Mark Arruda

Phenomenol dentists and personnel at this clinic.I called Monday morning with an emergency, they were thankfully able to squeeze me in for an examination to determine the problem. Once determined, they were able to book me for an extraction the very next morning.The procedure was done with Dr Summer. The entire procedure she was very professional, excellent care manner. Once the procedure began, it was only about 10 minutes until my tooth was fully extracted. No pain, no fuss, it was over before I knew it!Thank you so much Laurier Dental and Dr Summer, you've given me back my quality of life with one simple procedure!
