ExcellentBased on 55 reviewsBobbie CravenApril 12, 2024I was impressed with Carefree Dentistry from the first call to schedule an appointment for my dog's dental care. The staff is professional, courteous, and caring on the phone. When I entered the office I was greeted warmly and my dog knew he was in a dog friendly environment. The vet tech saw us quickly and relayed my questions/concerns to Dr. Wingo before he examined my dog. I appreciated Dr. Wingo's honesty, professionalism, and compassion for animals. When more dental concerns were found after anesthesia, I was consulted about additional procedures and shown the scan evidence of extensive absesses. Having an anesthesiologist watching and directing the tech during the four hour procedure was a necessity for me. I will recommend Dr. Wingo's practice to all my friends and neighbors needing dental care for their pets.Angie MichelApril 3, 2024Recently, my vet advised that my 15 year old "kitten" needed her teeth cleaned and possibly a tooth or two pulled. I didn't feel comfortable having her cleaning and possible extraction completed at my regular vet. My son had just taken his cat here for some dental work and he had nothing but great things to say about the visit so I decided to make an appointment too. Dr. Jucan met with us and looked at Maddy's teeth, discussed a plan, and we proceeded with the cleaning/treatment. Dr. Jucan's goal is to save the teeth if possible, rather than extracting them. Maddy was able to keep all her teeth!!! Throughout the day we received text updates/calls to keep us updated. After the procedure Dr Jucan took the time to walk us through the treatment, X-rays, the vitals during the procedure, before/after pictures and the at home care directions. From the first call asking for information and an appointment, to the evening text from Dr Jucan checking in on Maddy, the entire staff and doctors were amazing. Their knowledge, expertise, care, and genuine love for animals is clear. I felt comfortable and at ease knowing Maddy would be in good hands. The visit was a bit pricey but worth every penny. I absolutely recommend Dr. Jucan and Carefree Dentist and Oral Surgery if your pet needs a cleaning or has dental needs.Allie AlldredgeApril 3, 2024I cannot recommend Carefree Animal Dentistry enough! From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the professionalism and care provided to my furry friend. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain each step of the dental procedure. My dog's teeth have never looked better, and the results speak for themselves. Not only did they improve my dog's oral health, but they also provided valuable tips for at-home dental care. With their gentle approach and top-notch expertise, this service has undoubtedly earned my five-star ratingKayla ChaseMarch 27, 2024Wonderful experience! Friendly staff and phenomenal care of my pet. Highly recommend to anyone seeking dental care for their pet.Shelby CorlissMarch 17, 2024The team at Carefree Dentistry truly cares about the animals they help and they are very knowledgeable and talented at what they do. Their communication and dedication to pet parents is phenomenal. I can't thank Dr. Jucan, Stephanie or Ricardo enough. They love my girls and I trust them fully to take care of my dogs. It's obvious that my pups feel comfortable here and love the staff just as much. The team regularly follows up during procedures and the doctor even follows up post op via text later in the evening. This team is so thorough in explaining and documenting all the things as well transparent which I appreciate so much. They're great at answering any questions you have, remaining empathetic, and helping you make the best and right choice for your pet. I can't recommend them enough. We've been seeing Dr. Jucan for 4 years now and will continue to for as long as she practices vet medicine. Dental care for your pets can be really expensive but it's so worth it for the peace of mind and important for their health. I wouldn't take my pets anywhere else for dental care!Katrina SandersMarch 16, 2024We called Carefree Dentistry and Oral Surgery for a second opinion evaluation of my sweet boy Baxter who had a swelling in his face, and his general vet was not giving us conclusive answers. To give a short background: I am a dental hygienist and international speaker in dentistry, and I just published a peer-reviewed article on canine oral cancer, so I was quite concerned about what this swelling was, and was concerned that our vet wasn’t taking this seriously. I called and Stephanie was AMAZING - she got Baxter in the next day to see Dr Jucan! Our experience with Dr Jucan is precisely what a highly skilled human dental hygienist would do for their patients. Dr Jucan was kind, thorough and incredibly supportive. EVERYTHING she said is in complete alignment with what we would have done or how we would have approached this same finding in the human world. This gave me terrific confidence in her ability to diagnose. Unfortunately while Baxter went under sedation, I had to hop on a flight to go speak for a client across the country. Stephanie started a group text between myself and my husband, where she provided constant updates as to how he was handling the sleepy juice, how his body was responding to the treatment, and when he was in recovery. The communication was incredible! My husband picked up Mr. Baxter and came home with a comprehensive folder of EVERYTHING that happened, including imaging and charting. To say this periodontal hygienist/international speaker/consultant was impressed is an understatement. The next day, Dr Jucan texted us to check in on Baxter and make sure he was doing well with postoperative healing - the prescriptions she provided are precisely how we would approach this in the human world, and she has been incredible about providing care to Baxter like he was her own. I must say: if you’re looking for a dental and/or oralmaxillofacial provider who cares and does the right thing without compromising patient care, look no further. I am truly blown away, and put my stamp of approval on this incredible organization! Thank you Dr Jucan and team for an amazing experience!Heather MaltzMarch 13, 2024Two of my kitties had fairly involved dentals here at Carefree Dentistry and I had a great experience both times. Dr. Jucan, Dr. Wingo and Dr. Young were all great to work with and did a fantastic job. Receiving updates throughout the day definitely helped to assuage my anesthesia anxiety! I also appreciated the Drs going over the procedures in detail afterwards, as well as being sent home with a folder documenting everything that was done. Both kitties recovered without issue! I’ll definitely be coming here from now on for any of my cat’s dental needs. Violet and Clay say thank you for helping them live their best lives!Joseph BristyanFebruary 22, 2024Dr. Jucan, Dr. Young, Jaycie, and Shelbi were all amazing. My 6 month old puppy unfortunately had to have a very invasive surgery and everyone involved was incredible. Dr. Jucan was so thorough and reassuring. She was knowledgeable, confident, and professional. I wish I would have found Carefree Dentistry and Oral Surgery sooner. I would absolutely recommend this facility to anyone who needs dental work for their pets. Thank you again!
