I was diagnosed by my general dentist to seek an endodontist to see if I need a root canal or not based on his assessment. I was referred to Dr. Polk from a friend because of Dr. Polk's professionalism, precision, and most importantly how careful and smooth his techniques are when conducting a root canal---most everyone's feared dental procedure. Upon assessment and based on my CT scan, he showed me my tooth's condition and whether a root canal was needed or not. He explained to me that the issue at hand doesn't require a root canal. Some basic maintenance and steps he provided was all I needed to do. Some endodontist would rather consider conducting a root canal so they can make money on a procedure a patient may not need. To date, I have no issues with that tooth. Everything is fine and healthy, so I am glad Dr. Polk provided his assessment based on what is best for me. This helped build the trust I needed with him. I've since referred several people to see Dr. Polk and they had root canals done because of the pain they felt after seeing their general dentist. They've all come out very pleased with his professionalism, and especially with how smooth and precise his procedures were done; which caused no pain and it all went by so smoothly compared to other endodontists they've seen in the past. I no longer fear this procedure knowing I have Dr. Polk there for me. Others I've referred feel the same as well. James

I'm at a loss for words to express the incredible experience we had today. Our visit was the result of a referral from my dentist, Dr. Emigh, and we entered under less-than-ideal circumstances. From the moment we stepped through the door, the front office greeted us with warmth and friendliness, setting the tone for what was an unexpectedly positive experience. Tran, in particular, was a beacon of support, truly our guardian angel during this visit. Faced with the need for an emergency root canal and grappling with considerable pain, I found solace in the compassion and efficiency of the team. Their empathy was palpable, matched only by their swift response to my situation. Dr. Polk, alongside his assistants Janis and Janet, were nothing short of phenomenal. Their kindness, gentleness, and professionalism made what could have been an unpleasant procedure surprisingly pleasant. It's hard to believe I'm saying this, but it was, without a doubt, the most delightful root canal experience one could have. My sincere thanks to everyone involved. Your exceptional care has left me profoundly grateful. Cori

Dr. Polk and Jasmine are so awesome! I highly recommend them to anyone needing a root canal. I was in an out in an hour! They were very nice and calm and made me feel completely comfortable. The entire office runs really well and efficient. I am dentist phobic so this procedure was a big deal for me!

Everyone was helpful. The front desk clerk helped with check in. Bianca was so professional and went the extra mile to get me a blanket. Amazingly efficient. The checkout staff couldn’t be more helpful. Dr. Polk explained everything and worked while taking my well being into account. Thank you all!!
