Both Dr. Petrush & Dr. Elek are among the top 3 dentists I've ever known, and that's been many! The staff is friendly & kind; very patient when I've been nervous. They take the time to chat like "normal" people, not like busy uncaring, "get 'em in, get 'em out" types. I never have to wait long in the waiting room for my turn. Equipment & tools seem to be the best, which includes nitrous, which & must have.
I've had a couple of emergencies over the years & I was always helped as soon as possible.
As for pain, Dr. P is super-considerate of the patient. He numbs the area before injecting & will add more anesthesia at the slightest wince from the patient. He doesn't try to rush through, saying, "Just breathe deeply, we're almost done" He makes sure that you are comfortable the entire time. Any stress or anxiety I've had has been my own & not a result of any treatment I've had there.
When a referral was necessary to handle some difficult crowns, even the specialist was good.
I'm now planning to have my 2 front crowns replaced & I have no doubt they'll be terriffic.
