I was informed the entire time that he would not remember any of this. It was a guarantee he wouldn't remember it. He remembered everything and felt everything. They didn't give him any time for the shot to kick in before he started drilling away at his teeth. My son screamed and cried the entire time that they were hurting him, and that he was feeling everything, for them to just reassure me that he wouldn't remember any of it and he was basically just over exaggerating. I called to speak with someone (Karen) She informed me that it's only a 50-50 chance that the medication would work, that is not at all what I was told. I told her if I knew that I would have just taken him to a dentist that puts them under. I was also told that the doctor doing the procedure was supposed to talk to me about the medication and he never did that. He came in asked how we were. Made sure I signed everything and then walked out. I also had no clue he was gonna be strapped down. He kept saying he couldn't breathe. Later he told me the strap was tight. He has asthma something they knew and I would assume would have been brought up. I'm so mad I didn't walk out as soon as I saw them doing that. They don't care about ur child. Just that paycheck. Go somewhere else.

He tells silly stories that makes children listen to him with wide-eyed wonder and for no extra charge, he even does MAGIC and the greatest anti-jokes ever!

Dr. Amy is the most amazing pediatric dentist in the area. We drive from Altamont (approximately…read more40 minutes) to her office in Clifton Park, passing by at least 3 or 4 other pediatric dentists on the way. My son was 4 years old when he had his first dentist appointment with a pediatric dentist in Latham. He was more excited about the full arcade in the waiting room than anything else...During the cleaning, he was diagnosed with four cavities. I was devastated, as we brushed his teeth daily and he has overall excellent hygiene. Although the dentist explained everything to us, it all felt rushed. There was a huge waiting room full of clients and they needed to keep going. They ushered us to the front desk where we were assigned to a receptionist. We were given an estimate for what they recommended and told us they would contact us to schedule the appointment. I tried to ask some basic questions, but they were too busy and there was noone who was available to answer them - they would have to call me back. They called and informed me that although his teeth needed care, an appointment wasn't available until almost five months from that point. Again, I tried to ask some basic questions but was told I would have to speak to someone in a different department, and I never received a return call. I decided to get a 2nd opinion (and eventually, a third!) The original dentist wanted to perform the fillings using general anesthesia in a hospital OR, which I thought was insane for a four year old with cavities in his baby teeth. After speaking with our pediatrician, who explained that the fillings were necessary because these were actually molars that would be in for another eight years and had potential to rot his adult teeth underneath, I pursued our next opinion. This time I chose another pediatric dentist that was closer to home. This dentist agreed with the diagnosis of cavities. They discussed doing the fillings under a "sedative cocktail" in a room in their office - minimal monitoring equipment and if there was an emergency who knows what would have happened. I had heard horror stories about things going wrong with these procedures, and decided this was not what I wanted for my son. He was nervous with this dentist, too. Finally, under the recommendation of my childhood dentist (Dr. Fountain from Burnt Hills) I was lucky enough to find Dr. Amy! From the minute I met her I felt at ease. She did agree with the diagnosis also, but opted to try nitrous oxide for the fillings first. She was gentle and calming for our son, who tends to be anxious. She totally put him at ease. Although the nitrous didn't end up working and we did pursue fillings under general anesthesia at Ellis Hospital - Dr. Amy was with us every step of the way. She is competent and has excellent bedside manner. The procedure went perfect and she was able to "fix" all of the damaged teeth. We continue to choose Dr. Amy for our routine care for our son and our young daughter. Her entire staff is wonderful and I cannot say enough about them. If you are searching for a Pediatric Dentist - choose Dr. Amy! You will not be disappointed!
