PARENT REVIEWS
I have a profoundly disabled child as well as a typically developing child. Both have been treated lovingly and with great care and compassion. Particularly for parents of special needs children, I cannot recommend Dr. Pierce and her staff highly enough. They are compassionate, caring and take great care of Jacob every time we visit! ✪✪✪✪✪ — Lauren G.
The dentists and staff are fantastic! My kids have been going to see Dr. Pierce since they were very young and they have always had a wonderful experience! Recently we had a little accident and they were able to get us in immediately! I would highly recommend! ✪✪✪✪✪— January G.
We had THE best visit for my five and three year old!! My oldest has been going here for the last two years and my youngest had her first visit today. Both hygienists we had were absolutely wonderful!! They were so upbeat, positive, friendly and so great with my kids! Dr. Pierce is the exact same way. She’s so energetic and knowledgeable within her craft. She always lends a listening ear and is so friendly with my kids. The cleanliness of the lobby and dental offices are out of this world!! Cannot say enough great things about the Greensboro Center for Pediatric Dentistry!! So happy here! ✪✪✪✪✪— Heather S.
