What stands out in the registry data is how small a share of these listings are general dentists. A little over half are, which is unusual, and it changes what this neighborhood is good for.
What is listed in Fisher Parkway
Seventeen of the 30 listings are general dentistry. The specialist side is proportionally large: four periodontists, four in oral and maxillofacial surgery, two orthodontists and one prosthodontist, plus two dental clinics. Four periodontists and four oral surgeons in a neighborhood of 30 practices is strong cover for implant and extraction work.
N Mayfair Rd has 18 practices, with two more recorded under North Mayfair Road and North Mayfair Rd, which are the same street written differently in the registry. W North Ave has 10. Between the two roads you have the entire neighborhood, so comparing practices in person is realistic.
Twenty two listings are registered as individual practitioners and eight as organizations. Twenty three of the 30 have been registered since before 2010, a high proportion, and the oldest registration in Fisher Parkway dates to 2006. None of the 30 has published a website or opening hours through this directory, and none has been claimed by its owner.
How to choose between them
If you need surgical or gum treatment, this is a good neighborhood to be searching in. Four oral surgeons and four periodontists means you can compare more than one opinion on work that is often expensive and not easily reversed.
For routine care the pool is smaller than the headline number suggests, at 17 general dentists. Call several and ask each whether they are taking new patients, whether they are in network with your plan, how soon you could be seen and what they handle in house. With no endodontist listed here, a general dentist who does straightforward root canals themselves is worth finding.
- Eight listings are organizations and 22 are individual practitioners, so most practices here are likely to be small.
- Two orthodontists are listed, which is enough to get a second opinion on braces or aligners locally.
- Twenty three of the 30 have been registered since before 2010. That indicates stability, not quality.
If you need something Fisher Parkway does not have
Two specialties are missing: pediatric dentistry and endodontics. Both are available elsewhere in Wauwatosa, only about 0.8 miles away, with 18 pediatric practices and eight endodontists listed there. That is a very short trip, and 18 pediatric practices is real choice.
For general care, the nearby neighborhoods add plenty. Greenwood Estates has 36 practices just 0.3 miles away, more than Fisher Parkway itself, and Mayfair Park has 17 at 0.7 miles. Parkway Estates and Bluemound Manor have seven each, at 1.2 and 1.4 miles, and Swan Park and Underwood Parkway have six each, at 1.1 and 1.7 miles.
Insurance and paying
The registry behind these pages records who is registered, at what address and in what specialty. It holds no fees, no opening hours and no insurance information, so this page cannot tell you what treatment costs or which plans are accepted. That only changes when a practice owner claims their listing, and none of the 30 in Fisher Parkway has done so.
So confirm the money side directly. Ask the practice whether they are in network for your exact plan, then check with your insurer separately, since two plans from one company can be handled differently. Ask for a written estimate with procedure codes for anything beyond an exam and cleaning, and for implants ask whether the surgical and restorative stages are quoted apart.
If it is urgent
For a broken tooth, a lost filling or pain that is not easing, call the general practices on N Mayfair Rd and W North Ave and ask each whether they hold same day emergency appointments. Four oral surgery practices are listed here if a tooth has to come out, though no endodontist is, so a root canal may mean a short trip. You can also search by distance at dentist directory.
Some symptoms need an emergency room rather than a dentist. Go to hospital if swelling is spreading toward your eye or down into your neck, if breathing or swallowing has become difficult, if you have a fever with facial swelling, or if bleeding from the mouth will not stop.
