    Dr. Tucker's staff were great--the office is clean and professional without being as sterile and cold as some offices are. They have individual TVs with the sound on that you can change which was great. The office was easy to find, parking was ample, and my appointment started on time. Will definitely be making Dr. Tucker my new dentist.

    Not only is Dr Tucker great, but Holly was wonderful! They were detailed in informing me of everything they were doing and why they were. Bed side manners were incredible! Most important I felt like I was in the best hands possible.

    I didn't get a chance to meet Dr. Tucker, but I did meet with his other college, Dr. Brent Forsum. He was very friendly and warm. Even though I need some work done, he was open about all the information I needed and honest about what he feels I should do. Also, the hygienist was very very good at her job. She cleaned up areas of my mouth that other's had missed (my wisdom teeth). Overall a very positive experience.

    Great experience! Everyone was very nice and my teeth cleaning was well done. I really enjoyed my hygienist, Holly who took care of my teeth and was very sweet. Dr. Brent Fossum was also very nice and spent time answering all of my questions. Austin Family Dentist is my new go to for cleaning and regular checkups.

    Hadn't been to the dentist in about a year due to insurance changes but Brent and his team were awesome! My hygienist (I can't recall her name - sorry!) was great and explained everything she was doing so I was very comfortable. They had a TV so I could watch while she cleaned/X-rayed, which was pretty cool. Brent was personable and knowledgeable as well. Everyone here was fantastic!

    This was my first visit. The entire staff was incredibly sweet and welcoming. My appointment was right on time (not even a couple of minutes late) and was completed promptly. I have a follow up appointment scheduled with them in two weeks and I'm for once not dreading a Dentist visit. These guys know exactly what good service is.

    They were accommodating when I ran late due to traffic. Exam was thorough. Offered to numb my teeth when I said I had sensitivity.
