“My only complaint is that I have very very sensitive gums and teeth and he wasn’t very gentle like I asked, my teeth hurt for three days after. I highly doubt someone with normal teeth would have any complaints though. He was good at answering all my questions and asking me the right clarifying questions. I was surprised the dentist actually cleaned my teeth and not an assistant. I waited maybe 30 minutes to be seen, staff was very friendly. They speak Spanish. ”

“I think I waited for 30 minutes, not too bad. It was really busy the waiting room was full. They’re pretty efficient though, once they saw me they were pretty quick and asked me good questions and answered all my questions. ”
