Went here because they told me I could get my teeth cleaned within three weeks (1 week after today's appointment). Told today was just about getting x-rays. Developed a cough 5 minutes after walking through their doors. The lady who called me back didn't speak much English. She took 18 individual x-rays which took like 20 minutes because she was new. I sat for 40 minutes after that in a dental chair waiting for the dentist to inspect my teeth which he did. Finally, I was about to schedule my teeth cleaning. They asked "when works best for you?" & I replied "as soon as possible." Then, not to my surprise really, a lady said "The earliest we have is December" (it's mid August now). They said the dentist I saw was moving to California soon & they were going to hire some new dentists, Covid is the reason for the delay in dental cleaning, yada yada yada. I just don't appreciate being lied to. Totally unprofessional & a waste of my time and money. I now am spitting mucus out of my throat that I didn't have before I went there today. So gross.

I am so happy Dr. Manchester is back! She is the best dentist I have ever had. I've had such horrible anxiety about going to the dentist and she was very understanding. Now when I go to see her I have very little anxiety. She works fast and efficiently! Love her! The Dental Tech Tatiana is also very pleasant, she is my favorite. These two as a team are awseome!!

My children and I had new patient appts together here on the same day. My son, 5, had a great time. My 15 month old daughter did not. I had told the front desk that I wanted to be notified when my daughter and partner were called back so that I could be there for her first dentist appt. They did not notify me. I heard her screams from across the office, 10 patient rooms down the hall. I waited 2 minutes and she kept screaming. This was not an "uncomfortable" scream, it was a "I'm scared please help me" scream. I told my son I would be right back and I followed her screams down the hallway. I reached her room where the doctor had her head on his lap, the rest of her body on my parters lap. The doctor was pinching her cheeks open and placing massive amounts of fluoride on her teeth. Fluoride has been shown to cause lower IQs if given to children under 5. One of the reasons why I wanted to be in the room with her. Me: "What's going on" Dr. looked at me confused as if he was acting completely innocent: "Just applying some fluoride" Me: "No, not until she's 5" Dr: "Dad said it was okay so I assumed it was" He did not apologize, simply made excuses. Dr: "Do you have anymore questions?" Me: "Yes, why didn't you use the mouth spacers instead of your hands?" Dr: "It hadn't occurred to me" I picked her up Dr: "Do you have any more questions?" Me: "No, excuse me." And left the room. My appointment didn't go well either. The nurse kept repeating "good job" after each tooth X-ray (there was 18+ because she had to retake a few) She spoke to me like a child. The doctor came in, a different doctor than my daughters because I specifically requested not to work with that doctor. They told me I needed a tooth cleaning and to schedule a tooth cleaning at the front desk. My insurance paid them to X-ray my teeth, that's it. I scheduled a tooth cleaning, they told me that the tooth cleaning was to be scheduled 6 months out due to the "tooth cleaner" only being available one day of the week. So I did. Fast forward 6 months, they called me to "reschedule" my appt another month out because the "tooth cleaning lady" would be doing lengthy procedures each day she was available. I said no, don't reschedule me, I'll call back if I want to reschedule. Rewind to the doctor pinching my 15 month old daughter's cheeks apart on his lap, I had asked my partner what the doctor said during the appt. He said the doctor came in the room, the nurse stood by the sink Dr: "ok you're going to put her flat on your lap and hold her arms down to her body while I count her teeth" He did not try to speak to my daughter or comfort her. He didn't say a word to my daughter, only gave instructions to my partner to restrain her. I called the office 3 months later to file a formal complaint. The woman I spoke to insisted that was proper procedure and the doctor did nothing wrong. I asked to speak to her supervisor and she replied angrily "yeah sure I'll have him call you" then she hung up on me. 3 days went by and I received no call. I spoke to my WIC program lady and she gave me the supervisors name. I called him and he had no idea I had called 3 days prior. He apologized for the woman's behavior and said he will make sure that all doctors are aware that they need to speak to every patient, regardless of age. I do not know if this was followed through. I went to Access Dental recently and they gave me a full teeth cleaning and 2 porcelain fillings in less than 45 minutes. I will never go back to seamar. They have a terrible customer satisfaction rate and work with out of date policies. They think because someone is kind to adults that they couldn't be out to hurt children which is exactly what predators are like. They are charming, kind, sociable but when cornered with a child they are forcible, unwavering and "always right". Do not go to Seamar.

Dr didn't even wash his hands before coming into the room and proceeded to painfully stab my gums unnecessarily. Whole place was a mess

If you're thinking about going here don't, I'd rather you go somewhere else this place is absolutely dismissive and rude the staff at the front desk does not care no help whatsoever if I could give a zero I would. Absolutely horrible service from Ryan D Cordero MD he did not care for my daughters concerns, the whole team just wanted to push us out of the clinic and made it a horrible experience for my daughter and I.

ABSOLUTELY AWFUL SERVICE. I SPENT THE LAST YEAR GETTING MY KIDS ESTABLISHED WITH THIS FACILITY. EVERY TIME I TRY TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT THEY REFUSE AN APPOINTMENT WITHOUT AN "INTAKE" APPOINTMENT. i HAVE 3 KIDS A JOB, AND SCHOOL. I CAN NOT AFFORD TO TAKE OFF 2 SEPARATE DAYS FOR 1 OF US TO BE SEEN TWICE FOR A BASIC CLEANING. YOU HAVE OUR RECORDS AND YOU CONTINUE TO MAKE US COME IN FOR INTAKES. YOUR ALL ABOUT THE MONEY. NOT ABOUT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE OR YOUR CLIENTS. I WILL NEVER SPEND ANOTHER PENNY AT THIS PLACE AGAIN.

I have been going to this facility for a few years and just love everyone. Do I have to wait, yes, they are busy but that's because they care and take the time needed to help. The staff is exceptional, very caring and thorough. Cecilia Christensen, best ever. I have never had an issue with calls or emails, probably because my expectations are real. They get back to me in a day, if a message is left and again the staff is awesome.

I made an appointment for a second opinion on a tooth and I'm still sitting here waiting almost an hour after my appointment time and I'm informed they are still with another patient. Why would you schedule so many patients if you literally cannot keep their appointment times?! Like how irresponsible and dysfunctional is this facility

Thursday March 4th. I am here for a dentist appt at 8am. There is me, the front desk lady taking temperatures, and two other patients. It is Covid season! I counted 4 employees walking in for their shift without a mask. I am not the paranoid person regarding masks. But I was floored with how many medical employees weren't wearing masks. The front desk lady was great and told the man working in the first doctors office, (seems to be more management) about the situation. Yet another 5th employee walked in for their shift without a mask, he stopped her to put a mask on. I literally cannot believe medical employees in a pandemic, weren't wearing masks. While passing patients in the lobby. I am a regular patient and was not impressed.

I went to Olympia Dental for my cleaning and wow was it better. At Sea Mar the cleaning was always agonizing and they'd tell me that that's just how it was. At Olympia Dental they were so nice- they numbed my gums so that they wouldn't hurt, something that wasn't offered to me at Sea Mar even as they watched me in agony while getting cleaned. Step it up
