McCarl Dental Group at Shipley’s Choice

Dr. Clayton and the entire staff were very friendly and accommodating through a challenging ordeal.
No one likes going to the dentist but my wife (the patient) is in a whole different category of fear/​hate/​resistance and avoidance due to a traumatically bad experience with another dentist in her past.
Saturday the 13^th in the afternoon… The day before Valentine’s … On a three day weekend for many people… She had a dental emergency, one that could not wait until Tuesday.
In a panic we called our (former) regular dentist and left messages and then began calling around to businesses that claim to be «emergency dentists.» Saying things of understanding emergency events don’t always happen during normal hours. And amazingly to me in the Baltimore Washington area there are places 7 days a week, 24 hours a day… That I can gat care for my dog having a dental emergency… But apparently the same is not true for people. (We even tried two different 1 – 800 referral services with no luck.)
Both the wife and I calling it turned out each of us had called and left messages with McCarl dental. She had called their Green Belt location and I had called Millersville. For all the calls made and messages left. Over 30. Two of the three that were returned were from McCarl group. From Dr. Clayton and his brother. And they were the only ones willing to come meet us for emergency appointment.
They took our dental insurance

I love Dr. Clayton he is like an angel. Seriously. My only and I stress only gripe is that they don’t take insurance. I don’t blame them. Theyre that good. They deserve the money they get. They will work with your insurance though to help cover some of the cost. I’ve also never had a bad experience here. They always make sure I’m calm and numb before they do anything. The nurses are great. They remember little things about me that I am surprised by. They are very good and personal with their patients. I never have a super long wait.
I’ve never gone to a dentist like this before. If you can afford it go there. You won’t be disappointed.
