Dr Hendler was remarkable he was professional addressed my fears put me at ease, I would go to him for the rest of my life if he was available. I have a serious fear of the dentist and he was just unbelievably good at putting me at ease. For maybe the third time in my life I wasn't fearful

Their concern was clearly evident. They wanted me to have the correct information, presented is such a way that would lead to positive discussion and plan.

The dental hygienist was very competent and caring and took me back promptly. She had information from Dr Hemler but I did not see him on this visit. The hygienist did have a question and had to ask a NP about a problem she had found. Very processional.
