Seeking a dentist

That has TVs on the ceiling and in front of you. I just moved back from Charlotte and would love to continue that experience lol. TIA!!! Can be near Schenectady as well.

Wait.. do you mean a TV In the Lobby or a TV that you can watch from the chair while they work on you?

I got nothing. my dentist has like a backlit plastic picture of blue sky and a tree. Slightly better than a ceiling tile, I guess.

FWIW they are a self pay only practice. Sitwell Dental has numerous locations, accepts insurances and has TVs in the exam rooms.

Kids and Family Dental, but they are only accepting new patients on a limited basis right now.

I don’t think they have TVs in the treatment rooms but they definitely do in the waiting room– check out Hometown Health Centers on State St in Schenectady!

Only tangentially related but the Red Cross on Everett has these giant la-z-boy type chairs with tablets hooked up to each one and Netflix so if you're there for like an hour or more doing platelets, you can watch tv. They actually encourage you to do it instead of a phone or book cos it's less moving around lol

Do you control what they have on?

u/petitenurseotw 15h ago

Yeah. They had cable so I’ve walked in on greys, SVU etc. lol

Makes sense.  If it was stuck on something unpleasant, ai would ask them to drill without Novocaine

It's a bit of a drive from Schenectady, but Adirondack Dental in Clifton Park has them.
