I had a horrible experience as a child at the dentist office and it actually kept me from going to the dentist for many many years until I found Dr. Shay. he made my experience so comfortable and secure that I've been going to him for the last five years now, and I am no longer afraid. Even his staff gives me the same secure feeling. There are professional, nice and I always feel comfortable and no longer afraid. Best dental experience ever... I highly recommend Dr. Shay and his staff. If you're looking for a Awesome Dentist, Look No Further.
