    I was referred to UENO Clinic by my general dentist, One Dental on Foxworthy, because I needed all…read morefour wisdom teeth removed and a dental implant. ** I want to preface, I have MAD ANXIETY with all dentists appts. CONSULTATION Honestly wasn't sure if I wanted to do it in multiple procedures or just get it all over with... I went in open minded. The consultation itself was quick & thorough. Watched about a 10 min vid on pros and cons of wisdom tooth extraction, had X-rays taken, and then met with Dr. Reed Rayher and the team. Dr. Rayher was super chill and easy to talk to. He made a few recommendations, answered my questions. I felt comfortable enough to say, "Just knock me out and do everything at once." He also talked to me about using a healing treatment made from my own blood (I have absolutely no idea what the technical name is, so don't quote me ), but it's placed into the extraction sites to help promote healing. My response? "Fk yeah." Anything to recover faster. Now... the one major hiccup. I had planned everything around this surgery.. time off work, my ride, meal prepped, prescription picked up, and even started the required antibiotics and diazepam before the procedure. Then, about three hours before my appointment, I got the call that it had to be canceled because Dr. Rayher was sick. I was fuming. I worked up all the nerves for the procedure just for it to not work out. I definitely cussed up a storm on the phone w/ nurse/clinician. While apologizing for my foul language because I knew it wasn't their fault. Just really an unfortunate situation. Despite that, the team did everything they could to make it right. They got me rescheduled as quickly and the nurse/clinical even took the time to talk with me about the antibiotics that was making me feel awful. They helped switch me to a different antibiotic (thank you... I really hate amoxicillin). && incredibly thoughtful gesture, they also comped my sedation because of the cancellation. They absolutely didn't have to do that, but it meant a lot and showed they genuinely cared about the inconvenience I experienced. Fast forward two weeks... procedure day finally arrived. Same 9 yards. Prepped on the prescription medicine, my ride, meal prep. By the time I got there, the diazepam had already kicked in... I wish I remembered (or asked ) everyone's names because every single person I interacted with was incredibly kind. The assistant who brought me back.. so sweet. Got me hooked up to all the monitors, and even brought me a warm blanket. One thing you probably don't even realize made a huge difference: you narrated everything you were doing. As someone with dental anxiety, hearing "I'm putting this here..." or "I'm going to hook this up next..." kept me from getting startled. That simple communication helped me more than you know. Then Dr. Rayher came in with another staff member.. so I knew it was about to start and my anxiety once again was through the roof cause I know it was about to begin. Not to mention once the sedation started... ive never done this sort of thing. I was definitely panicking... to the point where at one point, I actually pulled my oxygen mask off. I WANTED OUT of that chair. ‍ Whoever gently rubbed my forehead and reassured me--thank you. (I think he mentioned dirt bikes at one point? ). Seriously. That small act of kindness grounded me so much in that moment. Dr. Rayher also continued talking me through the sedation process instead of just doing everything in silence. Again, as someone with anxiety, hearing what was happening made such a difference. Finally, to the person who wheeled me out afterward and patiently went over all of my post-op instructions with me: thank you. Waking up loopy wasn't super fun but your warmth, patience, and friendly voice made the experience so much easier. Overall, this place exceeded my expectations. I'm now recovering from having all four wisdom teeth removed and a dental implant placed, and so far everything has been going really well. I have my 1 week follow-up and my 3 month implant check coming up. This time im looking forward to it while being coherent. If you're fortunate enough to get referred here, I would absolutely recommend UENO Clinic and Dr. Reed Rayher without hesitation. 10/10 experience. Thank you to the entire team for taking such great care of me.

    Communication was lacking throughout the entire process. I repeatedly asked when I would be able to…read morespeak with a doctor because I had questions and concerns, but that opportunity never seemed to come. Appointments felt rushed, and I left without the information I was seeking. The assistants were kind and professional, but I expected more direct communication and involvement from the doctor overseeing my care. At one visit, I was told a doctor would be examining me, but that never happened. For the amount charged, I expected a much higher level of patient care, communication, and attention. Patients should feel informed, heard, and able to have their questions answered. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. I would not return and would not recommend this practice based on the lack of communication and overall patient experience.

    I guess the Dentist is good for all these positive reviews, or they're fake. Saw there ads for free…read moreimplant consultation and called the number. Spoke with a gentlemen for about 10 minutes answered a few questions, he gave me bunch of info and scheduled me for soonest appointment which was about 2 weeks out. Double checked everything seemed super nice. A few days before appointment I get call from staff saying it's not actually free for me, and I have to pay $150. Super bait and switch. Could have booked a free consultation with another provider but now I'm probably gonna have to wait another week or two since they delayed me. Do not recommend. Don't waste your time!

    I've been with Dr. Gallez (and his predecessor Dr. Poulos) for many years and have received…read moreexcellent care, from wisdom teeth extractions to routine cleanings to gum surgery to bone grafts as well as 3 implants (so far). The quality of these services has always been outstanding and as someone with teeth that require a lot of care I can say this has made a big difference in my life. Recently I broke the screw of one of my implants, and despite it being wedged inside the implant Dr. Gallez was able to expertly extract and replace it, free of charge. The office staff always makes me feel very welcome, and I have never felt that anyone was rude or indifferent to my needs. I would, however, recommend to clarify all financial arrangements ahead of time, since Dr. Gallez is not part of any network any more (I think), and you may be expected to pay immediately after the treatment and get reimbursed later (which the office will help you with).

    I came in with a chipped front tooth and was told by other dentists and places that I would need…read moreveneers, so I was prepared to move forward with that. I had been asking around everywhere but after seeing Dr. Bliss, she took the time to thoroughly explain my options and ended up fixing my chipped tooth and discoloration beautifully without veneers. It looks amazing!! You honestly can't tell I ever had a filling, and now I don't think I'll ever need veneers. She completely exceeded my expectations. Dr. Bliss was incredibly kind, professional, and patient, explaining everything step by step even though it was a last minute appointment and I knew she was busy. I never felt rushed, and she made sure everything was perfect. I truly appreciate her skill and care and will absolutely be coming back. Highly recommend Dr. Bliss!

It was 100% clear I was uncomfortable because the nitrous was not working and without my consent she proceeded to give me an injection with absolutely no nitrous on board. After which, I had a panic attack the entire office heard. While you believe you may have a policy to "take a break, or stop"; it is not followed. part of the response from the office below: "If there is ever any indication that a patient may be uncomfortable, we immediately offer to pause, take a break, or stop the treatment altogether. It is ultimately up to the patient if they wish to proceed or not. Your comfort and well-being are always our top priorities"

    Dr. Ho is an exceptional dentist and I'm so lucky to have found her (after seeing multiple other…read moredentists I didn't like). Two things that stand out: 1. Her focus on being gentle and as non-invasive as possible. A filling chipped off while getting a cleaning and Dr. Ho was able to re-fill it, very quickly, within a few days without anesthesia with basically no pain. 2. Her office staff is also excellent. Maria (may be remembering her name incorrectly) usually helps with insurance and billing, and she is always super on top of it and helps maximize/clarify benefits. They also followed up with me after my filling to make sure all was okay. The office is a bit far from my house but Dr. Ho is just that good. Highly recommend her!

    I think I found my new favorite dentist!…read more I was a little overdue for my cleaning (it's been about a year). I did a quick yelp search and Dr. Karen Ho popped up in my search. Super easy to make an appointment. I called in and someone on the phone collected all the basic information. On the day of my appt I came in about 10 min before my appt and Maria at the front desk was very friendly and greeted me as soon as I walked in. She answered the few Qs I had, I completed my paperwork, and then waited in the lobby for a few mins. I don't remember the girl's name who took my xray but she was super friendly and gentle. I know those little things they put in your mouth is not comfortable but she made it quick and easy with the xray. Then Dr. Karen Ho appeared and went over my xrays and yay no cavities. I was super surprised she sat down and asked me about my concerns etc. Dr. Ho was super friendly and patient. I did not feel rushed and did not feel like just another random patient. She listened to my concerns and addressed them. I never felt so heard in my life at the dentist and really appreciate this extra friendly gesture :) Next, Maggie was my hygienist and carefully cleaned my teeth. No pain what so ever. Although we didn't have much of a conversation, she was friendly and nice at informing me which areas I should focus on and directions on keeping up my oral care. It's weird to say but I had a wonderful experience here and I look forward to returning in 6 months. If you're looking for a new dentist then I highly recommend Dr. Karen Ho!
