I was a patient of Dr. John Mayhew in the early 80's and immediately took to the sense of comfort I felt rather quickly. I was maybe 8 y.o. and wasn't to "hip" having a stranger sticking sharp instruments into my mouth but he did what was needed to be done with calmness and grace while distracting me with a story here and there. When my 1st appointment was finished, I knew I could trust him and he was "my guy".
Sadly came the day Dr. Mayhew had to step away from Dentistry to enjoy life with the 1 person who'd been not just his wife but also his assistant for so many years (Mrs. Mayhew) . Instead of "ghosting" patients, we were all left covered fore another Mayhew would pick up right where they left off and her name is Dr. Emily and as the old saying goes "she didn't fall far from the tree"
Let's add Dr. Smith "Emily's husband" into the mold and it's as if nothing changed from 1 generation to the next. Still precise and comforting work being done with honesty and care.
They've worked on my teeth for almost 50 years and I've had no complaints ! I don't think anyone who makes them their dentist will have any either..
THANK YOU Emily,Ted and crew for continuing to take the "agony" of going to the Dentist away.
