What makes Dr. Khaled amazing is his genuine understanding and empathy towards patients who harbor fear towards dental procedures. He is incredibly patient, taking the time to explain each step of the process, ensuring that I was comfortable and informed throughout my treatment. His approach is gentle, and he employs techniques that significantly minimize discomfort, something that I, being extremely afraid of pain, greatly appreciated.
