(Translated by Google) It is a lousy clinic. They are only interested in money. It is the first clinic that asks you for a deposit of 50 dollars to make an appointment, if you do not go, you lose them. Terrible attention Terrible anesthesia does not fulfill its mission ... it is the most common they do not even have a water dispenser you have to drink from the tap ... the tylenol is a walmart brand of the equate ... they are only interested in money. great care. I would give it 0 stars.. (Original) es una pesima clinica.. solo les interesa el dinero. es la primera clinica k te pide deposito de 50 dolares para hacerte una cita si no vas los pierdes. atencion pesima anestecia pesima no cumple su cometido.. es de la mas corriente no tienen ni un despachador de agua tienes k tomar del grifo..la tylenol es de marca de walmart de la equate..solo les interesa el dinero. mucho cuidado. le daria 0 estrellas..

Would give 0 stars if I could. The worst customer service!!! Around may 2021, they called me to confirm an appointment, (which I canceled during the call) and they called me two months ago telling me I have to pay for that missed appointment. I've been calling for weeks trying to fix the problem, all of the receptionists have told me that a supervisor will call me back after reviewing the issue. I'm still waiting for that call. Don't waste your time and money. Go someplace else.

They messed up my root canal leaving me with a horrible smelling tooth, I brought this to their attention and they ignored it! Also I don't know who they have answering the phone but worst customer service skills! Very rude and sounded annoyed to be there..

These people really need to learn how to treat customers and the children they see better. My brother went to get his braces done, and there was a stage in the process where they put a metal thing in his mouth (which i've never seen for braces) that he had to have on at all times. He had difficulty breathing and it worsened his anxiety. Instead of trying to search for an alternative, the dentist completely dismissed our issues and was adamant about using this metal thing, and said he would either cancel the whole treatment altogether or keep the metal. My parents refused to put my brother through the pain of having to wear this thing and it affecting his anxiety pretty much 24/7 as it had to stay on at all times so they switched dentists. We later found out he was no longer eligible to receive this benefit from his insurance because we had already tried with this dentist. I have also witnessed myself how their nurses/dentist aides will treat the kids, when adults are not looking, like reprimanding them or be annoyed at kids being kids. IF you don't like children, maybe DON'T work in a place that treats children! All in all, this place the behavior all the staff have shown is very troublesome for a place that's supposed to take care of children. Their complete dismissal of children's pain is messed up and they SHOULD NOT be practicing or at the VERY LEAST should be held accountable and pushed to get trained on ethics. They think they can get away with so much because they're some of very few latino-run spanish-speaker clinics.

This practice has been one of the best ones I've ever been , my family including myself have been current patients since 2009 almost 12 years ago, I have done my complete orthodontic treatment here as well as other treatments with Doctor Turcios and have had no issues at all, at the time Doctor T had an answer for all my mothers questions and we have never had any issues with the practice here and now my 2 year old daughter is a current patient and I was very pleased with her first ever dental visit, the assistant and Doctor Zarruk were very patient with my screaming toddler, if there is a service and/or treatment they cannot render in office they have highly recommended referring offices such as wisdom tooth removals with oral surgeons which they can refer the patients out to and obtain satisfaction and a job well done. I would highly recommend this practice for any dental services and/or treatment you could possibly need. Everyone is very knowledgeable and if they is something they can not answer for you right away they will strive to find and answer to better service you.

I love this clinic so much. They make my children feel safe and they never fear going to the dentist. I have been going here for years. I started with getting my braces here and now my kids are going to start their braces any day. I send all my friends and family to this clinic>

(Translated by Google) If I could give them 0 stars I would, terrible customer service, and terrible job, I went to get a cleaning and three fillings, after a month I called them because I couldn't chew with excruciating pain where they did the fillings, they charged for the revision, that the charge was made to the insurance, even so, just to tell me that everything was fine and that maybe my teeth moved because that happens with age, coincidentally they moved when they did the fillings, but that the fillings had nothing to do with my teeth moving, that's what the dentist said, or maybe it was because of the pregnancy, that I was very sensitive, she said, because I was 7 months pregnant at that time, my baby was born and the pain was the same, when I ate an unbearable pain, I called and they told me that they could check me again but the amount that the insurance covered me had almost reached the limit, so I would have to pay out of pocket for the check-up and the doctor would see if she had to pay for it to fix it, I no longer wanted to make the appointment to hear what same and also having to pay for something that they did not do well the first time, I do not recommend it to anyone, they are not professionals or responsible, and also they are only talking about personal things about people who are going to be given service, something that seemed to me very bad taste. (Original) Si les pudiera dar 0 estrellas lo haria, pesima atencion al cliente, y pesimo trabajo, fui a que me hicieran una limpieza y tres rellenos, despues de un mes les llame por que no podia masticar con un dolor insoportable donde me hicieron los rellenos, se cobraron la revision, que el cargo se lo hicieron al seguro, aun asi, solo para decirme que todo estaba bien y que tal vez se me movieron los dientes que por que eso pasa con la edad, casualmemte se me movieron cuando me hicieron los rellenos, pero que nada tenian que ver los rellenos con que se me movieran los dientes, eso dijo la dentista, o que tal vez era por el embarazo, que estaba muy sensible dijo ella, por que tenia 7 meses de embarazo en ese momento, nacio mi bebe y el dolor igual, al comer un dolor insoportable, llamo y me dicen que me pueden revisar otra vez pero la cantidad que me cubria el seguro habia llegado casi al limite, asi que tendria que pagar de mi bolsa para la revision y ya la doctora veria si tenia que pagar para arreglarlo, ya no quise hacer la cita para escuchar lo mismo y ademas tener que pagar por algo que no hicieron bien la primera vez, no lo recomiendo a nadie, no son profesionales ni reaponsables, y ademas solo estan hablando cosas personales de gente que va a que les den sercivio, algo que me parecio de muy mal gusto.
