he and his assistants go above and beyond to keep you informed and comfortable throughout the process ...they even brought me a warm fuzzy blanket during my recent lengthy procedure when I got cold! :) Keeping up with the new technologies, techniques, and products of his trade seems important to him and I appreciate that. He has surrounded himself with a very professional and courteous staff, some being with him for quite a long time which says a lot! From simple cleanings to bigger procedures, I highly recommend Upwards Dental and Dr. Dollinger :)

Mary A. | Nov 20, 2018

Best dental care we have ever experienced. The entire office are dedicated professionals who treat you with personal care. Dollinger is skilled and seems passionate about what he does. If you are looking for a dental "home", this can be it.

Kari B. | Nov 13, 2018

Hands down Dr.Dollinger is the BEST dentist I’ve ever been too. He and the staff at Upwards Dental are kind and caring. They explain in detail what they are doing and why. They take their time with you and never rush you through your appointment.

Linda K. | Nov 09, 2018

I am a bit of a dental phob but everyone goes out of their way to be kind and make it a good experience. I would (and have) recommend this office.

Beth T. | Nov 06, 2018

Friendly and general staff!

dorothy F. | Aug 19, 2018

I was visiting my brother in N.C.for a family reunion, when my upper front 6 piece bridge fell out. I was so upset , i couldn't face my family looking the way I was. I called that same day and they got me in right away! The staff and Dr. Dollinger was so professional and made me feel comfortable and assured me they would get it fixed. Dr. Dollinger took his time explaining all my options before we proceeded. My current Dentist in Florida did not tell me all the problems I had. I'm actually considering to fly back and forth to get all my teeth worked on by this practice. I recommend this life saving office to any one that needs dental work at affordable prices and a heavenly touch! And he wasn't even my dentist! I was recommended by my brother. Love this office! Dorothy

I don’t know where to start! From the second that I called to make an appointment with Amanda, she was so accommodating and she was so sweet and kind on the phone. I didn’t feel like I was being rushed at all to just make an appointment. She took her time with me and explained everything to me about my insurance etc. I went in today for my initial visit. And again she was so incredibly sweet! The dental hygienist Erica, was amazing! She explained every single thing to me. She was so fun to be around and I had so much fun sharing stories with her! I also have to mention that I brought my two kids of three and a four-year-old. Because my husband is working. They completely welcome to my kids put on a movie for them and let them play with the toys that were in the room. I have never been to a dentist that is so welcoming to the entire family! Then the dr! So nice & welcoming! I felt like I knew him for years! He explained everything as well and was very thorough! Thank you again guys for everything! I actually can’t wait to come to the dentist again. If your looking for a great visit to the dentist in every single way go here!

Great place to have your teeth taken care of!!

Monty L. | Jun 29, 2017

I had my first visit with Dr. Dollinger yesterday and I must say, I've never been treated so professionally. The whole staff is a pleasure to work with. After the numbness wore off I could not even tell I'd been to the dentist. Thank you!

Kenneth R. | May 10, 2017

I had Dr. McChristian as long as I could remember in early childhood up until I was 19 years old when he moved to a new location. He is a wonderful dentist. He's quick, efficient, knows what he's doing, great with children and always has a positive attitude and conversations!

Lacie V. | Apr 07, 2017

All the staff is wonderful and very welcoming! If it tells you anything, my 7 year old daughter who wouldn't even open her mouth for a local pediatric dentist WITH nitrous gas has had 3 procedures with Dr. Dollinger with no gas, no fighting, and even fell asleep during the last 2.

Kevin M. | Oct 27, 2016

Our experience at McChristian Dental has been a wonderful experience. The staff are very nice and attentive to your needs! Dr. Dollinger is a wonderful dentist who gets to the "root" of the problem. He sincerely cares about his patients.

Cheryl R. | Sep 21, 2016

You walk in and you are greeted by a member of the staff and they make you feel like your at home! The staff is super nice and very attentive! The Doctor is very kind, attentive and has a lot of patience. He goes above and beyond to make sure you have the best care!

MichaelPhyllis L. | Nov 12, 2015

Okay, I admit it....I'm a chicken when it comes to dental work! I recently needed to have an old crown and underlying decay removed and a new crown put on. My teeth have gotten more sensitive so I was anxious, to say the least. Dr. McChristian was totally compassionate! He prescribed a pill to take the edge off my anxiety, which was great. During all of the necessary work, he and his staff went above and beyond to make sure I was okay, even giving me time to rest my jaw! I can honestly say that it was not painful in the least and I now have a crown that fits perfectly and healthy mouth. I always get a great cleaning as well thanks to Karen! You guys are my heros....you get 5 stars not because I loved having dental work done, but because I love that you kept me comfortable and pain free! Maybe I won't be such a coward the next time! Thanks so much....you're the best! Blessings~Phyllis

Fonda C. | Nov 11, 2015

I decided to take a big picture view of some dental problems. Let me just say...these are the nicest people I have ever worked with in a dental office. The staff and Dr McChristian listened, took the time to see me as a human being and explained everything in detail. I have not been so impressed in a long time. I would recommend this office to anyone and will be doing just that in our community!

Peggy A. | Aug 20, 2015

I have never had such a gentle and considerate Dentist. Dr. McChristian and his staff are amazing. I no longer dread my dental appointments. His staff is always so helpful and works with my crazy work schedule in planning my appointments. Blessed!

Whitney P. | Mar 11, 2015

Absolutely love this office! Every staff member is professional, kind, and knowledgeable. They clearly care about their patients. I've been seeing Dr. McChristian for 30 years, and he has always patiently explained each procedure and gently performed it. He is truly the best there is - I can't think of anything that would deter someone from using this office.

Helen L. | Mar 06, 2015

Dear friend, We have all kinds of the tooth models products,are you interested in them?If you need to buy them,please let us know it,Waiting for your reply.Thanks,Helen

We are from out of state and came through on business. My husband needed an extraction done asap. McChristians office was the only dentist office open on Friday. They were happy to see a new patient. When we arrived, we were greeted by a a very friendly receptionist, we spent less than 5 minutes in the waiting room before we were called back. The dental assistant had a sunny personality and was very efficient. Doc had a wonderful bedside manner. He explained everything about the procedure in great detail and answered all of our questions. He took extra care to ensure that the area was numb before starting the extraction and asked frequently if the patient was "okay". Both my husband and I have had bad experiences with dentists in the past. McChristian seemed too good to be true. We couldnt be happier with our experience with him. Amazingly enough, it gets better. Dr.McChristian called my husband's cell phone personally and checked on him.....after hours. This kind of attention is unheard of in Kansas, where we are from. I know it'd be a long trip but I would definitely consider the drive from KS to NC again for any dental needs.
