“This dental experience was THE BEST ONE THAT I'VE HAD IN MY LIFE. As an adult, going to the dentist is just something I know that I have to do. I don't mind it. I've never met a dentist that I actually like -- until now. I was not looking forward to this visit. I was going because I had a minor emergency, and I needed to be seen quickly on a weekend. ...my regular dentist was not open, so I had to find somebody with Saturday hours on Zocdoc. I was so lucky to find this place. What I experienced there was transformative. He was thoughtful, skilled, and sensitive to my needs. He looked at my teeth, and helped me to understand what was happening and why. I am certain that I'll be leaving my current dentist, and changing to this practice.”
