Before my last appointment the office called to give me a heads up that they had a new policy that…read morethey required payment at the time of treatment and then I'd be reimbursed by my insurance carrier. Turns out, they are no longer in network, so my carrier reimbursed only a portion of the costs for treatment that should have been free (standard cleaning). At no point did they say "we are no longer in network with Delta Dental," which my previous dentist did. In short, they're deceptive, which sucks because I liked my hygienist.

It has now been going on 3 years, I pay them a visit every six months for teeth cleaning and I could not be more satisfied than I already am. One of their dental hygienist, Deana, is beyond expectations. She treats you like she's known you for awhile & answers all my questions. Yes, I always ask a lot of questions due to being a very curious woman. So if you're interested in a new dental office, this is your one. They're located on the outskirts of Sebastopol which makes it easier coming in from Santa Rosa. Oh yeah, Dr. Benstock is in a band! He's a man of many qualities.

Did not fit well at all and hurt upper gum a lot. I gave back to his office and he did not refund any money I paid for it. He did have two front teeth put in my old upper denture and that's what i'm using with a lot of paste. But I'm getting by. If you see this dentist for a denture I would just say BE CAREFULL. So I ended up paying 2900.00 to have the two front teeth added to my old denture.

Dr. Mansukhani and his assistant performed the job - without shots - within 45 minutes. And the work was FLAWLESS. My tooth is more beautiful than it has ever been in all the 50 years I've had dentists repair it. During the visit, they put me at ease, allowing me to watch whatever I wanted on Youtube with headphones on. I'm so glad I chose to stick with the office. A couple more things. I went in for another matter about a year ago and Dr. Mansukhani put me at ease about a tooth another dentist told me needed to be repaired. Dr. Mansukhani said the tooth was just fine. And don't get me started about the teeth cleanings! It's like a spa experience. I've had two cleaners and they were both gentle, incredibly thorough, calming and warm.

This office sent me online questionnaires which I had to complete twice as they said they didn't receive it. 1 hour total time to do it 2 times. I showed up at her office for appt. and Patricia Webb came into my room and stood next to my chair and said nothing. I looked at her and said, "are you Patricia Webb?" She said yes. I introduced myself. She never asked me anything. Handed me my health records and said she could not take me on as a patient. Told me to go to another dentist but they were not taking on new patients. I asked her staff to contact this other office to get me in as a referral from her of which she never did. She offered me no other referrals. The other office did recommend someone in Mill Valley but a biological dentist who I won't see as they are very expensive and I don't believe in their philosophy. This dentist must have looked at my records right before she walked into my room and made me feel very upset as she did not look into my mouth, ask how my tooth pain was, no concern for my mouth pain. She turned me away after I drove all the way to her Sebastopol office after waiting 2-1/2 weeks to see her. I had taken antibiotics of which I had on hand but she did not care enough to offer any help to my painful teeth problems. Just sent me away. A very unprofessional dentist and I would not recommend this office or her to anyone. I have never been treated like this by any professional ever.

So my mom paid him to drill into a perfectly fine tooth & fill it with mercury. I learned then that novacaine had no effect on that tooth specifically. A lesson I would learn again 32 years later after I chomped down on a delicious piece of crunchy baguette & moments later cut my tongue on a jagged tooth. Turns out amalgum-mercury fillings expand & contract & 1/2 my molar broke right off. Fast forward through the first two fixes at the dental school (both of which I felt) to 2023 & enter Dr. Savko. He is so nice. So reassuring. So professional. He considers everything. He took into account my past experiences with novacaine & went with something different & it worked so well I didn't feel a thing. He's funny & fun. The staff is also great. Always good music playing. I never thought I would get that tooth fixed. Ever. So happy! He's actually now one of my favorite doctors.

Unfortunately I would not recommend this dentist anymore…read more I have been going to this dentist for around 20 years. This place has gone down hill the last few years... The wait to get seen can be up to 6 months. This was the case when I had to reschedule. I guess they were low on staff or punishing me. I don't know if it is because the dentist doesn't pay his staff enough or or what. But darn near every time my wife and I are in, he has new staff. A revolving door of new staff never seems to be a good sign. As for Dr. Chera he is a friendly but not overly friendly person. He definitely has the feeling of being in a rush when he comes in the room. He is very knowledgeable and try's to connect your whole health with your teeth. Very minimal contact with the dentist, on checkups he pokes his head in and looks at the x-rays pokes around in your mouth real quick gives a few notes and is OUT! For the last 5-6 years he must be partially retired because he is rarely in the office to look at your teeth or X-rays. When he was in his old office before he bought his current location it felt like he was trying to make a name for himself and went the extra mile. He would go out of his way to stop in and say hi and chop up a little conversation. He was ALWAYS in the office. He didn't exude the feeling of being in a rush. The funniest part of him acting all rushed is sometimes his personal office door is open and he's just kicking back in his office. In a rush to get back to your solitaire game or something? He isn't overly pushy about filling cavities that don't need, but his staff are not so much. Example the Dr. Says we need to keep an eye on a couple teeth and I'm like ok, he says it's no rush like you need a filling now. The staff asks if I would like a quote, I was like sure may as well see what I'm getting into since insurance is a joke these days and doesn't cover the whole job!!! The front desk gives me a quote and then calls like every 2 months asking if I want to schedule the filling. Sheesh the dentist just said we want to keep an eye on it not that I needed it done. Then I get a notice that they are dropping our delta dental insurance because they don't pay enough... sheesh I already have to pay the difference what else do they want! My wife calls them up just to be courteous and let them know that we will not need our dental appointments in the future. The lady asks why and then says we aren't dumping your insurance for another month, do you want to schedule those fillings before we don't accept your insurance... Hell no! We have been loyal patients for a huge portion of your working career and we are kicked to the curb?! You are still trying to push one last squeeze of our money before we go... Sorry the relationship is over. You aren't the nice family dentist that I reffered so many patients to. You are just resting on the existing clients and doing the bare minimum to keep the money rolling in. It's a shame this place was great for 15 years!
