N/A
They deserve the 5 stars and MORE. I am high risk for covid and have several chronic illnesses. Going to the dentist where someone is in very close proximity to my nose, mouth, and eyes for an extended time is very nerve-racking. I stopped going to my previous dentist after she refused to wear an N95 saying level 3 masks were fine and they wouldn’t make any accommodation for me. I went into the science of the differences between different masks and their filter level, but it didn’t matter to her. Everyone is one illness, one accident away from becoming disabled or high risk themselves. People are immunocompromised especially after having multiple covid infections. People have loved ones who are elderly or high risk. The fact that healthcare facilities have become so callous & uncaring these days just continues to show what kind of world we’re living in where even health precautions/accommodations are politicized and refused. If you don’t care that covid is still circulating and don’t take any precautions, that’s your prerogative, but seeing healthcare workers who do still care and will try to make disabled patients safe & comfortable in such a vulnerable position is a rarity. I called so many dentists to see if they were still taking any precautions like wearing N95s or willing to, they all said no. I went several years without getting my teeth cleaned because of this. Then one day I decided to pick up my search again early this year and called Lake highlands dental. Not only do they offer early morning appointments, but the hygienist Misty and dentist Dr Good said they would accommodate me. I just got my 6 month follow up and they continued to maintain the same precautions. The cleaning itself is always so thorough and Misty is so kind and cool to talk to. I’m so grateful for Lake highlands dental 🙏♥️
