I was with this office for the whole week. I had late-canceled on them before due to life events and was determined to make it up to them. Dr. Shibilski gave me another chance and I had a WONDERFUL week. Because of said life events, I needed some peace and kindness in my life and both doctors delivered. Dr. Shibilski's jam is root canals and aesthetics. I had the privilege to assist her for both. I'm an amateur at RCT and she talked and walked me through it--so patient and kind. I worked more with Dr. Unkel and he has admirable chair-side manner and was so patient helping me find my way. Both of their work is conservative, care-based, and extremely thorough. The #7 and #8 composites done by Dr. S...I have been assisting for over a decade and the care she took blending and matching shades, she's an artist. Stephanie, the hygienist is so nice to work with and she is extremely helpful. I have been to so many offices where the hygienists don't know much on the doctors side. She's been there 5 years and patients love her. Can't wait to return next week and learn more from this power couple.
