I cannot say enough good things about Southern Smiles Dental Practice. I have not been to a…read moredentist in years plus I had a broken front tooth making me look like a pumpkin. I had a terrible experience as a child preventing me from seeking proper dental care. When I finally got the nerve to call, I was able to ask questions surrounding my anxiety and immediately felt at ease. I was able to get in for an emergency appointment the following week and scheduled a 3 hour appointment for 4 weeks later to clean my teeth and fix my broken tooth. My anxiety kicked in when I arrived and sat in the parking lot. I am so thankful I went in. I have never felt so comfortable in a dental office. The entire staff is amazing, but Rosie is the absolute best! She took care of me on both appointments and made sure I was comfortable throughout the process of deep cleaning and fixing my broken tooth. I took the option of being knocked out for the procedure. The price was reasonable and can be done at their office which is not common. For the first time in my life, I look forward to going to the dentist. I have more work ahead and I cannot wait to go (yes, this must sound crazy). I love them so much I made an appointment for my husband and brother to pay them a visit. I wish I could give them 10 stars. Thank you Dr. Long and your entire staff. Colleen Eberle

Stay away from this business. Front Office staff are completely rude, condescending and…read moreunprofessional. I had a scheduled appointment scheduled for 8am, but was running a little bit late. I received a call from a lady at the front desk around 8:10am "why are you not at your appointment you are funning late." I informed her that I was sorry and running a little late and could be there in about seven minutes. She let me know very condescendingly that "well that is not going to work you are halfway into your appointment." Ok fine, well can I please reschedule, even if it is a ways out? "Well I can see what I can do but I hope you know you are going to be charged!!!!" The staff members tone and demeanor was basically treating me like a child and how dare I be 20 minutes late to an appointment at their establishment. I understand that it was my fault for being late but to be treated and spoken to like a child and threatened to be charged for making an honest mistake is not superior customer service. Will be finding a new dentist and not patronizing this business and recommend anyone else considering this establishment to do the same.

It's just a world of uncomfortable experiences for me. I've had some less than stellar hygienists who have carelessly cleaned my teeth and end up poking me in the process, and then the chatty cathy who turns a teeth cleaning into a an hour long therapy session. In my experience having my teeth filled and cleaned I've been exceptionally pleased with the team at this office. I had a very eaten up molar that the Dr. basically built from scratch... saving me from a root canal! Despite their nitrous not working on the day I came in, I was able to sit through the procedure without my usual anxiety and stress. A year later and and I'm still very pleased with the results. Their office equipment is kept updated, clean, and is state-of-the-art. All the faces at the front desk are warm and friendly as well. Thank you to Dr. Vartabedian's team for making me look foward seeing the dentist!

I…read moreread tooth extraction techniques on the internet and I found that he did not follow any NORMAL extraction guidelines.He did not even TRY to loosen the tooth as mentioned in the ADA manual. I truly believe he intentionally snapped the root to collect more money from medi-cal for a root extraction .....that or he is a sadist. I have had 7 other teeth extracted some by other dentists at this clinic and I have never had an experience like this one. I could have done a better job using a back-hoe! I have done a better when I once pulled one of my own teeth with a pair of pliers. If you go to Mendo Clinic dont let this guy jerk you around. Beware !!

He looks very very old but does the cleaning himself; pulled my hair several times because he put his armpit on the top of my head to keep me still I suppose. He loves birds and wanted to know if I liked birds; I prefer furry animals but I was afraid he would get upset if I said so; I felt intimidated by his staff woman who stood over me; gave me a long document to sign and would not move; stood over me, rushed me to sign, said it was necessary to have my signature and hurried me to sign a la Gestapo method. To this day I don't know what I signed. I get nervous going to a dentist but this was intimidating, I left confused and kind of upset; like "what just happened?".

While he had my mouth open he said to me "do you know you have a very small mouth?' I shook my head because I couldn't talk. Then he said has nobody ever told you that like a husband or boyfriend? Omg! Not only was it inappropriate but he made assumptions about my sexuality. In the same visit I told him that I tried to get into tribal dentist but you are required to be a medical patient. He went off on a tyrant about how he doesn't get any help and doesn't feel like he should have to pay for them because he never stole anything from the native Americans. SMH.

I live in Eureka, CA. The one and only oral surgeon in Eureka could not get me in for 2 months. There is no way I could wait. My regular dentist recommended the office of Dr. Steven R Boettger and Dr. William K Tom in Ukiah CA. Ukiah is a bit of a drive from Eureka but I could get an appointment is less than a week instead if waiting for 2 months. Dr. Tom is so wonderful! His staff is most excellent too. Dr. Tom, my regular dentist, and my thoracic surgeon and the only 3 medical people ever who engendered trust in me and put me at ease immediately like they do. I don't know how they manage that but it is a rare skill. I especially liked the way Dr. Tom explained everything thoroughly and made sure that all my questions were answered. He did not talk down to me as some dentists and doctors tend to do. Instead, he talked to me as an intelligent person. Dr. Tom did an excellent job on the extraction. I seem to be healing well although the work was only yesterday. I am so pleased with Dr. Tom that I will go back to him if i decide to have dental implants. Driving from Eureka to Ukiah is well worth the drive and the extra expenses of travel for the A+++ oral surgery and outstanding staff. I enthusiastically recommend Dr. Tom to anyone who needs his services.
