I had the opposite reaction to the review by Linnea. I have seen Dr. O'Connor over the last three years for preventive care, cleaning, repairing filings, etc. I found her gentle, attentive and professional. I have a friend and his wife who do not have insurance. I told them about her care and that the rates are so reasonable. They were impressed and are still clients of Dr. O'Connor. In July, I had to have a root canal repaired (it had been done by another dentist maybe 8 years ago). She referred me to a Comfort Dental specialist who was great. I have a hard time believing the accuracy of Linnea´s review. It seems so out of place from my experiences and those of my friends.

I went in last spring to get dental work from Dr. O'connor. I was told I had 5 cavities. I was quite surprised by that. I have never had more than 1 or 2 cavities when visiting a dentist. I believed the dentist, because she seemed like a nice person. I was not shown the x-rays or the location of the cavities, as I am accustomed to. Over the course of 2 visits, I had all my fillings drilled out and completely replaced. The total cost was $500. The first time the edge of my tooth was left very sharp, as if the filling did not reach the top of the drilled hole. I had to have it corrected. The second visit, the water sprayer pick was leaking all over my face and no one wiped the water off me. The dental assistant was very rough and seemed very unhappy in general. She was not paying attention and was resting the tools, stretching the side of my mouth in a very painful way, while staring at the ceiling. Once I got home and the numbing medicine wore off, I realized I could not bite down correctly, because one of the fillings were too high. I got back in the office the same day and they told me it looked fine. I had to show them that none of my teeth were touching because the filling was too high. They corrected it. Why didn't they check to see my bite was correct after the fillings were placed? A year later and I have pain in one of my teeth that were filled at this office, whenever I bite anything firm, like pizza crust etc. I have to not chew with that side of my mouth. I had no issues or pain with my teeth, prior to this. I had my two Children see Dr. O'Connor as well. I was told to go out to the waiting room while my children got their x-rays and that they would come get me, when x-rays were finished. They never came and got me. They brought the kids out when they were finished and told me I needed to make an appointment for them to get fillings. I said why do they have cavities? I was told they did. I asked if the dentist was going to talk to me at all, so they went and got her. She showed me a chart, showing they both had cavities. Again, I was never shown x-rays. I felt nervous about the office and how my fillings were done, so I scheduled the kids to have an appointment with another office. My son has been to the dentist twice since then, in the last year and has had additional x-rays and I have been told at both check ups, that he has no cavities. I was told he had 2 cavities, by this office. My daughter did have cavities. I feel like I was lied to about the amount of cavities I had and the amount of dental work that was needed for me. I feel like the quality of dental work was poor and that I am suffering for it. I would not recommend anyone see Dr. O'connor or let their kids be seen by her.
