"Me and my daughter went to the dentist at rock creek for cleaning and other treatments. The staff and doctors are extremely friendly and patient. They make you feel very comfortable and make sure you are not in pain or discomfort. They are reasonable and work with your insurance as needed. I definitely recommend this place."
