Dr. Ramus is great -- not only a good dentist, but a very kind and patient man. I have difficult teeth and real problems with pain, but he always takes plenty of time, is very understanding and works really hard to solve problems. He stepped in after a number of prosthodontists refused to work on me and has never given up. His office staff is great, they are patient about payment (i.e., will wait for your insurance to respond) and will bill your insurance even though they are not on anyone's plan. The hygienists are also very patient and will work with you to make sure you are comfortable, including using numbing gels if needed. Dr. Ramus took the time to research dental material allergy testing and refer me to a lab so we could choose non-reactive materials for my fillings and crowns. Can't say enough good things about him.
