Dr Stauffer is very gentle and caring, everything is exactly as he tells you. I have had several crowns and a root canal done at least once. He talks you through his proceedure so you know what he is doing and what to expect. I’m very comfortable with him. He is the best.😊 Jesús Paz Gutierrez GutiérrezMarch 6, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great Service. Excellent personal,
