Hi Moms, I am looking for some doctor/dentist suggestions in the Orem area. My hubby is obese and would like to start (finally) talking to a doctor to get healthy. We're thinking just a regular internal medicine doc would be good (unless you have other suggestions). So if you know of a good doc please let me know. Also I am looking for a dentist suggestions. I haven't seen a dentist in 6 yrs because I'm slightly afraid of them and because we didn't have insurance. Well now we have insurance and I really need to see one (it's just time). The reason I'm afraid is when I was younger my parents yearly took me to a really old dentist and although I never had a cavity, just getting my teeth cleaned was painful. So if you have any dentists in the Orem area that you really like please send their names my way. A bonus would be if they are good with kids seeing as I need to start taking my 3 yr old to the dentist.

What can I do next?

Our family has been seeing Dr. Mike Bennett in Orem for about five years now. We love them. They work great with kids, have an amazing staff, and have worked with us financially since we don't have dental insurance. We first saw them because they were the only ones who would take our then two-year-old. Within a month, they had to remove a tooth for him, which is broke running into a brick wall. They were absolutely wonderful with him. Let me know if you need more info.

i have gone to painful dentists before too and until i went to someone different, i just thought going to the dentist was painful. switching dentists made a huge difference! i like the Dental Center in Orem. they have a great play area too with very comfy chairs if you need to nurse a baby. it's been over 6 months since i've been there so the staff may have changed, but i liked the whole staff last time i was there.

L.,

Gary Wiest is a really good dentist. His phone number is ###-###-####. His office is located on 800 North and almost 200 West in Provo. He is very kind, personable, and gentle, and is also my brother-in-law. His office staff is really great, too, especially one of his receptionists, who is my sister!

Enjoy!

I highly recommend Shelly Savage and her cousin Aaron Robinson. Their office is on State street on the Provo side. Near the border of Orem. My husband likes Dr. Robinson for men issues. For main issues, he really likes Dr. Savage as much as I do. And we are seeing her for everything, including for our recent pregnancy. We have our children see her also. She is a family practioner. They also accept a wide range of insurances. I hope all is well. M.

L., if you are open to a different approach to your husband's weight problem, I would suggest seeing a hormone specialist. Many weight problems are related to a hormone imbalance, and regular doctors often don't acknowledge this--they tend to treat the symptoms rather than the cause. My husband has been seeing a hormone specialist that got him on bioidentical thyroid and testosterone, which has helped TONS, not just with weight loss, but with motivation, drive, and sleep issues as well. He also did the HCG weight loss program, and was really successful with it.

Anyway, it's a bit of a drive, but I would recommend www.triellehormones.com. Their website for some reason only has their Arizona address, but they have an office in Draper. Give them a call if you want more info.
