out of Read Reviews for Dr. Ann Christopher
I went to Dr. Christopher for about a year and a half with the hope of establishing a good relationship with an in-network dentist. The front office was very friendly and performed quite well where rescheduling and insurance were concerned. Additionally, I never had to wait for longer than 30 minutes to get in the chair. However, "The Chair", would be the right terminology when experiencing dental care here.
The first visit was a cleaning and although she seemed to be a little over-aggressive with the pick and I washed about a pint of blood out of my mouth, I decided not to worry about it. This happened a few more times before I started to look for a new dentist. Unfortunately I did not find one before she discovered a cavity. The simple procedure took an inordinate amount of time but more to the point I feel psychologically scared from the whole experience. Prepping me for the filling, she gored me 11 times in the gums with several needles.
I have broken a number of bones, been bitten by dogs, cut up by coral and almost had my thumb ripped off. Dental care at Dr. Christopher's office was by far more traumatic than any of the above.
Although she is a nice person, I would not recommend her for work in this field.

Front desk staff is wonderful. Warm, friendly, always remembers me and my family, despite the lapse in time between visits. Dentist is sweet and personable. Very calming and friendly. Good about explaining procedures. She really makes sure you're relaxed (and numbed if necessary) before starting. Any stress I feel is of my own -- nothing she does makes me feel uncomfortable. Fast, efficient, and with the right insurance, not expensive at all. Even without insurance, the price seemed reasonable.

I have only had a few cleanings by her, but she and her staff are very nice. However, she charges more than I am used to, and my insurance doesn't cover much of what she charges for (fluoride treatments, etc.), when my cleanings used to be covered completely at my old dentist. If you don't mind the price, then she is a great dentist.
