We came to him for a complex tooth extraction and a state-of-the-art distal shoe placement--procedures that other doctors simply couldn't do. It is rare to find a specialist who can handle it with such ease and patience. The entire team is incredible. His assistant, Sonya, is a massive asset--experienced, efficient, and so kind to her patients. Maria at the front desk is just as wonderful; she greets you by name the moment you walk in and makes the whole process feel personal. Between their thoughtful text communication and their expert clinical care, they make you feel completely at home. You can absolutely trust this team with the most difficult cases. This was for a five year old patient. Thank you from Samuel and Anastasia.

The day my son was scheduled for treatment, we hit unexpected traffic and ended up running late. I called the office just to let them know we were still on the way and left a message since they were in a meeting. To my surprise, someone called me back almost immediately. Not only did they reassure me that everything was fine, but they also asked our ETA and told us to drive safely. That level of care alone was amazing. I've never had a clinic call me back so promptly--let alone show genuine concern and understanding. Anyone who lives in San Diego knows traffic is unpredictable no matter how early you leave, so that grace meant everything. When we arrived, they were ready for my son right away. We met Juliet, who was incredibly warm and friendly. What stood out most was how she took the time to explain everything to my 15-year-old before doing anything. This was his first real procedure beyond a cleaning, and that communication made all the difference. She even showed him the tools ahead of time, which helped ease his nerves tremendously. Her gentle spirit and patience did not go unnoticed. Then doctor Cuisia came in shortly after and was just as kind and reassuring. She explained exactly what was about to happen and got started right away. As a mom sitting there watching my baby have dental work done, I was nervous--but with these two women, I felt confident he was in excellent hands. Once the treatment was finished, my son said, "That wasn't so bad," though he made it clear he doesn't want to repeat it anytime soon . His mouth was numb for about three hours, and they were very thorough in explaining post-procedure care--especially warning him not to eat anything crunchy, hard, or chewy so he wouldn't accidentally bite the inside of his mouth. I truly appreciate how they educate both the kids and the parents. That alone sets them apart. I couldn't ask for a better dental practice for my kiddos. Thank you so much, Children's Dentistry of San Diego, for your compassion, patience, and top-tier care.

When looking for a dentist, choosing Dr. Eric was a no brainer. His Dad, Dr. Howard Dixon cleaned…read moremy teeth as a child and I grew up with his family in grade school. When I saw that he was in the family business I didn't think twice about making our 1st appointment. My instincts proved to be right. Dr. Eric and his staff did what seemed like the impossible. They got my 4 year old autistic twin boys to have their teeth cleaned and do x-rays all while thinking it was fun! I appreciated how they make the first visit very educational and welcoming for all. One of my boys had to have a tooth pulled. I was nervous about having him awake for the procedure. I didn't think he would sit still. I did not give my son or them enough credit! My son laughed and giggled the entire time while watching his favorite movie and didn't even realize Dr. Eric pulled his tooth until we told him what happened. We just went back 6 months later and my son ran up to the door saying, "Is this where I lost my first tooth?" all smiles. He was excited to go back in! The staff remembered my kids and came in just to say hello. When my son later told his grandmother about his visit he said, "Someone helped me brush my teeth!" The other son kept talking about his x-rays and how he got to see his big boy teeth behind his baby teeth. He thought that was really cool. They both also loved all the toys they earned while being there. I recommend Dr. Eric to all of my friends. They were able to take my twin boys, one of whom wouldn't open his mouth for anyone, and make it an enjoyable experience. 5 stars all around!

Told us they'd refund whatever insurance didn't cover. - They billed our insurance more than the quote. - The offered refund was less than the difference. - When it was time for our check, they told us they'd contact us when our check would be ready.

TL;DR Toxic Workplace, Engage at your Peril…read more You've gotten this far so you are looking past the heavily curated ratings. Good for you. If you have ever worked in a toxic workplace you will sense it here. No one smiles unless it's time to interact with you. Everyone is on pins and needles because they know the purpose: move as many kids through as possible, as quickly as possible, with as little attention to the individual as possible. They are fundamentally unhappy people, you can tell, when they greet you when they go through their scripted lines to get you moving as quickly as possible. A fake smile here to reassure the unwary. Toxic. It comes out in other ways too. If you ask too many questions, ask for alternatives, discuss what is happening, these are things that slow down the conveyor belt. These are absolutely not greeted with happiness, and can land you in hot water. This horrid, well polished treadmill will not give you the service your child deserves. Go elsewhere.

Before we found our way to Dixon Pediatric Dental, one dentist elsewhere had refused even to try, and another dental office proved to be too disorganized. In other words, not every provider makes the effort to ensure a positive experience. A provider who does make the effort should not be taken for granted. I am more than grateful for Dr. Kim Sauer's compassion and personal interest in helping my son maintain good dental health, and indeed for the helpful attitude of everyone I've encountered in the office. My two younger kids, who are developing normally, have always gone to Dr. Sauer in this dental office and are happy to go. My daughter has also been treated by their orthodontist.

Last week, my daughter saw Dr. Alvarado for the first time alongside Soli, who has been caring for my kids for years. Together, they were an absolute blessing.

Their kindness, patience, professionalism, and knowledge were evident from start to finish. They took the time to do a thorough exam, explained everything clearly, and made sure we felt informed and comfortable every step of the way. As a parent, there's nothing more valuable than knowing your children are in compassionate, capable hands. Dr. Alvarado and Soli truly embody that rare combination of excellence and heart.

I had an appointment scheduled and completed all of the required paperwork that was sent to me by…read morethe office right before my appointment time. After arriving, I was informed that the dentist was not in and that I would need to reschedule for another day. This was extremely frustrating and a complete waste of my time, especially since there was no advance notice or courtesy call before I came in. I also had to travel a long distance and waste gas to make it to this appointment, only to be turned away at the door. What made it even more concerning was being told that this "happens a lot." If this truly happens a lot, then maybe someone should pay attention and fix the issue instead of repeatedly inconveniencing patients. People arrange their schedules, take time off, travel, and make an effort to be on time for their appointments. Patients deserve better communication, better organization, and more respect for their time.
