After years of going to "downtown" dentists with posh offices and huge staffs and huge efforts to sell me things I didn't need, along with high costs, I felt I needed a dentist nearer my home that I could access easily by public transit, I checked with my insurer and found Dr. Butler. His office is 2 blocks from Ballston Metro. Tooth cleaning and checking are not relegated to a "hygiene technician" but done by the doctor himself along with any other needed dental services. He and Dr. David Hester have a small, reasonably priced, "plain vanilla" dental practice in an older medical building on Fairfax Dr. They provide all the dental services that my wife and I have needed over the past several years in a friendly and professional manner and in clean, comfortable surroundings. I have had a filling and some filling repair and a crown over the last 7 years. My wife and I both got to Dr Butler and require 3 cleanings annually and I am glad to pay for the one not covered by insurance. I have recommended several friends to their practice.
