I'm a great fan of Island Dental Center in general and Dr. Stan Askew in particular. I've been a patient for several years -- and it is about time I threw in my two cents' worth. Going to the dentist can be a distressing experience. But this never has been the case with Island and with Dr. Askew. The place is clean, charming, efficient and soothing -- just what one needs when waiting for someone to have a go at one's teeth with metal instruments. Dr. Askew is patient, effective and efficient, besides being blessed with a splendid personality and remarkable good humor. Full marks all round to him and his entire staff.
