I had a root canal performed by Dr. Willey two years ago. I was very apprehensive about going in. Dr. Willey made the experience very tolerable and he is without a doubt one of the best in his field. My extremely pain-ofobic wife has required two root canals. She found Dr. Willey very pleasant and extremely sensitive to her pain tolerance. She is going in for her second root canal in September. Had her first experience been unpleasant she would not be returning. Even though his cost is a little higher than other endodontists, we both recommend Dr. Willey highly. However, as good as Dr. Willey is, and as fun the root canal was, I still opt to by brush my teeth more frequently and hopefully avoid the need for another root canal. It is just comforting to know that if in the event I need the procedure again their is an expert nearby that genuinely cares about his patients comfort.
