I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Michael Stallings and his entire staff!
I was driving from Atlanta to St. Louis to visit family when, around 3:00 in the afternoon, a large piece of my FRONT TOOTH broke off. Needless to say, I had a bit of a meltdown! I was going to be in St. Louis for almost a week with several events planned, and the thought of spending that time with part of my front tooth missing was pretty upsetting.
I started calling dentists near my mother-in-law's home, but most offices were either closed, couldn't see me, or couldn't get me in for a few days...then I called Dr. Stallings' office.
From the moment they answered the phone, everyone was incredibly kind, friendly, and accommodating. Their office closed at 5:00, and because I was still driving in from Atlanta, the absolute earliest I could get there was 4:35. Without hesitation, they told me to come in and that they would take care of me.
I walked through the door at exactly 4:35, and they were ready and waiting. They immediately took X-rays, evaluated my tooth, and got to work repairing it--and it looks great!
What really touched me was realizing that the entire staff had stayed past closing to help someone they had never even met before. They could easily have told me to come back the next morning, but instead they went out of their way to make sure I didn't have to spend my visit worrying about a broken front tooth.
The professionalism and quality of care were outstanding, but the kindness and willingness to accommodate me during such a stressful situation meant even more. I am so incredibly grateful to Dr. Stallings and his entire staff. If I lived in St. Louis, I would absolutely want this to be my dental office. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dentist who not only does excellent work but genuinely cares about his patients.
Thank you all for staying late and saving my smile AND my week! read more
