We thought Dr Alissa was lovely at first. When my daughter needed some more serious work done, we got a ridiculous estimate that included sedating my 11 year old child. We went for a second opinion and were told that with proper pain management, dental work shouldn't hurt. This doctor did the work with no pain to my daughter and saved us 3 thousand dollars. We had cancelled our tentative appointment with Dr Alissa with over 24 hours notice, as soon as we received the second opinion. We then received a letter from Dr A stating that our relationship was "no longer beneficial" and she would no longer treat my child. Crazy!
