I cannot say enough about how much I APPRECIATED Dr Ethan Duewer... squeezing me in the next day on a second opinion 4 day nerve pain, and diagnosing and treating my problem within 5 minutes of arriving. If you have ever had a tooth ache, you know how much I appreciated this!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I had a molar pulled. He called to check on me later that day. I can say I have had ZERO pain from that extraction! Very much worth the 1 hr drive. Looks like I found me a new dentist!
