I live in a very blue area where 90% are vaxxed. I've had the same dentist for 20 years. I like him because he is an old guy who doesn't push for unneeded xrays or procedures. Last time I had an exam and cleaning six months ago, he asked if I was vaxxed. I lied and said yes because I understand his paranoia about touching people's mouths all day. He sent me a reminder of my next appointment saying that all patients must be vaxxed. How do I find another dentist who doesn't care about vax and doesn't push for unneeded procedures (as some of them do)?

I lied because he is in his 70's and is afraid he will die if he gets it. I didn't want him to rush to get me out of the chair ASAP. Calling an office doesn't tell me if they are a dentist who tries to upsell on a lot of unnecessary work because he has a boat payment.
