No explanation, no reason. This was almost a year after I severed all association from them. I'm going tomorrow (if they're choosing to abide by their posted business hours) to see what explanation FPD has for me. This place is a quagmire. Don't step in it. (Stopped in [10/14/24] and spoke with a friendly office manager who negated the $112 invoice and gave me a printout assuring me of my zero balance. I'm glad to be loose of them.)

My experience here was 100 times better than any other dentist I've seen in St. Louis.

Voted best in St. Louis by her peers...this is absolutely legit. A treasure to the region and many of the "other guys" could learn a lot from these folks. The only surprise was super reasonable pricing for such quality work. Oh yeah, despite being the "champ" of the Gateway city, absolutely no ego which is very refreshing. My only regret was that I didn't come to this doctor sooner.

The smells of the office, the pain, the condescending remarks about my teeth, the anxiety about where the money will come from. Anything and everything about even considering visiting a dentist makes me want to take a double dose of xanax. After visiting a few dentist with no such luck in the past 2 years I asked my doctor who I trust immensely if he had any recommendations and he gave me Dr. Zora Hanko's name/number. It took me a few days to finally call but when I did I was surprised that i was almost immediately put at ease by the incredibly kind receptionist. I briefly told her my concerns and the level of anxiety I generally have and she actually listened, took note and genuinely seemed to care. This morning I woke up 4 hours before my appointment due to an already increased build up of anxiety. It turns out none of this anxiety was necessary. After sitting in the waiting room for only about 5 minutes I was brought back to the exam room by the dental hygienist. I can not remember her name but she was so sweet and kind. Then Dr. Hanko came in and since she knew how anxious I was, instead of getting straight to work she sat down next to the chair and asked me to tell her about my self, what my concerns with my teeth are and what she could do to make my appointments easier. When I was giving her my information she listened, asked questions when necessary and not once made me feel judged. Then she asked if she could take a look in my mouth. Part way through her examining my teeth I realized for the first time ever I was sitting in a dentist chair and NOT shaking with anxiety. I left the appointment with a plan of action for my crazy teeth, another appointment and absolutely no anxiety in sight. Best. Feeling. Ever.

I hate going for a filling and having my face numb for the rest of the day, so she uses a special anesthetic on me that wears off just about the time I'm leaving the office. Sometimes she is able to numb just the single tooth or area that she's going to work on. It's great. I have been seeing her for many years now, and since I became chronically ill, she has been very empathetic, accommodating to my needs, and really goes the extra mile to make it possible for me to keep up with my dental care even though it's difficult for me to leave the house. (No, she doesn't make house calls, darn). I have never been particularly anxious about seeing a dentist but that is especially true of her and all her staff. I love Dr. Hanko! So relaxing!
