I have always been very comfortable and confident in Dr. Shields’s office, having, like so many other adults, suffered at the hands of an apparently uncaring dentist as a child. His skill is unsurpassed; he is very thorough in his explanation of everything he finds and plans to do, and the entire staff is warm, welcoming, and caring. Today they squeezed me in within half an hour of my dropping in unannounced with a toothache. I cannot recommend Dr. Shields, and his whole crew, highly enough!
