"Thank you to the staff and Dr Bergan at South University Dental. My family and I always enjoy our dental visits. You make us feel as though we are your only patients. You are able to accommodate 5 appointments at one time so we can all be seen on one day. I recently called about tooth pain and was seen the same day! You have great customer service and know what is important to your patients. I really appreciate how Dr Bergan is willing to consult with others in my family who have dental experience.

Verified Customer

"I have always had a lot of anxiety with going to the dentist, even for regular cleanings. I have found that I no longer feel that anxiety before a visit. The last few years, along with today I have seen Jamie. She is very professional, kind, caring, comforting, along with very thorough. I had the best appointment I have ever had at a dentist. Jamie says its because I am flossing more, but I think it is also the ease I feel before, during, and after the appointments. I would also like to mention how assured and relaxed I am knowing if something does come up and I need more work done that Dr. Samuel is equally as great. Thanks for finally making my dentist experiences positive."
