Sam Na, DDS has taken over the practice. I only had a cleaning and exam today, but I was impressed with his kindness and that he took time to talk with me and hear my concerns. He did the very thorough cleaning himself with a gentle hand. His exam was thorough and he explained his concerns well. Dr Na has about 7 years experience and impressive credentials. I will schedule follow up appts with him.
