Dr. Loder is THE most thorough dentist I've ever been seen by (if you don't count my gransfather, when I was 5). Absolutely stellar chairside manner and inspires confidence every time. I'm not a high maintenance mouth so perhaps my experience is just too easy but I'd feel comfortable with him if I were to become less fortunate and need more sophisticated work done. Front office staff has always been pleasant and efficient, and I dread the day my hygienist, Rita, eventually retires and spends more time with her kids and grandkids. It's hard breaking in a new one that understands the subtle difference between being effective and thorough and inflicting misery. Rita has always made the experience... well, if not pleasant, at least not unpleasant. I was refrred to Dr. Loder's office years ago by my wife, who found him because he'd become the automatic recommendation for folks where she worked. It was a great call... and if he's still accepting new patients, you won't do better....
