I wholeheartedly agree with the previous two raters. To give Howell (notice I omitted Dr) even one star is a huge stretch. His staff was amazing...professional, patient, gentle. I had gone there with a severe toothache. Howell came into the room, didnt say hello or introduce himself, and proceeded to poke around the area. I told him anything cold (air, beverages, etc) were huge irritants. This pseudodentistr proceeded to take a can of air and blast my tooth. I screamed and almot fell off the table. He didnt apologize but just said the tooth may have to be removed. Why would you do that to a patient already in pain? I honestly think he did it on purpose. I left the office feeling worse and in tears. Ive never been trated so poorly by a medical professional.NEVER EVER WILL THIS PSEUDO-DENTIST TOUCH MY MOUTH AGAIN! HE IS THE WORSE EVER! P.S. And the comments about his looks are more than accurate. Hes a washed up beach bum trying to hold onto a youth that sailed a long time ago and is lost at sea.

I personally didnt care much for Dr Howell at all, his dental assistant (the blonde one) was absolutely wonderful, she was so nice and personable. But Dr Howell himself was the complete opposite. I only saw him when he was actually working on my mouth, and he didnt say a word during the whole thing. The other reviewers comment about his looks was kind of true, looks like a washed up rockstar but thats neither here nor there. I would love to be able to go back just for his dental assistant but Im unwilling to see the doctor himself again so Im forced to look for another dentist yet again.

Excellent Dentist, Dr Howell has been my dentist for many many years, he is talented perfectionist, always concerned about pain and will be sure I am numb frequenlty during procedures. I have never had to have anything redone, he is godsent, The office staff is always pleasant and friendly. Pam my hygienist is a hoot, very good and is very conscious of tenderness and pain. I am grateful to each and everyone here for always taking such good care of me and my husband :)

He is terrible with patients, yells at them if they ask a single question, screams at his employees and degrades the dental students that go there to learn in front of patients. If he was the last dentist on earth, I would let my teeth rot. STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS! He is psycho. And he looks like a 50 year old who wishes he was still 20...its a joke.

I would not even be giving him one star, but there is nothing lower then that. Howell is terrible with children so do not take yours there. He was awful to both of my nephews who are 5. If you want your children yelled at for having reactions to pain, then this is the place for you. Needless to say I am no longer a patient of this awful dentist.

In my oppinion this guy is a major dick. I was waiting on my boyfriend to get a quote. He comes out and fussed at his employees about lunches. That turned us off so much we are not doing business there. If you dont have respect for the people that work for you how are you going to treat your customers you freak.
