I continue to be extremely impressed by Dr. Martinez and his whole staff's professionalism. I'm one of those bad people who hadn't been to a dentist in 12 years, and I met Dr. Martinez when he allowed our group of filmmakers to use his new offices for a location shoot last year. In casual conversation I asked, "So who in the world wants to become a dentist?" He did! He shared that he'd been mentored at a young age by an established dentist who was interested in sharing his knowledge about the profession and his passion for it with young people. Now THAT'S a story of importance, one I really respect. It's part of what finally got me back into the chair after so long, even though I've known for some years I needed to go get some dental work done.
This office's system and their whole staff are very organized, efficient, with good chair-side manner and not too much unnecessary small talk. Their technology is impressive and they always explain what they are doing in terms that make sense, 'demystifying' the processes that I'm undergoing so I get to be an informed patient. I really like that.
My prior 'family dentist' (back in Ogden) who I'd last seen about a dozen years ago hurt me and had more or less wrecked my optimism about the profession. Now I'm excited about finally taking better care of my teeth and getting this series of work done by total pros. Martinez also teaches at the U of U Dental College and I totally respect that as well- This is a professional who is dedicated to a lifetime of teaching and learning, who believes in giving great service and care to his customers. Highly recommend.
