i've never rated a physician in my life - my experience with nevins was terrible and has left other dentists shaking their heads. first, he still uses metal fillings - ok whatever, you like what you like, but when i went home and essentially bit through the filling he put in because he didn't file it down and i had to go back (quickly, as you can imagine with no filling in the tooth), i was less than happy. nevins then proceeded to drill it out without the use of novacaine, telling me i shouldn't feel any pain. i never feared dentists before, but i now understand what pain can be. he does the cleanings himself, which you would think would be a good thing, but i found him ameteurish and i would not recommend him at all. if you're going old school, maybe he would be ok, but take a shot of whiskey before you sit down and expect to see him again so he can fix his work.
