Case Description
It's been almost 15 years since I have seen a dentist. I know I need a lot of work and I'm embarrassed that I've let it go this far. I'm having a hard time making the move to pick a dentist and to call to make an appointment. I, for sure, have a phobia. Is there a dentist out there that specializes in patients that have extreme fear and embarassment? How do I know who to go to?

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

Hello. While there is no specialty for phobias I am very compassionate; I will not embarass or belittle you in any way. I invite you to read my reviews on this site. If you are then still not convinced I will do a free consultation to see if we "click". I am certain that we will.Dr Robert Girschek781-899-3700

There is no need to feel embarassed. There are a lot of people with the same phobia and embarassment issues. Be proud that you have taken the first step, some never get that far. We have treated a lot of patients in our office with phobias. The first step would be to come in and meet the dentist, Dr. Brother. See if you feel comfortable in our office and that you connect with our doctor. We do offer nitrous and sedation dentistry, so when you had work done, you would be comfortable. Give us a call at 781-674-9995, and we will set up a time for you to check out the office. Very easy visit - no pressure.
