    Friendly staff, clean establishment, welcoming environment…read more I was greeted by the friendliest reception and front desk staff. They all smiled and was pleasant towards me. They were speaking on the phone to other patients and kept a friendly and calm demeanor and tone. I met with the dental hygienist Amanda H. and she was so patient and kind. I expressed that I was a coward and she was so compassionate and she had a gentle hand. She explained every step of the process and put my mind at ease. After a short while, Dr. Wong came in and did his examination. He was so nice and had the best bedside manner. He was efficient and thorough and answered all my questions. This is a place that I would highly recommend.

    I was beyond unhappy with my experience here…read more The good part is that it is a lovely office and a lot of the people here are very friendly. The front desk staff is amazing. The not so good part is a bit lengthier unfortunately and sort of based on my personal experience. A little back story is that I'm a disabled vet, so generally, all of my care is handled at the VA hospital. Occasionally, when they are very backed up and overwhelmed, they will outsource you to a place in town and foot the bill for it though. Enough back story... Last year, I needed to have a new oral appliance (think like a retainer) made for my sleep apnea when my old one was damaged and the VA sent me here. This place gets the referral from the VA and I have my appointment to come in to have the imprint/mold made to make the appliance. Awesome! Except... they won't make the mold until they do a cleaning. Fair enough. It has been about a year since my last one. Let's do it. But wait... It is going to be a BIG job, so they want to break it up into two deep cleaning sessions and only do half of my mouth each time. *Sigh* Okay. Whatever gets me closer to being able to sleep again. Two separate cleaning appointments later and I go back for another appointment to have my imprint made and, wouldn't you know, I have a cavity that needs filling and they can't make the imprint until after that gets filled. *Annoyed sigh* After that filling, they can't make my imprint because they aren't happy with one of my previously done fillings, and can't (or won't) make it until after they rip out the filling that is already there and redo it. *Frustrated grunt* But they handle all the insurance stuff with the VA, so I just let them do it. I am still in UNBEARABLE pain a week later. I call because at this point, I am pretty sure they messed something up with the filling because even my wisdom teeth removal stopped hurting after two days. They will happily schedule me to come in and check if they messed up... After they clear it with my insurance and receive confirmation for payment. Which was the first time I actually got upset because I am in constant pain, still can't sleep, and they are charging to see if they messed up... Everything gets cleared up and I finally get to go back in after they are sure they will get paid. Obviously they say they did everything right, but they want to schedule another appointment for me to see about a root canal or extraction. But, they will not make my imprint until after I take care of that tooth that is "not messed up". At this point, my perception is that they were intentionally drawing out services to get the VA to pay for them. Whether or not that is actually the case, I still had to reach out to the VA, who did agree that it felt like I was being strung along and was no closer to getting the imprint for my sleep device. They immediately sent me to someone else who DID make the imprint and the device and I was finally able to sleep about 1.5 months later. Again, this is just my perception of my experience here, but I am very happy that I was not the one having to pay for every single appointment, especially a follow-up when I was pretty sure they messed it up.

    I feel I was assaulted with a dental drill by the tech at this dentist office who likes to talk…read moreabout her Lexi's car . When the dentist allowed her to help put a cap on my uncovered tooth that had been just received a root canal, she already knew WITHOUT the cap the tooth was very sensitive to pain because the dentist already tested it after I came to the appointment just to see the sensitivity. When She proceeded to go into my mouth I'm wondering what she doing (he already tested it, and she knows it's painful . So, (without the cap to put on my tooth) she used the drill and said "I want you to see something " she took the drill and hit my naked tooth with that instrument the dentist did and then said "(you can get somebody else if you want)." She hit that uncovered tooth with the drill so fast I almost jumped out the seat it hurt so bad. I read in these reviews where the Doctor or hygienist used anesthetic on someone's gums while scaling back their teeth? I was not ever offered pain relief for scaling. I was told "all the patients took the pressure and pain!". They tried to do my scaling by digging with a sharp instrument in my gums until I screamed in pain. The hygienist thought it was a joke because I was so upset . They did not numb me nor warn me about the pain of having to go into my gums with a sharp instrument. I believe I was assaulted with dental instruments and then made a joke of . I am afraid to go back there after those experiences to tell them my dentures (they made) hurt so bad and look so bad I can't wear them almost not at all. Food gets stuck in the tooth that had the root canal because it's indented and not smooth. They kept trying to get $100.00 out of me at this dentist office. Kept saying you owe us $100.00 but never told me why. I never understood anyway because My dental care was totally insured . So, they finally backed off asking me. But, I believe I was being billed for something I didn't get. When they figured they couldn't just take my money without explanations they just said forget about it. When has a business ever said forget about $100.00?

    Absolutely the worst experience of my Life. They over charge…read moreand under deliver. They also magically made an almost $700 cash payment disappear. Lesson learned, don't tell them it's "ok to email a receipt"!!! I wouldn't recommend this dentist to my worst enemy. Horrible experience all the way around!!!!

    This practice has come a long way after taking over from Dr Lynn. Initially I was not sure as to if…read morethey would carry on the good work after Dr Lynn retired, but they have improved it quite and the staff make me feel at home and I am very statisfied with my cleanings and extraction.

    Saw a GroupOn for a $69 teeth cleaning, checkup and xrays so I decided to give this place a try…read more What a dive! It's tiny little office, not in the best part of town, with a tiny parking lot that holds maybe 4 cars... so you'll likely be parking on the street. The furniture, decor and equipment are old & worn looking and the receptionist is behind what appears to be sliding bulletproof glass. I had to wait about 30 mins after my appmt time before I was taken to the exam room. The dentist is from West Africa and didn't introduce himself so I thought he was the hygienist until I asked. He seemed to be confused with what to do at first, so I sat there staring at the walls and ceiling while he silently milled around. After about 5 mins, he started lightly poking around in my mouth with one or two instruments. I wasn't sure if he was doing the exam or the cleaning. (I later found out he was doing the "cleaning".) After he finished poking around and doing minimal scraping (for only 5 mins), he told me the hygienist would be in to finish. I thought the hygienist would give me the thorough cleaning the dentist didn't, but she immediately applied polish to my teeth, buffed them, and sent me on my way. (!?) What a rip-off! The dentist fooled with my teeth for 5 mins, then the hygienist polished them for another 5 mins... and that was it! No deep cleaning -- not even flossing! For $69!! They didn't perform a checkup or xrays either! Adding insult to injury, the woman working the front desk, who checks you in & out, was working her first day I believe. She didn't know how the computer system worked so she had to keep interrupting the one hygienist for instructions. Meanwhile I waited for about 5 mins to leave. I've purchased GroupOn's in the past for dental cleanings and checkups and I've always been satisfied and felt I got a good deal. Not this time -- avoid this place. Maybe they were just short staffed this day, but after what I experienced, I wouldn't trust them.
