    Wonderful man. Brilliant, kind, friendly (if you need that). Again they took me right away and…read moretreated me so kindly. No extra charges. Just great people.

    My initial review of this office was very positive. I had been a patient elsewhere, and upon coming…read morehere, I was immediately impressed with the technology. Fast, non-invasive x-rays, the ability to fabricate crowns in-house, huge staff...felt like it was a step in the right direction. Fast forward to now, and I feel differently. I had one crown done, as a tooth had cracked. I was given a $1,000 estimate with the standard disclaimer that I'll be responsible for the actual amount. No problem, I know the drill, as I have had dental work done in the past. The problem was their "estimate" was 100% off, and now I'm being asked to pay $2,000 for a crown that was supposed to be $1,000. From my perspective, if my job was to deal with insurance companies on a daily basis and I had hundreds of patients and thousands of EOBs, I should be able to get closer than being half-way to the actual price. I can't help but feel like I was taken advantage of. Had I known the actual price, I likely would have shopped around and had the work done elsewhere. On my next cleaning visit, the dentist told me I needed something like 6 or 7 MORE crowns. How many of those are medically necessary, and how many are to add billable income, since they cost so much more than insurance covers, AND can be done in-house?

    One of the scariest parts of going to the dentist is seeing the bright lights, pointy tools,…read morefeeling the clinking against your teeth, and having a mean and rough person ripping your jaws apart, all while you have no idea what is going on. Then on top of that, having to be berated on not flossing or brushing enough, when you already know you haven't been doing it. Fortunately, not only does the team explain everything in detail without having to be asked, but they are also very non-judgmental with their approach and recommendations. I know I have not been flossing enough, and I usually have to mentally prepare to be scolded by the dentist for this, but the team here acknowledges the issues that they analyze and then provide solutions, all with a kind tone and smile. This alone is a reason why I would come back here. My wife has been going here for 2 years now and after waiting to get in, I am pleased to report that the quality of care I received was excellent. Admittedly, the appointments are booked out months ahead, but compared to another dental office I visited in the SLO area, their service is just a whole different level. The staff are all very kind and welcoming, from Andrea who brought me in and did my X-Rays, to Dr. Milch who analyzed my X-Rays and gave me recommendations on next steps, to my dental hygienist, Megan, who not only cleaned my teeth extremely well, but also explained all the tools and the whole process of what she was doing next. Compared to other dentists I have been to before, I would say that the care I received is the gold standard for dental care.

    What an awful experience I had at this dental office. I…read moredrove to my appointment today and paid my copay. The hygienist was late and I had a busy day. She offered to reschedule me for the next morning and to waive the $50 appointment cancellation fee. However, as soon as I left the office they started messaging me asking me to pay the fee. When I communicated with them about this fee being waived, they refused to honor what the hygienist had told me. When I politely questioned this, they promptly dismissed me as a patient. I am in shock and deeply upset by this whole situation. I will attach our communications as an image, to warn off potential future patients.

    I have had YEARS of frustration with this lab. I personally went in 4 years ago for a 'custom color…read morematch' which resulted in many years with a crappy FRONT tooth the wrong color. Very frustrating to me. Fast forward, same tooth and now need an implant, knocked it out ay age 11 and am now 41. Did the implant process, and my dentist ordered a temp 'flipper' (tooth on a retainer). The tooth, as my dentist puts it 'looks like they took it out of a drawer and threw it on a retainer.' TOTALLY wrong color. Thank God for COVID and mandatory masks?? I have to wear this thing on my FRONT tooth for 4 months! My dentists asks them to redo it. New impressions, this is fun. Have an appointment for new flipper 'install,' what do you know, not done on time. Rescheduled, middle of another work day.... and despite the detailed instructions this place 'takes it upon themselves' to grind down the custom abutment in the impressions so, as usual, the flipper doesn't fit. Fun times. Let's waste more time. I'd like to interject, they also did my retainer, 3 years ago, which DIDN'T FIT. This was a separate procedure and I specifically recall the dentist saying, 'this lab doesn't get it.' FOUR encounters of a one star with this company. I can't comprehend how they are even in business. Literally, I am terrified for the final front crown. I will be asking my dentists to use a REAL lab who can read instructions and produce a decent product.

    I have used Noel Laboratories for the past 20 years and been very pleased with they're knowledge,…read moreproduct quality, consistency and responsiveness. John and Steve have always stayed ahead of the technological curve while continuing to make mindful decisions between durability, aesthetics and predictability of new product offerings. They have always offered exceptional support providing easy phone access for clinical problem solving, in office visits for complex aesthetic restorative evaluations and an excellent history of warranting their work even when the problem might have been a clinical apparition. I would just like to say thank you Noel for 20 years of support and I hope we both can continue to impact this community with beautiful smiles, our exceptional staff and as much fun in the years to come. I recommend Noel Laboratories highly. They truly are exceptional.
