We had a really good experience here. We hadn't been to the dentist in a while and was honestly a little nervous going in, but the whole team made it easier for us either from booking a first appt to coming back for future visits. The front desk was friendly and amazing! the wait time was short, and the dentist explained everything in a way that actually made sense. Made me feel at ease knowing the kid's will be at the right care. The cleaning was thorough but gentle, and they checked in a couple times to make sure the kid's was comfortable. The office itself was very clean, kid friendly, and organized, which we appreciated. Overall it just felt like they genuinely cared about their patients, not like we was being rushed through an appointment. Definitely glad I found this place and sister Portia from our LDS church recommended. We'll be coming back for any future visits. Our must have dentist in the valley. Thank you Dr. Okamoto & all staffs, you guys are amazing and we're blessed to be apart of it Don't hesitate to read my review and seriously go in for your kid's dental necessities! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

He went through the whole process of filling the cavity and placing the filling with literally no movement from my son. It was seamless!! I was so worried because my son is not good with pain but this process went so smoothly I can't believe it!! We were in and out in 20 minutes. The staff is also so nice and welcoming! I'm so so glad we found a great dentist, I wish I could also go here

They take your temperature and make you fill out a questionnaire about exposure and travel. Staff is wearing extreme PPE, which I respect. I just moved here and needed a new dentist in my insurance network. So far I have had cleaning, x-rays, and a filling done, and I am completely satisfied. Absolutely beautiful office, impeccably clean. Not a moment of pain during the filling. Everyone on staff is friendly and professional.

    The staff is horrible and cancelled an appointment without notifying us…read more A staff member contacted me the day before my twin daughters' appointments to request updated dental insurance information as my employer's insurance had changed. They requested that I email the updated insurance information which I did. The following morning my daughters showed up for their scheduled appointment and were told their appointment had been cancelled because Blu Oasis didn't have their insurance information. The staff member told my daughters that a voicemail message had been left advising of this. This was a complete lie. No voicemail message had been left and Blu Oasis had received the insurance information via email. I called to ask why they cancelled the appointment and they couldn't bother to answer the phone or return my voicemail message. I scheduled with another dental practice in La Quinta and would suggest you do the same. Blu Oasis is rude, unprofessional, doesn't tell the truth and has no consideration for their patients' time. All they had to do was ask my daughters for their insurance cards when they arrived but they turned them away and lied about notifying about the appointment cancellation. Stay clear of this place!! Simply horrible.

I had to have x-rays, a cleaning and dental exam. The office was clean and the staff very friendly and I really liked Dr. Rojas who seemed very genuine and knowledgeable. I have one issue with a tooth that he wants to keep an eye on but other than that all good. The hygienist recommended a waterpik to help with my flossing which I appreciated. My husband also went to Dr. Rojas and liked him as well. The office is a storefront in a strip mall which was a little different but I was able to pick up some groceries after my appointment!

All of his assistants and dental hygienists are equally as professional, in addition to being very warm and putting patients at ease. Honestly, who likes going to the dentist...certainly not me. I moved away from my family dentist many years ago and I have had only ONE other dentist in 40 years that I liked as much as Dr Rojas. I feel very fortunate that my friend recommended him several years ago. My 90 year old mom will be moving here from the midwest and so Dr Rojas will be her new dentist. She has seen him a couple of times when she had an emergency. Again, he is gentle and thorough. I find his fees reasonable as well. IF you are looking for a new dentist, I highly recommend Dr Rojas and his team. No matter where you live in the Coachella Valley, they are all worth the drive!!

As a patient since 2005, I've noticed a decline in customer service over the past six years. I recently had to reschedule my appointment because I brought my 8-year-old nephew, and they wouldn't allow him to accompany me or even wait in the waiting room, despite my annual check-up typically lasting no more than 20 minutes.

    They don't value your time, nor do they keep your appointment time.....they make you WAIT 2-3 HOURS…read morepast your appointment time to get service! They simply don't care! My Son has been unable to get his wisdom teeth removed, due to this offices inability to keep a basic schedule. On two separate occasions, after checking in 15 minutes prior to our 2PM appointment, we were left WAITING in their waiting room in excess of 2.5 HOURS! This happened on our initial appointment and again on our re-scheduled appointment! It appears to be this offices standard operating procedure to schedule two appointment times for everyone, some at 8AM and some at 2PM. In this way, they always have a full waiting room ALL THE TIME. They create a corral of patients, and make them wait for extended periods of time, without concern. Wait, Leave or Reschedule, the choice is yours. They are not keeping a standard schedule, with appointments throughout the day, every 15 minutes. If they are, they are very BAD at keeping appointment times, within a reasonable wait time. This will be our THIRD ATTEMPT to obtain services, as there are NO OTHER Dental Surgeons in our area, that remove wisdom teeth. Town & Country Dental need to be corrected and taught how to respect the patient's time. FIND ANOTHER PROVIDER, if you can.

    My name is Anna, and this place is horrible. Only good…read morething about this place are the actual dentists. To start, my dental insurance scheduled an appointment at 12pm. What they DON'T TELL the insurance companies is that the whole place closes for lunch at that time for an hour. I work so I had scheduled it according to my lunch break. With it being a routine check up I figured it wouldn't take long. This was the first time I was at this office location. I just left, the staff was extremely rude because I didn't know they were closing even though it was my first time there. They knew it was my first time because that's what I led with when they first addressed me walking in. I was told "You need to leave, we are closing for lunch" I responded "I apologize, it's my first time here, my appointment was scheduled at 12." They proceeded to be extremely rude, talked over me, and told me to "Get Out" when I was trying to ask quick questions about rescheduling. Apart from my first appointment, the front counter staff lost my personal information (copies of my insurance card, drivers license etc.) 3 SEPARATE TIMES. Later on it was determined that I needed a tooth removed and decided to get an implant with a fake tooth. Was quoted a little over 4k for the WHOLE procedure. Used their finance option and signed the contract. They put the post in, make the mold for the tooth etc. The DAY OF the procedure to put in the tooth, they pull me into the office and say that the old employee quoted me wrong and I needed to pay ANOTHER 4k to finish the procedure. Absolutely wild. I had no choice, they had prepped everything to install the tooth and then blindsided me. I haven't been back since because the front counter staff is absolutely horrible, rude, unprofessional and down right scammers. They took financial advantage of me, a young woman, on purpose and it's absolutely disgusting. DO NOT GO HERE.

I don't have a dentist outside of LA so the next morning I called several in the area and the closest dentist to take my insurance was an hour away. I ended up grabbing an emergency appointment with Dr. Kristina Pham, even though they don't accept my insurance. This freshly chipped tooth clearly needed a crown but Dr Pham hooked me up with a temporary filing that she molded into a new tooth. Very much appreciated her solving this missing tooth issue so I could resume eating M&Ms and having fun with friends for the week until I returned home. Also, she charged a very reasonable amount for this quick fix when I was expecting the worst.

Totally professional with service I have never experienced before. Five stars is not enough to rate this dental care facility.
