**Subject:** Dentist recommendation – Dr. Lee at Downtown Dental

Hi David,

Welcome to the city! I heard you were looking for a dentist, and I want to highly recommend my dentist, Dr. Lee at Downtown Dental. I have been going to her for five years, and I actually do not dread dental appointments anymore.

Dr. Lee’s practice is located right downtown at 450 King Street, which is maybe a 10-minute walk from our office. The office is modern, clean, and has big windows that make it feel less clinical. They have Netflix on the ceiling during cleanings, which is a nice touch.

What I really appreciate about Dr. Lee is her communication. She explains everything she is doing in plain language. She shows you the X-rays on a screen and points out exactly what she is looking at. If she recommends a treatment, she explains why it is needed, what the alternatives are, and what would happen if you waited. I never feel pressured or upsold. I actually went in last year thinking I needed a filling, and she told me I did not – she said it was just staining and gave me a different solution. A less honest dentist could have charged me hundreds of dollars.

The hygienists are also great. They are gentle but thorough, and they give you practical advice without being preachy. The front desk staff handles insurance claims directly, so I have never had to submit a claim myself.

Practical details: They are open until 7 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which is helpful for after-work appointments. You can book online through their website, which I love because I hate calling places. They accept most insurance plans, including ours. New patient appointments are usually available within two weeks.

Let me know if you want me to send you the link to their booking page. Hope this helps!

Best,
Natalie
