Dr. Nolan’s Personal Philosophy on Dental Care

I have now been practicing since 1982. A lot has changed over the past 20 years. Today, I have the kind of dental practice, which I would have liked to have had when I began. I make people feel good. I see people who have dental problems and when I am finished with their treatments, they are happy. “I make a difference in people’s lives.” The most important thing I have learned over the years is that I “listen” to what people say. Many patients say to me that their previous dentist did not hear what they said.

It took me many years to shape my practice to the way it is today. I used to let the insurance companies tell me what I could and could not do. I participated with many insurance company plans and diagnosed patients based on their policies and not their true dental needs and desires. Now, the patient and I decide what type of dentistry needs to be done, not the insurance company. It is a true pleasure to be able to practice dentistry and give the level of service that I would expect when I go to a medical office. I diagnose the patients mouth the way I would diagnose my own family. I will tell you everything about your treatment, make my recommendations and then let you decide what services you would like performed. You will not feel like any treatment is being “pushed on you”.

I treat people the way people want to be treated. I give them superior service with good customer relations. I talk to every patient and ask them what they want in a dentist. I try to make this office so that is not like an ordinary dental office. From the first telephone call to the end of the visit, you will always find staff members that are caring and highly trained in customer service. You will always feel welcome, never rushed, and always important. You will feel the energy throughout this office. You will feel the warmth and caring. “I love what I do,” says Dr. Nolan.

We offer beverages in the reception area along with a private telephone for calling, computers for your usage and a relaxed atmosphere for your comfort.
