How likely are you to recommend Dr. Forester?
I can not say enough good things about Dr Forester and his staff! My 4 year old wouldn't even open his mouth for the adult dentist we first went to but warned up the Dr Forester's office with no problem. He had 2 cavities filled and they did amazing! He recently had a fall with trauma to the teeth and they got us in right away! Such amazing place to take your kids!
