I recently had a crown broke so I went back to Dr. Cluff's office. Her daughter, Daughter D (Diana) took care of me. She is so nice, explains everything so well and so professional, just like her mom!! The staff is awesome as well. I don't have dental insurance, only Medicare and it was quite pricey to do the repair and make a bridge, but they did give me a break on the price. I can't imagine going to any other dentist!! read more

From the first phone call to the first office visit, I was treated fantastically! Everyone made me feel very heard and relaxed! And I have never gotten a call from the Dentist the day after a procedure in my life and Dr. D called me to see how I was feeling and if I had any questions or concerns!!!! I have already referred several people to them!! read more

I DO NOT recommend! They seem to care more about putting Implants into my mouth instead of taking care of the teeth I have. They don't check the numbers (meaning the measurement of pockets) therefore they keep getting larger to the point of having to have teeth extracted because of it. I was just there in march of this year for a cleaning and they did not check my gums for pockets nor last october for my yearly exam! Thank god I decided to see DR. Haeri (periodontist) as he found a 13mm and a 7mn pocket which I have to extract the 13mn tooth and have gum surgery to save the other plus a deep cleaning due to their INCOMPETENCE! This review doesn't include what happened to my husband with his teeth. read more

Amazing, professional care, doesn't smell like a dentist office. Staff were so attentive and it was easy peasy! Dr. Cluff is also really cool read more

Amazing little dentists office. I feel spoiled whenever I get a chance to go to a dental clinic 'out in town' and this place made me feel like I was paying for first class service. They did a wonderful job making me feel comfortable while they cleaned my teeth and filled one tooth. I hope to be able to use them again in the future, because we all know going to the dentist is not fun, at least they made me feel like they care about making it less not fun! read more

what a lovely experience! I'm a new patient for Dr. Cluff, had to go in for a broken crown. The staff greets me like an old friend, right away made me relax a bit. I'm not a fan of going to the dentist. you are given a tour of the office and a welcome gift, what? this is getting better! once you're in the exam room, you're asked if you need anything to make you more comfortable, like a warm blanket. wait, what? I'm in a dentist office, right? I'm a fan for sure, I've found my dentist and believe it or not, I'm looking forward to going back! great experience, well done read more

My son recommended this dentist to us and glad we came. Very friendly and affordable and they do what is necessary and not taking you to the ringer. read more

I just want to say, like so many other people I am terrified of the dentist. Every single person I had come in contact with was so nice and so gentle about everything. As someone who works in customer service and professional environments, I can tell these people want to help and make you feel safe with them. They will be my forever dentists. I am so happy to have found such a nice team to work with. It was only my first visit but I'm less scared of the dentist than I ever have been even though I have more complicated problems than I used to. read more

So this is my first time back to the dentist and years after a horrible experience with Western dances and let me tell you how it was ... From the jump, the receptionist were nice and accommodating, and very friendly, and made the check-in process super easy. When it was time to go back, I was given a tour of the facility shown everything from where they sterilize and sanitize to where they do different procedures and I was made to feel extremely comfortable with my surroundings . The first appointment was quick, and they quickly put together a treatment plan. I love how everything was broken down simple and to the point I also love how they broke down what I would have to pay out-of-pocket and let me tell you compared to other places and I am in with my insurance the pricing is pretty good. I walked out, feeling hopeful for a beautiful smile in the future! read more

"Outstanding office experience! Ana Cluff, DDS staff provided top-notch care while performing expertise in their craft. Highly recommend!

Everyone in the office is super nice and welcoming. The doctor is so pleasant and very aware of your comfort level. The office seems to have all the latest equipment to make each visit go quick and easy. I highly recommend this office. I'm well on my way to the best dental health of my life! read more

So, this is a pretty small office, it's kept clean and looks nice. They take care to make sure their patients are comfortable, and they ask you if you prefer for them to explain every little detail about your teeth or if you want them to just get to the point. I thought it was nice of them to ask how we prefer to be communicated with. The dentist was knowledgeable and did a good job explaining everything and lightening the mood (it's necessary when I'm about to get my wisdom teeth out! Not looking forward to that!) so overall good experience. I'd come back if it wasn't so expensive... read more

Oh my goodness, Amazing!!! This group of gals are wonderful all the way from the office ladies Nicole and I believe the other one is Sheila to Dr. D and her assistants! Wow, wow and wow!! I have some big issues and lots of work to be done and Dr. D was so accommodating and sympathetic to all my needs. read more

Dr. D has great bed side manner and puts you at ease! The ladies in the front and back are super nice and informative. I send lots of friends and family to their office :) nitrous oxide helps to make a chicken in the chair like me feel comfortable! read more

From the moment I walked in the door at Healthy Smiles, I could sense the warmth and care of the expert staff. Dr. Diana was my dentist. She identified my issues and recommended crowns that were much less invasive and costly than other dentists. She was so personal and informative that I was totally relaxed during the procedures. We call her Dr. D and she is amazing. She also has a dental assistant DeAnne who was also so warm and caring. The whole experience was so positive I would highly recommend Healthy Smiles. read more

I love Dr. D (she's the daughter). I've been seeing her since the beginning and being one of those annoying patients who get severe anxiety at the thought of having to get dental work, she knows how to get your visit done fast while explaining what she is doing and why. I've never had any issues and when I called after an extraction like a crying baby, she assured me I was just a crying baby for no reason . And she was right like usual . I just hope that my review doesn't create too many patients so that I have to wait forever for an appointment. If that turns out to be the case, I will be updating this review to not be so complimentary . read more

I am old school and not ashamed of it. However Dr. Cluff and her staff took offense to the fact that I will not provide my personal information online. What I found was a chilling experience of terrible customer service. The dentist said I was not a good fit. Perhaps you don't care if your personal information is online and a target for ID theft. I do and am looking for a good professional dentist who uses old school paper techniques among them, courtesy. read more

Excellent care, clean facility, great staff and very affordable. They show you options for your care and no high pressure sales pitches.

I just can't say enough about this wonderful dental office and Staff. Today I had my 6 month check up and I'm beyond grateful for Michelle and her excellent knowledge and tips for my daily care. 5 Stars Your All Amazingly Kind ! read more

I have been referred to Dr.Cluff from a family member. Great dentist with a good staff. Good attitude and have a good way of easing the phobia of dentists. Highly recommend. read more

To begin with, I've been avoiding the dentist for the last few years. I have had bad to mediocre experiences with prior dental offices, but I knew I had to go in. After reviewing yelp, I decided to try Ana Cluff & Associates. This was one of the best decisions I've ever made! I needed a decent amount of work done, to include replacing a crown, and changing out three or four fillings. This, along with a deep cleaning required multiple shots of Novacaine and a lot of patience in the chair. in my 53 years, I've never been given Novacaine shots where I could NOT feel the needle. Dr. Diana Cluff used some type of black magic technique where she numbed me up and I never felt any pain. The dental work that was performed was great, and I finally am over my dentist anxiety. I'm actually looking forward to my next appointment in six months! I highly recommend this dental practice, and am a verysatisfied customer. Thank you Dr D and the entire staff for being very professional. read more

I drive by this place everyday on the way home. I needed a new dentist close to home. A crown that I had from a previous dentist 5 years ago came off. I was able to get an appointment same day. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. I saw Dr Stephanie I was taken aback on how young she was. However, I do want to say she was so kind and gentle and temporarily cemented my crown in for me with no issues. I have more work to do and feel Confident she will do a great job. read more

Dr. Diane Cluff not only is a kind, empathetic, and caring person. She is also a very ethical person - truthful, fair and honest. Character matters. Her dental staff reflects her values. I highly recommend her dental services. read more

I had an old crown break off. Got in same day even though was not a crown they put on. It was 5 pm and members if staff stayed to get a temperary one put on. Everyone was so kind abd patient. I have bedn going there for about two years now and the dentists and staff are great. read more

It's hard to find a dentist when just moving in town but Ana Cluff, DDS was an excellent choice for me. Very friendly, quick, and answers all question. They were gentle with my grandchild. That's a biggy for me. Easy to get a hold of also. I am moving quite a ways away and hope I find another good dentist. read more

Amazing. Dr D. is not only fixing my dental issues, she has also helped conquer my childhood fear of the dentist. Patient comfort and pain control is her top priority when you're in the chair. The nurses & front desk are equally as awesome. They are very helpful, informative, flexible, punctual and all around professional. They do their best to work with your schedule, keep your out of pocket cost to a minimum, and make sure your comfortable with every aspect of your visit. In short; Ana Cluff DDS is the best place to get your dental work done. I wouldn't go anywhere else. They're worth every penny. Set up a consultation appt an judge for yourself. read more

Always scared to go to the dentist, they made me feel so comfortable I think I found my new dentist I got a root canal, Dr Diana followed up to check on me the following day. Thank you read more

Pretty great dental practice. I appreciate their approach to making you feel comfortable and explaining their values along with asking you what's most important to you for your dental needs. I saw dr D CLUFF who had a great sparky personality, good vibes. For my cleaning Dr Ana CLUFF performed my cleaning. We talked about tomales. Such a relatable and down to earth group. Thank you for providing me excellent dental care. I can tell listening to how they communicated to other patients there's a genuine care for their patients and making all feel welcome. read more

Dr Stephanie recommended a metal cap due to small molar, brilliant idea that my prior dentist never suggested. Efficient work, answered all my questions, staff worked with my dental insurance resulting in best dental payments for the work I've ever had. Just started with them n I expect to stay here. 12 years at last dentist. read more

Go see Dr, Diana. I had felt a lump in my jaw. I was preparing for an intl trip and the last thing I needed was to have any issues. Anyway I called Monday as a new patient. I saw her Tuesday and had dental surgery on Wednesday. Can't thank you enough for everything. They treat you well here. Glad I found this place. They are so nice and accommodating. read more

My initial experience her was great and I loved the dental hygienist. After my second side of the deep cleaning I was checking out with the front and asked about scheduling for the dental work and she said to do it at my next cleaning appointment. So I came in a few months later and asked about it, they said the cost has changed since we are in a new year and they would have to update the insurance rates. She said she would call me on the following Monday so I could stop in and go over the rates and schedule work. Never heard from anyone. Called over a week ago now and left a message to get updated cost and schedule the dental work and still have not heard back from anyone. Canceled my next cleaning appointment and will be finding a new dentist, apparently they do not need anymore patients. read more

I attempted to schedule an appointment over the phone. The receptionist was insisting I take a date she had available, even when I repeatedly explained that the date would not work. She was not attentive neither was she a good listener. Her customer service skills are very poor. I finally asked whether she was listening to me. Apparently that offended her and suddenly she hung up the call. This receptionist appears to pick up the calls for both of DDS clinics, Chula Vista and lakeside read more

Hello, I had the opportunity to see Dr Ana Cluff's office today in Lakeside. The Doctor and staff were amazing, I felt very relaxed, and in Great hands. Everyone was very knowledgeable of their jobs, very friendly, very through. They take many types of insurance, and are willing to help you with various payment options. From their work that I have seen and what I am experiencing, I would recommend this Group of Dentists to all of my family and friends. Thank you to each of the doctors and staff members.
