    I called him for a dental emergency. Been going to him for years. He never called back. The last couple of years have really been bad.

I decided to schedule the procedure and I was very pleased to be scheduled in pretty quickly. They have the option of super early appts (7am) which was really great for my schedule. The morning of the procedure everything went as planned with no delays. I was prescribed pain meds and he called me that same day in the late evening to check in and see how I was doing. I missed the call but I appreciated the message. I had some concerns about some pain I was feeling several days after and I was able to email in some pictures for him to take a look at and see if things looked normal. I was relieved to hear back and I was able to get a refill for meds. All in all the experience was very pleasant and I can see why this location has so many 5 stars. I was very happy it was in network too!

I was amazed at how smooth and efficient the whole process was. After the procedure, they even called me a few hours later--around three or four hours--just to check in and make sure I was doing well. That follow-up care really showed how much they care about their patients. It made the whole experience even more reassuring! Huge thanks and regards to Dr. Adamous and every staff member who helped, you guys were great.

But in this case, I feel it's important to share. I came to this office years ago after moving to Cerritos, right before my wedding, simply looking for a new dentist and a routine cleaning. They had great reviews, which is why I trusted them. From the start, I was told I had extensive issues--multiple cavities needed to be redone and several crowns were recommended. This was surprising to me, as I've consistently gone to the dentist and had never been told I needed such drastic work. Still, I trusted their assessment. The procedures that followed were some of the most painful dental experiences I've ever had. They took hours, felt extremely aggressive, and left me in severe pain afterward--far beyond what I've ever experienced with dental work. I have a high pain tolerance, and this felt very wrong. What was most frustrating was what happened next. I returned multiple times explaining that I couldn't sleep, eat, or function due to the pain. Each time, my concerns were dismissed and attributed to things like not flossing (umm I couldn't floss because of the extreme pain), which didn't make sense given the level of pain I was in. After pushing back repeatedly--especially with my wedding just days away--I insisted something was seriously wrong and requested further evaluation. It turned out I needed three root canals as a result of their prior work. Separately, the crowns that were placed caused ongoing issues. Eating anything with texture would cause gum pain, and I noticed unusual gaps that trapped food. When I brought this up, I was told the only solution was to redo the crowns at additional cost. My crowns also came off. Later, I happened to see a different dentist at the same office (a female provider who may have been temporary), and she immediately noted that the crowns had been placed at an awkward angle. She corrected them, and since then, I've had no pain and no further issues such as crowns falling off. I ultimately switched dentists and have not needed any major dental work since--just routine cleanings every six months, with no recurring problems. Based on what I went through--particularly the aggressive treatment, the outcome, and the dismissal of my concerns--I feel it's important for others to have full context before making a decision.

I was there for a consultation and they ended up misplacing my son's referral as well as the CD of his 3D CT scan. I hate that their response was to "simply do another CT scan for my kid for free." That wasn't the point.. the point was they were careless and lost his CD therefore having to reexpose my 7 yr old to more unnecessary radiation from the CT scan. And I'm not kidding when I say that when they literally finished redoing the CT scan they ended up finding the CD on the doctors desk. My husband and I were livid!! Livid with the doctor's office and how they handled my son's medical records that we are highly considering filing a complaint with the medical board. If you want mishandling of medical records and multiple exposures to unnecessary ct scans then this is definitely the place to go. Avoid this place at all cost and go and support another more capable doctor and their offices who deserve and respect your time and health because they 100% will be more organized and will also care more about their patients well being than this office.

    I've been a patient at this oral surgery office in the past and received good care on one occasion,…read moreso I returned with a sense of trust. Unfortunately, my recent experience made it very clear that this office does not truly accommodate emergencies--despite advertising that they do. I was facing a legitimate dental emergency, had already been evaluated by three separate dentists, and was told unequivocally that the tooth required extraction. I explained that I now live three hours away and asked for a reasonable accommodation--an early consult with the possibility of treatment later the same day. This is a standard, patient-centered approach in many practices, especially when clinical documentation already exists. They refused outright, insisting on a consult-only visit and requiring me to return on a different day. There was no flexibility, no clinical judgment applied to the situation, and frankly, no consideration for the burden placed on the patient. Let me be very clear: this is not an "emergency" oral surgery office. It is a routine, by-the-book practice that does not deviate from protocol under any circumstance. If your needs are straightforward and you don't require any accommodation, you may have an acceptable experience. But if you are in pain, time-sensitive, or need a provider willing to exercise discretion and compassion--you will not find it here. As a nurse with 38 years of experience, I have spent my career going above and beyond for patients, especially in urgent situations. That level of care should not be the exception--it should be the standard. When a medical office markets itself as providing emergency services but refuses to act accordingly, that's not just disappointing--it's misleading. Choose your provider carefully. When you're in a true emergency, this is not the place you want to rely on.

I usually stick with the same Hygienist for this, as I am a creature of habit. Second, my actual Dentist always takes a look after my cleaning is done so that he can let me know if there is anything that popped up while I am there that might need attention. This is good. Now... my last two cleaning sessions literally broke my heart. The ladies at the desk have ALWAYS been very kind to me, but on these last two occasions, it was as if... I don't know... something PERSONAL was happening with me. First, she all but snapped at me when I walked up to the desk, and then DEMANDED that I "pay first"... like they used to do to Denny's patrons back in the day (which REALLY made me uncomfortable) so, according to her, "...we can all get OUT of there and go home!". Then, my usual Hygienist was not available, and I wish they had told me this beforehand, and some other... person... did the cleaning, to the point that I can honestly say that she was DEFINITELY UNHAPPY with me!! I didn't know that a simple cleaning can HURT so badly!!! At any rate, I don't know what it was that I did wrong, or who I made angry enough to deserve this treatment, but I can take a hint. No more PAIN, please. I am sorry for whatever it was that I did wrong. I have never been treated like this, not even in the U.S. ARMY. :-(
