My appointment with Dr. Strand occurred unexpectedly. While I was traveling, I became aware of a serious tooth abscess. I had learned the hard way that you have to do your homework and find out about a dentist's skill level before you let your teeth be worked on. I have also learned that even though your regular dentist is eager to perform root canal surgery, don't be fooled! You are taking a big risk if you don't go to a good endodontist. Being so far from home, the internet was my only hope for immediately finding someone highly skilled. My research revealed that Dr. Strand was in the top ranks of the profession, highly regarded by her dental colleagues, as well as having been part of the teaching staff for Oregon's excellent school of endodontics. Thankfully, she made herself available to treat me right away. As her patient, I was immediately put at ease by her obvious competence, state-of-the-art knowledge, and gentle, caring personality. Even though it was terrifying to have such a serious abscess, I know I couldn't have found better care anywhere, even at my home location. She is outstanding, and her office is organized, on time, comfortable and friendly. If you need dental surgery, she is the one to see!
