She's a very thorough provider. I appreciate she told me about all options and explained her thoughts for each. I feel she genuinely wants to empower women in their decisions. It's clear why she is so booked often. She has a very calming bedside manner and I wish more women's doctors approached patients the way she did about concerns and treatment.

Dr. Dent is by far the best physician I've ever experienced! She was exceptionally patient and explained my options so that I could make an informed decision. I have told ALL of my friends that she is going to be my doctor until death do us part! She is a rarity and a phenomenal physician. This is the first time I have felt like an empowered decision making patient. Thank you Dr. Dent!
