My family and I have been a patient of Dr. Mary, and her late brother, Dr Frank, for many years. She is an excellent dentist and had also become a great friend to the family over the years. Every visit, besides getting our teeth cleaned we also catch up and talk like old friends, rather than dentist and patient. We highly recommend her services of you're in need of a dentist who does her very best to get the job done while ensuring the patients comfort. Dr Mary regularly takes the time to explain the procedure, which really helped when I was younger to alleviate my anxiety about new procedures.
