I hadn't been to the dentist in years and was afraid to go. My sister is a patient of Dr. Abbott and she had the dentist office call me to setup an appointment. She knew if I had an appointment I wouldn't cancel it. I just never made the first step of calling myself. They contacted me and I was in the office within the next week. I had extensive dental work done last year and I can finally say I am no longer afraid to see the dentist. Dr. Abbott and his staff are wonderful. I would highly recommend them, especially to those who are afraid to go to the dentist!
