My late wife's journey with SinoNasal Undifferentiated Carcinoma (SNUC), and my subsequent journey as a grieving widower finding my way back to life.

World’s Greatest Dental Office!

Writing about people who have been so generous along the way just reminds me of our family dentist: Dr. "Tom", his wife Denise and the entire staff. Tom saw Robin more than any of her other healthcare practitioners saw her in June, July and August. Whenever we called with an issue the folks in the office would ensure she was seen as soon as possible. As her upper right gums began to increasingly bother her, Tom kept an eye on her teeth.

Last week when it appeared time to pull the upper right molar (it was floating around in her gums and no longer secure) he said to just state “when” and he would be available to do it. As it turned out, last Saturday was the right time for Robin and Dr. Tom showed up at the office at 8am to take care of her. Taking the tooth out Saturday gave her some relief from the pain in her mouth and cheek. We mentioned that Robin will need some other items (e.g. fluoride trays to treat her teeth during radiation) and again he said - anytime she's available he can be in the office.

Tom and his staff have always provided exceptional healthcare and all their efforts during this trying period have just propelled our opinion of them to a new, higher level!
