I made many fillings at Dr. Alison's in 2005. It hasn't been long enough to really judge about the quality, but the first impression was nice. She makes miniature holes, trying to keep as much of the original tooth as possible, and not many dentists do that; also, she's very gentle and I never feel any pain. She has state-of-the-art equipment. I definitely like this approach.
Dr. Alison's prices are high, so the insurance can't pay a lot. She's good, she's at the premium location, which means a lot of rich patients and very high rent. Hence, very high prices. I paid $200-$300 out-of-pocket per filling, and I have a great insurance policy. As one side effect, she's overworked sometimes.
The first time around I was late (10-15 minutes I guess), and she was very irritated. I had to come another day. She didn't charge me for being late, though she said she does that ($90 per 15 min, if I'm not mistaking). Do not be late for her appointments.
out of 5 stars
