Meridian Smiles is sooooo great... They have a day that they donate free services to veterans. I thank them so much for their services! Dr Steel is very professional, expert dentist, and a good guy.

I have moved this dentist for three years now. Dr. Steel is the best!
Every staff member was incredibly friendly and Dr Johnson was knowledgeable and explained everything thoroughly. The practice was clean and welcoming. I would highly recommend.

I was treated with the utmost care by Dr Steel and Bridgette Taylor on my recent visit! I most definitely will be returning!
