  • (Translated by Google) The best dentist I've ever had. A great doctor is not just a dentist, he's a human being. The welcome from the very first moment I walk in. The humane and warm treatment, starting with the doctor and then the two young women who assist him, creates a healthy and non-discriminatory environment; he's not racist. He's a doctor with a very professional and humane approach, very intelligent and highly capable in what he does. But he doesn't just charge and do the work; he also cares about the patient. I thank God for this dentist. 🙏🙏🙏
