Once the procedure was over, I noticed that his staff (Mike and Mechalle) was very caring and highly professional. Everyone prepared me for the possibility of pain and discomfort once the anesthesia wore off. However, after the oral surgery, my son took a five-hour nap and woke up as if nothing had happened; no pain, no side effects, and no complications at all. I was honestly amazed. My teenager even expressed that he was expecting the worst, but he did not feel any pain, even days afterward. Dr. Paul is also extremely responsible of his work and compassionate with his patients. He personally called afterward to check on how my son was feeling, which tells a lot about him. During our follow-up consultation, he took the time to answer every question thoroughly and explain everything from a professional perspective. Overall, I feel completely confident recommending Dr. Paul Koshgerian to anyone needing oral surgery care, in which I already have referred him to my coworker. It is rare to find doctors who are this passionate, skilled, caring, and responsible. I truly hope he continues his amazing work for many years to come. Wishing him nothing but the best. Thank you so much to give my son this amazing experience!

I was ultimately told I needed emergency oral surgery and was at risk for life-threatening complications. Dr. Paul Koshgerian truly saved my life. He immediately prioritized my surgery despite his demanding schedule and treated me with compassion, honesty, and urgency from day one. The recovery process has been long, but Dr. K has supported me every step of the way and helped restore both my health and my smile. I can't thank him enough for the care he gave me during one of the hardest times of my life.

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!!!!

On February 26, 2025, I went to University Dental with a toothache in my upper right bicuspid. I…read morewanted to get an antibiotic because I wanted to save the tooth. I told this to the dental assistant, the assistant said, "Oh, He never does that." Dr. Hage DDS the owner, convinced me to have the tooth pulled. I was mentally weak due to the tooth pain. The doctor pulled the tooth and showed me a small white infection at the tip of the root, however there was no decay on the tooth. As soon as I saw that there was no decay; I knew all I really need was an antibiotic. I knew this because I had worked in dentistry from 1981 to 1997. Dr. Hage does not care about saving teeth he wants to pull them out so he can do an expensive implant. Then the dentist said I need to have a bone graft; he charged me $800 for that procedure. This took him all about 3 minutes, so I don't know what he really did. I have an upper partial denture, so now I had to pay additional money to add a tooth to the partial. It took two times to get the replacement tooth properly aligned right. It looks terrible and it doesn't look right. A very Mickey mouse job, the lab work was terrible. If you want to save your teeth I would never recommend this office. They don't care about the patient they just care about money. I suggest you find a more ethical dentist if you want to keep your teeth. Sign, A retired dental professional

I was a patient at La Mesa Dental Artistry years ago, working with Dr. Rebecca Wachtel, Sarah, and…read moreher other amazing staff during what was a genuinely traumatic time in my life. 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.

Overall, I enjoy my experiences at this dental office…read more Scheduling an appointment with the front desk staff is quick and easy. Usually, I have been able to schedule my appointments within a week. The wait time after checking into the appointment is long. There is a sign at the front desk stating to expect long wait times. It's the one aspect I hope the office improves on. During my first two appointments I did wait over an hour to see a dentist. After taking x-rays I was advised that I need a deep cleaning. The office would have to contact my insurance to get it approved. I was quoted it could take up to five weeks for approval; however, it was approved in less than two weeks. When I went to my appointment to receive a cavity filling it was switched to a deep cleaning on the right side of my mouth. I was experiencing great anxiety, and I let everyone know what my concerns were. Rigo, the supervisior, was compassionate and patient with talking me through my anxiety. Dr. Gabro was light-hearted and nurturing during the prep and throughout the procedure. Possibly I will get braces. The orthodontist briefly spoke to me after getting numb, and I was asked if I'll be interested in starting payments for braces at a discounted rate. I need some more time to decide so I did not start a payment plan. If you are seeking a dentist I would recommend giving the business a look.

I believe they also have BBQ Friday's during the summer where they have hot dogs with all the fix-ins. They make the "not so pleasant" procedures tolerable, almost pleasant. I've been recommending them to everyone I know. My only gripe is that the service can be slooooow. I guess its because they give everyone personalized attention. Dont expect to squeeze in a cleaning or visit during your lunch hour.

I never had a cavity until recently so I was super nervous about the filling procedure, specially the injection. Didn't feel a thing, I thought that was impossible. They do everything to keep you as comfy as possible: memory foam pillow, warm blanket, comfy chair, headphones and cable tv right above your head so you can watch as you get work done.

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
