    Terrible customer service, still sending me bills from a crown that has fallen out. They had originally misquoted me.

    Do you guys accept medical?

    Apologies for the late reply Taylor! Seems like I missed this guy. No, we are not a MediCal office. Members of MediCal should have or be able to request a list of potential healthcare providers in the area that you can select from. Hope that helps!

    I need to have all of my teeth (broken, some down to the root) is this something you do?

    Hello Sherlene! Yes, that is something we are able to do in most cases. Our suggestion is to come in for an exam or if you have a treatment plan and x-rays already you can… Read more

The staff is friendly, helpful and welcoming. Dr. Appel talks to you prior to any work being done, and explains it as well during his process. His hygienists do the same. Their concern for my comfort seems to be a high priority, which I totally appreciate. If I had found someone like Dr. Appel and his staff earlier in my life I would never have had the anxiety of going to the dentist that I did have for many years.

The cheek biting continued for a year and I would do it as well in my sleep and randomly wake up. As a result I developed anxiety and at 60 something started grinding my teeth in my sleep. I did some research and found my problem is from the tooth being set too far outside and would have been an easy fix, instead of the bull crap reason I was given. Different doctor previously in that same office capped the exact same tooth originally and I had zero problems. Not to mention Appel "ground down" multiple other teeth getting them ready to be capped which is expensive and wasn't going to happen right away. Those teeth have sharp edges, cut my tongue and cause me constant problems. I feel like my insurance was milked, my teeth ruined, and as a result I have problems that were unnecessary. I will NEVER go back.

POSITIVES: He saw Doctor Costa ( 2nd time) and he was so caring and went above and beyond working in this somewhat depressing environment. 5 STARS TO THIS DENTIST! They can't keep good dentists for long because they overwork them. Its sad because there is a need in this area especially for the elderly or less fortunate. When they do get a good dentist they are gone within a year ( my friend said he has had about 5 different dentists in 3 years). Both Nadine and Doctor Costa worked well together to help calm my friend. I am thankful that they let me go in and sit in on services performed. I am so glad that I don't have to go here in this town. The hygienists are overworked..the dentists are overworked..and the skilled dentists leave ASAP. The front desk employees are miserable..no good morning..no expression. Either very unhappy or don't care. My friend and I congratulate Doctor Costa for his great attitude and service towards my friend and wish him well in Vacaville where he will definitely flourish! Too bad management cannot figure out how to take care of their staff!

Money was an issue, and made sure to get the price from the receptionist when I arrived at the appointment before proceeding. Had already gotten a quote when I made the appointment over the phone, but I always double check. It was just under $400.00 back then, and it was highway robbery; having had it replaced several times, I can tell you that I paid $100.00 everywhere else. I was unhappy with the dentist's attitude and her crappie work ( the repair only lasted a year) but to add insult to injury was receiving the phone call from the receptionist shortly after my arrival at my house that they wanted more money!!! They will be waiting a long time for another penny and I made that perfectly clear.

    I had a very unsettling experience here yesterday. My son…read morehas been going to this dentist for the last 5 years, pretty much since this location has been opened. We have never had a bad experience until yesterday. Last week we went in for a routine cleaning and checkup. Once again, they had new staff working in the office area and it was another new lady doing his cleaning (seems like they go through staff quite often). This time was different, he had never had any cavities prior to this appointment. They told us that they had found 3 cavities and that they wanted to do a preventive kind of filling (SDF), which we were totally okay with moving forward so we scheduled the appointment for the following week (which brings me back to yesterday). When we went in, the lady at the front desk asked us once again if we were ok with moving forward with the treatment, which I confirmed (again). She then handed me the tablet and asked me to view and sign a form. Something told me to really read that form and I'm glad I did. I read the top portions then scrolled down, went to sign and just barely glanced up a bit more to see that they had marked down 5 teeth. When I went to the counter to ask, she confirmed that there were 5 cavities. I then proceeded to tell her that last week there were only 3 and I was confused as to why their paperwork says 5. Then out of no where, a random lady with an attitude problem popped out from the cubby in the corner and told me that she will have the doctor sit down with us in a room before we continue any further, which I agreed. Now usually I have a big attitude problem, but I really kept my cool the whole time I was there. We were called back within 2 minutes and she proceeded to take us back to a closed room that we have never been in before. The doctor came in and told me is going to take another look into his mouth and asked his staff to pull up the picture of his teeth. He then proceeded to tell me he does have 5 cavities and that maybe we didn't hear it right last week. But I would have remembered because he specifically told me it was 3 of his molars, not it's all 4 molars and 1 in the side. I then told him I was not comfortable at the moment with what was going on. He then got up and changed his attitude real quick, told me that was fine, we will cancel today and I can find a new dentist for all further appointments going forward. He then turned his back to me and closed out all the pictures and records on the computer. I then agreed with him because why the hell would I want to bring him to a place where we can't trust. I did cancel all appointments moving forward and I encourage everyone else to do the same!!! After we left, I felt so gross and I knew I needed to do something. I usually don't do this type of thing but I feel the public needs to know how they run their business. It's not right.

    I took my autistic 3 year old son in there for his first visit and he had a complete meltdown, but…read morethe staff was so amazing!! So understanding, so patient and kind. 10 out of 10 recommend
