This was my first visit with Dr. Dent. She made me feel very comfortable. When I explained I am extremely hard of hearing and rely on lip reading, she responded immediately and made sure to communicate with me so that I could understand her. I would highly recommend Dr. Dent.

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.
