"Like many folks, I have a dentist phobia after a handful of traumatic experiences. I have been coming to Dr Yancho for over 5 years now and have not had a bad experience yet! Him and his dynamic staff are kind, compassionate, and experienced . They make sure you are comfortable and clearly explain any procedures. If you are looking for a longtime family dentist, you’ve found them."

"Dr Yancho is a blessing. His great skill and his compassion for wanting what’s best for his patients is evident in the care he provided for me. I had a bump on my tongue that didn’t require a biopsy, but due to injury, needed to be removed. Dr. Yancho fit me in promptly and was able to skillfully remove the tissue using a laser. No bleeding, no pain!!! I am so grateful, Thank you, Dr Yancho"
