WORST PEDIATRIC DENTIST!!! Stay away. Took our 6 yr old daughter to see Dr Mark. First visit the office manager was as rude as can be. Fine, I'm not there for the hospitality. Met Dr Mark and immediately I felt pressure to sedate my daughter for the filling even though she could not have been more cooperative during her check up, giggling and smiling the whole time. Came in for treatment the following week, and again sedation was pushed before she was even seen. I made it clear this was not an option to sedate (I can see Dr Mark is not happy with this). Treatment begins with gas and five minutes later a nurse brings my daughter to me who is upset because she was scared of the gas, as I'm soothing her, Dr Mark comes out to the waiting room to tell me he is not treating her. It's sedation or leave!!! What happened to patience, understanding, compassion and nurturing a child so they aren't afraid of the dentist?!?!?! Never, ever stepping foot in that office again. Run, don't walk!!!

About Front Desk: The one star if for the office manager who could not be more rude, ignorant or condescending, would give 5 stars to Janine, a lovely lady at the desk who was the only reason I didn't start crying right in the lobby after being treated so terribly.
