    I've been going to this office for so long now, and they're always the best! Very sweet staff,…read moreamazing doctors, and they always treat my teeth well!

    Updating with an added star…read more After my original review, the crown Dr. Winger placed came off. I went back in and he recemented it at no charge, which was the right call since it was his work. I appreciate that. I want other patients to know how that visit went, because the response above leaves it out. Before he treated my tooth, Dr. Winger said we needed to address the elephant in the room. He told me I'd made harsh comments about employees and that some of them were uncomfortable working with me because they were afraid of ending up in a review. I pointed out on the spot that my original review named two employees positively and only raised concerns about one -- it wasn't a broad complaint about the staff, and that distinction wasn't acknowledged. This conversation happened chairside, while I was sitting there needing care, with no warning. In my opinion, that's a conversation you have after treatment, not before. I would gladly have paid full price for the recement to skip it. In the moment, it felt like the conversation was the price of care. He also said, in substance, that his employees need to feel safe in the office. What he described was staff worried something they said might end up in a review. In my opinion that isn't feeling unsafe -- it's not wanting to be reviewed. If staff conduct themselves professionally, there's nothing to fear from a review. To be fair: Tammy did later send a written apology by email, and the payment plan was ultimately honored after she escalated it. I want to acknowledge that. But across multiple visits, the tone of that written apology has not matched how I've been spoken to in person, and that pattern is what was never addressed -- not in the email, not in the meeting, not in the response above. Dr. Winger asked that I bring concerns to him first rather than post publicly. Between my original review and this visit, there was no call, no email, no attempt to reach out. The first time it came up was chairside, before he treated me. Public reviews exist so other patients can decide for themselves. Dr. Winger's clinical work is genuinely good and I've said that from the start. My concerns are about the front office, and about a response that vouches for character without addressing conduct.

    As I am reading through these other reviews, it makes me wonder if there isn't some type of bad…read morereview sabotage going on. I have heard that happens so hopefully my honest review can help others fairly evaluate this business. Since my last review in 2022, I have gotten 4 implants at Pebble Beach Dental. All the work to achieve this was completed by Dr. Erickson. I am a private pay customer, and I have appreciated the payment option provided by Pebble Beach Dental. I just returned home from my bi-annual cleaning, and my oral health is good and stable. I have had bridges removed as the anchor teeth failed and after a time of healing two implants on either side of mouth have been placed. The ability to eat and chew without pain has vastly improved my quality of life. I am really surprised by the negative statement made about the office manager, Stephanie. We have met and spoken both casually and around business over the last 4 years and never have I experienced anything remotely as is being said in these reviews. She is neither petty, dismissive or unprofessional to me nor have I seen her be that with other patients. One would think that if that were her behavior, I would have experienced it as well in this length of time. Something I believe strongly is that no one can make me feel anything. Depending on my perspective and my own state of mind is how I will receive and reaction to any given situation. Please do not these negative reviews prevent you from seeking care at this business as it is at the top of the scale in terms of ability, character, and quality.

    While I appreciate the clinical care provided by the dental staff, my experience with the office…read moremanager Stephanie, has been very disappointing. After reading other reviews, I realize I am not alone in these concerns. When I raised questions regarding my treatment and scheduling, I felt that my concerns were dismissed rather than addressed. The office manager's communication felt very mean and unprofessional; rather than listening to the patient's perspective, she seemed more focused on defending the practice and the lack of time for appointments. I was provided with inconsistent information, which left me feeling frustrated and misled. Instead of working toward a collaborative solution, I felt pressured and unheard. Patients deserve to be treated with respect, honesty, and empathy. I truly hope the office takes this feedback seriously and prioritizes improving its patient communication and customer service.

    Very friendly here at this dentist office. The staff is very kind. I had dropped a paper that a…read morerandom stranger found and brought back into the office. One of the staff ended up emailing me the copy of the paper work. Which saved me a trip coming back. I haven't had any procedure here just yet but I have gotten x rays and the Dr did end up doing a full exam. I'm getting a cleaning today and I'm excited starting the holidays with a clean set of teeth.

    I chipped one of my front teeth this Friday afternoon. I panicked because it is a holiday weekend…read more(Labor Day) and I wanted it fixed right away. I called Madison Modern dentistry and they got me in for a Saturday morning appointment! They were running a new patient special so my exam and x-rays were only $59. The office itself is brand new with many modern technologies. Mari at the front desk checked me in - she was so patient, kind, and professional! Wenyue did my scan, x-rays and set the doctor up in the room. She is very knowledgeable, efficient, and personable. My dentist was doctor Shruti Kanda. She took her time in explaining my treatment plan to me. She did an excellent job matching the new filling to my other teeth. She gave me education for my post care in consideration of the work that was just done and the condition of my other teeth. It was a great experience considering it was an emergency for me. I will establish them as my new dentist office!
