If you don't have dental insurance, or even if you do... CHECK HIM OUT. I walked in and he was able to see me almost immediately, even without an appointment (although I would recommend scheduling if possible.) I had severe pain on my left side and got x-rays, and he wrote me scripts for antibiotics and pain meds. All for 65 dollars. I then was able to get an appointment today (Friday, the 29th of May) and had both of my upper wisdom teeth pulled. Non impacted, however both with severe decay. I was severely concerned as this was the first time ever getting my teeth pulled and we were only doing it with Local Anesthetic. Again I would like to mention he has the BEST bedside manner I have ever seen. He gave me only 4 shots at first to numb me up before giving the rest of them to make it less painful for the shots since I am hypersensitive to pain. He also had a cup of juice there to wash out the taste of the anesthetic. Performed both of the removals in about 15 minutes (most of the time waiting for the numbing.) He also checked in with my partner who was in the waiting room and let them know how I was doing as she was concerned (top notch bedside manner again) He then wrote me another script for some stronger meds and then I went to the counter. I was very concerned with how much it might be and it turned out... 2 simple extractions only: $196 I was simply blown away. I walked away with a smile, a numb mouth and about 10 of his business cards to give out. \nThis is the dentist you want!!!"^^ .
