Verified Supportive, Fast, and Exactly What I Needed After Major Dental Procedures

I reached out to Dr. Sartin after weeks of struggling to get medical leave paperwork completed for my Short-Term Disability. I had undergone multiple dental procedures — a root canal, tooth extraction, dental implant, fillings, cleanings, and even teeth whitening — and the pain, follow-up appointments, and healing process made it nearly impossible to keep working. On top of that, I was mentally and emotionally exhausted from trying to manage everything without the proper support. I originally tried to get my dentist to complete the paperwork, but it was a stressful and time-consuming process that didn’t give me the results I needed. I went back and forth just trying to get basic documentation submitted, and in the end, the paperwork was incomplete. It caused delays, confusion, and a lot of anxiety — especially since I was already struggling physically and financially. That’s when I finally found Dr. Sartin. I honestly wish I had reached out to her from the beginning. She listened without judgment, understood my situation right away, and completed everything I needed within two days. My leave extension was approved just in time, and I was able to get the Short-Term Disability pay and protection I needed — all without the stress I’d experienced before. What makes this especially important is that many people don’t realize you can take protected medical leave for dental issues, especially when they’re severe. In my case, the procedures — and the stress that came with them — were real, and Dr. Sartin helped validate that. She made the process simple, supportive, and fast. If you’re dealing with medical or dental issues and need time off from work, don’t hesitate. I highly recommend Dr. Sartin and her team — they gave me peace of mind when I needed it most.
