Dr. Claudia was referred to me by friends, and I have referred her to friends. She is pro-nursing, very gentle and calm. However, what has come up with a few of us is that she gets rattled by difficult situations. She actually only partially extracted my 5 year old's tooth! She did not believe that he was not numb, though he was extremely distressed and crying. She then explained that there was nothing she could do and that she had to catch a plane. We were left with a broken bloody tooth, still in it's socket. We are switching dentists because my son is now very anxious about her office. She recommended general sedation for his next filling. She does not believe his nervousness is tied to the unsucessfull extraction. However, he had three fillings previously without a problem. So, if your child has no cavities or serious problems, she's a gem. Otherwise, she may not be for you.
