And my nerves were out the window and down the street the morning of my surgery. Dr Hughes's team was stellar EVERY last employee was smiling and kind and telling me that everything would be fine. I had a pre-op meeting with Dr. Hughes and my husband so I would have post-op info before sedation. The Dr cleared up a lot of facts about recovery. He was absolutely genuine and caring. He eased my nerves by simply being kind. When I was moved to operation room he had 2 other staff in there and they were so gentle so sweet. I went night night and came too as they were wheeling me to the car. I can't sing their praises enough. I will always recommend Dr. Hughes. Him and his team went above and beyond. Edit: 1 week post-op and I'm feeling great! This oral surgeon is magnificent! I highly highly highly recommend him if your insurance covers his work! His work is so unbelievably precise and careful. I wouldn't have wanted any other oral surgeon. THANK YOU DR. HUGHES AND TEAM!!!!!

Dr Alas and his staff are very courteous and sure to make you comfortable. I have had a lot of…read morenecessary dental work, and gone to many dentists. Out of all dentists and specialists I have seen, Dr Alas truly cares about his patients and strives to find the best solution for you. He also prefers to preserve your natural teeth when possible, rather than replacing them. He is very gentle, and has very light hands. His staff is equally as gentle, and friendly too. They are sure to limit as much pain as possible, and prioritize your comfort above all. Very personable and kind office. They get the job done in the best manner possible. Can't recommend enough. Dr Alas has done fillings, bonding, implant and bone grafting, and crowns for me. Out of my many trips to the dentist, I look forward now rather than dreading like before.

My mother-in-law recommended Dr. Alas to me after I had endured a year of terrifying visits to my…read moreprevious dentist for a dental implant and crowns. Dr. Alas restored my trust and faith in dentists again. He is professional, knowledgeable, personable, kind and gentle. Dr. Alas fixed a crooked crown that my previous dentist put in crooked twice and had refused to fix it. My teeth cleaning was thorough and gentle and the staff is friendly and welcoming. I already made my next appointment and I definitely recommend Dr. Alas.

I met with Margarita, the patient relations coordinator, to go over my treatment plan. When I asked…read moreabout the cost of anesthesia, she told me she couldn't provide that information without rewriting the entire plan. At that point, I had already been there for over 90 minutes and couldn't stay any longer, so I asked her to find out the cost and call me with the information. She never did. My dentist's office manager followed up with their office on my behalf, but no one could give a clear answer. Margarita was again asked to contact me. I called once more myself and was told she was with a patient. Despite multiple follow-ups, I've never received a response from her. The lack of communication and follow-through has been very disappointing and unprofessional.

My son was referred out to a oral & facial specialist because his wisdom teeth was impacted and…read moreneeded to be removed under sedation. At the first visit I wasn't happy with the front desk girl. I was told that I would have to pay for dental X-rays again since the dental office did not provide sufficient pictures. I wasn't explained why and she just continued to tell me the price. I was a little bit in shock as the dentist office did take pictures. I contacted my dental office and they continued to explain that the X-ray taken was sufficient, but his office requires a full picture including the back of my son's mouth and they don't have the capability to take those pictures. Since he's a specialist (Dr. Esla) he would have the machines to take the proper pictures required to move forward with the extractions. The office is right by MSW. It's nicely decorated inside and it's a lot different than other Doctor's offices I've been to. The walls are painted black and it actually looks nice. Patient rooms are pretty big and the office is on the 2nd floor. All the staff we encountered was super friendly and everyone made my son feel comfortable. Prices were affordable and they offer payment arrangements if you need it. My son said his wisdom teeth extractions weren't painful because he didn't remember it. The process didn't take long at all. I came in at 8 and left about 9:30ish. This office is quiet, they look like they know their regulars. A few patients came in after us and the girls knew them by name so that seemed nice. I called them later after my son's appointment because I forgot to get a note for school and while I was on hold I learned a lot of new things about the doctor. He does a lot of other services to make Bakersfield's people beautiful. I thought that was neat. I would definitely recommend family and friends here. The office doesn't take long at all. They do not overbook and they treat the patients nice. The staff also seem happy which is nice to see. When the staff is happy, the patients seem to be happy too.

Gabby was so sweet from the second I walked in, and made me feel really comfortable the entire time. Dr. Sharobiem was very gentle, explained everything step by step, and made sure I was okay throughout the procedure. What really stood out to me was that the Dr. Sharobiem even texted me a few hours after my appointment to check on me. That level of care is rare and meant a lot. If you need any kind of dental work done, especially something more involved like an extraction, I definitely recommend coming here!

I am sad to say that, in the last few months, Capital Dental has gone downhill. They are expanding…read moreto open new departments, such as a dental academy and a children's branch, so they are always way behind schedule and much more unorganized than they used to be. I have been a patient for twenty years, and in the last month, I have had to reschedule two appointments due to long wait times (30 then 40 mins). Their most qualified and efficient hygienists have retired or moved on. The kiosk check-in system is also faulty and does not always go through to the front desk, so they think you're late or a no-show unless you speak to the receptionist. There is also now a host standing by the kiosks... why? I am disappointed because I pay for PPO just to continue going to CD. I vote for them for Bakersfield's Best every year. And I have referred all of my friends and family to them throughout these years. But I won't be doing that anymore. Will report back if things improve.
