I never even got to the tooth cleaning because when I told Dr. Niesen that the ultrasonic scaling was too stressful for me and I preferred hand scaling, I got an haughty and angry lecture from him about how he was the dentist and he would tell me how things were done, not the other way around. He refused to clean my teeth and when I told him I had never been treated so rudely by any healthcare practitioner, he dismissed me.

This office has really changed in the past several years. The new receptionist comes on strong, is a bit snippy and dismissive while not being terribly organized. The new hygienist means well but is very rough when tooth cleaning. Dr. Niesen is technically admirable but doesn't really listen well. Increasingly you get the feeling the office is mainly a business more than health care.
