I would not recommend this dentist. Medically, I think he knows what he is doing. However, the office is a malpractice action waiting to happen. When I had my first exam, the dentist was more interested in the radio than me. He doesn't tell the patiently directly what is wrong. The secretary told me I had a cavity and had to come back in a month. A month later I come in, the dentist tells me that I was supposed to get a wisdom tooth pulled and I did not have a cavity. The secretary misread my chart, they admitted this is but did not apologize. Even though my wisdom tooth was supposed to be pulled a month ago and they told me I needed to get in pulled within the next 1-2 days, they then told me it would take 2 weeks to get a referral. My insurance co. said it only takes 2-4 days. The secretaries are also always fighting with each other (maybe that is why they misread my chart). The dentist also treats them badly in front of patients. Also, I heard them lie directly to patients. Once I heard them put a patient on hold, and tell each other that they had an appt. soon but decided they were going to tell the patient they did not have any appt. for 3 weeks.

I know this doctor: 4 months
