I am a 55-year-old who, despite an intense fear of dentists that often requires Xanax to manage, maintained regular dental visits throughout my life until the past five years. My dental phobia, which can lead to me passing out during appointments, has been a significant challenge. This fear, coupled with my extensive travels, has led me to experience a wide range of dental practices across the East and West Coasts.
After thorough research among over 20 dentists covered by my insurance, I was drawn to Dr. Jorgenson's office because of its glowing reviews. Initially hesitant due to the long wait for an appointment, I finally visited the office and was pleasantly surprised by the exceptional customer service from the moment I walked in. The staff greeted me by name and made me feel welcomed and guided throughout my visit.
The dental technician and Dr. Jorgenson himself were incredibly understanding and accommodating of my dental phobia. They went out of their way to introduce themselves, discuss my anxieties, and provide comforting options without any judgment. My experiences with the needle, which is my biggest fear, were handled with utmost patience and care, making me feel like the only patient in the office. Their empathy and understanding, including sharing personal phobias, helped ease my nerves significantly.
Overall, my experiences at this dental office have been outstanding, leading me to recommend them highly. Despite the initial long wait for an appointment, the quality of care and the attention to patient comfort are unparalleled. I've now attended four appointments in as many weeks, including exams, cleanings, and fillings, and can confidently say these visits have been the best dental experiences I've ever had.
Edit 3/15/24:
I relocated a few years ago, making it about an hour and 40-minute drive to my appointments. Despite the distance, the exceptional service and care provided by this office and Dr. Jorgenson make the journey entirely worth it. This office remains a fantastic choice for anyone with dental anxieties.
