I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Lebel and Haworth Dental.
I have always had major dental anxiety, to the point where I went almost 8-10 years without going to the dentist. I was genuinely terrified and had a very difficult relationship with dental care.
Then I met Dr. Lebel.
From the very beginning, he took the time to understand my anxiety and never made me feel embarrassed, judged, rushed, or uncomfortable. One thing that meant so much to me was that he would do my exam before my cleaning, which helped me feel reassured and comfortable before moving forward. He always takes the time to talk to me, explain what he is doing, answer my questions, and make sure I am okay.
I also have a unique situation because my dental insurance is out of state and I cannot use it at his office. I still choose to pay completely out of pocket because I trust Dr. Lebel that much. I could go somewhere closer to home and use my insurance, but I genuinely don't want to go anywhere else.
That is how much confidence I have in him.
What I appreciate most is that he treats me like a person, not just another patient sitting in a dental chair. He understands that dental anxiety is real, and he has never made me feel bad about it. His patience, kindness, compassion, and bedside manner have completely changed the way I feel about going to the dentist.
I also have a personal connection to his family, which is actually how I initially came to know of him, but my decision to continue seeing him has nothing to do with that. I continue to choose Dr. Lebel because of the trust he has earned from me as a patient.
If you are someone who is nervous, anxious, afraid of the dentist, or who has avoided dental care for years because of fear, I cannot recommend Dr. Lebel enough. If he can make someone like me feel comfortable enough to consistently come back to the dentist, that says everything.
I truly wish more people knew about him. He is an incredible dentist and an even better person, and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a dentist they can genuinely trust.
Thank you, Dr. Lebel, for making something that used to terrify me feel manageable. I am incredibly grateful I found you. read more
