My treatment from doctor has been professional and satisfactory.

I would recommend Dr. Goode for dental care in Brookings. He's a straight up, no nonsense, honest, quiet and polite kind of person.

I had to cancel two very important meetings to make the 30 min trip up to Brookings or go with the option of waiting a week for the next available appointment, risking the $1200 dollars of work already done on the tooth. I was able to rearrange my schedule. I tried calling back using my phone that the receptionist recognized the phone number and she had immediately put me on hold, twice. After the second hold time, I called back using my work number, and she immediately answered. I do not recommend this dentist at all.

I know exactly what I'm getting into with dentists (extensive work in the past, in many different…read morecities and towns), and I know what to ask and how to ask it about money and procedures. I've been to four other dentists in Brookings, and finally settled on Dr. Chang, since we reached clear and reasonable agreements on the work to be done and the cost. Just a note about local dentistry in Brookings: Unfortunately, dentists in Brookings are mainly non-PPO, so all services for most customers are out-of-pocket. And dental work in Brookings is more expensive than my previous rural doctor. But I found that Dr. Chang offers some discounts for negotiated procedures, and has been willing to work with me on payments. And he is, in essence, an artist. I've been pretty impressed by his work. I have had to be more patient with the time it takes for some procedures, since he is adamant about bone healing and strength. On the other hand, when problems arise, the office responds quickly. I am impressed by his personal phone calls after surgery to check up on patients. He's also rapidly available via email. That was especially helpful when I started developing a minor infection on a weekend. They have a decent website, where I can also contact staff quickly. Dr. Chang is not talkative, and tends to be all business while working. That's okay. I can ask him direct questions and get good answers, and his hygenic staff is interactive and helpful. He is very focused, and is also very attentive to detail. He has up-to-date equipment, and they monitor for health concerns.

Absolute swindler of a dentist and practice, giving me an almost $500 CT scan that was 100%…read moreunnecessary. Add in that several of the staff are condescending and rude if you have any sort of an issue, besides unprofessionally chatting about random things while you sit and listen awkwardly. You get one star reviews. I had gotten some dental implants in Mexico I needed adjusted and knew that I would need to have them purchase the right sized drivers. I sent over the documentation about my implants. They could have at any point after getting that, given me a call back to let me know that it was going to be $2000 to get the drivers. That's without any of the work. Just to get the tool to be able to do the job. At which point I would've opted out and made the decision that I made, I'd go back to Mexico. Instead, they had me come in for an office visit to find out. Kind of lame, but wouldn't be writing this review if that's all that had happened. I get to the office and the first thing they do is insist that they need to do a CT scan to be able to continue so they go ahead and put some radiation in my head and charge me nearly $500 for it. Just to have the dentist finally come in glance at the scans for about 5 to 6 seconds and then say yeah we're going to have to order these drivers, it's going to be about $2000 for that, plus the cost of the appointments. That information did not at all require a CT scan to ascertain. When I emailed the office and let them know I was thoroughly unimpressed with this fact therefore would be leaving them a bad review, one of the girls from the office called me up to argue with me and tell me how necessary the scan was and how I was wrong. So, here we are. I am a man of my word. And here's that bad review I promised.

I used to be a dental assistant and had never seen a dentist refer out for crowns, so I decided to leave that practice. After some research, I found Dr Ledesma and am so glad that I did. I was on a very tight schedule because I was moving about 4 months later and was in braces that would not be removed till a month before my move date. Dr Ledesma and his staff worked to squeeze me into their busy schedule and he did an amazing job on my crowns! I had put off getting these crowns done for many many years because I was worried about them not turning out good. It is very difficult to get a good match when doing front crowns. That's why it is usually best to do the front 6 together, but that was not an option. Even with the obstacles that I threw at him, he was able to exceed my expectations. I would highly recommend Dr Ledesma to anyone in need of dental work!

I love that they were able to show me what they would be doing, from the 3D x-rays to the making of my crowns. I love they were concerned for my comfort and that I was aware and comfortable with what they were going to do, BEFORE they did anything. The final stage was sending me home with excellent verbal instructions (repeated to me at least 3 times so I would remember) of what to do for sore gums, types of food to eat and avoid for the next few days, and if I needed an adjustment to call right away. I can honestly say my gums around the the crowns were tender, but not sore and I am so very pleased with the end results! It made me a little sad to think, I'd only see these wonderful people only 2 times a year. For me that is a first. Love my forever dentist and staff!

One week later the tooth started hurting so I contacted Bright Now and the correction was not done yet and they couldn't see me for five more days.
