Dr. Frederick D. Hemerick, DDS

Dentistry in Clearwater doesn’t have to feel like an event. Dr. Frederick D. Hemerick, DDS keeps the routine in check—cleanings, fillings, crowns, and the occasional root canal—without the theater some clinics stage. The practice leans on the basics: preventive care, restorative work, and the kind of diagnostics that catch things before they become weekend emergencies.

On the south side of Fort Harrison, the office sits at 902 S Ft Harrison Ave, Clearwater, FL 33756, a stretch of low-slung buildings that have seen the neighborhood shift from citrus groves to condo towers. The area still carries a quiet, unpretentious rhythm, where a dental appointment can slide into the day without disrupting much else. Parking is whatever the curb allows, and the walk from the lot to the door is short enough to avoid second thoughts.

Most visits start with a call—(727) 461-9556—to slot into the schedule. The staff answers with the kind of efficiency that suggests they’ve fielded every question before, from insurance quirks to whether the Novocain will wear off before dinner. X-rays, extractions, and the occasional cosmetic tweak are all part of the rotation, though the focus stays on keeping teeth functional rather than flashy.

When the map app stalls, directions are straightforward: head south on Fort Harrison until the numbers hit 900, then look for the sign that doesn’t blink. For a precise pin, here’s the link.
