I've always heard of a root canal as being the benchmark for terrible experiences. You know, "l'd…read morerather have a root canal than do xyz." Well I saw Dr. Patmore today for a root canal procedure that my regular dentist couldn't do thanks to some complications. She put me at ease immediately. I could have fallen asleep had it not been for my phone going off constantly with work emails. Seriously, I've had more unpleasant haircuts. I don't aspire to need more root canals, but I wouldn't hesitate to return here if and when the situation arises again.

I just wanted to let everyone know that Dr.Patmore retired. I emailed her office to get a…read moreconsultation, and they called back and said a general dentist could do the consultation.

I've never been to a dentist where I barely felt a thing -- I didn't even notice the anesthesia being administered! The entire procedure was smooth, and best of all, I'm finally pain-free. Even the price was painless -- fair and reasonable. Highly recommend!

It is still holding and the tooth is healthy. When I needed another a couple of months ago, I went back. This time I didn't have my husband to hold my hand and I was terrified. She sat with me to understand my concerns then coordinated with my dentist. She did the root canal then, while I was still feeling no pain, my friend drove to to the dentist to get the crown impressions and everything else involving needles done. I don't remember a moment of discomfort. And, she's reasonable. Only place I would go for a root canal is Dr. Lawaty.

When I arrived I was made to wait I was told the doctor could not read the images from my dentist but I would be charged anyway + charged for new images When the doctor FINALLY came in I was informed this was only a consultation and NO PROCEDURE WOULD OCCUR although I had booked and waited for an EMERGENCY root canal that my surgeon has advised I need ASAP. This was not only an enormous waste of my valuable time and a huge disappointment, but my health is potentially compromised because this greedy doctor wanted me to pay for 2 visits instead of one. Despicable and unacceptable.

And got my root canal 10 days after that. Worked with my insurance and it was super inexpensive. Dr. Brennan definitely has a magic touch, I've had normal fillings that hurt worse than my procedure with him, which was my very first root canal ever. He asked how I was doing about every 4 or 5 minutes and was explaining everything he did along the way. The whole thing took about 40 minutes. Hoping I don't need another root canal in my life, but if I do, I will definitely go back to him.
