They took X-rays and did an exam, and got me set up with an endodontist for a root canal. One thing to note (important, but not necessarily negative): I have Delta Advantage dental coverage, and the office does not take payment directly from them (though, as a courtesy, they do submit the claim). You have to pay up front and get reimbursed. From my limited experience with their care and demeanor, it's worth it. Now that the emergency has passed, I've scheduled a routine checkup and intend on becoming a regular patient.

Couldn't ask for nicer doctors & staff. I have seen Dr. Vick got a number of years. Always a great…read moreexperience-NOT like I used to dread going to a dentist. He has always been great and recently added Dr. Lafon to his office. My 94 year old mother hadn't been to the dentist since before Covid. Decided to try her with Dr. Lafon. Superlatives all the way around. She did X-rays, thorough exam & teeth cleaning. Mom came out exclaiming how nice everybody was. Made a 6 month cleaning appointment for the same day/time as my scheduled cleaning. Easy peasy! Would give 10 stars if I could!!!

I started going to Dr Stagis in 2010, and have been extremely pleased. I had a lot of work that…read morehad to be done because I had not been to the dentist in years. Dr Stagis replaced a couple fillings and did 2 partial crowns. I was really impressed with the Crown process, and that I didn't have to get anything temporary, because he designs and makes the crown while you are there. Here I am 6 years later, and I've had no issues at all with any work he has done. He has always been pleasant, courteous and professional. I really did get the impression that he is a specialist, and truly knows his craft. The whole staff is great too, by the way!

Changing to a different dentist is tough. In fact, I've only changed in the past because of…read moreinsurance or because I moved. In taking with colleagues, the same name kept coming up, Dr. Gates. Apparently this guy was supposed to know the newest technologies and had a reputation of doing great work. Let me give you my experience as a first time customer (who, btw, is very picky!) I contacted the office and spoke with Stephanie (spelling?). She was so professional and offered to retrieve my record from my past dentist so I didn't have to deal with it. I told her I wanted to follow up and she gave me multiple ways to submit them digitally. She offered to set an appointment based on my schedule and they were able to get me in last minute without any fuss. I even forgot to get my records, and she followed up a few days before offering once again to help me. I've never had someone so "on the ball". I was also able to fill out my paperwork by downloading it off their site so I didn't have to do it in the office. Time saver! When I walked in I spoke with Jessica, who was amazingly friendly. Usually in the medical field people are too busy to have a decent conversation, or they simply would care less. We spoke for a while and she really was interested in getting to know me as a person rather than customer. What a rare talent. Stephanie even came up and joked around a bit. I was glad I finally met her in person. Dr. Gates came out and personally said hello. He told me it will only be a few minutes. Has that ever happened to you at a doctor's office???? I was there for like 10 minutes and the Doctor already came out of greet me. Jennifer came out front and said she'll be handling the x-rays. I was surprised how many good looking people there are in this office. Seriously! It's like a modeling agency in there!!! I told him I'm not one for changing dentists but everyone I knew kept talking about how good he is, so I had to come. I explained that I was very limited in my budget, and he offered so many options for saving money. I've never had a dentist able to work on my own budget. It's usually, "well, we gotta do it and we have a credit policy." Dr. Gates and his team worked with the little money I had and the outcome was amazing. Jennifer was very professional and gave me insight on each step of the way. I noticed that this team had a tendency to tell you what's about to happen before it happens. Maybe it was because I get nervous around dentists, but they explained EVERYTHING in a way I could understand. Of all my years going to the dentist, Dr. Gates was by far the most sophisticated, friendly, fun and outgoing person. He did some minor cosmetic stuff that has been bothering me for years (from other sloppy dentist work). "It's part of our service," he said. Dr. Gates & his team are a dream come true. I had to write a novel because I want everyone to know of my eye-opening experience. You never know what you've been missing until you meet someone like so talented!

Dr. Ohanesian and his staff are exemplary in every way possible. I'm not a skilled enough writer to…read morereally do this justice, but I'll try! I moved to Coarsegold from the Bay Area and hadn't yet identified a new dentist. It started the night a veneer fell off, front and center of my smile, the night before flying out for an important event the next morning. Panicked, I reached out to Dr. Ohanesian and to my amazement, he texted me back (at 11PM!) and had me come in before normal working hours in order to squeeze me in. He completely saved the day! I just went back to take care of a couple of things and just can't say enough regarding how kind, patient, compassionate, funny, and what a great dentist he is. Making a living is of course important, but he is clearly not in it just for the money. This man clearly loves what he does. He has integrity. He encourages saving teeth when possible instead of more profitable alternatives, goes at your pace financially, and is super respectful --He goes above and beyond to best serve his patients, and every member of his staff is equally nice! You rarely see this anymore-- The bar is high here : ) Thank you for being my dentist, Dr. Jack!

I am seen primarily by Dr. Cho and she is great--very kind and explains her treatment process thoroughly. Appointments with dental work specifically (cleanings, fillings, etc) are easy to reschedule within a few days of your original appointment which I appreciate due to my busy work schedule. However one area they could definitely improve on is their availability of their Sure Smile (Invisilign) appointments and services. This office HEAVILY pushes invisilign and has signs and plaques all over the office claiming they are in the top 1% of invisilign providers. However these appointments are very difficult to come by. If I have to reschedule an appointment to get my new aligners, the average wait time is a month to get a new appointment. One time, my aligners were lost in the mail and the office had to reschedule and it was 6 weeks out to reschedule. It's pretty annoying and creates a significant setback for the treatment schedule. I feel they should have more RDAs to provide these services since they push it so much.

Well, those pills did not work so they decided to give me a shot of I don't know what to help calm me down. The shot did not work either, it actually gave me the worst anxiety that I ever had. I think I became belligerent to where they were going to call the paramedics to come take me to the hospital. The next day I called that dentist office and they told me that I need to go see a sedation dentist and I Could never come back to their office again. They referred me to Dr. Smith. when I got there I was still a little afraid but they were so kind and warm and welcoming so I decided to allow Dr. Smith and his staff to perform the deep cleaning, cavity fill, crown and put an implant post in at the same time under anesthesia. The experience was amazing! They did not make me feel like I was a big crybaby because I was, they treated me with respect and kindness. And at the age of 59 years, you would think that I would be able to handle simple procedures but can't. I do recommend Dr.Smith's office if you're afraid of going to the dentist. Go and get that smile you deserve! I did!! Thank you Dr Smith and staff from the front office to the back office... and his anesthesiologist was the greatest I've ever dealt with!

My fear was that I was going to need to have that tooth pulled and they weren't going to be able to help me today.

Everyone I interacted with was so nice and listened to my concerns. I am extremely pleased with my visit and I already have another appointment set to come back in. I will continue to come to this office. Thank you to everyone in this office for their help.
