A friend that had seen how ill I had become started doing research and found an article regarding Dr. Golding for the Discovery channel. I met with Dr. Golding and from beginning I liked how positive and confident he was and how he carefully listened to me as I explained my symptoms. He did a CT scan on my first visit and was very confident he knew right away what the issue might be. We scheduled surgery and within 8 weeks of that surgery my symptoms were slowly getting better and he was able to schedule a second surgery to put in the implant posts, I just finished with my crowns this week and everything is perfect.
