    Front office
    Malikah H.

    While I didn't ultimately get serviced here due to the price being close to double what I was quoted before they checked my mouth I did have a great experience with this location. I was definitely a little suspect when I saw the random location but was pleasantly surprised. The front office staff as well as the dental assistants were very stellar with their level of care to ensure I was comfortable . I loved the welcome gift which consisted of a tumbler (that didn't keep my coffee hot) lol but the gesture was definitely thoughtful. The one start was removed based on the price discrepancy but I can't really be too upset. While they did refer me to their enododentist that could have seen me same day I was quoted $1200-$1600 but the referral was for $2200 which was completely outside of my budget allocated for the visit. Equally the front office staff as well as the dentist were trying to assist with figuring out something as I was in an intense amount of pain, Should I have dental insurance that works with this office or want to pay the cash price for this location I would definitely try it again.

    Started visiting Dr. Dogra and the CS team towards the end of 2017. You'll find the common theme in that most people hate the dentist but this Dr. And his team make it FAR LESS painful to go and, not to sound corny but I genuinely look forward to a visit. He's also an Orthodontist which is what attracted me to see him initially. I had the goal to get my teeth straightened out but hated the thought of adult braces. Cut to 11 months later and FastBraces were worth every single penny spent. Had to pay out of pocket only because my insurance doesn't cover it but it was nevertheless the best decision I ever made. The office was so easy to work with in regards to payment. The best part is the constant reminders of appointments via text & email (not kidding) because someone like me doesn't always remember to save appt details. Dr. Dogra did such an amazing job on my teeth, I felt almost unrecognizable. Jose, Katie are such great assistants! Seriously, you won't regret being a CS patient

The charge was refunded only after I brought this to the office's attention. The doctor at this office reviewed my daughter's X-rays, which were taken at this office, and told me that she had a cavity and a white spot. The doctor recommended a filling for the cavity and a Curodont treatment for the white spot. I declined the Curodont treatment at that time because it would have been an out-of-pocket expense, and the diagnosis was unexpected, so I wanted to get a second opinion first. I brought the same X-rays to my daughter's previous dentist, who reviewed them, examined my daughter's teeth in person, and told me that she did not find a cavity or white spot. I understand that dentists can have different professional opinions, and I cannot personally determine which assessment was correct. However, receiving conflicting opinions about my daughter's dental health was concerning as a parent. During my X-rays, the sensor caused me to gag repeatedly, making the procedure very uncomfortable. During my first visit, I was photographed from the front and, unexpectedly, from the side. The staff then handed me a metal retractor and asked me to place it in my mouth for additional photographs. None of this was explained to me beforehand, and I was not expecting to have photographs taken from multiple angles with a metal retractor in my mouth. The experience left me feeling confused and uncomfortable. My daughter had a similar experience. She was asked to place a metal retractor in her mouth for photographs, and she was also photographed from the side. She told me afterward that she found the experience weird and uncomfortable as well. Ultimately, I lost confidence in the practice and decided to take my family elsewhere, so I cancelled all of our upcoming appointments with this dental clinic.

I experience moderate discomfort during routine dental visits, and his team always goes above and beyond to ensure that I'm comfortable throughout my visit. My former dentist would fault me for this: "you dont floss enough or brush thoroughly..etc" was their reason for my consistent discomfort. At this clinic, I experience none of that. You're uncomfortable? Okay we'll numb you- no more pain and leaving in a bad mood after treatment. I am always greeted very kindly by the girls up front and my hygienist. Hearing everyone talk and laugh frequently with Dr. Mercado goes to show that it's a healthy work environment and enjoyable place to work.

Word of advise... prior to booking an appt always get an estimate from your dental insurance what they will pay because their fees are very high and some x-rays are usually unnecessary. I had a bad experience with them as I am sure you can tell. Second is I went in for a second opinion on a crown and came out with a recommendation for 5 teeth to be pulled and 5 implants. No Joke. Third they charged me for a whole mouth x-ray when I just had one and sent them copies. Didn't matter they required it (my mistake). I paid in full and they billed my insurance. My insurance only paid a small portion of their charge because of course they already paid the first dentist. They did not reimburse me even the small amount until I called and and was told I had "cheap" insurance. Oh boy, that set me off.
