Elizabeth E. Rushin, DDS

Dr. Rushin is amazing. My mother came here first and quickly got my brother and I in at this place because of how amazing they are. Dr. Rushin is very nice and does a great job. The experience is incredibly pleasant and the entire staff are wonderful to talk to. If you get to talk to one of her assistants, KP, you’ll understand how nice they are. They are willing to work with your schedule and they leave you feeling like you’re in good hands. I recommend this practice to anyone looking for a new dentist; they rock!

I have never done a review for a Dentist before… never felt like I should… let alone given 5 stars to any of them before. I can now unequivocally say that I have finally found a Dental office that I can wholeheartedly recommend.
TIP: if you want to try a new dentist, the time to do so is when you are due for x-​rays. It is highly unlikely that a dentist would share your records, so wait til you need x-​rays, then go for the switcheroo. Especially important if you want insurance to cover it.
Being due myself for x-​rays and my next cleaning, I pondered my options of all the places nearby. Finally asked myself, if you could go to any dentist you’ve heard of over the past few years, who would it be? My answer was Dr. Elizabeth Rushin (based on recommendations that I had been hearing about for years)… but her practice is in Cary and I live in North Raleigh. Somehow I believed you should go to a dentist near you. After checking out some nearby options that didn’t make me jump up and down, I decided that you know what… Cary IS NOT THAT FAR. AND… maybe it’s worth the few extra miles to know I’m in good hands.
And that’s exactly what I got.
Pluses:
FRIENDLY… seriously, these folks will make you believe you’re the only patient they’ve ever had and the best patient they’ve ever had.

CARING… they take your blood pressure when you first go in for x-​rays. Ever had a dental practice do that before? Uh, me neither, and in my case it ended up leading me to getting attention for high blood pressure and ultimately feeling a whole lot better. But I digress, as that won’t be relevant to most. But they care enough to check it. Wow.

CLEAN… not only is it spotless, but they are super conscientious with hygiene. Having come from a practice recently where I found myself cringing at times… here I was like oh wow, they GET this. I’m safe.

COMFORT… This Dentist knows what she’s doing. How to know? You can feel and see the know-​how with not only the examination, but in the way the office is run. Not something to be taken for granted if you’ve been searching for as many years and experienced varying degrees of such for so many years like I have.
FEAR… so my feeling is more of «I’d rather give birth, than have my teeth cleaned» than actual fear, but whatever degree your dislike is of the dentist, this practice caters to any and every degree of «fear». So much so that their website is called «end your fear​.com». They constantly ask you if you’re okay… they make it clear there are other options if the one they’re using is not comfortable. They make you know they will find a way to make it okay with you, at your comfort level.
MAGAZINES… current! Seriously… hah! Goes to show that attention to detail goes down to the lobby level. Not that you’ll have a lot of time to wait and read, but they care enough to make sure even your reading options are up-​to-​date.
So, I leave this review on a somewhat silly sounding note with the magazine comment, but let me just say that I take this, (my 300^th review) seriously. And I can seriously and confidently recommend Dr. Rushin and her practice.
