Superb dentist and great crew.
June 25, 2021Joselito M.Verified patient
All staff was nice and polite. Being that I was behind on my dental upkeep(I blame covid), they developed a plan to tackle my issues and concerns to get my teeth to where I'd like the to be!
They were extremely gentle during my cleaning WITHOUT me mentioning that I used to call my old dentist the "Butcher" due to the pain and bleeding that came with cleanings.
Definitely recommend.
June 10, 2021Shanna D.Verified patient
The doctor likes to run on time. Follows covid protocols. Front desk very nice and friendly. The doctor is very cautious of how you feel during your cleaning. My experience was over all great. I felt comfortable and all my concerns were answered.

I have been a patient of Dr. Mendiola since 2007. I have very sensitive teeth and she is very gentle. I moved to Orange county from Los Angeles in 2016 and I am still a patient. I do not want another dentist. She is the best.
April 22, 2021Karen N.Verified patient
Dr. Mendiola is friendly, honest, and explains answers to questions with the precision and patience of well, a pro! I always get nervous seeing new doctors, so feeling comfortable was a huge deal for me. Also being listened to and then spoken to with honesty and respect -- huge game changer. I really appreciated the office! Great staff too :)

as good as a dentist appointment can go!
December 17, 2020Michael H.Verified patient
Dr. Mendiola is always kind and warm. She's been my dentist now for years. She was the first dentist for my daughter who was a toddler at the time and she and her office were so patient and welcoming; I will never forget that. The office staff sat and colored with her while I could get my check up. Every dentist I've ever been to in S. California has herded me in and out like cattle but I always feel like Dr. Mendiola's office is more like extended family.

I like it !
December 12, 2020Lizzeth B.Verified patient
Dr Mendiola has been taking care of me for a few years now. She is pleasant & professional, has excellent chair side manners, and is gifted with a light pair of hands which is important in dentistry; I almost don’t feel anything during procedures. Her team pursues what is best for patients while at the same time giving patients all information needed to make a sound decision.

The dentist and her office staff are very friendly. She went over my x-ray results with me, and she thoroughly explained all treatment options to me. Her teeth cleaning was gentle, and she was always mindful, of my pain or discomfort. Also she is very accommodating towards customers with busy schedules. I would highly recommend this dentist!

Dr. Mendiola has been my dentist for 14 years, and with each new job I get I recommend her to my coworkers, some of whom have also been seeing her for over a decade. She's gentle, professional, and listens to what you need.

I have been a patient since 2005 . I have extremely sensitive teeth and used to need novacane for cleanings. No longer. Dr. Mendiola is very thorough and gentle. Her staff are the same. I moved to Orange county in 2016 and I drive 50 miles now for my appointments.
