I'm updating my review I wrote in 2013. Back then I was treated by this Endodontist for a root canal that had developed an abscess at the end of the root. Through surgery Dr. Cook removed the abscess and all was well. This summer I started developing a tooth ache over the same tooth every time my sinuses acted up. On Labor Day weekend I was in agony. Come Tuesday morning the pain was completely gone. At my hygienist appointment in late September the hygienist took extra x-rays and did a thorough exam. She and the dentist that was at the practice that day decided there was no dental problem and that it must be my sinuses. In the beginning of December I once again was experiencing an excruciating tooth ache. My dentist, Dr. Renshaw, worked me in immediately. Sure enough the x-rays that day indicated I had an abscess above the root canal again. He prescribed antibiotics and made a referral to Dr. Cook. After our holiday vacation I had my appointment with Dr Cook. Dr. Cook is an excellent Endodontist and quite honest too. I said I was no longer having the toothache and he said that was because the abscess was draining. Upon examination and x-rays taken that day he indicated that his 30 years of experience tells him that redoing the root canal via surgery would not cure the problem. Although there was still a small amount of abscess the true problem was a crack in the root. Unfortunately, the cure is to have the tooth pulled and have my existing bridge redone. So I'm back to Dr. Renshaw to get a treatment plan. Thank you Dr. Cook for being honest about the true situation. 2023/ #11 read more

Many, many years ago I worked as a dental assistant and our office referred a lot of patients to Dr. Cook. Our patients always spoke very highly of the treatment they received in his office and I don't recall a single patient having problems after treatment. I left that field and never thought there would come a day when I, personally, was in need of a root canal. I was recently told that I needed a root canal on a second molar and I immediately remembered Dr. Cook. I called and was given an appointment three weeks later but I asked to be placed on a waiting list if anything else came open. Dr. Cook's office called just four days later to offer me an appointment that had opened up the next day. The staff was friendly and professional. I had barely finished filling out the health questionnaire when I was called back. Dr. Cook and his assistant were efficient and very concerned with my comfort. Treatment was completed in one appointment and, a hour later, I was out the door with the procedure completed. I would highly recommend Dr. Cook, not only from my own experience, but from the comments and satisfaction expressed by the many patients we referred to him over the years. read more
