My family (2 adults, 2 kids) have used Dr. Handog for many years. She has a clean, well-run office. Prices are very reasonable and she works with most insurance programs. Everyone in the office is always friendly, warm and efficient. Dr. Handog and her assistant do all the work of cleaning teeth, X-rays, filling cavities, extractions, and all the usual procedures that general dentists do. Dr. Handog was fine with my child when she was little too, but I used a pediatric dentist for some extractions, just because the equipment and furniture is not child-sized in Dr. Handog's office. For procedures that have required a specialist, such as an oral surgeon, they provide excellent referrals. The office is small enough that I feel very at home there. I highly recommend her and hope she doesn't retire early!
About Hygienist: Dr. Handog does much of the cleaning herself, which is great, because then she really knows what's going on with sensitivities, trouble spots, etc. Her assistant also does cleanings and is excellent, having worked alongside her boss for many many years.
I know this doctor: 12+ years
