I've had a few good dentists and after moving from Arizona a few years ago, I needed to find a new one. Dr. Bickel was the second dentist i came across here in Seattle and I'm sticking with him. He has a calm presence and skillful hands (no painful experiences here folks). It's also great that his office is conveniently close to my home neighborhood and has free parking. The front office staff is friendly (and sarcastic at the appropriate times). If you're looking for a new dentist, check out this practice. You won't be disappointed and I'd bet you'd stick around.
