Customer Satisfaction
“Have been seeing Dr. Boldin at Accent Dental for at least the past 25 years. I can’t imagine myself going to another dentist… he is kind, gentle, and takes the time to explain. He is cautious and would never do anything unnecessary. His staff is wonderful and take the time to really get to know you. Shout out to my hygienist Stephanie for being awesome! Thank you!”
