I was so impressed with how Dr. Mestman treated my two sons that I began making my own appointments with her, and recently my husband switched to her practice as well. We're all crazy about her! She is knowledgeable and stays current with all new developments in dentistry. She takes plenty of time to explain procedures and to educate us about new standards of care. She never "pushes" procedures, though she offers comprehensive care. She seems to remember everything we've chatted about, and treats her patients like extended family. She keeps children relaxed and entertained by telling stories and singing songs, wearing decorated masks and headband "ears" while working in their mouths with flavored toothpaste of their choice. It's a friendly happy place. The office is private and intimate, not like a branch of a dental corporation. They validate for valet parking, and we've never waited longer than a couple of minutes to be called in from the waiting room. The one time Dr. Mestman was delayed with an emergency, her staff phoned to alert me before I came in!
