Main Street in Mapleton remains one of those quiet stretches where storefronts still feel personal. You’ll find the office at 307 Main St, Mapleton, IA 51034, sandwiched between the hardware store and the post office. The block has been there long enough that most locals already know the way, though newcomers might appreciate the low-key landmarks.

Scheduling tends to move quickly once the phone is in hand. A call to (712) 882-1021 usually lands an appointment within a week or two, depending on urgency. The staff keeps the line open for same-day emergencies, which can save a trip to the ER when a tooth decides to act up on a weekend.

For directions or last-minute confirmation, the map is always up to date. If the GPS steers you toward the edge of town, just remember Main Street runs straight through the middle. Pull it up here before heading out—nothing worse than circling a block you’ve driven past a hundred times.
