What our patients are saying
Highly Recommend

Staff is easy going, the environment is relaxing, and we always leave well informed about our dental health. Staff are gentle and communicative about each step in the x ray and cleaning process. We highly recommend BH Family Dentistry!"
- Johanna Barrett
A Gifted Dentist
"I’ve been with Blue Hill Family Dentistry for a long time. When Dr Gillins took over the practice I didn’t know what a gifted dentist the area had acquired, and he was able to complete cosmetic work I’d waited years to attend to. They truly make me feel like my dental health and my smile is their most important work every time I’m there."
- Aimi Baldwin
Very, Very Caring and Skilled
"Dr Gillins and Dental Assistant Shannon are both amazing! I felt 100% confident in their hands. They explained everything and put me at ease for a procedure I was very nervous about. Dr. Gillins is very very caring and skilled, and takes time to listen to any concerns. The entire office staff exudes warmth and kindness. WOW. I’d give more stars if I could."
