My 3 children ask to go to the dentist, it's an enjoyable experience for them. So different from the atmosphere of fear when I was young. This will encourage them to continue caring for their teeth into adulthood. They have had about 10 checkups and two have had some crowns.

Se toman el tiempo para explicar el procedimiento, son muy amables y siempre tienen una sonrisa en la cara. Los niños se sienten en confianza les fascina ir a sus citas dentales

My daughter was referred to this dental clinic for work that our primary dentist could not do. So far it has been a great experience. He staff was excellent and the doctor explained everything.

After a horrific experience with a previous dentist, you guys have earned my 9yr olds trust. I greatly appreciate your efforts to gain his trust....He no longer gets nervous or is afraid, I thank you once again........

I don't recall the name of the dental assistant assigned to us, but she was very friendly to both my daughter and I, offered explanations for every step of the process, and was professional. She also ensured I had no questions at the end of my visit. As usual, I was very pleased with my visit at the Dental Ark. It is the only place I will take my daughter for her dental needs.

I complained to receptionist in front of how long our wait had been all she said was she couldn't do any thing about it. Our wait was an hr and a half.

Everyone is always great at explaining any procedures that are to be done. It's always great to go into the office. Everyone always has an up beat attitude.

I have been bringing my son here for 3 years, and it improves with every visit! Practically no wait time, and super friendly staff. Keep up the great work!!

The woman whom I assume is the receptionist wasn't too friendly and was fixing her makeup when I walked in. I didn't understand what I had to do when I was signing in and she called me up she sarcastically giggled and told me I had to re-do it.Other than that our visit was great as always.

My daughter feels a little uncomfortable with the Dental assistant she got that day.Other that Dr. Nett is an AMAZING Doc my daughter enjoys when and how he talks to her.
Mar 2, 2016
The wait is usually pretty good. The downside however is that there are several dentists so your child can see a different dentist in every visit and give you different opinions on treatent, which is what happened with my daughter. One dentist scheduled her for treatment/procedure with another dentist and the day of her appointment the other dentist didn't feel she needef the procedure done yet. Unfortunately I won't be going back.
Feb 25, 2016
I was very pleased with my visit here, they explained me very detailed what my daughter needed to get done and why and they answer all of my questions. Staff is very friendly! Highly recommend this place.

This visit was probably my last one I take my kids to, we have been coming here for years and we have to wait over 30 minutes or more for our appointments. I had to complain not once but twice. Very unprofessional and will not be going back there again.

The dental hygienist was too hard on the teeth cleaning, they were busy talking to each other instead of focusing on the cleaning. It was very painful and uncomfortable for Patricia. She will not be coming back.

I arrived at 2:10 for a 2:30 appointment and the kids were not taken back until 3:30. The appointment should have been set more appropriately not having us wait 1 1/2 hours that's unacceptable. Not sure if we will return for this reason. I dont have that much time to waste.

My Daughter was taken back and I was told to sit in this room and wait. Wait for them to call me back as they always have done in the past they brought my daughter and said she was done. Out of all the yrs I have gone I have always went to the back with my child . In this case I'm not sure what happened and nothing said they had changed the rules . Not sure if my daughter will continue to go here .

Dr. Lin was great ! She really took her time with my son and to explain my situation. I was skeptical of returning to the Dental ARK, but with Dr. Lin's visit. I was convinced it's OK. This visit was much more comfortable than the last few. It is too bad, that the Dr.'s change every visit and we can't see the same Dr. It's hard to appreciate one and the next visit you have to see a different one.

Even though Dental Ark is not opened Saturday's like all these pediatric dental offices. Dentist/Doctor Maldonado was highly recommend, so I put my trust in the Dental Ark.

I LOVE the speed of service! My daughter and I are always done with our appt in less than an hour, sometimes even within a half hour! The staff is very friendly too! The only addition I would make would be for the provision of activities for children while in the waiting room. Even something as simple as coloring pages and crayons. Anything to assist in keeping children occupied while waiting. Otherwise, very happy with the service here.

Oct 12, 2015
The dental hygienist (forgot her name) was extremely gentle and friendly to my daughter who was very nervous about her visit. She was very patient and took the time to explain procedure/ tools to her and that was very important to me. Thanks to her, I am confident my daughter will not fear the dentist any more.
Oct 11, 2015
I felt please when I got a call later on thru the day on how my daughter was doing after her treatment. Plus they gave me more information on how to help her feel better. Thank you

The ongoing process you have to update personal information is annoying. Also, I have in the past been invited to sit in your "parents only" waiting room. I have noticed that your staff no longer mentions that, but the sign is still on the door when I go in to pay.
Oct 5, 2015
I would appreciat that when there is an issue with the child's teeth that as the parent I can also see the dental films during the explanation.
Oct 3, 2015
I strongly believe that if major treatment will be conducted on children, parents should be allowed in the room. My daughter was alone in the room and was not able to get her treatment due to the fact that she was scared and to make it worst she did not see me there.
Oct 3, 2015
My daughter complained about the male dental hygienist poking her gums. That's the first time she complains..other than that the staff is always friendly and courteous.
Oct 1, 2015
I have been to other dental places and you all don't compare to any of them. The service is so awesome! You guys always make sure the children are well taken care of and the parents know what is going on at all times. Keep up the good work Dental Ark!

Sep 24, 2015
I wasn't comfortable with the doctor taking care of another patient before my my daughter and I. We waited for a very long time for her to finish a family of five and then right after for her to skip us to assist a crying toddler upset me because we were there first. We all have appointments for a reason. I will not be returning.

My child was extremely nervous about having treatment done, which caused her to be uncooperative and the only approach the tech and dentist used on her was a firm voice approach, which only escalated the situation, causing my child to be even more scared during the whole ordeal. They could've tried a soft approach to calm her down, or maybe even called me before it was too late, but they didn't try any of the above. When the tech finally brought me in it turned into more of a taddle session on my child instead of a status report on my child's health/current condition. After about 5 mins of hearing the woman taddle on my child I asked if I could see her, and she finally let me back to observe her. She was hysterical and scared and I can't believe they let her get so desperate. I wish they would've called me sooner before the dentist decided she was too hard to work on. I believe I could've calmed my child down so the scheduled procedure could've been completed.

Toys and more TV options in front waiting room would have made the 1 hour wait less miserable. Three TVs with the same tween Disney show was a mismatch for most of the ages of kids in the waiting room. And overall I felt like my children and I were being processed through a well-decorated factory.

Just the dental hygienist stated that it was abuse not to brush or floss the teeth twice a day with 2 special needs children we are lucky to get them to brush. Daily. She did apologize but I think maybe she should be a little more careful with her choice of words with special need children and their families
Aug 14, 2015
The receptionist was very understanding when I had to return to have my sons teeth cleaned after receiving two crowns and saw that cement was still left on his other teeth. I would like for staff to review status of children's procedure before releasing them. So that this can be avoided in the future.

I was very pleased. Always have been since day 1. My Son enjoys his visits every time. All your staff has always been understanding & compassionate.One suggestion-not to have to confirm same information every visit especially if it is within the samey year. It should ask if any changes or updates need to be made not force you to fill out same info.

Have a separate waiting area for those with appt for treatments. I know there is one for parents only but for those of us, like in my case I had my other daughter, with family. With an area maybe to read or watch TV. I was there from 9:30 until 2:15. Very long wait. Also to give parents an update if taking longer than usual such as in our case. My daughters pressure was taking longer to rise and I didn't find out until I asked what was taking so long. I would've like to have been informed without having to ask. Thank you :)

Waiting a hour and a half with an ansy 2 year old isn't ideal. I understand that it's still summer time in everyone's getting the kids in before back to school but I think scheduling I needed to work done this past visit. The hygienist was awesome my son loves her she was quick and helpful and very nice. The only other delay we had was the computer in the x-ray room not working wasn't anyone's fault but it added to the wait time

Amanda was very helpful and friendly when I asked how much longer the wait would be. My wait for my two boy's teeth cleaning was way too long. My appointment was at 12:30 and I didn't leave your office until 3:00. This was somewhat frustrating. I know that your policy is not to allow parents in the dental area and I can respect that but I would like to be taken back once and a while to consult with the dentist. My son's have been going to the Dental Ark for about 3-4 years and I have yet to meet any of your dentists. Overall, my boys are very comfortable with your facility and your employees are always friendly and courteous.

Our appointment was scheduled for 9am on a Monday, we were not seen until after 10:23 and only because i complained to the receptionist. After that the actual time with the dental providers was really fast, its just you need to work on realistic expected wait times when scheduling your appointments. And, honestly say that you are running late..

We have always been quite pleased with our experiences at Dental Ark. However, it seems that the wait times have been slowly increasing and our visit this week ended up taking considerably longer than we expected. We had an appointment at 8AM and were not finished until around 9:45 for a simple checkup with x-rays and cleaning.

The experience was very different from the other times. The dental assistant was kinda rude by making it weird that my 3 yr old was scared and crying. Comforting my son she asked if he was my only one and I said yes. She then said oh no wonder. I think that was rude. I didn't like other comments she made. The dentist was great though and said it's ok he's scared. I almost got billed $13 but said I paid over the phone because when I mailed it, it was never received. I hope my experience is better next time. I felt a little upset that the dental assistant doesn't understand that my 3 yr old is just a young person who gets scared. I guess being an elementary teacher I have more patience with children and their needs.

1. Every time I bring my daughter for a checkup the check-in process is different. Would be nice to have some stability. 2. We arrived 15 mins early, as instructed, to fill out paperwork. We were not called in until 45 mins past our appt time. As a result, we were waiting for over an hour. My 5-year-old was in a great mood to see the dentist when we arrived; after an hour wait...not so much. She is learning to tell time and wanted to know why her name hadnt been called at the proper time. We spent more time waiting than the whole of the appt. I don't see how that is acceptable.

Jun 23, 2015
We need to wait avg 2hr its alot of time for me :(

I liked how y'all provided the parents with complimentary cofree or tea. That was nice.

Overall i was happy with our visit however, nothing against the dentist we saw, but informed the lady that made my appointment that we only want to see one dentist that was DR. Baker. I was informed that it even states that in my son's chart. Plus we rescheduled his appointment because Dr baker was out of town on his original appointment date. So we rescheduled to see another dr? No, I am very displeased about this, again nothing against the dr we saw only that she is not the dr i chose.

Great visit and the staff put my daughters worries at ease in regards to the fillings and the whole process.

The employee sitting at the front desk (did not have a chance to get her name but she is the first person you see when you walk through the door) is always very nice and helpful. We had a pleasant experience with my daughter (she is a special needs child) and will continue to go back. I will highly recommend the services of the Dental Ark to other mothers of special needs children that I come in contact with either through meeting them at my daughter's school or at other gatherings such as at Gigi's Playhouse. The staff at the Dental Ark are very nice and thorough and patient.

While trying to checkout the two women at the computers; only one was actually working(the blonde one). The Brunette on the left was gossiping with some other lady with glasses and green scrubs while I sat and waited. Amazing the total disregard of our presence (my daughter and myself). Not even a "she will be right with you ma'am, this window is already closed"..... something. Other than that I would like to be asked with Dr. I am looking to see. I picked the dental ark for a specific doctor I didn't realize they had others.

Everyone is wonderful !! Wish there was a window I can see through when my daughter under went procedures.

Jun 3, 2015
Staff friendly and courteous. Kids overjoyed with toys given to them after exam and cleaning. My two boys chose a lion and tiger masks. My young daughter chose a ring and other daughter chose a flippng/popping gadget. I like the smooth process of signing-in with computers without worry of verbalizing sensitive and personal information to staff with people nearby to overhear. You can't be too careful with identity theft. My four kids were escorted back to play area for service by staff member, while I waited in front waiting area relaxing and watching t.v. Then, after my kids cleaning and exam, they were escorted back. The employee explained to me their dental exam outcomes and then was taken to staff member to reschedule 6 month appointment. She patiently helped me choose a date that was convenient for me. Overall, quick and easy. Happy mom and Happy kids!

The dentist assistant we got was rough on my daughter my daughter is 2 and she was not afraid of dentist until last visit we had. My daughter understand and will do what I ask her to politely but when it was time for her cleaning the aid forced her head down n fired gee mouth shut to see her teeth with mouth closed. I did not like that one bit. I understand it needs to be done but age wild of done it just by me asking her to. I did not like she forced her right away after she asked her to close her mouth. They only trust certain people and when a stranger ask something they won't do it. Unless their parents ask them and they know it's ok for them to do it. A dentist visit for a kid isn't pleasant as it is and for her to have done that well now she will be scared of the dentist thanks to her. All they have to do is ask parents to tel their children what they need to do. Not force them and if so ask their parents if it's ok and explain ejy it's necessary.
May 21, 2015
There was a male receptionist who was kind and told me about the parent waiting where I could get coffee and tea. Not once in the years I been going there have ever been told about this. It would be nice to let parents know. I know kids are not allowed back there but let them know in advance. There nothing for the kids to do in the waiting room you had video games now that out. My kids have been asking to go to another Dentist where have games thing they can enjoy while waiting for there appointment. On this day my appoint was on time but other times we are there more than an hour waiting. As for parents not being able to go back there is ridiculous. The reason am still there is because changing everything is such hassle and starting al over again. You should have a section for procedure to be done where parents are able to go with their child and the other section for only checkups. Its big enough to do this.

The dentist did not address my son's dental needs with me. She did a 5min check up with him the dentist spoke to the dental hygienist then left without discussing anything with myself (the parent). During the review the hygienist summarized my son's dental needs and did not leave any options for questions or discussion. I felt like the extreme follow up was recommended without choices being presented. Because of this I will be seeking a second opinion and my be switching dentist office. I was greatly disappointed with the communication.

Overall, the staff was courteous and professional. The environment was calm and clean. During and after my son's procedure your staff took great care to make sure he was comfortable and calm. The only downside, in which I did understand, due to the fact he needed to be sedated, was my son's appointment was scheduled for 1:30, and we were not called until 5. Overall I would highly recommend Dental Ark.

Wait time was too long. The lady that took us to the back ignored our daughter. She did not greet us. And my daughter tried telling her hello but was not very welcoming or assuring to a 5 year old. I did not owe anything and got charged anyway. You people really need to call my insurance and ask questions. Don't be so lazy. I had questions about my daughters baby teeth and felt rushed out.

First off i had to wait almost an hour in the waiting room over my appointment time. The hygienist I had was extremely rude and condescending.

The young lady at the entrance was very friendly and welcomed us for the first time. Everyone was pleasant but the process needs to be better explained for first timers. Then they take your children and drop them off in a play room and take you else where and that did not make me very comfortable. I also was not impressed with all the cavities and work Dr. Chavez recommended when 6 months ago Dr. Stevenson personally saw my girls and did not recommend anything other than to watch a 2 possible cavities on Alexsandra Pimentel, my oldest. The price is outrageous and now I understand why your business is so huge and booming. The visit took 2.5 hours which is too long and in the end I felt like it was just a business wanting to charge me way too much money and left me very disappointed.

I did not appreciate that on our way out, after mentioning that we do not use a pacifer at all with our son, was told we MUST start using a pacifier. My son does not use one nor suck on his thumb so we did not like at all that she insisted that we use it. I would mention her name but to be honest we were not told what her name was nor saw a name tag. Other than that we truly love this dentist.

As soon as we walked into the door we were greated and assisted. The electronic paperwork process makes it much easier. The staff is very friendly, cheerful and caring for their patients. They took the time to develop a trusting relationship with my daughter that led to her having a great experience. It's very important for children at a young age to have a great experience with the dentist so that they will continue in the future with regular visits as adults, proper cleaning and hygiene. We look forward to our next visit and hope each visit goes as well as this last one.

This is he 2nd time visiting the dental ark. I'm left just as disappointed as I did the first time. I had to wait almost 40 minutes past my sons appointment time both times. I expect to wait 10-15 minutes but not 40. Only after I told the receptionist that I was canceling my sons appointment and we were leaving did they seem to move with a purpose. After the dental assistant brought us back, we waited another 15 minutes after he was done with his portion. We will not be coming back. The staff were very friendly and helpful despite the wait time. I believe they book too many clients at the same time.

My appointment was at 1:00. I showed up at 12:50 and my kids didn't get called back until 1:30 so we waited 40 mins in the waiting room. Then I sat and waited 1 hr. Finally I was getting a little upset so I went to check on my kids. At that time I was able to go to the back when the Dentist examined them. I know there were a lot of people but I don't think it should take almost 2 hours. Also to fill out the forms on the computers, I liked it better the way it used to be because it was a more one on one with the receptionist. And if I had any questions they are there. Thank you

Since this dentist is mainly for kids, we need to understand, kids do not know patience yet. Therefore, if an appointment is scheduled at 11 and you are not being seeing until 1230, while you are in a waiting room full of other inpatient and rowdy kids, is not the best or most ideal situation. Please keep your scheduled times!

It would be nice to have the dentist speak to you and let you know what was found and what needs to be done. I don't like that the tech is the one giving the information.

If you are looking for a kid and parent friendly environment Dental Ark is your place. My son got his braces there so we have been going for over 3 yrs. He loves them and they love him back. They are true professionals and extremely friendly which gives kids and parents relieve.

I would like to be able to come in to the examination during my child's visit.

When calling the patients name a designated digital number or speaker for the assistant is needed. When you have a group of individuals, kids crying or yelling it is very difficult to hear. A number could be given to the parents when they return the tablet to the associate. Then as the children are called a number would be posted on a screen.

I got there a little late because of traffic when i get there the receptionist told me that they would probably not take me in anymore because of that she went to check after 45 minutes she comes back to finally tell me that they would take my son in she was very rude and disrespectful i was getting ready to leave and by the way i did tell the the dentist

When I called to try and get my son an appointment and explained his situation I was told that there no availability for about 1 1/2 I was persistent and they were able to squeeze me and understood that my wait time would be long which I totally didn't mind because my son ended up having an Infection which required a tooth extraction ASAP, buy overall the staff was really friendly and informative

I'm usually very happy with the service and our visit/experience when my daughter has her appointment, but unfortunately this last visit wasn't. Usually when walking in to the facility, we're greeted and asked to sign in. This time around there was nobody around to greet us or ask us to sign in. My husband and daughter proceeded to take a seat while I stayed standing and waiting to see of the receptionist would come out. After waiting 3 minutes I had given up and had to reach around the desk and signed my daughter in. My daughter's scheduled appointment was at 9 a.m. and we arrived at exactly 8:51 a.m.. After waiting 45 minutes, I knew something was wrong. I proceeded to explain to my husband that on a prior visit, your facility had forgotten about our daughter and how I was told our daughter's appointment was wrong and how I had to prove I had confirmed her appointment and even had to show my appointment card. He then went up to one of the windows and asked one of the employees if our daughter was near getting called in (since two other patients who arrived after us had already gotten called in)and she told him she would be called in in 5 minutes. Granted that by now we had been waiting to get called in for over an hour (1 hour 15 minutes). 5 minutes came and went as did 10 and I was growing more and more upset. My husband sensed my disappointment and frustration and asked again what the hold up was since we were told "5 minutes". The attendant who had previously told us our daughter would be called in in "5 minutes", grew frustrated with my husband and cut my husband off while he was speaking and told him " There's a certain way our patients are scheduled, they get called in according to the procedure being performed/needed and the severity and whenever your assigned doctor is available." My husband returned and angrily told me what was explained to him and that our daughter would be called in when they were ready for her. That was the breaking point. By now we had been waiting 1 hour and 25 minutes. I've been working in customer service field for 9 years and I completely understand things happen and that's ok, but I also know the customer/patient is main priority and how important it is to keep them happy; but since this was the second time our daughter had been forgotten and after hearing the unprofessional and rude tone given by the attendant, I had had enough. I proceeded to walk up to another window (by then the first attendant was speaking to the facility manager (Mrs. Loya) and asked a different attendant if she could give me a website or a number to place a complaint about our unpleasant visit. This attendant was kind and apologized and asked if instead I'd like to speak to the manager to which I agreed to. I took a seat and around 3 minutes later Mrs. Loya came out and introduced herself to me and asked me to follow her in to a private room. She told me how sorry she was and that our daughter was going to be next. When I asked if my child had been forgotten about again she gave me a puzzled look and asked "again?". I then explained to her that this wasn't the first time this happened and she was baffled. She gave me her word and told me she'd make it a point for this incident to never repeat itself again. We then were called in and the rest of the visit went smooth as usual. Inside, the staff as always gave great customer service and was very apologetic. I'd say if it weren't for them I'd probably be looking at another dental facility to take my child. I truly like The Dental Ark and its so hard to find a doctor not only we (my husband and I) enjoy going to, but our daughter as well but wouldn't hesitate to look elsewhere if this repeats itself especially after being promised it never would again by the facility manger. Looking forward to our daughter's next visit and see how your facility improved from this last appointment.

I was pleased with the dental hygienist and dentist but very disappointed in the wait time. My sons appointment was scheduled for 830 and we weren't taken back until 930. Waiting for an hour with an 18 month old child was frustrating. Additionally, our appointment was to see dr baker but we ended up seeing a different provider with no explanation.

Loved that we were given a tour & treated kindly- for the most part. Excellent hygentist, I think her name was Joanne. Dentist was friendly & expained our options well. However, after the cleaning, my son who is 16 & on the autism spectrum, was taken alone to have the sealants done. After we left the office he expained to me that he was told to relax his tongue & even though he thought he was, he was tense so the worker pushed on his tongue to the point he was crying. I asked him if she noticed, but he said she was talking to her coworker. I asked what she was taking about, thinking maybe it was about how to help the situation. He said, "that's the worst part! She was speaking in Spanish so I didn't know what she was saying!" To be honest, I was so pleased with the whole experience until he told me all that- the part I was not present for.

Overall it was a good visit the only thing I didn't like was that the doctor seemed as if she was in a rush to finish up with my kids and move on to the next. I usually get to talk with the doctor attending my kids, but this one didn't even ask if I had any questions or concerns I had to stop her as she was leaving to ask a question.

I didn't feel it was appropriate for my nine year olds cleaning to consist only of coronal polishing done by an assistant. When I asked for an RDH she said she would come in later and finish. Indeed she came in but all she did was count teeth. Since I am in the dental field I knew this was just a total rip ofpf I could have done this at home. Services like this are ok for those who have no dental knowledge and really have no icof what to expect. Will not be returning, will look for a different provider,

I didn't like that I had to approach a staff member about something that could have been avoided. Overall I usually get attended within my appointment this time it was not so great.

We had called prior to our visit because my daughter had a 11am visit and needed to make sure she would be done because she was in the spelling bee at 1pm. They assured us we would be fine on time. We got to the appointment early and proceeded to wait over an hour, when I asked why the wait was so long the woman in the front informed me that they had bumped us back because a mother of four had come in and need them out soon for a school play. When I mentioned the earlier call and assurance I was given ,she informed me I should have told her when we got there because only she can make accommodations. I have always been treated well here and this last time I felt like this particular employee was pretty much saying your appointment time isn't a guarantee time. The reason I made sure before was so I could reschedule if needed. But for anyone to be able to walk in and take priority over my appointment and other patients' appointments is not right. I hope this never happens again.

I was not happy with the way the treatment costs kept rising. I did not like the fact that my daughter cried for me during procedure and no one came out to get me. I did not like the fact that once the procedure was over the dentist did not come out to tell me how it went and how my daughter did during treatment. I did not appreciate being told by 3 different dental assistants what procedures needed to be done, they did a horrible job of explaining procedures being recommended , not very clear on explanations of treatment, like they did not know or understand what they were talking about, very uncertain . I was truly disgusted on how procedures were added on that my daughter did not need, we got a 2nd and 3rd opinion, so we are sure she did not need the added procedures/treatments.You all are a big scam of a dentist office trying to make you're money off of innocent people that don't know any better!! Shame on you!

Although the visits at your location are good, I would like to see the same dentist on every visit to maintain consistency. The last dental "cleaning" consisted of teeth being polishing and flossing only? Previously, the use of a pick was done first to remove plaque.

After 10 minutes of waiting she called me and asked me in this words " who are you? you missed to put in your signing sheet what are you? are you mom? I just told her yes I am the mother she just said" I'll put it for you this time..ok" honestly I like every one in your office I have never got a situation like this in your office but this ladie in the front makes me uncomfortable because I have seen she is friendly with other parents but not with me and do not know why I had never seen her in my life. I am thinking of changing dental doctor because I would not like to see this person again.

My daughter loves all the animals starting with the huge elephant that greets you as you drive up. It's spectacular. She always says goodbye on our way out stopping to look for and count all the little mice hidden around the ark. That's a priceless moment it opens our eyes to see our baby become an infant and now a toddler.

Chloe had to have two fillings and I really appreciate the doctors working us in to get them done the same day. The staff took the time to talk to me about the different types of fillings and addressed my concerns regarding the different material used. I was slightly uncomfortable with the fact that I could not be in the room with her during the process. However, the staff was positive toward my daughter and me allowed me to look in and check on her. I also appreciate the extra time taken to check on her before we left as she was complaining of pain. Everyone was thorough and positive.

The staff was very nice and professional. I felt my son was very well taken care of. The only thing I would have liked was if there was more child appropriate toys/activities in the waiting room as we had to wait a little and I have a very active child. But overall I would recommend the Dental Ark to my friends (and I did).

The staff can try and be a little more understanding to a patient that is sick or trying to get seen by the dentist faster. My appointment was at 1 . 30 minutes past and no call. I had arrived at 12:50. It was a infant that was going to be seen . Does not take long at all.

The only thing I was not pleased with was that my "financial options" were not completely explained to me since no one ever said that I DID NOT have to pay over $200 out of pocket for sedation. I have always assumed that I HAD to choose that for my chidren because no one had ever explained to me otherwise until I questioned it before the service was rendered.

First visit to the dentist. My daughter was at ease with the hygienist. She made her feel safe and talked to her properly, she didn't scare her. Dr. Already suggested filling and sedation! Not sure how I feel about that. Was hoping for time before they suggested such harsh procedure.Maybe I should have researched this part more. Will go back and ask more questions amybe a second opion.

Dr. Lee was not helpful at all to explaine my concern and not only was it concern it was an emergency visit.
Feb 23, 2014
we were early by at least 15 min to our appointment because I knew it was for 3 children and we still waited 20min after appointment time to be seen. it wouldn't be so bad if it had been an appointment for one but for three it was hard to keep everyone settled. one other thing was that my 2 year old was happy to be examined the first time by the assistant but not so excited the second time with the actual doctor. perhaps doing everything in one sitting would be better for the smaller children. overall I am very satisfied and all employees are helpful and my children were very comfortable. these are just minor suggestions. see you all in 6 months.

My 2 children had appointments the same morning. One (14 year old son) was having sealants only and the other (6 year old daughter) was having fillings, a crown and sealants. I was in the "parents room" waiting for 45 minutes when I was told my son was done. After payment was made, I asked if he and I could go back into the "parents room" and was told no. This upset me tremendously because I was very nervous/stressed that my daughter was under sedation and having to go back in the regular waiting room with lots of noisy children was overwhelming. I had been told by the dental assistant who cared for my son that we would be allowed back in there. Then to be told no was very disappointing. I could understand if my daughter was done first and not being allowed in there , but that was not the case. My son was not going to be running around or be loud to make the other stressed out parents in there uneasy. I had to call my husband to leave work to go stay while I drove my son home.

Parents should be allowed to be able to see their child especially if only 4yrs old before a procedure is done and have the doctors/nurses explain to them what is gonna happened and if there are any side effects. After I paid for the procedure. Nobody decided to explain to me anything or even let me see my 4yr old. If I wouldn't have asked what was going on i wouldnt have never known they already had not only started but finished with my child's procedure without my know

Our 13 month old had her teeth check and flouride vitamins applied, her visit lasted less than 10 minutes, however, we waited in the lobby almost 2 hours. The flouride gave her a rash on her checks by her mouth, cleared up the next day. The carpet in the lobby is very dirty, it was difficult to keep our daughter off it as she is very hyper and can not sit still for almost 2 hours, understandably. Thank you.

Ms. Rebecca is good out front, she is a nice greeter and a friendly face. She knows us and we talk. She is a good first "thing" to see upon entering the office!! She is a little spacey/ goofey sometimes, but really sweet. OK can I say "thank you" for removing those climbing animals from the waiting area. Not sure if they were decoration or what?? but just left for little bodies to want to get on them...climb, fall, fuss over. It's a dental office not play area again really appreciate you "Xing" them. And I'm so ready for long term sedation scheduling etc requiring hours with dental work since you have that new "Adult area." Love it and we can finally eat and drink. I had stayed hours out in that waiting area cold, lonely, disturbed by other's kids, hungry...I have to have my DP fix. Bless you for rearranging the employees break area and thinking of us!! Much, much appreciated. Love your staff too. New mom of twins, bottom braces (Kimberely I think), Brenda in ortho...etc

This appointment was the first time that I was unhappy. I did not appreciate the hygienist's attitude. She seemed bothered with my answers and even tested me on one of my responses about the juice my child drinks as if trying to catch me in a lie.She was probably having a really bad morning but should be more careful about taking it out on clients. This was upsetting but other than her everyone else was friendly and professional.

I had an appointment for both my son Cody Lindsey (17 yrs old)and my daughter Cassie Rubio (3 yrs old). I filled out a card when I first got there that both my children were to having their teeth cleaned but they took them in separately. The wait was long they took in people that had come in after me. I had to tell them that my son was also there for a cleaning. Then in the middle of my son's cleaning they asked me what else I wanted done. I had to tell them I want done what ever my insurance covers nothing more nothing less. The gentleman said he was going to check with my insurance but never got back with me to let me know what else they were going to do.

I don't think I will be back for the fact that parents are not allowed in the back. I understand that they will be ok but as parents we need to see what the kids are going thru that nothing bad happens to them.

You guys are really great and friendly. My son is two and impatient so it helps me a million when you guys are so patient and understanding. I've been places where the staff isn't so friendly and I just feel so stressed and uncomfortable. But I don't dread bringing my son to come see you all here. I know he is taken care of and I am comfortable:) Thank you guys!

Angie the dental assistant on Monday July 8th at 8am was very sweet and kind after hearin the news that my daughter would need crowns I was very bummed out. Angie helped me understand and made me feel better about the situation and explained beautifully the procedure they were about to do. Thank you very much!

I am very happy with my experience. However I live on the the far west side and drive 45 minutes to go to your facility. It is worth it considering the good experience we have, but would love a west side or even more centrally located site.

I forgot to ask about the extractions that were discussed for my daughter during our last visit. I was under the impression that was going to take place at this visit but it was never discussed. Will that still be happening?

A mother and child's first positive experience for a first time check up at the dentist.

the wait time is to long, 2hrs before being seen, from one waiting room to another.
Jun 10, 2013
I would definately recommend The Dental Ark to my family and friends.
Jun 7, 2013
I felt like the wait to see a dentist was to long. The transferring us to lobby then to billing then to waiting room then back to billing to approve the out of pocket was redundant & obserd. Then when I requested to be with my 8 year old for treatment I was treated like I was asking for too much. This is our second visit & I was much more dissatisfied this visit.
Jun 5, 2013
I had the appointment Thursday the 30th of May. The lady who was outside telling people to sign in was extremely nice. She was the one who made me feel comfortable and at ease! She was keeping me updated with everything that was going on with my daughter. Thank you!

I was in shock and dissapointed.by a little issue.but a big one , we got a plastic bag . Compliments . That included tooth brush,tooth paste ,floss and floss tooth pick used!!!!!! Had lipstick and it was used !!!! I didn't say anything . I was kind in a rush . But I'm telling u now . Please make sure u check your goodies before given them away.it was disgusting !!!

We ran late to our appointment but were still treated wonderfully and did not wait long at all to be seen. My son looks forward for his dental appointments, but missed getting his after checkup ice cream. We both are huge fans for the staff and dental office as a whole. Thank you so much!
May 18, 2013
Tuve que esperar bastante tiempo para que me recogieran por que no tenia transporte ese dia. Tengo un problema medico por el cual no debo pasar mas de dos horas sin un snak. Tuve que comer unas galletas discretamente en la sala de espera y alguien fue y me hizo sentir muuuuy mal por que rompi la regla de no comer. Afuera hacia mucho calor y por eso no me sali a comer. solo eran unas pequenas galletitas para no sentirme mal. Espero que mejoren su criterio y piensen que si un adulto rompe las reglas discretamebte, merece algo de respeto. Estoy muy decepcionada, por que en general todo su servicio fue excelente.

May 5, 2013
My daughter said her overall experience went well.She is 8 and her anxiety level was high due to this being the first time she has needed major work done. They allowed her to take her teddy bear with her and she said most everyone was nice. The only time she said she felt uncomfortable was when she asked someone what a certain instrument was and the response given to her was,"You don't need to worry about that." I was saddened to hear that. I feel most children are already afraid about what is about to happen, mostly because of the unknown, and an answer like that doesn't help much at all. I realize they don't need to know everything but if a child asks, the least you can do is provide them with a kind answer. Even a generic answer like "Oh, that's what I need to use to help take care of your teeth" would have been much better and more comforting, I believe.
May 4, 2013
Excellent service very short wait
Apr 21, 2013
I would really like to see more toys or entertainment(crayons/coloring books, Lego's)something for the children. I had a difficult time with my little girl waiting in the waiting room for over 40 minutes. The animals were removed and we were watching The View which is not entertaining for kids. But the staff was friendly and the service was good!
Apr 20, 2013
It was an excellent visit my kids love going there
Apr 18, 2013
I have a little one that is quite shy and very nervous when left alone. When she has to go in alone, it frightens her and she says she feels like the staff doesnt care and that she was told no to cry and to be a big girl. Her previous dentist allowed me to go in with her and hold her hand to help her feel more at ease. When I mentioned this to the front person, she responded by saying "imagine if we allowed all the parents to go in, that would not be good". I decided to cancel her last appointment and move her back to her previous dentist.
Apr 15, 2013
The staff are all very friendly. They treat my kids very well. The wait time was very minimal which is very important when you're dealing with children.

I was upset that I was not given the option of being present during the exam. I am a dental provider and the assistant that gave me the results of the exam did not have enoughv knowledge to be doing that.

My 2 yr old and 7 yr old love coming to this office. It's professional but all about what kids need!

MY DAUGHTER WAS SEEN AND TAKEN CARE OF FAST AND QUICK AND THE STAFF ARE VERY FRIENDLY.
Mar 1, 2013
once the exam was over the dental assistant who went over what was done was rude. When my daughter grabbed the bag that contained the toothbrush and extras for my son the dental assistant yanked it out of my daughters hand and told her not to play with it that it was for her brother. It doesn't matter who the bag was for my daughter was only holding it.

This dental office has great service. I would definitely recommend to everyone!
Feb 16, 2013
I waited almost an hour before we were called in. If I don't decide to return, this will be the sole reason why
Feb 10, 2013
Figure out a way to notify patients of schedule changes. If you decide to close on a day you have appointments make sure that you have made a real attempt to let the patient know you will be closed - either by phone or email. I still think that not reaching us to tell us my daughters appointment was cancelled is inexcusable. There are so many tools at your disposal to remind us about her appointments. Sending texts and email confirmations prior to her cancelled appointment also sends mixed messages.

Excellent service from everyone. Everyone was very helpful.

My son loves to come to his appointments . That to me says a lot about his positive experience.
Dec 23, 2012
There was adult shows on the television in the waiting room. I am not sure why kids need to understand how to make holiday desserts.
Dec 23, 2012
Every single time my son has an cleaning, I'm always there at least 3 hours. The staff is very friendly. I would not recommend this place to no one.
Dec 20, 2012
My son fell and hit his mouth I immediately called the dental ark and they immediately made time to see him. I'm grateful for them taking care of him!!!
Dec 19, 2012
I would like for my son to be called as soon as its time for his appt or at least a few minutes after. I dont want to have to wait over 30mins bcuz sometimes we have other appointments and its makes us late to wait too long to b seen.
Dec 12, 2012
Everything was great! The dental assistant explained to us how he reacted to the procedures and what they did to him during the procedure. The procedure that was done on my son I was thinking he was going to be scared when he came out but he wasn't.
Nov 28, 2012
I had a great experience with the front office and my son was treated well.
Nov 14, 2012
The dentist I met during this visit was not only a skilled doctor but a polite person. She took the time to explain to me the situation of my child and made sure I understanded her point of view.
Nov 2, 2012
everything was ok no changes needed
Sep 5, 2012
The wait time was not as long as other times i have gone with my other children. Overall the visit was good.

From the first phone call to schedule the appointment to leaving was the best experience I have ever had at any dental office. Dr. Jason was great showing me everything that needs to be done. I'm impressed with the professionalism of the staff. Thank you again!

If pacient has braces you should be able to take the pacient instead of needing to find another dentis to contine the treatment.

My son needed dental surgery and after two hours he came out happy and laughing. I asked him if it hurt and he said a little then wanted to know when he could go back to school. I wish this place had been opened when i was a kid!

Our visit was great! The only thing I would like to mention is the pregnant lady at the front seemed to be in a bad mood therefore did not like the service she gave me. Overall everyone else was wonderful.

Children that are scared shouldn't be so close to those that aren't. My daughter did fine until another child was screaming and crying. Thus put fest in my child and she began to cry.

We like that parents are allowed to go with their kids during the exam.
Jul 8, 2012
I was very very unhappy with the overall service. First of all the waiting time was too too long was out 3.5 hrs later. My appt time was not respected. My appt was at 9:40 an hr later they called me and only my son went in waiting over another hr and finally asked the ladies in the front desk where my son was. It was my first time there and was clueless no one bothered to give me tour until I asked where my son was and why it was taking so long. Will not be going back!
Jul 6, 2012
Requested to go in with my son for his cleaning and was told they would call me in. I was called in after the fact. Would consider changing dental provider, as I would feel much better being able to see what services and how my son is treated.

Jun 27, 2012
My daughter had a great experience during her visit. I was very pleased how the staff was attentive and informative.
Jun 24, 2012
It was a long wait time. I do not think it is right that you take the kids to the back area and have them wait by themselves there. I refused to let my 3 year old daughter stay by herself and one of the young ladies up front was rude because I didn't want my daughter to stay by herself. One of the reasons I chose this practice was because I was under the impression that I could stay with my kids thru the WHOLE process, including x-rays and such.
Jun 19, 2012
Marissa was outstanding, great customer service. Suggestion ---- I would have appreciated if someone would have informed me ahead of time prior to treatment regarding my financial options and my payment responsibility.
May 24, 2012
We in and out in less than 45 minutes. The people there are nice and friendly.
May 24, 2012
I noramally have rave reviews about attending the dental ark appointments. However,my first ever complaint was the wait time. My son's appointment was scheduled for 12:40 pm (we signed in at 12:23,) however we weren't called back to see the dentist until after 3:00 pm. I was finally leaving the appointment around 3:30. My son and I had both missed lunch in order to make the appointment from work/daycare travel and we didnt get out until it was almost dinner. I had to take a half day from work, because I would not make it back before the end of day. Since the nice renovations, it seems more people attend the clinic. It was a grat move for the business, however it is hurting loyal customers. I am considering finding a dental clinic that isn't as busy.
May 17, 2012
I think there is not much to change, we were out of there really fast, that's something that us parents that work and took some time off work to take our children to their appointment really appreciate, thank you.
May 11, 2012
Understood everything and made my son feel comfortable
May 3, 2012
Everything was excellent. We love this place!
May 2, 2012
a day or two after my children had their visit, I learned on an informative chanel; it was considered bad to have so many x rays, even though the strength has been reduced tremendously these now a days compared to forty years ago. Melanie's Brother was there for his exam one week, then the next week x rays were taken again. I had an ache in my self after seening and hearing about the subject on the news. I wondered why two x rays for Matthew so close together? I would like it if I can say no to the extra x rays, when any of us parent(s) would like to rule it out concidering it was going to cause an eary on set of a serious condition, and in my case he just had one a week prior to his second
Apr 30, 2012
Lady at the front was a bit rude, she seemed annoyed and not very willing to help. The hygienist was nice and informative and all of the assistance were extremely nice! If it wasn't for the lady in the front, I would give it 5 stars!
Apr 28, 2012
todas las veces que he hido me ha gustado como me han atendido, estoy muy contenta con el servicio.

I was referred to The Dental Ark by Kool Smiles. I absolutely love this place as well as my daughter. I recommend it to everyone.
Apr 27, 2012
The waiting room area in the front is very chaotic. I'm not really if anything can be done about now but not a lot of effort when into it. I would have liked to see something better than an elephant & tiger which I saw at least 3 kids fall off & cry. I'm surprised someone hasn't broken their neck yet.
Apr 27, 2012
MY CHILDREN AND I LOVED THIS DENTIST!!! The staff and doctors were so polite and wonderful. Thank you so much!
Apr 26, 2012
One of the administrative assisstant was not a proper mood. Did not greet properly was a little rude.

We live in northwest El Paso and love the service so much that we travel to your far east location! Thanks for making every visit a great one.
Apr 21, 2012
The best dentistry experience ever! My kids love it! The staff is very professional and educate the customer to better understand their oral health and healing. After my kids' dental work I received a follow up call that same day to make sure post-operative procedures were being properly followed at home. That has been highly helpful for me as a single mother. Thank you Dental Ark!

Apr 9, 2012
The woman seated in the front office to the right was not very professional at all. There was a misunderstanding with my insurance and she refused to hear what I had to say. I was forced to call the insurance myself to clear up the issue. Her attitude and the way she spoke to my should not be tolerated. Next time I will ask for her supervisor. At the time, my main concern was my child and getting her home to rest after her dental work.
Apr 8, 2012
The Dr. that saw my daughter was very very nice and so were the hygienist and assistant, but the front staff were a bit rude.
Apr 4, 2012
To many patients at the same time... The waiting is too long

I recently change dentists for my 3 year old and our experience at the dental ark was excellent. All the staff was very friendly and helpful and the place is fun and entertaining for the kids. Time past very quickly and considering the treatments given, everything was done in a timely manner. Definitely would recommend!
Mar 23, 2012
I am really happy with all the great work you do. my son was scared to see the dentist but ever since his been with dental arc he feels more safe, thank you for treating the kids with a lot of special care.

I loved the reaction that my kids had. It was wonderfu not see them afraid and allowed the personal do their jobs.
Mar 7, 2012
My two daughters recently had their first visit to the dental ark and were very comfortable with the services provided. Staff was very friendly and everything was explained in detail.
Mar 5, 2012
I would of liked to stay with my sons during the treatment. i understand being right there with them may cause a reaction from them, but I would PREFER a viewing area at least.
Mar 2, 2012
i would of liked to stay with my sons or at least in a viewing area while they were being checked.
Mar 2, 2012
This was my daughter's first visit to the dentist. She had such a good experience that she told me she had fun and has been asking me when she can go back!
Feb 26, 2012
It was a great visit. Thank you for the survey. =D
Feb 25, 2012
I feel better about going to the dentist now.I like how you treated me.It was fun when I went there.
Feb 24, 2012
EVERYBODY IS VERY FRIENDLY
Feb 20, 2012
The only changes I would like to see within the Dental Ark is a decrease in the wait time from the time of your appt to the time you are seen. Also I feel parents should be allowed to be in the room with their children for appointments.
Feb 19, 2012
We were very pleased with the overall visit. My daughter really enjoyed the waiting room and he play roomin back is really great.
Feb 19, 2012
We had a great overall experience. I love that Dental Ark caters to children and parents!
Feb 19, 2012
Wonderful experience. Wonderful staff!
Feb 18, 2012
Just wanted to thank Dr. Maldonado for the support she is giving Team EL PASO...my husband is part of this team! Also we have never had any complaints about The Dental Ark...we have taken our son there since they opened!
Feb 16, 2012
Allow parents back at any time and during the entire surgery. Saundra was very nice and helped tremendously!
Feb 15, 2012
Cartoons or Children's Movies on waiting area instead of news channels.
Feb 9, 2012
I have been there three times and everytime I have seen a different dentist and everytime that I see them I realize that the dentist has not read the charts, therefore they cannot realize if there has been any changes in my son's teeth since last visit. I feel that by not reading the chart the dentist does not know what he os she is dealing with and they have to reevaluate my child for the firts time. I would rather see the same Dentist everytime and would like for them to read my child chart. My Son has tonge tied and I need to know how he is progressing, I do no see any problems but I am not an expert that is why I got to the dentist. When I made the appointment the receptionist told me I will the the same dentist in the next visit but for one reason or another, the dentist was not available and this third time I got a call from the office trying to re-schedule one day before the appointment when I had my shcedule all planned.
Feb 8, 2012
This was the first time for any of my children where I was not allowed to be with my child during the procedure.it

I was very happy to know that Jade's teeth are healthy. The previous dentist wanted to do unnecessary dental work that was going to cost my son, a single parent, lots of money. We were very happy with your services!!

This was Caleigh's first real appointment. It was very comfortable for her and she was not scared. I was happy with the woman who explained our options and are very satisfied.

Everyone was very professional and we were all comfortable and not scared, such as from our last dentist appointment.

It took a while to be seen, we were in waiting are close to an hour before getting called in. Im thinking that the reason why it took us that long was because it was our first visit and we had to register. I was very pleased with the customer service, all of my questions were answered. I felt very welcomed and my children enjoyed the services that they received. I am very happy to have made the decision to switch over to Dental Ark. Thank you very much for the attention that was given to us and for being patient and explaining the procedures that were preformed. I will definitely recommend friends and family to go to Dental Ark.

My son was very nervous about seeing the dentist for the first time. However, the atmosphere, the staff, and the dentist were so friendly and so helpful that he can't wait to go back for his 6 month check up!

I had attended another Dental facility they were not professional at all. I came to the Dental Ark and they were very professional. They explained everything better and are very helpful. My kids love coming here.

The staff was great, very friendly. My kids loved it and want to come back everyday.

The only thing I am not thrilled about is not being able to stay with my child during the visit. This makes me uncomfortable (leaving my child with strangers).
Jan 10, 2012
My past experience with your business was not such a pleasant one. This last visit went beyond my expectations. Great service. Looking foward to our next visit.

Maybe You could come up with something to have a shorter wait time. I had a 2 yr old and a 7 year old and it's hard to keep them still for that long. The appointment was at 1230 and we did not leave the place until 1500. That's just too long for an exam.

the best dentist office I have taken my Son to!

I've been to 3 other pediatric dentists & none have been as informative and friendly as you all. Plus the financial information options you gave were an unexpected relief.

I took my two boys and one was confused with the other one. Thet gave the local anesticia to the younger one. I don't know how that would happen..simply unacceptable.

I had a great experience! Especially since I took my son to another dentist that morning and had a really bad experience and left that office crying so I came to the Dental Ark and my son was seen that same day and had his teeth filled and caps put on his teeth. Not only was all of the staff very friendly I was very happy with the way the dentist and the hygienist explained and showed me many times where the cavities were in my sons teeth.My son felt very comfortable and that is what matters ! I have been telling all my friends to take there children here. Thank you all so much !

Everything was great! I love that everyone is so nice and friendly! My son is 2 and he did not cry once. Love this place and would recommend to other people!!!

I have been going from dentist to dentist trying to find one who I felt good about taking my kids to. Finally I tried the dental arc and they love the atmosphere and the staff.

I absolutely believe the staff truly cares about the well being of children's dental Heath. Dental Ark is a friendly and comfortable environment. Would definitely recommend!!
Oct 22, 2011
The staff was very professional and friendly. The office has many ways to keep the children occupied while you wait. Most importantly, they took the time to explain my son's dental needs and made him feel extremely comfortable. He now looks forward to going to the dentist. Thank you Dental Ark!

I personally have a huge fear of dentists, stemming from childhood experiences with the dentist and that has affected me to allow the care for my teeth to have issues. Having Kenna being excited and not afraid to go to the dentist is the best thing I can hope for in my children. Thank you for treating her like a person and not just a number. It makes her experience a good one and her willingness to want to continue to go to the denist! Thank you for the good work!
Oct 21, 2011
I love the awesome and very nice staff! My daughter was always terrified of the dentist until now, she enjoys the warm & caring atmosphere. She is 5 yrs old and loves that fact that she can go into the exam all on her own! The offices are always clean and neat. Thank you for your great service! =)

as a new patient, i had to wait for over an hour to be seated. my paperwork packet was handed to me over thirty minutes after my son and I arrived. the service was OK with lots of room for improovement. the oriental dentist that attended my son could have explained more upon further treatment and patient education.
Oct 19, 2011
it was good for my son, but he is still afraid of the x-rays. is there anything I can do to help before the next visit?

We're not too comfortable with the Dental Ark, my son seems not to mind, mostly because of the games, etc. provided while he waits, but my wife and I are considering taking him to our own dentist, no perks but we seem to have less items charged for our visits, whereas something always seems to come up for his visits, even though he hasn't had any cavities for the past year. It's still up in the air but my wife has pointed out these charges, and I'm going to side with her on this one. Thanks for everything; you're still way better than that other dentist we used to see, Dr. "Quack" Tippin, by leaps and bounds. Thank you again.

Poor Overall Service - Waited 4 hours past our appointment time before my son was pulled in, after he was pulled in they only did half the work that was scheduled due to the doctor being delayed with one other patient that day. If that wasn't bad enough, staff stated to me that now splitting it up into two visits will now cost me more vs. had we just done it as scheduled in one visit. Absolutley Ridiculous! ... and if that wasn't enough... my son stated to me that the person who was working on him stated to her friend (another co-worker)several times "don't leave without me for lunch, I'm hurrying". My son is 16 years old and completely understands the ramifications of hurrying to complete a task... it meant to him that she could possibly hurt him the in the process or take short cuts when compeleting his fillings just to ensure she could get out of there for lunch As a result, he laid there the entire time in fear that she was going to rush and hurt him. Not exactly the customer service I would have expected. Especially since we are trusting you with our children as a result of not being able to be in the room with them.

Great reception. Great dentist. Great hygenist. Bad scheduling/finance clerk.

always satified with the work but booking too many patients during the same period leads to a long waiting period and that is frustrating

Your office staff in scheduling is always rude. We will no longer be patients of yours because of your obsurd office hours. It is not reasonable to expect families to take their children out of school only to suffice your inconvenient hours (3pm closing). A. Garcia has no business dealing with the public. She has absolutely no clue as to what customer service is let alone how to smile. She was so rude when I tried explaining that my daughters school would not allow me to take her out more than 3 times and how we had already reached 2. Very annoyed by issue was to say the least. We've been coming here since you first opened and it was much more pleasant then although I have never agreed with not allowing the parent to go back with small children. Seems as if once you had your facelift, your only priority was to herd in the patients like cattle and the customer service value when out the window. Will not recommend anyone here, ever.
