“I have been going to Dental Arts for quite a few years now. The staff there is so friendly, and they make you feel like part of their family. Dr. McFarland is the best. He genuinely cares about his patients. I especially like that he calls me by my name. It may not mean much to some people, but it just makes me feel good.” — Linda K., Dec. 2, 2011

“Last week was the first visit for my four-year-old daughter. Initially I dreaded the experience counting the days for her to go. I remember as a child how afraid I was to go to the dentist. Well ... to my surprise, it was the best experience I could have asked for. Julie was fun, she let my daughter Serena explore all the noisy little tools that would have normally been intimidating. My daughter left with smiles and actually asked if she could stay a little longer to play with Julie ... and yes, she had a cleaning too. Excellent job, Julie. I have told at least 10 people about the experience and so has my daughter!!! Keep it up!” — Lori C., Dec. 5, 2011

“I was very surprised and impressed with the quality of service that I received on my first visit. Everyone was more then professional, they are friendly and seem to really care. I got more answers in my one visit there then I have from my ex-dentist. I will now be going here and will be sending my husband here also. Thanks, everyone, for making me feel welcomed.” — Mary, Jan 8, 2012

“I have been a patient at Dental Arts Group for years and still enjoy coming in and not only seeing the staff, but enjoy the ‘bedside’ manner of the professionals that I have an appointment with. Dr. McFarland is not only great, but he treats me like a member of his family. He always asks me how my family is and always has a smile, we joked around and that is how I feel about the entire staff. They all deserve to be congratulated on a job well done.” — Domenic C., Jan 7, 2012

“I went to Dental Arts in Johnston because my husband was going there and my old place did not have a very nice secretarial staff. One of my first visits with Dr. McFarland involved me entering his office very upset and crying from my old dentist’s office because I couldn’t receive my old X-rays without having to pay a ridiculous price to give them to my new dentist. He calmed me down and made me feel a lot better. He is warm and friendly and takes time to know you. My hygienist, Ellen, is wonderful too. She is always very helpful and caring.” — Andrea, Feb 5, 2012

“Julie, our dental hygienist, is wonderful with my daughter Sofia, who is five. She is very patient, genuine, and funny, and Sofia cooperates for her unbelievably well. So much so that Sofia says the dentist is her favorite place to go and you don’t hear that from a child every day! If your child is reluctant to go to the dentist, I would highly recommend asking for Julie. Everyone in this office is extremely pleasant, professional, and helpful. They are also on the cutting edge with their dental technology, so you know you are in great hands, and that they will provide the most thorough and pain-free solutions for any dental need. Keep up the great work!” — Sofia P., Feb 8, 2012

“Excellent cleaning advice from Ellen, I had slacked off a bit using cheaper floss and less diligence, and it showed. She gave good tips on how to get my cleaning back to where it should be.” — Glenn B., Feb 15, 2012

“Great and wonderful office, highly recommended.” — Aidan V., Feb 15, 2012

“The laser worked great for me! I was amazed how quick, comfortable, and effective it was. I got the tell-tale tingle from a cold sore starting. With one simple treatment it went away before it even broke out!” — Susana S., Feb. 28, 2012

“My wife and I have been patients of Dr. McFarland since he opened his office. He is without a doubt focused on the most modern equipment and techniques available.

A sincere thanks to all.” — Bruno T., Mar. 8, 2012

“My time here at the Dental Arts Group was great! They were very cordial and welcoming as soon as I walked in the door. They explained to me what was going to be done in my checkup today and were able to get me to my checkup in no time at all. Because it was my first time to the dentist in almost 10 years, there was pain involved, but their kind staff comforted me and pulled me though it on my way to healthier teeth. I could not have asked for a better way to be reintroduced to dental hygiene! Many thanks to Dental Arts Group!” — Robert, Mar. 13, 2012

“Your staff has exceptional customer service and is always professional and friendly. I never have to wait for my appointment because they are always on time.

Thank you for making my dental appointments easy, fun, and stress-free!” — Andria B., Mar. 13, 2012

“Do yourself a big favor. If your dentist or hygienist is not meeting up to your expectations you should switch to the Dental Arts Group. Their hygienists are very thorough and have wonderful personalities. Dr. McFarland is very knowledgeable and up to date on all the latest in dentistry, plus he has a great sense of humor and makes you feel at ease. I highly recommend the Dental Arts Group!” — Doreen, April 5, 2012
