Great dentist. AMAZING hygenist!!
Monday, August 21, 2006
I inherited Dr. Shigihara. Or perhaps she actually inherited me. She took over Dr. Barney's practice after he decided to retire, spend time with his family, and give back to the community (by volunteering at Pike Place Market - what a guy!).
She's a little spendy and tricky to get in to see unless you book well in advance. She's a great listener and problem solver. She has never pushed me to have work done that I wasn't ready for.
The real gem in this joint is her staff - from the hygienists to the front desk. These folks are consistently cheery and helpful - the kind of folks who want to hear about your recent vacation or grandpa's illness.
I have the best hygienist, EVER! I won't even tell you her name. She's semi-retired and only works 2 days per week and I don't want to compete with you for appointments with her.
