The office has quality facilities and does decent cleanings; however, they push services on you, such as removing the wisdom teeth. It seems that they care aboue money more than your health - and here's when it can become important. My tooth started hurting after a filling that this doctor had done and, when I came back, I was told that the hole in the tooth turned out to be too deep and that the filling procedure exposed the nerve; I now was in need of a root canal that I wouldn't have needed (at least yet) if not for this failing filling procedure. Instead of offering any kind of reimbursement for the failed filling, doctor jumped onto going through the kind of options I have for the root canal (fyi - root canals are ten times more expensive than fillings) While with deep holes, there is a valid risk of exposuring the nerve during a filling and so doctor is not necessarily at fault for such an outcome; the incentive system is really screwed up if a doctor who does your filling stands to benefit from over-drilling and exposing the nerve. With such an incentive system, you really need to be confident that the doctor cares about your health more than money; but this practice did not make me confident of that.

I know this doctor: 2 years
