Wow!! Dr. Nikkels and her office were a gem to find in this small town! Coming initially from a big city, and having moved around a lot on this adventure called life, I have worked with with many dentists through the years. I really value my smile and the health of my teeth, and have found through life that an excellent, honest, ethical dentist is hard to find. Looking back, while I have met two great ones (WA and NV,) I can honestly say Dr. Nikkels has been my favorite. From her kind and easy going bedside manner, to her immense knowledge that she shared when I asked questions, to her honesty which was illustrated during the exam and cleaning regarding the health of my teeth, I left her office with a huge smile on my face. She also provided me information on ways I could continue to maintain and improve my dental health, keeping my smile great for years to come, and as a perfectionist, I appreciated this!There is nothing I can stand more than going to a dentist, being told that I suddenly have five cavities, and when I go for a second opinion NONE are found. 8 months later, Dr Nikkels would have been the third opinion (with plenty of time for those cavities to worsen!) and, alas, zero were found.It is a gift to find a dentist who doesn’t subscribe to the “drill, fill, and bill” model of dentistry, and who also is a genuinely nice person at that. I hope that Dr. Nikkels will be my dentist for years to come!
