We moved to B'ham about two years ago and right after my husband and I established a dentist for us, our daughter had a minor dental emergency. We asked for a referral to a pediatric dentist and were given Dr. Hurst's name. I contacted their office and was immediately worked into their schedule. Fortunately, her problem turned out to be very easily treated. We have been to his office on numerous occasions since then for cleanings and fillings. The charges are very fair and they work hard to come to an agreement with your dental insurance to make sure your child's care is covered.\r
Dr Hurst is very personable and professional with the kids. I have a 7 yr old son and a 10 yr old daughter. He has always treated me and my children with utmost respect and treats their concerns as legitimate and takes the time to answer them. The entire staff is very loving and caring with the kids and always tries to make them as comfortable as possible. My son was born with some dental deficiencies and has had a lot of work done on his teeth. While he cetainly doesn't enjoy getting a filling, he does like the kindness that surrounds him. \r
We have had other pediatric dentists over the years, and I would say Dr Hurst is our favorite by far. I highly recommend Dr Hurst and all of his staff.
Pros: Excellent care and environment for kids
Cons: parking is difficult, but this will change when they move to new building
