I’ve been going to see Dr Gowda for a few years now. I don’t go as regularly as I should but it has nothing to do with the good doctor. I am a procrastinator. Plain and simple. Dr. Gowda is gentle and kind and relaxed. My now adult children also have seen him for a few years. I have a needle phobia that he has always been very respectful of. When I needed to have my wisdom teeth out a few years ago(all 4 at once) he recommended me to a wonderful dental surgeon. Also, my daughter had braces for a few years and he sent us to a wonderful orthodontist. As a note, his practice has opted to close during the Olympics.
