Typically in most dental offices, we don't spend a lot of time with the dentist unless we have issues. This is true here. But if you have a dental emergency, Dr. Cawley is the person to call. I can't say enough about how he spent time after hours to take care of me.

Finding a new dentist when you move is important. Herres Dental (HD) is now our home for dental…read morecare. My sons and myself go there for our cleanings and such. It's very close to home which is a big plus for me. HD is a beautiful office and has a nice waiting room. It has a TV but it only has photos streaming on it--very relaxing. Toys for all ages to help with the wait and coffee (Keurig), tea and water bottles. The dentist uses all of the newest technology and keeps up with the recent techniques. I had a small hole in my tooth due to grinding in my sleep. Because of that, I needed my very first filling. I was nervous about it and thought I would need a needle to numb the area. However, whatever technique he used, he didn't need to use a needle and the whole process was pain free. HD uses emails and text messages for appointments and conformation. The only thing I don't like is that they are closed on Fridays--well, they are open but they do surgeries. So, if you need to make an appointment or cancel an upcoming one, you have to wait until Monday. I *do* like the fact that they have evening appointments on Wednesdays. We've all been very happy with HD and with no issues.

(Original review from Google Maps on January 20, 2017.)…read more Having recently moved to the area, a friend recommended Herres Dental as a place who could understand my history of bad experiences with various dentists, working with me to address anxiety I had "in the chair" while patiently tailoring each visit to my level of comfort (including breaks during treatment, constant awareness of my anxiety level, and a willingness to always relinquish control to me, as the patient). I'm sorry to say that I did not find these things here. At my initial visit, they seemed to understand my past negative experiences and anxiety that made it very difficult to even walk through the door and sit in the chair. This was reassuring. At this same visit, I was told that I needed moderate work to repair several older fillings along with gum grafts in several places. (I don't dispute their diagnosis since I realize Dr. Herres was being as comprehensive as possible.) This news left me feeling discouraged, anxious, and fearing the work needing done. I was very anxious driving to the appointment to have my first two fillings repaired; thankfully, they did offer Nitrous Oxide to ease my anxiety, though I was so worked up that the Nitrous ended up having little to no effect at all. (My heart rate was very elevated based on the EKG machine they had me hooked up to, skyrocketing at various times before and after they began.) Early on, I noticed that Dr. Herres and his staff were either trying to stay on schedule for the day, or they were already behind. They were waiting on my readiness me to begin, as I showed no signs of "calming down" at all, evident by my heart rate and general state. Finally, I gave the signal for them to start. It took every ounce of effort within me to avoid becoming overwhelmed by my anxiety during the procedure; this created a sense that I was microseconds away from gagging or being choked (a common response for those who suffer from severe dental anxiety). As we were nearing the end of the procedure, I could no longer hold it together. I gagged repeatedly, coughing, and had to sit up. Because we were in the "filling" phase of the procedure, he had told me previously that we would not be able to take breaks any longer. Because I had forcibly taken a break, I knew I had just ruined the work Dr. Herres had done so far. I felt terrible, from shame over my inability to hold it together, and for so greatly derailing the work he had done. Shaking my head and saying, "I'm so sorry, I just ruined all of that, didn't I?" Dr. Herres responded with, "yeah, you did. We have to start all over." Dr. Herres' response seemed to communicate his lack of awareness as to how his patient was truly doing in the chair (the heart rate monitor indicated this clearly at various times), his insistence to continue even as I showed signs of panic, and his words of frustrated exasperation to me after I struggled so much that I gagged and had to sit up to recover. I recognize the difficulty of having to go through a procedure like this with a making it far more difficult than usual. But the marks of a good healthcare provider are being able to "read" your patients' individual needs, levels of discomfort, and overall state, as well as being able to stop or make provisions for a different approach. If you suffer from dental anxiety, please find a different dental office. I don't doubt that Dr. Herres understands his patients, but he either grossly underestimated my situation or was in such a hurry to get through my procedure that compassion was lost. On the specific day that I was there, his ability to handle me, even in my self-induced, elevated, anxious state through fearing the procedure weeks in advance, was a clear indicator that he and his practice are not equipped to handle those with severe dental anxiety.

Terrible. Nothing except a money grab. They demanded a $100 deposit for a crown. I complained and…read morethey knocked it down to $50. I was told if I missed an appointment, they would charge $75, Today they tried to charge me $150 but when I told her that is not what they told me she charged me $75. Why do I have to haggle? I left some special toothpaste on the counter by accident. No one ever called me to tell me I left it there. Total Joke! They quoted me $1200 for 2 crowns. Talked to a new dentist today, she saw my xrays and doesn't think I need a crown at all! The receptionist speaks barely English. Avoid this place at all costs. There are like 40 booths and you are just a number. Horrible!
