Ive been seeing Dr. Hallisy for a couple of years and Im so happy that I switched over to her practice. I have always felt well taken care of. Dr. Hallisy is very honest, professional and thorough when it comes to taking care of your dental health. I also found her staff to be the same. Since the pandemic Ive gone in a couple of times and felt very safe, which is very important to me due to my age. I highly recommend Dr. Hallisy for your dental needs.
