Some bad experiences in the distant past left me resistant to visiting dentists into my 40's, when I suddenly (over a couple months) broke two molars and lost a large molar filling. None were painful, but they all needed obvious attention which I was finally forced to obtain because of a pending foreign job assignment. After calling around I was referred to Dr. Woo, by another local dentist who was overbooked.
Dr. Woo runs a small practice but his treatment and manners are the best I have ever had in my 50 years. For the first time in my life I went through the examination, prep, drilling, and filling procedures with no pain whatsoever, and more importantly with no fear. Dr. Woo has an approach that is so soothing I nearly fell asleep in the chair **while he was drilling and adding fillings**. For someone like me this was really an amazing experience.
I had no insurance at the time so paid cash, and the prices seemed reasonable to me (about $1,500.00 total). I have remaining work to do, mostly caps on those broken molars, and Dr. Woo devised a plan and gave me a range of costs for various materials. I will definitely be seeing him again when the time arrives, and recommend him to anyone who's had a similar dentist-phobia.
