					I love the staff at Southwest Family Dental. Everyone is always friendly and helpful. I have been going there for 2 years now and have my entire family going there. I have never felt uptight being in the "chair" Dr.Batlle and staff take all measures to see to my comfort and I have never left disappointed. Have you had a bad experience at the dentist? Not here. I can't say more for the care and concern of the staff at Southwest Family Dental.

					Thank you to Southwest Family Dentistry staff for providing a safe environment during this pandemic. I was pleased to be able to stay in my car during the short wait for my visit to begin. Upon entering the office, my temperature was taken and I was asked a few questions to screen for the virus. Everyone had on facial coverings and hand sanitizer was readily available. As always, the hygienist was informative and professional. Check out was friendly and efficient.

					Dr Batlle and staff are very professional and courteous!   Procedures are explained in detail with ample time for patient input. Dr Batlle and staff go above and beyond to provide a safe environment and protection from COVID 19 concerns.  I encourage anyone reluctant to visit due to COVID 19 to check out Dr Batlle’s video on the precautions and practices that have been implemented to ensure the safety of patients and staff.   I also recommend checking out an article written by Dr Batlle in Dental Magazine December 2019 page 66 on injection technique tips for palatal anesthesia titled: Give It Your Best Shot.
