    While Dr. Gallagher might be pretty great at what he does, his quest for perfectionism cost my…read moredaughter her two front teeth, literally! Please see the photo posted on this (his) YELP page. He pulled her two front teeth so aggressively to one side to try to get her cuspid (canine tooth) to erupt. After over THREE years, we finally said ENOUGH! My daughter now goes to UCLA ortho. She had to get the braces removed and completely start from scratch again. Previous to being accepted as a patient at UCLA, she was turned away by some of the most prestigious orthos in the Bay Area and Los Angeles area. All saying that it was too much of a liability to try to "fix" what Gallagher had done. Due to Gallagher using my daughter's two front teeth to try to pull the cuspid down, they are now almost completely pulled from their roots and will need to be replaced with fake teeth. Guess who is footing the bill for all of this? Yup, yours truly! In addition to ruining her two front teeth, he also misaligned her jaw. Repairing her teeth and face is going to be a VERY long road. While Gallagher might be a nice guy (and he really is! I could chat with him for days & days) - Please go elsewhere for ortho.

I didn't have to wait long to be called back, and the assistant walked me through some basic info while making sure I was comfortable.

Called this office, they told me "the first appt" speciality person would call me back. Never got a phone call. Called them back again, waited on hold to find out they offer "adult patients" only the 1130am time slot because of all the questions us adults ask them. Mind you I never even asked one question other than can I schedule an appointment. This is ridiculous to even hear coming from any dental establishment. I'm a teacher in our lovely town, and taking off an entire day of helping children just to offer up thousands of dollars to a office, sounds beyond absurd! Pretty unprofessional and I will be taking my money elsewhere. Nor will I be recommending this place. Even have my child set for a future braces procedure and I'm heavily considering removing him as well. SMH at this experience.

    It was our first visit. I brought my two daughters here earlier today (5 and 6 year olds) and the…read morestaff was super professional, friendly, and helpful. The young ladies that work here made the visit pleasant and easy to attend. Nothing to fear for the little ones. We will make this location our primary dentist for the entire friendly going forward.

    DO NOT COME HERE. After what I personally witnessed while helping my girlfriend through her…read moretreatment, I would never trust AccuDental Salinas with someone I care about. My girlfriend paid approximately $4,000 IN FULL for wisdom tooth treatment that she STILL HAS NOT RECEIVED. I personally helped her schedule and confirm these appointments, drove/accompanied her through this process, and even called the office myself to verify appointment times. This was not a simple misunderstanding. Her first wisdom tooth surgery was scheduled for 6:00 AM. She showed up as instructed, waited, and the procedure was canceled approximately 30 minutes AFTER she arrived. She was eventually scheduled the other side of her mouth August 1 at 10:00 AM. She arrived around 9:50 AM and waited over 40 minutes -- NOT ONE EMPLOYEE SHOWED UP. No receptionist, assistant, or provider. Nobody. She was completely stood up for a SURGICAL PROCEDURE that had already been paid for. I want to emphasize that I PERSONALLY CALLED TO CONFIRM THIS APPOINTMENT. She also confirmed it herself and arranged approved time away from work specifically for the procedure. We did everything we could to make sure there was no confusion, yet she still arrived for surgery and found an empty office. The required CT scan was mishandled too. The Salinas office repeatedly told both of us that her appointment at the Gilroy location was July 31 at 9:00 AM. She arrived at 9:00 only to find out Gilroy didn't even open until 9:15 and Salinas had actually put her down for 12:00 PM. Thankfully, the Gilroy staff were professional enough to accommodate her anyway. And now comes the part that makes this whole experience even worse: AccuDental still has the approximately $4,000 she paid for a surgery they never performed. She has called and emailed requesting her money back, and nobody will respond or return her calls. I have watched her repeatedly try to get this resolved. At this point, seeing a medical office accept thousands of dollars, fail to provide the paid-for surgery, and then fail to communicate about returning the money is absolutely unacceptable. As her partner and someone who personally participated in confirming these appointments, I witnessed how badly this was handled. Watching her take time away from work and repeatedly show up as instructed only to be canceled on or literally stood up was ridiculous. DO NOT PAY THIS OFFICE IN FULL BEFORE RECEIVING YOUR SERVICE. Based on what I personally witnessed, I would strongly recommend going elsewhere, especially if you need a surgical procedure. We are now considering legal action just to recover money paid for a surgery that was never performed. I will gladly update this review if AccuDental finally responds and returns her money.

My little sister was scheduled for a cleaning at 3:30PM and they told us that she cannot get a cleaning that day because she had to get an x-ray and testing done. They did not tell us that before scheduling the cleaning and now we have to come back another day for her cleaning. My sister was not taken back to get the testing and x-ray done until past 4:40, an hour after her appointment. On a previous appointment we had there, we walked in to a whole line of patients waiting to be checked in. Not only did the staff ignore the line, but they also seemed to not even prioritize the patients already at the location since every one of the staff was doing something else. Again, another proof of them not respecting patients and their time. I highly recommend you avoid Western Dental & Orthodontics. If you want to be respected and want a professional office, this is NOT the place to go to. Even if they are claiming that they will "internally" try to fix this issue, I do not see any progress with that. Honestly, I DO NOT think it will ever be resolved.
