There are things in life we just do not like doing and dental work seems to be one of those things…read morefor most people..That said, I would fathom that its mainly due to the pain one is already in, or the perceived pain you might end up in, or plainly put, maybe its the needles.
For me, it was getting rear ended where I managed to fracture teeth- my previous dentist at the time, had me on a treatment plan but for whatever reason was no longer reachable.
I was desperate. So I put the call out at work (I work for a medical company) and my awesome coworker Eddie Brown said that I just needed to call her. So I did. (And since have recommended her numerous times, to friends at work!)
They werent able to get anything from the previous dentist either, but she was able to start me on a treatment plan. That will have been a year ago in May that I started with her. I raved all over Facebook for my experiences, and truly thought I had put one on Yelp til I realized today, that I had not.
Let me tell you the most amazing thing about the office first, they are detailed, to the core. They treat you like you are the only one there. They will work with you on schedules, they understand busy fast paced lifestyles. The assistants I have worked with, esp Brooklyn, are hardcore professional and friendly, she is always quick to smile and remembers you from the last time to the next. The desk staff (Kim and Jean, I think is her name) are sweet and friendly as well, and knows her stuff when it comes to various insurances and delays.
Dr Wright and the original owner as well have both treated me, and it was like being seen by older sisters who are not only going to tell you like it is, but she is going to make sure you are not in pain. And here is the most amazing thing, and it deserves CAPS, pun intended, YOU CANNOT FEEL HER NEEDLES. I realize thats raising the bar, but she is THAT good. I simply do not know why there are no ratings for her on Yelp but I am rectifying that today with this one. I trust her completely and the drs she has had to refer me out to (repair root canal work, and an unfortunate extraction) were hands down the best in Louisville, and yet, I could feel their needles...Multiple visits in, she hasnt wavered in her attention to detail or that amazing ability to not let you feel the needle, including in the roof of my mouth. Do not let your dental work hold you back if its a fear of needles, you will not feel hers. Tell her I sent you!
