Hi, I was looking…read moreforward of having surgery with Dr. Brad Hunt but after my consultation was finalized I was informed that I would be charged the visit despite me having provided my insurance. Later I called my insurance and found out they were out of network, I asked twice before my visit if my insurance would cover, I was misled to believe that it would and there would be no charges at the time of the visit. It extremely frustrating to be surprised with a bill after you are seen. What if I didn't have money to pay the visit? Be sure to ask if they are in network because the staff will lead you to believe they are.

I was scheduled to get a $13,000 surgery with Dr. Sirinian. I had a question for the doctor and…read morecalled the office requesting a call back. I was told I won't receive a call back. I let them know if I won't get a call back, I'll cancel my surgery. I was told to answer my question I needed to setup an appointment (pay more money to ask a question.) Instead I canceled. I should have checked this yelp page first. I found a highly rated doctor on yelp who called me personally before I even had a visit. I was quoted about $5000 for the surgery and got way better customer service. I am so glad I didn't have this arrogant man operate on me.

He gives by far the least-painful Lidocaine shots I have ever received, and he explains every procedure ahead of time and during the operation itself. He told me that he has had a lot of dental work himself, dating back to his undergrad days or earlier, and I think that has helped give him his natural empathy for his patients. As an added plus, his office has ample natural light and ventilation (yes, good old-fashioned openable windows).

When I switched jobs and my insurance changed, I was bummed to find out that Solana Family Dental…read morewas no longer in network. However, I am now happy to be back! They have changed their front desk staff who seem to be much friendlier as well. Also, they now have an in-office therapy dog who is SO cute and always comes to greet when I am in the waiting room! Their dental hygienists (their past ones and current one) are always so friendly and kind, and you can tell they are very passionate about dental health and they are always happy to explain what they are doing and educate how to maintain dental health. And I am a huge baby so I appreciate that they always give me numbing cream to make me more comfortable! Going to the dentist is never fun, but I feel I am in good hands at Solana Family Dental!

My first time at this office. It was modern, clean and staff were professional yet friendly. I saw…read morea new dentist there, Dr . Aalam. He was thorough in the exam and didn't oversell. I have a small mouth. Because of that the xrays cut my lower mouth under the tongue as usual .but Dr. put on a topical ointment that stopped the pain. I never had that treatment before and will always ask for that after ex rays. Hard to find consistency with medical and dental care so I hope Dr. Aalam is still there when I need yearly exams.

I was recommended to come here by a friend after having bad dentist experiences in my past. I was…read moreso nervous but the anxiety faded away as everyone was SO nice and professional here. Shoutout Anita and Tia the front desk ladies who were so kind, Zeena who did all my X-rays, teeth cleaning, and evaluations (she truly made my experience she was so sweet and made me feel so safe), and Dr. Sidhu who was the kindest dentist I've ever had. Zeena and Dr. Sidhu explained my problems in a way I could understand and made me feel like progress was achievable. They were so supportive and I left feeling happier than when I came in, and motivated to really take care of my teeth. So excited to have found this gem of a dentist team.

Dr. Andrew Lum = competent, precise, professional, gentle, super-caring…read more I was referred to Dr. Lum after my move to San Diego - I had problems with two old crowns that required extraction of the molars. Dr. Lum provided a day-ahead consult during which he explained all steps of the procedure as well as oral hygiene I should practice at home after the procedure. Very good communication and patiently answered my many questions. I appreciate that Dr. Lum chose to administer a local rather than a general for me, and for post-procedure he didn't prescribe heavy narcotics. He also recommended warm salt water for oral rinse rather than prescription that might stain my teeth. ONLY GOOD COMMENTS. Dr. Lum completely set my expectations. He and his tech assistant, Kim are rock stars - so confidence-inspiring I actually dozed for a moment during the procedure. Quite a soothing atmosphere that allowed me to sail through! Dr. Lum even gave me his cell # in case I experienced any issues at night - I didn't. AAA+

Dr…read more Mirkhan details everything out in advance, gives you your options, does only what you want and does not try to upsell you. Dr. Mirkhan takes time to explain things and make sure that all of your questions are answered, never making you feel rushed. I have a complicated medical history and Dr. Mirkhan and her staff (Diane and Emi) took extra care to make sure I was safe, that procedure was safe for me and that I was not going to be allergic to anything they were using or going to give to me. Because of my complicated medical history, I did a lot of research to find a new dental surgeon after recently moving back from Chicago. As stated by other reviewers, Dr. Mirkhan has many awards for her outstanding work and has been recognized by her peers and the community for the same. My personal experience has been exceptional and I would highly recommend Dr. Mirkhan and am incredibly happy to have found her! I will absolutely be returning to her for any future dental needs.

Avoid this place and this dentist if you want transparent and ethical care…read more I was overcharged on every single visit. I was charged for maintenance and a comprehensive evaluation on every visit, which is excessive and not in any way standard. I was charged for a deep cleaning without any local anesthetic, which amounts to a regular cleaning. And I was recommended to have an invasive surgery, and when I got second opinions by two other dentists and a periodontist, they all very confidently recommended against said procedure based on my XRs, probings and clinical picture and all three felt I was being recommended an unnecessary service.
