    Professionally, Dr. Nguyen always takes care of me and does what is good for me. She takes the time…read moreto explain the situations, the good and the bad. Personally, she treats me like her own relative. Doreen is very knowledgeable about her job. She looks out for patients e.g. what is best for your schedule and financial situations. Money is tight nowadays, I learned that she tried to help me find the best deal per my insurance. I'm appreciated her efforts. Sincerely, Sopheap

    Please DO NOT give this office your business. I went into Dr. Nguyen's office looking for a new…read morelocal dentist. Her staff was personable enough, but the work she did was so terrible I had to get it RE-DONE just weeks later. My new dentist was appalled that she would have allowed me to leave her office and arranged to have x-rays sent to my insurance company to explain why I had to have re-work done so quickly. The insurance company and my new dentist asked that she PAY ME BACK for the work she did. I went in for regular dental work and needed two fillings. I warned her up front that since I was a pre-teen, I have had a very abnormal reaction to numbing agents. It takes A LOT to get my numb. This is because I have a central nerve that runs VERY close to the surface. I have had multiple doctors confirm this. She said okay, no problem. When the work started she gave me one round of numbing and tried to start work. I told her, "I'm sorry this is very painful. I told you I am a little different." She said, "Oh you just need some more time for it to work." OK. She tried again 15 mins later. Again, INTENSE pain. I said, "Please, I am telling you, this is still painful." She reluctantly gave me another round and waited another 20 mins. (Mind you I am now 45 mins in the chair and nothing has been done). She tried again and I said it was better, but still could feel things. She said, "You shouldn't be able to feel this." And I reminded her for a THIRD time that I have a different physiology than many. She then leaned into me and asked, "Well I know you may not want to say this, but are you on drugs?" EXCUSE ME?!! "Well this would happen if you were a heavy recreational drug user. You should just tell me if you're an addict. That would make this easier." I was STUNNED. I had warned her prior to doing ANY of this that I have had trouble with numbness and THIS was her reaction?! It sadly bears stating, that I am a black woman... I hope that is not why she made this ridiculous and offensive assumption, but ..... "NO." I told her. "I am NOT an addict or drug user. This is exactly what I told you about before we started nearly an hour ago." "OK if you insist... but it really would make things easier." I wanted to get up and walk out, but I am now mid-drilling (she did SOME before I couldn't take the pain anymore) and I didn't know how to leave with my mouth LITERALLY mid-procedure. When she finally gave a final round of numbing agent and I could take it. But since we were so far behind she kept stopping the work and going to work on OTHER PATIENTS in the middle of my procedure. Finally 2 hours in on 2 fillings, she barely buffed my fillings and said...OK you'll have to come back another time for me to finish. The feeling in my mouth was UNBELEIVABLE. The filling was so rough I could feel my tongue was going to be rubbed raw. My jaw was ACHING (I have TMJ) from holding it open for 2 hours. And what I didn't know is that her work was so harsh that my gums would recede. They are STILL (a year later) not normal and I have to have my new dentist put a protective sheath around them every 6 months or so to prevent pain because my gums have never been normal again around those teeth. My new dentist is lovely. She Immediately LISTENED when I told her about my issue with numbing and I have NEVER had a problem again. When she saw the work Dr. Nguyen had done, she was so disturbed she said she wanted to make sure she documented the HORRENDOUS work she did so that it could be corrected without me having to pay out of pocket. (Insurance companies will not pay for duplicative work in the same 6 month period without documentation.) The insurance company agreed to pay -- process that. I asked my new dentist what I should do about this. I was traumatized, discriminated against and my teeth were REALLY messed up. She said the only thing I could do would be to ask for the portion of the work I paid for to be returned. When I called Dr. Nguyen's office to explain. Her staff was again, kind but all I received from her was a folded blank piece of paper in the mail from Advanced Dentistry, with a check for $248. PLEASE DO NOT GIVE Dr. NGUYEN YOUR BUSINESS. DO NOT TRUST HER WITH YOUR DENTAL HEALTH. PLEASE don't be me.

    Dr. Carl Johnson removed my wisdom teeth and I had a fantastic experience! The office was clean and…read morethe staff was very knowledgable and kind. I had such a good experience there that years later when I was in an accident and I had my front tooth knocked out I returned to Dr. Johnson for my dental implant. I have never had any issues with the implant and it's now been 17 years!! Go see Dr. Carl! I recommend him to everyone :)

    still fighting pain and agony after 2 years , from crappy implant job by oral surgeon carl johnson…read more I was 70 when i went in for a couple of teeth problems ( two teeth needed to be implant replaced) I was told by dr carl that it was much worse....said my lower jaw had lost bone density, & could break at any time. as his "proof" i was shown the film he took....(which was a faked up mess , i later found) I am a thyroid cancer survivor, he said the cancer treatments had weaked my jaw bone density, and scared me with horror stories of what could happen if I didnt do something immed. dr carl johnson then told me all my teeth were loose, couldnt be saved, & needed full implants upper & lower, asap. carl j. reccomended another dentist for "independent"second opinion ( who I later found was a shill for him) that dentist verified that ALL my teeth had become loose, needed full implants upper & lower...immed surgery. by then I was really scared. i questioned about allergy testing first, in case of allergic reactions from acrylics & metals they would perm plant into my jaw.... he assured me not necessary . (I later found much of my pain & sick was because i had strong reaction to the substandard acrylics used.) so I decided to go ahead & have the four hour surgery to remove my teeth, & put in full implants. as i was going under anesthesia, he "asked" if i minded observers, i was not able to respond, he allowed 3 others in, to observe, and, i suspect , to "practice " on me. as i faded out i heard them laughing. Surgery lasted 8 hours, not four, i bled huge amounts, thought i was dying when sent home. months & months of very bad pain, unable to eat any but liquids, terrible fitting implants, sick all the time. found that 2nd opinion dentist had mad the denture implants himself. even tho he was not licensed to do so. . so now after multipal surgergical procedures, I have less pain...still cannot eat except liquids. been to several attorneys who said dr johnson was proveably at fault...but was so well insured against lawsuits that case could drag on for years and an average person would be bankrupted before case even went to trial. this guy is a conman , a bully, and dishonest. BEWARE!! my quality of life has been ruined. i can only hope for others to join for class action lawsuit.
