Licking dental office I understood that this was a dentist I had been looking for many years. My implant dentist who recommended Dr.Licking simply told me: My parents go to Dr. Licking. ? I expected to see a good doctor. But I did not expect to see such a great doctor. I am 72 years old with an advanced gum disease and advanced bone loss. I have seen many very prestigious doctors in Palo Alto, Los Altos, Redwood City, etc. with beautiful offices, charming young receptionists, but I was not happy with their work despite their very high charges. Amazingly, first time in my live I met a dentist who has had met all my criteria I dreamed of. Dr. Licking made me crowns and bridge, which fitted me from the first try. I felt as they were my own teeth.I want to emphasize that since bone problems usually I would go to a doctor 5-6 times for adjustments, especially for the bite since new crowns or bridge on one side of the jaw brings new problems to teeth of thother side. So, I would say that nobody before made me happy.With Dr. Licking it took only two appointments for crowns or bridge; there were no corrections whatsoever. He is really a Master!!!His hygienist Lena (don¿t know her last name) also does an excellent work, much, much better than I had in other dental offices.Besides, the staff is very friendly and polite. They keep appointments right in time. I could wait no more than 5 minutes.Judy, their manager, is an amazingly nice person. She gives very reasonable prices; very friendly, very sensitive to people needs, and gives discount for low-income people. Once I fell down on the ground far away from the office, but she saw me through the window and right away rushed to me and helped a lot. Many thanks to you, Dr. Licking, and to your staff.I believe that many credits for such a nice atmosphere go to you. Galina KniajerMarch, 2009  (Hide)
