The most anxious patient and the most understanding dentist ever. Dr. Levo is truly amazing and that is short of what he truly is. I am lost for words due to his amazing patience and the true understanding of how dentistry made me feel. I have avoided the dentist for a very long time due to two traumatic services I had with two different dentist, whom I will not name.
I walked in to this lovely office with my nerves almost jumping out of me. I was happy to know that the only treatment I would need is to eventually replace all my amalgam feelings. Carolyn, the awesome hygienist, calmed my anxiety down and reported every second she could to tell me that everything was ok and that I didn't really need any major treatment. She did my cleaning and had such an amazing ORA.
Then Dr. Levo was invited to my room so that we could chat about a broken filling I had. My anxiety spiked again. But boy, Dr. Levo's up beat energy sure did calm me down. His bed side manner is immaculate and you do feel welcomed to this lovely family practice he has. He informed me of the treatment I would need for the one broken filling and I proceed to accept treatment right then and there. He made time for me in his short schedule....What Dentist does that?....Dr Levo does.
I explained to him how I have trouble with getting numb and how I have had to be held down for treatment because I could feel each bits of treatment done to me in the past. Dr. Levo said that if at any point I did feel anything he would stop and we would transfer me to his other office to finish treatment which has nitrous. Again....What dentist does that?...DR. Levo, that's who. He gave my gums ample amount of time to get fully numbed. His Assistant coached me through while the numbing medicine did its thing. He took the time to explain everything as he worked on my mouth. Lest than 30 minutes later he was done. I walked out of his office saying," I have finally found my dentist. The one who can do all my treatment and my anxiety level can calm down quickly". He truly is God sent. And he is in the right practice. If you suffer from high anxiety, he is the dentist for you. He listens and does right by you.
Thank you Dr. Levo and Smile Haus Family. I'll be seeing you in a couple weeks to continue dental work. From one happy and less anxious patient, Liz. read more
