Dr.Kohan, DDS is "the best!" She comforts me by guiding the procedure while working on my mouth. Dr.Kohan is quick and efficient! I strongly recommend anyone who needs Dental Work to visit Dr. Turnipseed's Dental Connection, where the Dentists, in my opinion, are the best.

I recently became a patient here at The Dental Connection. As soon as I walked in, I felt seen, the environment and staff were so welcoming. The dentist who did my exam and treatment plan, Dr. Cohan is so thorough. She made sure I understood every procedure and had another very nice young lady break down the costs to me. Everything about this place is a 10/10. I can’t wait to go back.
