The worst dentist Ive ever been. The dentist complained about Sunday call and charged me $450 for removing a tooth. He didnt prescribe anything for infection and I got dental abscess.

My review is somewhat delayed, had a broken tooth on Easter Saturday while on Holiday with no where to go. I managed to get an emergency appointment with the help of Jane (I think it was) and saw Dr Fang.
Considering my predicament, It was the most painless dental treatment I have ever experienced. Great work, thank you.

I have never in my life received such fantastic service like I did today at The Country Dentist. I was in the area just for the weekend but had an emergency, and the lengths they went to, to help me was exceptional. They definitely bring new meaning to the phrase "going the extra mile."
