I'm a 27 year old out side of the dentist chair, and a 4 year old in the chair. I shake, cry, and and have a look of absolute terror on my face with any doctor or dentist I go near. I have Severe Latrophobia, so severe that it make me contort in fear and cry. Dr. Hirschberg and his assistant were very kind to me and did everything to make me as comfortable as possible. He told me I wouldn't feel more than a little pinch when the needle went in, I didn't feel a single thing(and I'm terrified of needles too). He was very kind and swift with his work. I felt as if I were in the chair for only 20 minutes and it was all over....and to make me laugh, he sprayed my hand with the air nozzle and I giggled. Never had a dentist with this much passion for working on teeth. After putting a nice filling in and shaping it perfectly, he polished it to make it look really nice. No one knew I even had a filling. His tools, office, and such are extremely clean and well kept. If I had a question or a request, such as wanting a mouth prop to keep my mouth open, the Dr. was very understanding and his assistant got it for me right away. After 14 years of being with my old dentist and fearing a change, I'm finally glad I did...and I have to admit, I love this dentist more than my old one! I highly recommend Union St. Dental. The other staff such as the hygienists and receptionists are very nice and polite as well.... 100% AAA+++ Thank you, can't wait to see you again(shocking for someone like me to say really) :)
