I was impressed by how much time he took to talk through everything with me and that he took account of my views in deciding how much work to do. I felt he knew what he was doing and that I could trust him. I have only had minor work done so far, but it is certainly successful. This was building up a back tooth. Another dentist had said it should be capped. Dr Hanrahan made the same suggestion, but as I had no insurance for this we discussed this and it was my choice to settle for a large filling instead. There was no pain, the staff were very nice and they were helpful in dealing with my insurance. He did a lot of checking at my first check up, including basic periodontal checking, which I had not always seen dentists do. He recommended a periodontist and spoke quite frankly about the need to be sure I had a good one. I felt he was not someone who would do unnecessary work... a relief after my discovery that some dentists do completely unnecessary fillings in perfectly good teeth. I certainly recommend him.
