My son's first visit was when he is 2 years old. We both went in together for his oral exam. But on his next visit (he was 3 yrs old), i was not allowed to accompany him. It felt wrong because my son was still a minor and i don't want to leave him alone with total stranger and me not knowing what they will be doing. Their office did not notify me first hand what things needs to be done with my son's teeth. I was expecting them to tell me first the procedure so if i have questions or concerns i can bring it up right away but no they just proceeded without notifying me. I will not recommend this to my friends if this is how their office operate. As a mother safety of my children comes first. So i hope Dr. Alvarez can understand my point of view. Her view is that work for them is easy if parents are not around with their children.
