I am a complete dental phobe and concerned about getting the novocaine shots. Typically, I hyperventilate, cry, etc. Dentist is aware but he's never seen me before so doesn't know how bad it is. I will be having gas and I surely hope it helps -- usually does not help much. I am nervous about upcoming root canal for this reason. I know he is a very good dentist so that's not the concern.

I will not recommend this dentist to anyone. Gave incredibly indecisive recommendations. When asked "what would you recommend for your family member", he couldn't provide a clear answer. Incredibly negative experience.

I was so nervous about the procedure I was going to have, but Dental assistant was extremely helpful and Dr. Sullivan also put my nerves at ease with his explanation of what he was going to and what the numbing process would look like.

He really listened to me. I did not have pain, just a sensation in my back molars. He knew that I probably didn't need a root canal, and shaved off a bit from one of my crowns. I haven't had the sensation in the back molars since then. I'm so glad he didn't go ahead with the root canal! It wouldn't have solved my problem.

In the pre-visit questionnaire, I said I had dental anxiety, but the provider never acknowledged it or attempted to mitigate it. The assistant tried to comfort me but it was too late since the procedure was in progress.

I don't think he was very clear as to exactly what he did do, while we were there. I was assuming he cleaned out the roots but he said the tooth wasn't savable and said I needed to get it pulled.

Dr. Sullivan was friendly, knowledgeable, and skillful. He talked through everything with us, valued our needs and opinions, and helped us feel comfortable with the course of treatment. This was the best experience I've ever had at a dental office, hands down!

I could not have been happier with my experience at this office. There was excellent communication with every person along the way. The skill of Dr Sullivan was apparent from his clear explanations of the procedure to the ease I felt throughout the procedure which seemed shorter than I had expected. I also barely felt any discomfort afterwards even with having taken only 2 Tylenols and needed no more. What good work you all do! (This is all coming from a person who has dental work apprehension to say the least)

He's very professional, did great work, and was surprisingly fast. He could explain a little more about the process as he goes along, since your mouth is innno position for you to ask anything, but you can tell he's "in the zone", which is a good thing if you can just trust the process and wait it out.

July 28, 2022
The dentist and I did not talk much. He talked about the procedure at the beginning and then he started the root canal. The process went well with no problems following the procedure.

I did not get break-down of what it would cost me. I did not have any deduction remaining on my dental coverage. I wanted to pay it without running it through insurance. The cost I got was $1,816 for less than 60 minutes of time at the clinic. I did not got a crown. The medical community does a "wallet biopsy" to see what they can charge. The better the insurance, the higher the fees. Medical/Dental fees are eviscerating the retiree's budget daily. My wife and I had $24,949 in medical/dental in 2021 (w/o any surgery) and we paid out-of-pocket total of $9,941. This is bad on a fixed income.

No fear, unlike the first time. Dr. Sullivan handled the first molar with patience and efficiency. Very friendly, and had a conversation with me about my care and treatment. Everyone in the office was there to facilitate my care and make me feel at ease. Dr. Sullivan handled both my tricky root canals flawlessly. While doing the second one, he paused the procedure to extract a 'tooth stone' that had formed in the pulp of the molar before continuing the procedure. Amazing.

Dr. Sullivan was really great. This was my first time seeing him and my first root canal and I was very nervous and scared. He explained everything really well and with visual aids, from the consultation through to the procedure. He was also good at letting me know how I was doing and how things were going. I only wish he would have given me time checks so I knew how long I still had to go. His assistant was awesome, too - she gave me tissues and rubbed my arm and gave me suggestions to help calm me down.

The staff and Dr. Sullivan were wonderful! The assistant asked what kind of music I wanted to listen to during the procedure bringing up Pandora and what they had available. Dr. Sullivan followed up with a phone call the next day to see how I was doing. I would highly recommend your practice.

Dr. Sullivan and his nurse/assistant explained what they were going to do throughout the procedure. This was very helpful in helping me remain calm. Additionally, prior to the root canal Dr. Sullivan explained tooth pain and how the nerves react in one's mouth. I appreciated that he knew I would understand, and I liked learning something new about teeth.

Exceptional treatment, had a root canal done on my back #1 molar. Dr. Sullivan found just the right spot for the anesthetic shots, which at other dentists have left me sore for days. This time when I went home and the anesthetic wore off I had no pain or soreness - didn't even need a Tylenol! Way to go Dr. Sullivan - informative, educational and all-around nice endodontist!!!

Dr. Sullivan did an excellent job explaining the procedure and his thinking for what he was planning to do. He had the diagnostic image available to show me exactly what the problem was and how he would treat it. I had many questions, and he patiently answered every one. I appreciated the "crash course" in endodontics I received. I felt not only assured that I was in good hands, but I knew what was happening at every step of the way. I left better educated about the procedure and about basic jaw anatomy.

Excellent treatment during root canal- no resting hands on my mouth/lips, hitting teeth with tools, etc. I appreciated the vocal "next steps" as he was performing work, and even reccomended his skill after I returned to my office. HOWEVER, within hours I developed a complication (Endodontic Flare-up) and he was resistant to acknowledge something might be wrong (IT WAS) and that perhaps a more serious painkiller or exam was necessary. It took 2 emergency after-hours phonecalls and a another call with the clinic the next morning to get another doctor to see me. It's troubling to be dismissed for a legitimate medical issue- especially when I have such personal experience- and where PAIN was being blatantly ignored and downplayed as "discomfort."
