PHIL: For a long time I didn't go to the dentist because I had this overwhelming fear of going to the dentist, and it was, looking back it was pretty irrational because now I go every three months, and I'm very happy when I come here. I really enjoy being here, but I had because of that long absence, had developed a lot of issues with my gum and recession in my gum areas, and that lead to a lot of problems. So what we've been doing is maintaining a lot of the work that I'd had done, and looking for ways to minimize any future problems. So I'm on a three-month cycle with it, and it's worked out very well, and I really look forward to coming here. I feel extremely fortunate that I'm his patient. I don't think that I've heard other people talk about their visits to dental offices, and it's entirely different. Here they've taken into a lot of consideration what's going on with the patients, and it's a more relaxed feel, and it doesn't have to be that assembly line feeling that you see so often with dental offices, or other types of offices. I have a lot of trust in Dr. Jelinek. First of all he's very professional when interacting with them, but he's also very personable as well, and that is very important because you don't want to feel that someone is just not listening to what may be going on in terms of your dental issues but also is taking an interest in you as well as a person. I recommend Dr. Jelinek because of the excellent care that I get here. He's very personable to have as a doctor, and you don't get that feeling that he is here just to look at your issues. It's very important that you do have those types of issues resolved, but it's the care that goes along with it, and that's part of building relationships, and feeling a little bit good about not only your dental health, but your mental health as well because it really takes a lot sometimes to get through the door and to come here to the dentist, but really I've kind of gotten over that over the years.
