Excellent

Dr. Shaw saved my son’s teeth. Another dentist wanted to put my son in the hospital. Dr. Shaw said she would try to do the fillings in the office. Not only did she fix his teeth, my son can’t wait to go to the dentist again. My wife and I had a bet that my son wouldn’t go back, but he did, and came out smiling.

In Quickly

If you need a dentist for your children, Dr. Rachelle Shaw office will see you fast. I called other offices and could not get in for weeks. When we went to our appointment everyone was as nice as the person who answered the phone. What a relief!

Thank God for Dr. Shaw

PARENTS: PLEASE READ & LEARN FROM MY MISTAKE BEFORE TAKING YOUR KIDS TO ANYONE OTHER THAN DR. SHAW! Unfortunately, I made the mistake of taking my daughter to a different, so-called “pediatric” dentist here in town before taking her to Dr. Rachelle Shaw. Did you know that a lot of the kids dental offices in town are just regular dentists with no special training to work with children? Thank God I found Dr. Shaw! The dentist I took my daughter to before seeing Dr. Shaw wanted to pull out 4 of her teeth and fill all the others with silver fillings. He had absolutely no skills with children whatsoever! I went to Dr. Shaw for a second opinion after hearing such great things about her and reading all her good reviews online. She explained that it’s important to try to save teeth, rather than just pull them out. For the fillings, fewer than the last scam-artist dentist said, Dr. Shaw made my daughter comfortable and did not put any silver in her mouth. Needless to say, I had my daughter’s re

My Children LOVE Dr. Shaw!

My kids have seen Dr. Shaw for years (my oldest is 16 and she's been going since she was 2). We have never had a bad experience. I took my youngest daughter in yesterday morning for a filling and to have a baby tooth pulled. Everything went perfectly!I am extremely impressed! Dr. Shaw had to give my daughter a shot so that she would be numb for the filling BUT, she was soooooo gentle (and maybe a little sneaky) that my daughter had no idea she'd gotten a shot. She had a big smile on her face afterward and her tooth in an adorable "magic chest" for the Tooth Fairy. My daughter insisted to me that she hadn't had a shot(never mind that her mouth was NUMB! Lol!) I wish Dr. Shaw could be my dentist too instead of only treating children. She is AMAZING! I don't know if Dr. Shaw ever reads these reviews, but just in case she does, I want to say "Keep Up The Fantastic Work and Thank You From The Bottom of My Heart!!!"

awful dentist

My daughter had both a cleaning and some fillings (6) done at Dr. Shaw's office. The cleaning was terrific, and Dr. Shaw assured me that the return appointment would be supportive and gentle. Since my daughter has had a bad experience with a dentist before, this was a relief. Unfortunately, Dr. Shaw was a nightmare for her. She did not numb the teeth before filling, so my daughter felt every moment of the drill. When my daughter asked to stop and do the other teeth later, she was ignored, Dr. Shaw plowed on with the work. My daughter left the dentist trembling and crying, which is not like her at all.We will never return to this dentist.
