Read the paperwork carefully before you sign. Even on an HMO they require you to pay up front. That is against contractual agreement with the insurance company. I called my insurance company and they verified this fact. There was no misunderstanding, I made sure to be very specific about why they were asking of me. I cancelled my first appointment and never went to this office. Also reported to the insurance carrier. read more

Fraud alert! This dentist office is a rip off. We paid $105 cash for a consultation and x-ray in order to get a tooth pulled, only to find out that they don't pull teeth; and therefore was referred to another dentist in Concord who do their own x-rays and consultation for another $175. read more

I haven't been to a dentist in over 15 years due to the fear of dentist. Dr Patel, Rita, Blanca, and Estefany have been so welcoming. They all understood my fears and still worked with me. They have made my visits painless and comfortable. 10/10 I recommend. Thank you, Dr Patel and dentist family. read more

The entire office is amazing! I had such a great experience. I'm visiting from LA so I was due for a cleaning. I found this place and not only got a cleaning but Dr. Sanjay Patel took car of some fillings. He was so nice, honest and made me feel comfortable. After all, I still get scared going to the dentist. I highly recommend this dental office. Thank you for making this such a great experience for me. read more

If I could give this place a 0 I would, I don't give many reviews or ratings but I want this to be a warning to anyone who is looking to go here. The staff including dr Patel is very rude and impatient. Believe the other one star reviews as they all sound similar to the treatment my mother received. read more

Excellent dentist and their rates are very reasonable! I am a very happy customer (patient) because they took care of me. The dentist assistant lady is very nice to me. I have dentist anxiety but they are very patient with me. Thank you Dr. Patel and team! I will come back! read more

My family and I have been going to the Patels for the last 17 years. We highly recommend there services and recommendations. Both Rita and Sanjay always treat us more like family than clients. They are always professional and accommodating to our individual needs. The Silva Family read more

I always feel at ease getting dental work done with Drs. Sanjay and Rita. I've had numerous cleanings and fillings done and have had no problems. Some of my fillings were on visible teeth and they matched the color of the fillings so well that I couldn't even tell you where it is. I drive an hour each way to go to this dentist and it's worth it. read more

I used to go to western dental and so glad I found them! I'm not waiting all day, I feel like they are respectful of your time. Both Dr's are fun to talk to and very personable. I'm sad we moved out of state but Dr. Patel is awesome and his office is very friendly as well. read more

Dr.Patel was super helpful in advising me on how to proceed with my TMJ surgery. He is a great dentist, and helped me navigate a complicated jaw issue. Highly recommend his work :) read more

I've been going to this office on and off for 21 years. Due to either being in the Navy or not living in the area, I always come back. I've never felt comfortable in a dental office outside of Doctor Patel's office and I will continue to go back. Great work and willing to work with your schedule. read more

i've been coming here for years my kids love them they're so sweet and so nice they do a great job I would definitely recommend them they are really truly the best read more

I was also told I needed a good 10 tings done at an arm and a leg $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ went elsewhere and only had a few things wrong. I truly feel they want to retire early ripping people off! read more

I have only gone to two dentists in the US but from the service I have received I wouldn't know what more to expect. The service has been good, and the staff friendly. read more

Want to say "Thank You" for the professionalism I received at your Office. You are now my Stateside Dentist.

I have been visiting Dr Patel for over 5 years now, and have always had a wonderful experience, which is hard to say when you refer to a dentist. His staff is always very courteous, accomodating especially in urgent situations (i have had 5 root canals). Prior to finding Dr Patel, I had another dentist who had really messed up my RC's, so had a lot of re-work to be done, in some cases, when a cap fell off and had to be re-fixed, as happened last week. The office is modest, but very comfortable. Dr Patel is very thorough and explains clearly what's going on and what the choices are. He has this really cool camera now through which he shows you what's going on inside your mouth on a TV screen. He is very patient, and i've never had any regrets. read more

Dr. Patel is an awesome guy. He is very straight forward. He does not try to up sell unnecessary services. The facility was in a spacious area. Overall it was a great experience. read more

My family has been going to Dr. Sanjay and Rita Patel for over 15 years. They provide the best dental care service since we moved to Pittsburg. They, their front desk and assistants are very friendly and they make you comfortable. They don't try to sell you a dental service that will cost you a lot. If your looking for a great family dentist in Pittsburg, check them out. read more

This is an amazing family dentistry office. Family ran and family oriented. Even their receptionis and their assistants are so nice and easy to work with. They accomodate your scheduling needs and are even open later on a couple of evenings during the week to make it easy on scheduling conflicts. I have been going here over 10 years and I moved away from the area and still drove out here to get my teeth worked- they are that good. They go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable and they are genuinely concerned about your oral health. These dentists are very friendly, understanding and highly knowledgeable. All of which is key when it comes to a good dentist. If you are in search of a great dentist, look no further! read more

Had a tooth concern on my way to Bay Area and saw Dr Patel. Dr Patel and his staff are extremely friendly & professional. Dr. Patel's dental assistant took X-rays of all my teeth then explained what to expect on that first appointment. He was thorough, carefully explaining where problem areas were by referencing the Digital X-rays on big screen TV and what needed to be taken care of right away and what needed to keep an eye on. He has gentle, yet steady hand and was really good at making sure that I was comfortable & OK throughout the dental procedure on subsequent visits. I will definitely recommend him for Dental work. read more

I have been going to dr. Patel for about two weeks now and I had the worse experience I ever had in my life. I went in to start the process of getting a implant done and he was very rude and inpatient, he was dismissive and wouldn't let me talk as if I didn't have anything important to say. After he filled some cavities I had terrible pain so I called four days after about It and his literal words were WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO ABOUT IT as if he was annoyed , i was speechless, but against my better judgment I went in anyway. When I got there he asked me to sit in the dentist chair as he prepared his tools and started drilling in my mouth without giving me numbing medication. I had to literally jump up out the chair because it hurt so bad. So needless to say I have to find another dentist. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS DR. read more

Been going to Dr. Patel's practice for the past 20 years. Not only are they Kind and Receptive, but they remember their patients names who only ever come in every six months or so at a time.They have always been proactive at helping me deal with insurance and have never made me feel bad when I needed to have a procedure done or may have missed my previous cleaning schedule. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a truly honest and kind family dental practice. read more

I found this company through Yelp. I just move to area. They had great reviews so i decided to try them out. I have been nothing but satisfied with the staff, service & convenient scheduling. I appreciate that they call & text me before an apt. date. Thank you for all you do and you have a life long customer. read more

They are very nice people. My family and I have been going there since I was a kid. It's local and a great place to go! I suggest and advise you to come here if you want a nice well organized establishment. They remind you of your next appointment and are understanding. I trust them with my teeth. read more

Rude personal at front desk, unwilling to get my previous dentist records, they don't listen or care about your personal needs. There are plenty of good dentists, avoid going there. read more

They are Excellent, Amazing, incredible, etc. etc. I love this place, because ive had extensive work done and I have felt no pain just care and great work. Thank you Dr Sanjay and Rita Patel, Blanca, and Melissa, God Bless you all. read more

My daughter has gone there for over 10 years they know her by name and are always glad to see our family ! Their assistants are extremely sweet and the patels always have a joke to tell read more

Today I went in for a visit regarding my broken tooth. Well as soon as I got there Mellisa tells me I owe them $25.00 late fee for not showing up ... well this will be the last and never again will attend there office. He did not want to fix my tooth he decided to send me some where else and have a another dr fix all my problems due to him sending me to a referral. And top it off he didn't speak nor chat about what can be done. His Asst's told me what I needed and then he up and left to sit in his office. I highly recommend people don't visit this office nor do business with him .. I'm so mad and upset this is not the first time he's done this shit to me now I'm over his business never again found a new 1 and feel so much better . read more

I've been coming here for almost a year. I left and came back and they have always taken care of my smile. I love them! The staff is awesome. Dr. Patel gives you the truth, they give set you up to where you don't have problems with your teeth in the future. They will be my dentist forever! Best dentist in the Bay! read more

I have been coming to the Patel's for the last 14 years of my life. I highly recommend their service. They treat us so good, and always does a good job. They always remind your appointment with a call and sends out a text which is very helpful and convenient. Thanks for all you guys have done! read more

I called to schedule a new patient appointment and was told the cost would be $70. I arrived for my appointment and after filling out paper work was told the visit will be $70 only if I paid cash. I do not typically carry cash and was not told this on the phone. I was told the credit card price would be $105; that is a 50% charge for credit card. Vending machines and even parking meters accept credit cards. I was given the opportunity to leave to get cash; I left but will not return. I will not do business with anyone who seams to be that far out of touch with modern times and neither should you. read more

I had a TON of anxiety about finding a dentist when I moved here, so I put it off for a year and a half after moving. I found Dr. Patel online and had a really hard time believing his rating could actually be 5 out of 5 (with more than just a couple people reviewing), but I took a leap of faith and finally made an appt. I have to say, it was probably the most pleasant experience at a dentist that I have ever had. He cleans the teeth (which seems to be a thing down here? I've only ever had hygienists clean my teeth). He was super fast and thorough. He went over my x-rays and made a couple of suggestions for other work I could use, but he wasn't pushy at all. He gave me his advice and left it at that. Overall, it was the best experience at a dentist that I could've hoped for! Thank you, Dr. Patel! read more

I've been going to Dr. Patel for about 12 years now with no complaints. Sanjay and Rita are the only dentists I trust, and I will not go to anyone else. I have a horrible history with a previous oral surgeon which resulted in a broken jaw. No one else wanted to work on me after that. Dr. Patel took the challenge and has been taking good care of me since. Being the big baby I am at 36 years old, Dr. Patel gives me extra shots for numbing. He does whatever it takes to make me feel as comfortable as possible. He is also very affordable compared to most dentists when you pay out of pocket. I have never had any problems with the work that has been done in my mouth. My crowns and fillings look and feel great. Rita and Sanjay provide quality dental work, and I'd recommend them to anyone. I was actually referred to them by my mom. read more

A different dentist ( they are all over), and not to mention ''them'', was going to charge me at least $2,000 more for the things I need done. Went today and for the 1st oral exam visit( he already has x-rays from '' other place'', I was quite happy with all he told me. After reading the other reviews, yes he talks fast and has a lot to say. I myself had no problem listening to what he said. His information to me ( I can only speak for myself) was priceless. Dr. Patel as you all know owns his own business with a small crew of workers. Because Dr Patel is the only dentist I'm sure he does not have a lot of extra time when others have appointments coming in after you so when he talks fast about everything you need to know, absorb, and yes he did ask me if I had any questions. I wrote down what he told me and thus far I'm a happy camper. Bottom line, he's good at what he does, and is saving me tons of money. BTW don't forget to floss after each meal, and brush and use mouthwash!!! LOL :) read more

We read Dr. Patels reviews & we thought to give it a try because we needed a Dentist. Once when we got into his office we felt at home right away! My tooth concerns were deep cleaning, extractions & filings. His staff are super friendly & professional. I appreciate his concerns with what we needed to work on & his professional referrals for other work. He makes it easier for us to visit the dentist often, even if it is for a quick clean. He makes everything so painless, I'm just happy we found him!!! We can rest all those "Dentist is a nightmare" rumours with Dr. Patel! read more

I've been going to Rita and Sanjay Patel's Dentist Office for a few years now. I always have a wonderful experience there. I always leave there happy with the work done. I highly recommend them! They are not only great people, but they also do an excellent job. I am never sore after the work being done. I have never had any problems from them. They really take care of your teeth! I've been to many different dentist offices, and this is by far the best dentist. I definitely do not plan on changing my dentist. read more

Our experience with Dr Sanjay has been quite good. Both my husband and I go to him and Timings for appointments have always been accommodated. his sense of humor helps to divert our attention and takes the pressure off the actual procedure / treatment being done. We have nothing to complain about and are very happy with the overall experience. read more

My whole family has been coming to this place since like forever!! A very clean and nice place. Friendly employees & excellent dentist services. Definitely recommend this place. read more

Terrible experience with his associate oral surgeon. The front staff is clueless and has no front office re-pore. Needed a specialist and was referred to this office based upon my extraction complications. Had an extraction by the oral surgeon who gave me no information on what he was doing or had did. Left with no pain med's prescription or and kind of antibiotic. Two days later was in such severe pain and had called the office. No dentist was available to look at me. Told me to go to urgent care where the prescribed me oral med's and two antibiotics. The office staff had no compassion and said they couldn't do anything. Finally after 6 days I was able to see the surgeon. He said everything i was experiencing was normal and I will still be in pain for a few more days. What an ass, had no compassion for his butcher job. Do no go to these hacks ! read more
