San Francisco
Customer Feedback:
Union Street Dental Care
“I’d always had yellowish teeth, but after going to Dr. Dintcho, people kept asking me if I had lost weight, because I looked so much better— presumably because I was smiling more! He gave me nitrous oxide, and I loooved it! He took away all the unpleasantness of being at the dentist. You should definitely list him in The Good Service Guide!“

Larry Ackley’s Professional Painting
“I’d recommend Larry unreservedly. Our old house was a mess, covered with chipped and cracked layers of paint. Larry completely transformed it. He’s a terrific craftsman with a great sense of color.”
