I really like Dr. Maruhashi and am loyal to him. I got new insurance for a while that did not cover him, and the dentist I went to caused me a lot of pain and refused to clean my teeth unless I had full x-rays (which I refused to do because I was 7 months pregnant). The effects of the filling I got there still hurts me. However, Dr. Maruhashi is sweet and compassionate, and if something hurts you, he backs off. I don't know of any dentist office that resembles a health spa or 5-star hotel, but the staff treat you well, the Dr. is gentle and kind, and his work fixes the problem and doesn't create more for later. I think he's wonderful and I highly recommend him!
