I have a true fear of dentist, however, not with Summer Rydel, DDS and her wonderful staff. She is very informative and gives it to you from all angles and I truly like that. She does not hard sell you but informs you of what you should do first and what can wait. I am so glad I found her....and would recommend her to everyone.
