I have tried to write this review so many times over the last decade but its so difficult to put…read moreinto a writing the impact Dr. Machado has had. Dr Machado performed a double jaw surgery on me in 2012 - thirteen years ago. I really haven't been able to put into words that he completely changed my entire life. I cannot express enough gratitude and thanks for being able to live the last 13 years happy with my face, after hating looking in the mirror for my entire life prior. Dr Machado is the single most pivotal person in my life after my family. No longer having my appearance be a daily negative factor in my life is best gift I could have ever received. Dr. Machado and his office fought hard for my parents to get the surgery approved through insurance, made a critical last minute decision to go for double jaw surgery instead of having to do two as originally planned, which was so amazing. He was available during my after care and I always felt like I was in good hands and that he was available should I ever need him... which I did a couple years later. My favorite experience was a year or so later when I came back in to get a screw removed - Dr Machado looked at my face and said something to the effect of "I could lowered the top teeth slightly more" - which is something I had considered in passing. I am more than thrilled with my face, its an absolute success by every measure and by any other doctor would be considered 'perfect' - but I am even more appreciative that Dr. Machado cares down the millimeters and scrutinizes your face just as much or more as you do. He is a true artist and a perfectionist. When you undergo this type of surgery you need to have someone you can trust with your appearance, especially in the trying times when you have to wait months to a year for the final result. Dr. Machado is someone who can and will deliver that for you. Thank you for completely changing the entire direction of my life. Thank you for giving my the self confidence I never had. Thank you for my face! Thank you so much!

This review is LONG overdue....had a tooth extracted July of last year; referred by my dentist…read more Dr. Dentico-Olin and his staff are very polished ...everything went off without a hitch, and the recovery was easy due to their excellent work. I felt very cared for and the doctor & staff were very sensitive to my anxiety about dental procedures....it was about as painless and pleasant as possible. I'm very grateful to my dentist, Dr. Paul Martin (another gem!) for his confidence in and referral to this office. Thank you all for your excellent care!

August 2, 2024. Like many of you, I am enjoying the Olympics and watching those, (with skills that…read moreare 'best in the world' ) -seek to excel, at those skills at the critical moments. Well, after having just completed a third, major oral surgeries with Dr. Olin over the last two years, to resolve my very serious dental problems, I honestly consider Dr. Olin as himself, 'World Class/Best' in his chosen profession, (while being very kind and compassionate too) and I assure you that he treats (EVERY) surgery, (EVERY) patient, just as seriously and professionally as an Olympic Athlete does, ---seeking their own gold medal. I don't say this lightly or without considerable thought. Not only is he superb in all ways, (but he surrounds himself with equally talented and caring staff and nurses), all operating as a close knit team - (within his rigid standards and procedures), and with 'state of the art equipment/technology, that all-together deliver an extraordinary and 'pain free as possible' result. If you have a serious dental problem/challenge, I simply couldn't recommend him any more and you would be well served by choosing him as your doctor/surgeon to help you.

Dr. Taylor and the medical staff were exceptional (experts) performing my dental implant under…read morelocal anesthesia. Everything was explained during the process and took only 10-15 minutes. The instructions for post-surgical care made it easy to heal with no pain. I am appreciative for the quality care by Dr. Taylor, the Medical Team and the Front Office! Thank you very much.

Absolutely incredible patient care !…read more My 93 year old mother had resisted extraction of an infected tooth for almost 2 years....as fortunately it was draining and amazingly didn't cause her any discomfort or sickness. But at last week's periodic dental appointment her luck ran out and immediate removal was ordered. However her regular dental office could not give her a Periodontist consultation until almost TWO months.....and after that ( in middle of the holidays) who knows when they'd schedule the actual extraction?? In this case of a really senior citizen I saw a possible matter of Life and death if infection spread to her sinuses or eventual septicemia. Fortunately her clinic gave me phone references of some oral surgery clinics. The first one I called didn't treat patients over 85. BUT we were SO fortunate that the Center for Oral and Facial Surgery offered her an immediate appointment !! Literally I called about 1 pm Friday and they offered mom a spot at 930 the following Monday!!!!! And this wasn't just a pre- operative consultation...but the actual extraction. Her luck continued getting DR. TAYLOR.... young, sharp and current with modern dental practices. He also handled mom really well psychologically to adjust his technique when she refused sedation at the last minute to only want local lidocaine numbing. In total the procedure took about 20 minutes! And I felt the pricing was very reasonable for the HIGH QUALITY of Dr Taylor's EXCELLENT care. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this excellent practice!

Horrible place, please don't come here Dr. Steven Podstreleny was very rude, he squeezed my arm…read morewith the rubber band so hard it left a mark to try to give me anesthesia. I asked him this morning to please loosen the rubber band on my right arm and so he refused to finish my oral surgery or give me anesthesia and asked me to get up and leave. This is so unprofessional. Not only was he rude to me, so was his staff. The dental assistants had attitudes and pushed me down into my seat. Also the dentist sexually harassed me when he picked up the television controller off my lap by pushing his hands towards my vagina area. He also yelled and screamed at me to shut up and get out of his dental office. I am a certified nursing assistant, and none of the nurses or me have ever treated a patient that way, whether on medi-cal or on regular insurance. Dr. Steven's actions at park blvd oral surgery is patient abuse and will not be tolerated. Me as a single mother of two children am disgusted with this dentist and refuse to go back to allow him to try to ruin my teeth or abuse me again. He's unprofessional and obviously uneducated in his field of work. I work full time as a CNA at a healthcare center and I pay taxes for dentist who take medi-cal or medi-care so he should have more respect and stop abusing the patients who are low-income thinking he is getting away with it. I'm a mandated reporter also.
