This dentist was downright cruel while giving me a filling. The 1st dose of painkiller wore off and the nerve in the tooth was FULLY sensitive, but he REFUSED to give me any more painkiller and continued drilling while KNOWING that I was experiencing a high level of pain. I was crying and almost got up out of the chair to leave the office before he could complete the job, but being new in Austin at the time, I didn't know another dentist to call in an emergency to complete his lousy work. I will never go to this dentist again and would never recommend him. Any dentist who REFUSES a 2nd dose of pain medication and who continues to drill into a tooth KNOWING that the patient is experiencing a LOT of pain shouldn't even be in the practice of dentistry. He not only didn't care at all, he actually projected an attitude that conveyed the message that I must somehow be "weak" and that I should just "deal with it!" This happened several years ago. Can't comment on whether he's changed his ways or not, but I certainly hope so. There was a lot of room for improvement!
