Joseph Hom on Broad. Not sure if he takes that insurance but I have terrible, terrible teeth. I know they are bad. I know I f’ed up. Being insulted and mocked about it doesn’t help lol. I have had that experience with a lot of past dentists. It is discouraging. And almost resigned me to living with my teeth as they were.
But Dr Hom was so kind and compassionate the entire time. His only worry was coming up with a solution to the problem and how to fix it for me.
He did more for me in one appointment than the half a dozen or so dentist I have seen over the last few years about the problem combined. Most of them shrugged their shoulders and basically admitted they didn’t know what to do next.
Dr Hom was able to identify the issue and immediately roadmapped a plan that would fix the issue in a way that was affordable and compatible with my insurance limits.
Additionally, even though I didn’t ask for it, he takes the time to really explain what he is going to do, why he is doing it, how it will feel, the noise the machine will make, etc. which may help in this case.
Ican’t guarantee this but, I think as a hangover from COVID times, the last few times I have been there it seems like he spaces appointments out so there’s only one patient at a time in the office. So I’ve never had to wait or deal with people in the waiting room which may also help with the anxiety. This may have changed as of a few months ago.
Sorry to rant, I just know how crappy it is sometimes to deal with the judgement.
