Dr. Turk is an excellent dentist - always conscientious and professional - it is obvious that he truly cares about his patients' well-being. In addition, everyone in the office is welcoming and very helpful. From Angelica the office manager to Julie my hygienist, they are all a pleasure to deal with! I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Turk and his team.

Dr. Turk has been my dentist for years, even before he moved to his new office. Even now that I live in Riverside County I still drive in for all my dental care because of the great care that I always get in his office. Everyone is super nice, and will do anything and everything they can for their patients. Everyone in the office is a friend. Angelica has been there forever. Thanks Angelica for everything! And thanks Dr. Turk! L. Kay

My favorite dentist! My friend recommended him to me and I am glad she did. Everyone is very personable in the office and Dr. Turk does a great job! I went there after another dentist messed up my teeth so bad I could not chew on one side. Dr. Turk corrected the mistake and Angelica worked with my insurance to make sure I did not have to pay some crazy amount to have the worked done twice. I actually enjoy going to the dentist again. Dr. Turk also does not have you get unnecessary work done. The dentist before him gave me a crazy laundry list of work that needed to be done and when Dr. Turk looked at me he told me only of the necessities. He understands not fixing something that is not broken. Even tooth cleanings with Judy are pleasant, she gives you good advice and doesn't tear your mouth apart. I know my review sounds odd for a dentist review, but it has truly been a great experience.

Absolutely wonderful! Dr Turk and his staff are excellent. I am a complete pansy when it comes to dental work but this office makes everything much easier and less stressful/painful. They truly care about you and I personally feel that they truly want to make the best choices for you as a person and not just for them as a business - uncommon in my experience. I have now moved over 45 minutes away (one-way) from them and strongly consider driving that entire distance just for a cleaning. That good! Anne used to clean my teeth and she was very gentle. I would ask for her, by name. Do you know the person's name who cleans your teeth (not your dentist, but the person who does the cleaning)? I never have before at other dentist offices but it was such a different experience for me that I asked "who was that? I want that experience every time!" Some things that the office did for "pansy me" (self-described -- not by them!): they used some of the topical anesthetic during a cleaning to make it more pleasant, they go slower and are more careful than other offices (not herding cattle), if a shot is required then they can allow a little time for it to take effect before drilling/working, and they can even offer nitrous (at a cost) if you are as bad as I am sometimes. They also recommended different teeth care procedures that have made a significant difference for me. I have traveled a lot for work and have gone to a lot of other dentists (over 10-15, I think). Why haven't any of them given the same wonderful and effective suggestions? For the most part, I think they are not as customer focused. The other dentists are more concerned about pumping people through and getting as many services done instead of caring for the person sitting in their chair. Perhaps they aren't as experienced and/or knoweldgable either. I am not sure. I just wish more dentists were like Dr Turk and his staff! Try them out. Personally, I think that you will be glad that you did.
