Weve been making quality care more affordable since our founder, Dr. Curtis Beauchamp, opened his first office in 1903. Like a lot of visionaries back then in Los Angeles, he did a lot more than start a practice. He opened up dentistry to the people and championed the idea that everyone should have good oral health.

He did it by delivering excellent care at affordable prices and letting his patients pay over time. Back then, they called it 'Credit Dentistry.' These days, it 's how almost all of us afford the braces, root canals and implants we need.

By the 1930s Dr. Beauchamp and his son, Dr. Robert F. Beauchamp were treating thousands of patients at multiple locations. Fast forward to today, and we serve over 1 Million people a year in four states.

I will certainly start out with saying that there is no problem with the staff themselves. They are all nice, and the dentist was friendly and open about everything, even being privy to elaborate when I had questions on procedures and the like. It was just apparent that they put profit over people. I wouldn't suggest going here. As a new person going there, and being there twice. I can say I certainly had my worst dental experience. I first got my cavities filled, and after they tried to upcharge me for different things and weren't completely transparent and let me know when something was not covered by my insurance. It became quickly apparent that there is a lot of pressure to upsell you on more procedures. I then needed to get my wisdom teeth removed. I was outlined on what will happen, and then the date was set. I came before my appointment time as to be early, and started to sign the paperwork. After signing, I was notified that I needed to have other people there while the procedure was being done. I scheduled my ride back home, but the individual needs to be there in order to be under sedation. That was alright, that is simply human error. I had my ride come, and we started waiting for my turn. First, and hour past, then a second hour, at about 2 and a half hours I ended up going up to the counter and asking when my appointment was, they replied that it would be about 15 minutes. I sat back down and waited about 25 before my procedure. I was a little annoyed, but that was certainly tolerable since I would then be getting my wisdom teeth removed. They outlined the procedure, and told me that I would need to wait another hour and a half in order to finally get my wisdom teeth removed. That would make a total of 4 HOURS PAST MY APPOINTMENT!!! I was not notified that the appointment would be delayed by phone ever, nor was there any transparency on when my procedure would be at the time. I had to go, my ride wasn't keen on waiting another 2 hours to get the procedure done. We left disappointed and with a future date and time for getting my wisdom teeth removed. I then decided that I wanted to go elsewhere. I didn't want to be treated like that considering I was on time. I called and told them to cancel the rest of the procedure. They told me that I needed to come in and speak to the dentist in order to do so. I was confused, but waited on it since I was busy working. I then called back a month or two later and they canceled the procedure with absolutely no issue. I wouldn't be surprised if they charged some form of a consultation fee in order to cancel the procedure. TLDR: They put profit over the people though, and have a blatant disregard for their customer's time, and want to extract more money. The staff is nice, dentist is friendly and the people who work there are nice but it was very apparent that there is a profit over people incentive here.
