I have two daughters that went to Dr.Hemberger's office after their dentist retired. My younger daughter's treatment was perfect.
However, my older daughter had a horrible experience! The dentist did NOT give her enough pain medication for her tooth extration procedure. As she was begging them to stop and telling them she was in pain, I pleaded for them to stop their work and give her more medication. The doctor literally turned his eyes to me for a second and then just went about his business! My poor daughter went it "the rough route" until they finished and she has nightmares of the dentist now- gee thanks, Doc!
After speaking to the dentist right afterward, my concerns were all but dismissed. Apparently as he put it, "I have been doing this a long time and I can tell when someone is in pain." He continued to say that if "tears are not flowing", someone is not in pain. I whole-heartedly disagree!
Do not send your children here, unless you want your children to be at the doctor's many years of experience....that still doesn't let him know when someone is in pain. If someone is begging for mercy and being held in place, they are in pain! Never again will I subject my kid to that!
