Simply wonderful. I found Dr. Alter in the yellow pages when I was a college student. I have never left. He is gentle, patient, charming, and above all, a phenomenal dentist. I have referrred several colleauges to him over the years and each has also become a devotee. I was bordeline dental phobic when I first went, and while I am stll pretty uncomfortable going in for any procedure and my mouth still has vivid memories of dental terror (from previous nightmare of a dentist), at least somewhere in my brain I know that a visit with Dr. Alter means that (a) the pain will be minimal, and (b) he will stop whatever he is doing if I ask him to, and (c) my teeth will be fixed. I could not reccomend him more highly.
