My younger brother found Dr. Carr years ago. He shared him with the siblings. I was so lucky my brother was willing to share this find, because I have been around the dentist block.
I have some pretty blinged out teeth (gold crowns) and I favor chewy candy. That is not always a great mix. Dr. Carr and team are always so nice when I come in with something I have pulled off* (Milk Duds, Hot Tamales are no longer part of my candy choices) and he is honest about the work that needs to be done on my teeth.
The front desk (Beverly previously and now Betty and Nancy) are always so polite. They have been able to pop me in recently after I had a crown done (went with porcelain this time- gonna miss my gold!) and it needed a teeny adjustment to fit. And did you know that they make porcelain crowns in office, so I did not have to walk around with a temporary on for weeks?! It was magic.
My teenager now goes to Dr. Carr too. He has had a ton of crazy dental work previously and actually reminds me to make his appointments for yearly checkups with Dr. Carr to manage his upkeep. Dr. Carr is direct and honest about what needs to be done. And doesn't push braces onto me or my child. Dr. Carr treated my child like a person- discussed the work he wanted to do and how to handle the baby teeth. My child made a dental decision based on his interaction with the dentist (and me) but it helped that there was no baby talk, just honest interactions.
So yeah, I recommend this dentist. I have and I will again.
*I am admittedly horrible to my teeth and grind- not poor crowns- poor owner.
