I have been a patient of Dr. Naidus for the lasr 8 years. He is professional, personable and thorough. About 4 years ago, my dental plan at work changed and he wasn't on the plan. So I went to the dentist the insurer recommended. The new dentist ws not onlly NOT friendly, but insisted I needed thousannds of dollars in work done. I went back to Dr. Naidus and explained what the other dentist said was necessary. I also explained that if he felt that the work was necessary, that I was more than happy to do it and I preferred that he do it.After a thorough exam and cleaning, he explained that the other work was NOT necessary and no need to proceed forward. Will continue to use this gem of a dentist!
