Vet clinic calls.
While I'm not referring to any local vet, has any one been bombarded with calls from vets calling for follow up visits? Last had my dog in to a...

Id be sad, but I'd rather be cautious and appreciate vaccinations for what they are. Human or animal vaccinations all have their place. People that think any vaccination is bad should really think about the benefits before saying no. http://youtu.be/lhk7-5 eBCrs
Russ N. replied:
Okay, I am in now way expert in clinical vet medicine. This is me backing off. http://vetmedicine.about.com/od/vaccinations/a/FALC_vacctiters.htmhttp://m.petmd.com/blogs/fullyvetted/2010/june/titering_or_vaccines-10182http://www.titertest.com/animals Not sure about credibility of this third one, but the basic consensus is that choosing not to vaccinate humans or animals is controversial. Animals because you can not guarantee the vaccination immunity is still present with the titre test. Basically vaccinations are the 100% way to form new immunities. And while there are side effects, it's better chances then not immunizing. http://youtu.be/lhk7-5 eBCrs

We go to Dartmouth Veterinary on Tacoma, and get a card each year or a phonecall reminding us to bring Cali in. But we don't mind, coz then we don't have to keep track and remember ourselves lol. Especially now that she has to have an annual check up to get the prescription for her Sentinel, and she needs a lepto shot each year as she goes fishing and geocaching a lot, and drinks from rivers etc.
Looking for a good dentist for my 9 year old. I recently spent $1300 for her to have an expander put in (no dental or medical coverage) and it keeps falling out. We deal...

Melissa B. replied:
My 9 year old just got one. Hers is able to be physically removed. Her moulders were not erupted enough for the one that has to stay in. We deal with Dr. Mccloud who has a office on Bridgewater and Halifax. She is fantastic.
Andrea B. replied:
PENHORN Dental!!!! Dr. Kiri is masterful with patients young and old. I went to Passage dental and omg they were absolutely useless with my son, they totally milked our dental plan, my son had a baby tooth lodged between two teeth. I spoke to him, prepared him for what to expect including the needle and they drew on the anticipation and worry of this extraction for weeks but having us come in every week for fluff and then when the dentist finally pulled his tooth she started by telling my son she was “sticking her finger into his gums” instead of the needle, well then my son was terrified thinking the dentist was cracked digging into his gums with her fingernails. It was a nightmare and we will never go back to Passage dental. Dr. Brian Kiri over at PENHORN Dental and his modern office with the latest technology and equipment and incredible staff were able to put our family at ease, not harassing us with calls or unnecessary visits and I recommend them highly.
Sarah M. replied:
Yikes, sorry you've had that experience. My daughter had an expander in for a year, no issues with it whatsoever (she now has braces). We go to Summit Dentistry in Bedford because they offer laser fillings (no needles) and are just awesome to deal with.

Ashley H. replied:
Dr.Ripley at Ocean Park Dental is apparently very good. I'd recommend my family Doctor but I don't think he's taking new patients. However there may be other doctors at his clinic that might be. Call Forrest Hills Medical at 435-5530 and ask if Dr. Pacis is taking new patients. I've seen her several times when my Doctor was on vacation as she is pretty good.
Kristin W. replied:
Mandy Blanchard, Dr. Emad Malak from Montebello Medical was the other doctor from the list. Have you heard anything about him?
Mandy B. replied:
I go to Dr. Sahar Aziz and I like her. I have heard from several that Dr. Pacis is good but routinely 45 plus minutes late.
Liz M. replied:
go to Rate your md.com and you can review patient comments on drs before deciding
Nadia B. replied:
I see Dr Entaifa at Medicine in Motion. I used to take our son to Dr Aziz at Montebello, until she failed to notice my son had pneumonia and not just a run of the mill cold (he'd been coughing for over a month, and lost 5 lbs in that time frame and she said he was still fine..) Took a pediatrician to diagnose him!

Where do you recommend taking kids for dentist appointments and when should I start taking her (based on your experiences)? Thanks!
Dawn F. replied:
Dr. Bowes at Penhorn Dental is amazing with my kids. We took both kids in when they were 3 for a cleaning and to see what it was all about. His hygienist is great too, let's the kids kind of control the first appointment so it lessens the fear of the new experience.

Dr Green at Super Store on Portland Street. I can tell you I have a big phobia of dentists and I shake like a leaf. She is so caring and gentle that I haven't looked past her chair. This is coming from someone who works in oral surgery. Yes I know it's that bad. Lol. But she is amazing.
