I had the pleasure of seeing Dr. Kishter on one of my follow up visits. Dr Iyer was going to be out of town. She scheduled one of my post op appointments with him. He was quite kind and although it was a short visit. He was personable and did answer in detail the questions I had and assured me that I would be feeling better in a few more days. I did!!!

Had some pain and difficulty with a previous dental implant. Dr. Kishter and his staff quickly assessed the problem, coordinated with my dentist, and formulated a treatment plan to address my problem. Dental related visits always cause me anxiety but this practice and Dr. Kishter minimized that distress.
“quick assessment and diagnosis as well as coordination with my dentist”
