Meet Mark J. Amidei, DDS Philosophy of Care
My patients deserve to have the information they need to make good choices about their oral health. That’s why I take the time necessary with my patients to explain their conditions and go over the options for their treatment. I listen to their needs and desires and tailor a plan that fills their desires. I enjoy the trusting doctor/patient relationship which helps relieve the stress they feel about seeing the dentist. Having grown up as a First Generation Northern Italian, my family values are first and foremost. All of my patients are approached with the affection and tenderness that I would expect for myself or my family.
My patients appreciate the conducive atmosphere to trust, which is very important with treatment acceptance and follow through. I find that many patients refer their friends and families to me for reasons well beyond just dentistry. It is all about comfort and a light touch. I take for granted that our facility is second to none and realize it is this way for our patients. I promise to provide you with my best ability and skill in a gentle, caring environment. I invite you to experience this for yourself. - Mark J. Amidei, DDS
