Recent reviews

All of my previous dentist visits in the past have been pure horror stories from fillings that weren't needed, a tooth extraction as a child that was not needed, to waking up in the middle of a complicated wisdom tooth extraction. I like this dentist. She immediately saw that I was not expecting what was needed to be done that same day and that I was extremely uncomfortable. She worked with that, answered all of my questions and was understanding of my anxiety. On the day of the actual wisdom tooth extraction, she told me everything that was going to happen and made sure that I felt as little pain as possible and was even willing to communicate what was going on during the procedure. Whenever I would tense up, I was gently reminded to relax and breathe. At no time was the approach ever condescending or arrogant. It takes a lot for me to say it coming from such bad experiences but I do indeed like this dentist and while I hope to never need another tooth removed, I would not hesitate to let this dentist do it.

I was able to get immediate resolutions to my problem with consideration to how much my insurance covered and my out of pocket expenses. Very helpful.
