It was my first time coming to this dental office, which is located in a newer medical building attached to Sharp Hospital. Everything from social distance markings on the elevator floors to the receptionist wearing a mask, made me feel comfortable but I was still nervous as hell. Most people: "I don't like going to the dentist but Me: I have anxiety and a true fear of the dentist and needles, etc, that causes me to be nervous wreck the moment I even think about going, let alone actually sitting in the dentist chair. My ROOT CANAL experience. Dr. Sugita was AMAZING. I usually wear headphones with volume up so I can't hear anything. Dr. Sugita's calm voice and the methodical way he requested the next tool he needed was soothing and actually calmed me down. I'm not exaggerating this, but I DID NOT FEEL A THING! Not even the initial shot of novocaine, not the ones after. I usually feel everything and while the pain isn't much, it's the thought of the needle that gets me. The Doctor and his assistant were efficient and I was done in no time at all. In short, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DR. SUGITA

Dr. Stettler did not have good bedside manner with me. He was gruff and sarcastic. Does not like to answer questions. Spoke to me like I was stupid. During my actual surgery, they struggled to put the IV in my arm, leaving me with a lot of bruises on both arms. As I was being put under, it was chaos! No counting down calmly. The doctor was loud, lots of movement, he cut his hand on a sharp tooth of mine and was audibly upset about it. That's not the way someone should go under anesthesia for the first time! The procedure took much longer than expected but they did not provide any updates to my worried wife and mother both waiting in the lobby. When they finally were informed I was freaking out from the anesthesia when I woke up, they refused to let either of them come talk to me despite me begging as I knew it would calm me down. My family was wearing masks (covid) and were calm. There was no reason to refuse our request. When I finally did calm down, I was extremely nauseous. They didn't want to give me zofran and my mom actually had to call later in the day to push for them to prescribe it, as I was vomiting a lot when I got home. They did prescribe it, but it was confusing they didn't just do it to start. I did the follow-up and it was fine. I also would caution potential patients to read the business' response to reviews here. They teeter the line of HIPPA to save face, rather than accepting the feedback and providing more generalized responses to discuss privately. Before they say I wasn't a patient -- my legal name is Christine.

I will say that his dental work was very good, his bedside manor was the worst of anybody I working in the medical or dental care field I have ever seen. If your mouth started to close a little while he was working, instead of just saying "Open", he would jam an instrument into your gum. If your head was not in the perfect position he would jerk it where he wanted. I have never had any dentist come close to doing the crap he pulled. I just assumed he was bitter and was taking it out on his patients. Hopefully he will find some peace in retirement. Thanks for the heads up, not!!!!

I was sent here on a referral from my primary dentist. I had a loose implant that was wiggling. When I went for the initial visit, they assumed that I would need the implant totally removed based on the x-rays. This meant removing a titanium screw from my jaw bone. Preparing for hellacious pain. Luckily, when I went in for the surgery/removal, they just had to just tighten up the screw holding the implant after drilling out the top filling! It was a welcome surprise! Yay!!! No pain, and, got to keep the Vicodin prescription...! Most likely will go back to do some gum grafting for another future implant here so we'll see the results of that. We did a CT scan and surprisingly, found an issue with another tooth. Not good news of course. He has the most state-of-the-art equipment and technology here. So far, great professionalism and quality work!

I was referred here by Visionary Dental Arts and I swung by the day of to have a quick convo and they were able to get me a consultation within the next 48 hours which was clutch because my insurance plan was changing and I needed a quick turnaround time. The receptionist were quick, funny, and informative. They have an automated system to send you text reminders of your appointment plus a welcome video after you leave the office. For my consultation, I was running late because my dog became ill and they were gracious and worked with finding another time for me to come in. I arrived later that day and waited no more than 5 minutes in a crowded waiting room to go in and get my head scanned. I was put into the patient room with scans of my head and I met with 3 people. The assistant, then the doctor, then the payment specialist. Each one was welcoming and didn't talk to me entirely in jargon and technical terms. They made it a point to use the medical terms and then combine it with more common terms. It was in a way that didnt make me feel inferior or not smart. I then went and made an appointment for two weeks from there. A few days later, I called and asked if I can move it up and they were more than happy to do so as they had a last minute opening for extraction. On they day of my appointment, I came in, they went over a few paperwork, took payment, and then whisked me into the room. They asked what type of music I wanted to be played and told them some music from my home country and they were bopping along with me and asking questions about my country and sharing stories about their own. I was 3 minutes into the song before next thing I knew, I was being walked out to the car. Don't remember much but they mentioned how fun I was and that they enjoyed spending time with me. Apparently I was hilarious and grooving even in my sleep. Many thanks for their patience and care they provided me.

I had lost several front teeth and needed implants, and Dr. Wachtel handled the whole process with such warmth and compassion that it made an overwhelming situation feel manageable. She clearly cared about getting the outcome right -- not just functionally, but in a way that restored my confidence. Dr. Wachtel has since moved on, and the staff from my time there has likely turned over completely -- but what impressed me recently is that the current team was just as wonderful. When I reached out years later needing help obtaining my old records for an ongoing medical case, they were responsive, helpful, and went out of their way to assist me without hesitation. That kind of continuity of care and genuine helpfulness -- even for a patient from years ago with a completely different team -- says a lot about the culture this practice has maintained. Highly recommend.

This place is a used car lot scam, committing fraud and should be ashamed of how they are…read moreunethically treating patients who need care! This place is nothing but a big scam forcing people to buy optional services like those Cerec crown upgrades and making them seem medically necessary! I want to encourage all patients to know that you should ethically be getting a clear pre-treatment estimate to review with all your available treatment options. Your insurance-covered options vs optional upgrades should be clearly lined out and explained. If it feels overwhelming or confusing it is meant to be that way to confuse you on purpose. Request the billing codes for every procedure and call your insurance or download your insurance code booklet to see what your copay should be for each code before you buy anything. You can NOT trust this office to be clear or honest with you about your options! This office will lie to you!!!. The Cerec crown is not better in material that the PFM, it is mostly an upgrade for ease and convenience for the Dr so they only have to offer you one appt, avoid lab fees and can pay for their dumb in house Cerec milling machine. PFM crowns have been around and used for decades! and should be covered by most insurances. Get them, theyve been used for decades! If the dentist or clinic is forcing you to buy upgrades you dont want under pressure that is unethical balance billing and a violation not only of their code of ethics but their insurance contract! You can file a complaint or grievance with both your insurance company (who would love to threaten them with losing their contract) or their dental board (https://www.dbc.ca.gov/). Sadly, this place is just another example of how corrupt business models have taken over the Dental industry and turned essential healthcare into an unethical used car lot scam taking advantage of people who are desperate for health care like me. The entire dental industry needs a serious reckoning and massive lawsuit to stop all the fraud and ethical issues going on as a whole. I dont know how they get away with what they do because they are violating their own code of ethics and in-network HMO insurance contract daily. La Mesa Modern Dental is using products like those annoying Cerec crowns and bacterial laser treatments etc as a way to balance bill and off set unneeded costs and upgrades to patients without proper informed consent (if any at all!) among other violations. They lie to patients telling them they need treatments (called 'over treatment') they dont need draining their bank account thinking its essential care. They pressured me multiple times to get one of the Cerec crowns. I got two of them, and refused the third noticing the shady trend. I started wondering why all my teeth are suddenly having problems like "cracks and cavities," but when I went to another office for a second opinion no crack or cavity was found on my tooth!!, just a need to replace a filling. Dr Lemez was one of the worst high pressure sales Drs I have seen in a while. She told me I needed a crown when I only needed a filling. When I tried to inquire about getting a insurance-covered crown she deceptively told me that "insurance hasn't caught up to the materials of what's needed." I wasn't even offered what my insurance covers, instead I was given the impression that my insurance doesn't cover my medically necessary needs so I was then expected to offset and cover the costs on my own or not receive care! The insurance companies would love to know Dr Lemez is doing this and yank her/their contract! Stephanie the billing lady at this office just does the Drs bidding and is avoidant, and wont explain the bills clearly. Id stay away from this office especially for higher level services like anything having to do with periodontal care or crowns!! These are all scams!! Don't be afraid to file a complaint with your insurance company and let them know about the unethical practices and high pressure sales being used at this office! They need accountability.
