What patients say
Vibe: professional
Overwhelmingly positive sentiment (7 of 8 five-star reviews) centered on Dr. O'Leary and Dr. Metty's genuine care, clinical skill, and willingness to provide emergency care. Patients consistently praise the empathetic, unhurried approach and conservative treatment recommendations. One significant detractor noted severely unprofessional front desk staff behavior that contradicts the otherwise caring practice culture.

- Conservative ethics—recommended partial dentures instead of full extraction for profit
- Same-day emergency response with Dr. O'Leary calling back within minutes on Sunday
- Relaxation-focused cleanings (patient's biometric ring detected nap-level relaxation)
- Veneers placed years ago still functional and maintained
