Wow. These two dentists, the front staff, the dental assistance, they are all amazing. Truly. I deal with a lot of anxiety going to the dentist so I ve been putting it off for years and found myself in a place where I needed A LOT of work done. I went to, I kid you not, 4 dentists before coming here and those places were rude, judgy, uncomfortable, made me feel like I was a burden and basically made my anxiety like 100x worse because all they saw was someone who hadn t been to the dentist and how ridiculous that is and how I must not want my teeth then! (Seriously, one of the dentists, straight up asked me that. I couldn t believe it. OF COURSE I WANT MY FREAKIN TEETH) They could see how I had found myself in this place because of dentists like them. So finally when I got to this place and from the beginning, the receptionist was kind and funny and helpful and then the dental assistant was right away suuuuper kind and was actually like, I know it was hard to come in but you did it and that s pretty amazing and I m so glad you did and we are here if you need a break or some water or anything. And then the dentist, Dr. Hurlinman didn t run away or scold me when he saw my X-rays!!! He listened to me, he told me what the best course of action was, he was super chill, kind, funny, and most of all DIDN T make me feel like a bad person and didn t make me feel like I was a burden. Dr. Johnson also came and did a consult and was the ONLY dentist who ever was able to tell me what could be done about two teeth that I had some specific issues with and had seen a few specialists about. None of them have ever made me feel ridiculous or bad for my anxiety. NONE of the staff. In fact, they go above and beyond to help me feel as comfortable as possible.
I do not like going to the dentist. It is always a hard day when I have to go. But if I have to go, I wanna to go to this dentist. Thank you Dr. Hurlinman and Dr. Johnson and Sharon, and Robin, and the rest of the staff. I appreciate you more than you will ever know.
