I feel so fortunate to have Dr. Collins as a dentist. For years I despised going to the dentist because of several traumatic incidences, but with Dr. Collins, that fear is diminished. She is a very calming person and patiently explains to me every step as she is working on my teeth. I've never had any pain during procedures nor after ... not even soreness. I am so sold on Dr. Collins, that after I moved further away, I refused to get a new dentist. As long as I live within an hour of her office, I'll continue to be treated there because I've never encountered anyone quite like her.
