My spouse & I've been going to Assabet Dental for over 20 yrs, when was Dr. Poras' practice, then…read moreDr. Reddy, now Dr. Shaikh. I love, love Dr. S's dentist practice: waiting area is warm, calm & soothing, not clinical, super clean, timely appts, & accurate billing. I enjoy the half yearly visits to this dentist.
Dr. Shaikh's so personable, caring, a great dentist, efficient, skilled, strong & smart. There's a running theme in the way Dr. S manages her practice as it's run with long time, dedicated, kind employees.
Brandon, the hygienist, I give tons of praise to! He does our whole family's cleanings. He's patient, very dedicated to his craft, gentle, he gets all the junk out & is thorough. I have a small mouth, so chickens out there, he's very gentle. My oral hygiene improved after he started doing my cleanings, as I floss more. They r ok if I don't do X-rays every yr.
Prior to him, I had Phyllis do my cleanings for 15+ yrs, she was personal, kind and very thorough w cleanings.
Long term office staff, Kathy & Sherrie are top notch, just the best people...kind, patient, understanding, personable, & accurate.
We switched our kids from a pediatric dentistry practice down the street and our kids say the cleanings @ Assabet Dental are more thorough and the hygienists pay attention to you (and not to ea other and talk over you). Other practices advertise a lot, but don't treat you like a human as Assabet Dental does.
