I’ve been going to Hawthorne Dental and Braces since 2019, and it has truly been the best dental experience for my family and me. Dr. Verney has assisted my husband, my son, and me with exceptional care every single time. He’s the only dentist we trust!

I have been a long time patient of Dr. Verny and I can honestly say that he is the best dentist I have ever had. He's gentle, kind, caring, and he listens to his patients. I will continue to see him for my dental needs. The office staff is also very nice and thoughtful.
