Don’t go to the dentist Dr. Stein on Hope street. He’s a butcher

Spot On is AMAZING!! We cannot say enough good things about them. They take care of our dog like he is their own.

Hey, thank you! I’ll check out Stamford Dental Spa and see if it’s covered under my new insurance.
I’d definitely appreciate a Spot On update if you remember. I’m almost more worried about my pup’s doctor than my own?

Northeast Medical Group on Long Ridge is great, Dr Ehrlich is fantastic.
Bulls Head Pet Hospital is A+
Dr Cimato at Harbor Point Dental is a great dentist.

Yes! Lots of great artists in the area! Check out the Norwalk Art Space, the JCC, Fairfield Cultural Alliance, local art galleries. The installations every summer around downtown are always so creative.

Stamford Dental Spa is the best dentist I’ve ever had and strongly recommend, Doctor Patel is so attentive, gentle and professional. Genuinely relaxing experience to go to the dentist there.
Trying Spot On Vet next week and will happily update with my thoughts!

MadLab was a cool hub in Norwalk. Not sure if they’re still around.

There isn't one all encompassing one.
Curtain call is a solid community theater that can serve this purpose for actors.
There are bunch of boomer bar bands that play regularly around the city and you'll notice all of the same people show up to all of them...that seems like a little community.
IDK if Ratso still has his music studio up and running but that place also seemed like a hub for more serious musicians.
I can't speak to painters.

Glasses of wine are in the $5-$8 category, they do have some cocktails for under $10 I believe, cheap beers, and a few $3 shots. Also have a few snacks all under $10 too

I am certain there are creative people in the city but there is no connective organization. A lot of the art galleries on Franklin Street died out just before COVID and things haven't gotten easier for them. I have personally tried stimulating some arts scene but in my experience the only interested parties are corporate and want to monetize it. For example, a business may off a space for a monthly event but you have to pay a $300 event fee. This may not be a lot if you're a real business, but if you're a rag-tag group of artists — that's prohibitively expensive to stimulate some community.
I'm interested to see how the comedy club at the mall works out. I haven't kept up with Third Place's live events either. There's also been a secret show in the basement of Lorca a handful of times this past month. There could be some developments.

My backyard has a nice view of a wooded park. Scenic and doubles as a bathroom. BYOFW if you want to sit by the fire. I can supply cigars too for a nominal fee

That's a very nice offer, is it acceptable if I have ten friends who also enjoy free drinks?

Whatever you do, don't settle for LA Fitness. It's horribly oversubscribed and the people here are savages.

You have to schedule to go visit, but then you get a fob to get it whenever you want.
