Dr. Shuff is a class act. Professional without any of the pretentiousness you might find at some dentist offices. Down to earth guy willing to make you comfortable. Gets the job done. Oh, and can you believe it, they run on schedule. I'm out early more often than not. As a kid I was traumatized by my dentist. Dr. Shuff is changing that. Tough guy I'm not. Work I've had done has lasted without need to be redone. Office staff is very nice as well. Office building is older but meets the need nicely.

About Hygienist: Has a few. Some talk a lot but are most friendly. Again, they get the job done and do it well.

My overall experience with Dr. Shuff has been great. Dr. Shuff is friendly, has the latest equipment, and makes going to the dentist a pleasant experience. I was not happy with my previous dentist because I felt like I was being over treated and over charged.

About Hygienist: Dr. Shuff has great hygienists as well. Some are talkative, some are quiet. You can choose who you see on your next visit.

I know this doctor: 3 years

He was nice and professional. My problem was when I had a chip in my front tooth fixed, the tooth is larger than any other and it is a different color than any of my other teeth. I am very unhappy about this, but I continue to go to him for my other problems. I have had 3 fillings with no problems.

November 2, 2005 Last month I had x-rays and a cleaning. Today I had two old fillings replaced. I was very satisfied with the friendly staff and my overall experience: -The office is immaculate -Pleasant atmosphere -Did not have to wait past my appointment time -Procedures were done quickly and efficiently -The cost is competitive, Dr. Shuff is on my insurance plan

I went to Dr. Shuff in pain. I believed Tooth A was causing the pain. However, another dentist told me he thought tooth B was fractured which was causing the pain. I told Dr. Shuff what the other dentist said and asked Dr. Shuff what he thought. He "did as I asked" and pulled Tooth A. I expressed my anxiety, in response to which, Dr. Shuff injected me with so much novocaine in so many shots that the muscles in my face to the top of my head were affected. I could not even blink my eye! Other patients gasped when they saw me! I was sick and needed to sit for quite some time after the appointment. Another dentist in Dr. Shuff's office was concerned and told me I felt sick because I had too much novocaine injected and that it would subside in time. Later, after implant surgery to replace the pulled tooth, I again found myself in excrutiating pain. The dentist who did the surgery had to pull Tooth B to relieve the pain. Of course he found out that Tooth B was, indeed, fractured! I EXPECT A LEVEL OF COMPETENCE WHEN VISITING A PROFESSIONAL. YES, IT IS IMPORTANT TO CONSIDERED A PATIENT'S WISHES, BUT IT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO RELY ON PROFESSIONAL EXPERTISE WHEN MAKING DECISIONS ABOUT PATIENT CARE. Thank you for this forum.
