The building is really nice. Tvs under the exam seats and in the lobby. Toys and books for kids to read while they wait. Everything looked well kept and clean. The dental assistant that handled my child was beyond perfect with her. My daughter did very well in the environment and it was because of the calm and caring demeanor of the person who took her X-rays and did her cleaning. It came time to meet Dr. Tam. He was very direct, monotone, and didn't have the the child friendly demeanor I had expected and hoped for. He tried to connect with my child but it like he was going through the motions (or at least that was my perception which could be wrong). It could have been that they were busy and he just didn't feel like he had time to try but I left the interaction feeling indifferent. He was informative and got a plan in place for us to move forward with. Overall this place is worth checking out at the very least. I'm glad I checked it out and I loved how they give the kid a toy out of a dispenser when you leave. It's a very nice touch and now my kid will be excited to go back

My daughter is also afraid of dentist and she had a horrible experience both visits unfortunately. Kind doesn't mean they take the proper time to care enough about patient care. They cut her gums both times and rushed the entire procedure both times we were there. The dentist was constantly complaining about my daughter speaking up or asking for an explanation of what was going to be done to her. I had to step in every time. The bathroom had no hand soap, it took 15 minutes for the front desk to provide us with any, in that time we were being looked for by the dental assistant. The dental assistant was amazing with my daughter. Then we were scolded by the dentist for taking the time to ask for hand soap, as if somehow we are responsible for the maintenance of the office. The plunger was in the middle of the restroom with feces covering the entire thing. It's a shame I had to speak up to avoid a child taking responsibility for thier lack of staff attention and responsibility. If I hadn't, my child would have thought it was somehow her responsibility. It's not, if I have to speak up for basic hygiene standards I can only imagine the consequences for the parents who don't speak up or the children that arnt taken seriously. Yes they take CenCal. The dentist is more concerned about the patient input and output, They take SEVERAL kids at once and is constantly jumping from room to room finishing up as fast as she can. I have also visited the San Luis Obispo office they operate. There's Left over used Instruments left on the floor from patients, debris covered the chairs and incredibly dirty floors and patient chairs. I can say the dental assistant and dentist take more time and effort to make sure children comfort and care are their primary priority in the SLO office. I was recommended by a close family member, I really wanted to like them. I would suggest looking around. Dental hygiene is considered a high importance it's a shame there offices and patient rooms are not taken care by the same standards. That's my personal experience and opinion. I don't believe I'm wrong for holding dentist office to safety and hygiene standards for my children. They matter too. All three of my children have gone, ranging from different ages. 11,6, and 7. My 7 year old daughter is the only one who had work done.

The dentist never came in before surgery to give me a run down of what exactly was going to happen or to introduce himself. My son came out of surgery with his 2 front teeth gone and the dentist just said it was because they were infected after I asked why he had taken them out. I was extremely upset at the fact that no one let me know that his 2 front teeth would be extracted I was under the impression from what the nurses had told me that if anything only his back teeth would be extracted because that was the main reason my son was having work done. I absolutely DO NOT recommend and if anyone has any suggestions as to where to take my complaint further please let me know.

After getting new dental insurance I was on the hunt for a new dentist and took the time to do my research I came across a lot of positive reviews for this office so I decided to go for it. Best decision I made! This is a small office with a handful of staff members which is a plus as everyone gets to know you by name and remember you. Starting with Robin and the front desk, Dr. Fee herself and the back staff everyone is just easygoing and very professional. Wait time is no longer than 5-10 minutes and they get you in and out while doing a great job. I like the way staff takes time to explain procedures and the focus of the contact so that there is no misunderstanding on what is being done to you that day. I highly recommend this office!

Now my insurance has changed (for the better) and I have local options. I called Western Dental a few days ago and canceled my appt. Today I get an email reminder that my appt's coming up. I called them again and had to cancel a 2nd time. Considering all of the horrible reviews, I feel like I dodged a bullet but I'm also suspicious that this is SOP procedure: 1) fail to delete canceled appts; 2) bill for the missed appt; 3) send to collections.
