I had never had to see an Endodontist before so was worried and somewhat filled with anxiety when I first went. I've just completed my 3rd visit in 2 months to have 2 different root canals and all I can say is that all my fears and worries completely disappeared after my first visit. My treatment was not without pain and some complications but none that wasn't normal in certain patients. He is very good about answering questions and seems to anticipate any possible problems with the prescriptions he sends you home with. His front of office staff are amazing as well ... incredibly caring, efficient, and helpful.
