Dr. O'Niel was my childhood dentist and he was an adequate one at that. However, as the years went on, his dental hygenists took over treating me and he'd usually come in at the end to give me the quick glance to say all was well. I know my family had major problems with the receptionist, however, so service can a bit shaky if you're on her bad side. Nice thing about the office is there is barely a wait; if you arrive at your specified time, you usually don't sit down for than a minute or two before you go in (no sign in---they are expecting you). As for chair-side manners, the hygenists and Dr. O'Niel do talk and ask what's going on and they try to keep you at ease. The biggest con I have is the gentle factor: That really disappeared over time (has to do with the hygenists). Last couple times I went, I wanted to rip my teeth out b/c I was in pure pain. I really can't comment on costs or insurance since I was a kid and my folks handled all that--but I did hear a few grumbings from time to time (and a couple declarations of finding a new dentist...). But Dr. O'Niel is a good dentist and I'd give him a referral if someone needed one.
