Seriously. Total strangers. In the grocery store, at the mall, at restaurants, in meetings (I volunteer in the community and attend meetings), on planes, even in other countries (travelled a lot in recent years too). It always widens my smile and lifts my spirits when I get complimented on my smile - it was an investment in my health and myself. Thank you Dr. Mitchell for your awesome work, attention to detail and the absolutely amazing staff who make it all possible! Me and my whole family are the beneficiaries of Dr. Mitchell's handiwork. Thank you!! Keep on smiling! (Or see Dr. Mitchell till you love to!)

Disappointed by Front Office Experience…read more The orthodontist and back staff at MBO Orthodontics in Salinas are truly great -- kind, professional, and attentive. Unfortunately, the front office experience, specifically with Alma (the receptionist), has been consistently unpleasant. On multiple occasions, she has been dismissive and rude when I've asked legitimate questions about costs and the "retainers for life" program. After paying over $2,000 for my son's treatment, I was told I needed to pay an additional $800, so naturally, I wanted clarification. Instead of a helpful explanation, I received an attitude as if I was bothering her or asking something unreasonable. Her tone, body language, and lack of patience made me feel disrespected and uncomfortable -- This is also not the first time. In the past she had been calling me "hun" or "honey" in a condescending way, which was inappropriate given her attitude when I simply had questions. Because of this, I ultimately chose not to move forward with any upgrade services this time. It's unfortunate because the clinical team is excellent, but experiences like this make a lasting impression. People remember how they're treated, especially at the start and end of care, and this interaction really overshadowed an otherwise great experience. I also get it, it's hard working in customer service but it's not right to treat anyone this way or even just a few people (like me and others once in a while). I really hope MBO Salinas calls me to validate my concerns and maybe answer questions I was left unanswered because I still don't understand the service I am still interested in and need.

I would give Modjeski a perfect 5 stars if it was not what happened on my last appointment about 15…read moreyears ago. It was the last check up when my braces were removed. He wanted to file down the tips of my two front teeth. I thought he would use a ruler to measure to get it even but he just eyeballed it. I now have one tooth a slight shorter than the other. At the time, he told me that eventually they would even out...humm....yah...right. He is a wonderful orthodontist but this was a quick procedure that I think was not considered thoroughly by him. I came originally to get braces for a more even mouth after all. He could have been more exact but instead brushed over my concern and now my two front teeth are uneven. I see this every time I look in the mirror and will continue to for the rest of my life....sigh. My family did pay in advance for the braces so it would have been appreciated if he would have been more thorough at the end.

Before Dr Modjeski I had extreme anxiety when it came to visiting a dentist office. I was beyond…read morenervous to start the process for adult orthodontics. However, from my first appointment with their office, to post follow-up appointments, I've received the best care and was made to feel comfortable the whole time.

He was invested in my teeth and my smile and wouldn't let anything stop us from our goal. I'm grateful for the level of care I received and thankful I chose the right dr for this process.

She was kind, gentle, and took the time to make sure I was comfortable throughout the entire appointment. Instead of feeling like just another patient, I felt like someone she genuinely cared about. She was incredibly thorough, but everything she did was done with such a gentle touch that it honestly felt more like a spa treatment than a dental cleaning. I walked out with my teeth feeling incredibly clean and a smile on my face because the whole experience was so much better than I expected. Everyone at Next Dentistry was friendly and welcoming, which made the visit even better. If you've ever been nervous about going to the dentist, this is the place to go. And if you have the chance to see Candy, consider yourself lucky. She made what is usually my least favorite appointment one that I'm actually looking forward to next time.

I lost a tooth after trusting a dentist at Dental Concepts, whom I originally thought was the…read morenicest one there. I initially went in for a second opinion because my former dentist told me a root canal needed to be redone. However, this dentist told me it wasn't necessary, so I stayed with him. Shortly after, he even cleared me to get braces. Four years ago, another dentist at the same office saw me and confirmed that the same root canal did need to be done. Because he was my primary dentist, I had to wait to see him for the final word. When I finally did, he said I was fine. I saw him again this past January, and he told me everything looked good. However, the hygienist I saw in March pointed out that the tooth needed to be fixed, noting it had already been flagged by the other doctor four years prior.They finally scheduled an appointment for him to do the root canal, but when I arrived, he told me I now need an implant. For years he told me I was fine, and then suddenly I need an implant. He completely failed to keep me informed about what was actually happening with my teeth. I am incredibly disappointed in him, and I feel deeply saddened by how this was handled. I trusted him completely, and it hurts to know that my tooth could have been saved if he had just listened to his colleagues and properly monitored my care. The office manager told me that writing a bad review wouldn't make me feel any better. However, I am writing this so that others don't have to go through the same painful experience.

At first, I thought, " Wow Smiles!? What does that even mean? Lol." When I entered the facility, I…read morediscovered something in this office that has been lost in many businesses. Human kindness and compassion. I was not just one more business deposit or a number in their charts. I was a human with a heart, thoughts, and a life that mattered. Every time I enter their office, I am greeted with a smile, they remember who I am, and show genuine care. In their online client portal, each patient has a chart it asks questions like what your favorite hobby or color. They care to know more than just business and braces. I wish more companies and organizations worked like this. Their philosophy is that everyone should have an equal opportunity at a beautiful smile, and so they do not require a deposit and their monthly payments are as low as $130 per month. I had only dreamed of having braces in the past because it was too expensive and living in Santa Cruz County is too expensive even with a college degree, plus I am a single parent. Because their prices were affordable and there was no down deposit, I was able to get braces for me and my daughter who is in middle school. We both went in for an evaluation on the same day and got braces together. Our self-confidence has increased when it comes to smiling brightly. I see my daughter smiling more often and now I know why. P.S the staff is very funny as well. :)
