I was in dire need of a dentist, so I called a good friend of mine to get his recommendation. When it comes to referrals, I depend on word of mouth! Tony called Mike's office and May worked me into the schedule later that day, as I was in considerable pain. Upon my arrival, I filled out the necessary paperwork, and was taken into the inner sanctum to have my oral dilemna analyzed. After Karen got done inserting the Hubble telescope into my mouth to xray the offending chomper, Mike came in to see what he had to work with. He told me that I had 2 choices, root canal or extraction. I chose the latter of the two. He gave me a shot to numb the pain, and after that took effect, he gently exorcised the demon tooth. He gave me post removal instructions along with his home phone number in case a problem should develop. I left there feeling much better than when I walked in, and was very satisfied with his work. He called my house the next day to see how I was. He gets my highest recommendation
