I've been going to Dr. Stokes for about 10 years. In the beginning, he was a great dentist. very professional, reliable, and took great care of me as i have had massive amounts of dental work done over the years. after moving to his new quite elaborate office on eastern his quality of work has took a turn for the worst. his office help is absolutely horrible. everytime i go into the office there is somebody new working at the front desk, at times it seems he doesn't even have a receptionist he just has his dental assistants doing the front office work which i dont think are even qualified to be his dental assistants. i've seen about three different hygenists in that office, none of which are good at what they do, and are rude and inconsiderate to the patients. the office just seems to be in chaos mode. dr. stokes just seems to be in la la land. I was in his office about 4 months ago for a severe tooth ache, and as i was telling him what was wrong, all he could talk about were these cards he hands out with math problems on them to "calm" you down and how its proven. It really is a shame i have nothing postive to say about dr. stokes, but he really just shouldnt be in this buisness anymore.
