A family member who feared dentists suggested Dr. Shea senior and I considered this to be a strong recommendation. He looks at you as a person first and a patient next. I am pleased with his care and treatments. He has filled cavities, repaired chips and done bridge work to my satisfaction. The only downside is the wait. Because he is willing to see patients with pain or other serious issues on short notice, a delay can occur. I would recommend Dr. Shea, senior.
The office staff is caring and attentive.
I have too little experience with Richard, junior and Brian (who share the office), to offer a recommendation.
About Hygienist: He does all his own cleanings. The hygenists set up the exam room.
