I have been coming here for quite some time and the girls upfront have been super sweet and on it,…read morethey're accommodating also always calling and checking up to make sure that I schedule appointment for something that I need next. I've had quite a few things done at this dental office and I have to say that Dr.Niel was so amazing and so kind when taking out my tooth. Some of the other girls there were not as sweet, and I was having a bad day so having dr. Neil come in with such a bright and cheerful attitude, made a tremendous difference with my entire experience. also shout out to Jessica, (believe she's a dental assistant) was super kind and I was so glad that she was there during this whole process. So far have had two teeth removed there, so far so goof and no issues. Thank you guys for taking care of us and our teeth!! Much love, Samantha J

I arrived at the time of my appointment. They saw me 50 minutes later. The staff was very friendly…read more Before the doctor checked me, he asked if anything hurt. I said no, that I was there for a ckeaning. Then he said four of my crowns needed to be replaced (one of them is brand new). At that point I knew something wasn't right. Anyways, I said I needed to see how much it would cost. They left me sitting there for almost an hour until I told an assistant I needed to go. She said they'd email me the plan. I'm still waiting. This was almost a week ago. Very unprofessional.

I visited this location on 02/13 with Dr. Salamati. Unfortunately, my experience was one I will…read morenever forget. I brought my two year old in for a dental check up, before I made the appointment I let them know ahead of time that my son was not comfortable and may scream. The receptionist said that was no problem. During the appointment, my two year old was screaming, as expected. Dr. Salamati then turned to me and said "Is he autistic?". Surprised by this question, I replied "no" as he has not been diagnosed nor screened for this. Continuing the appointment, Dr. Salamati, kept making the comment to my son "If you keep screaming, you're not getting a toy". This was said a few times. After the exam, she told my son "Since you screamed the whole time, you're not getting a toy!". After explaining the findings of the exam, she then turned to my son and said "OK! Are you ready to pick out a toy?!" I do NOT feel this interaction or type of communication is acceptable. This made me very embarrassed and uncomfortable I went back and forth making this review, but I feel it is necessary as a provider should NEVER make parents or patients feel that way. I am deeply saddened by this experience

So conflicted about how many stars! Please read: The office…read morestaff was kind and nice. There were movies on for the kids which made waiting easier. I was happy having my first son treated there and would have stayed until my younger son had a raging toothache. Crying after he ate, the works, he was in a lot of pain. He had a lot of work to be done. The dentist recommended sedation (which is why I went to him with my first kid). The only problem was he didn't have anything for 2 months! His other office in San Bernardino (since he's only in town one day a week) was still 6 weeks out. After discussion, he would do the worst one that hurt him with gas sedation, but the rest would have to be under general anesthesia. I had to shop around and found that my son didn't need general, he did great with gas, and everything got done. Since I went to another dentist and didn't need general, it cost almost $1500 less out of my pocket. I would have never known how much more the charges are here without having to look somewhere else.

I called last week to reschedule our appointments and found out he left. My kids were so disappointed, as was I. He is so great with the kids, and makes them feel comfortable.

Half brushed my son with thick chunks of alleged vitamin before the dentist saw him. The dentist Khoi has good reviews due to him charging to speak to you as you can see in the bill. Half ass checked my son. Didn't address my concerns of him grinding his teeth.Didn't even try to clean up his mouth. So in less than 10 min he charges 619 for services bot rendered. My son didn't get intraoral pictures why is my insurance getting charged for it. Quick to refer me to put him under though. Im going to take this bill to a lawyer and write to the attorney general. So much insurance fraud in california im not going to be a Victim to money hungry dentist office. Stay Away From this place

We've had such a wonderful experience at Western Dental Orthodontics in Hemet today!…read more Dr. Farideh Knapp is absolutely amazing with children. She is incredibly informative, reassuring, communicative, and accommodating. She always takes the time to explain everything clearly, answer questions, and make both my son and me feel comfortable and confident throughout his treatment. I also want to give a special thank you to Christian Lopez. He does an excellent job giving my son clear, thorough directions during his appointments and always recognizes and encourages him when he's doing well. His patience, positivity, and ability to connect with kids make a huge difference and help my son feel successful and at ease. Lastly, I'd like to recognize Merlin for being so kind and welcoming. Her excellent customer service and friendly attitude help create such a positive environment from the moment we walk in. The entire team genuinely cares about their patients, and it shows.

I was in…read morehorrible..unbearable pain Sunday so bad that I was crying I tried everything I could to get some relief and nothing worked. Monday morning I called the office and they were able to see me immediately. The staff was wonderful, caring and so considerate of what I was going through. Dr. Jergensen was amazing, he told me what needed to be done and did it. I had a molar that was so infected that the tooth had to be pulled. Within minutes it was out before I even knew he started and then I felt relief. The office was busy yet they took the time to see me because of the pain I was in. That night the phone rang and it was Dr. Jergensen to check on me to see how I was doing. Wow!!..the dentist himself not an associate had called me, my own medical doctor doesn't even call when I have a problem. I am so impressed with Diamond Valley Dentist...Dr. Jergensen and his wonderful staff. I will tell everyone about them...they have a grateful customer for life. Susan Chavez

Second thing is if you leave a debit card on file he will charge you when ever he feels like it. When you complain he acts like he doesn't understand. He has done this to multiple people.

Unacceptable. I will be taking my child to a different dentist who will hopefully be more attentive and available.

I was looking for a dentist for my daughter. I will be honest with you... I am a large man and when…read moreI read that last review... Whoa!!!! it scared me. We all love our children and don't want them to scream or be in pain but I just felt maybe this person had a bad experience or some other reason for thier visceral disgust. So, I thought I should check it out for myself. Here is my objective, unbiased view. GREAT! Complete total opposite of this other person. The place is clean, brightly painted with nice kid colors. There is a playstation in the waiting room and even though it was hard to figure out, MY problem, we still did and it was fun. The doctor was very friendly and professional and knew what she was doing. I would say very competent. There staff was good as well. Friendly and over and over called my daughter by her name! I LIKE THAT. On the chair, my daughter had a TV on the ceiling that she laid down and watched. At first I thought she just had music to relax to with the headphones but then I looked up and there was a tv, that made me laugh. What an idea that is. My daughter was truly distracted. I held her hand because I AM the whimp and I sure don't want her to feel ANY pain... you know? What parent does but she had no problem, no issues. She is not TRAMATIZED by the dentist visit. As a matter of fact... she had a small cavity and it needs to be filled. I asked the doctor if she was going to fill it today and she said no, we don't like to do that because we like the first visit to be a positive one so she is not scared of the dentist. Cause YES, I am sure filling a cavity is not a pleasureable experience. How could it be! So the other review... Yes, I know... scary but what can you do... has to be done. She will get gas when she comes back the next time to relax her and I will hold her hand again... and yes the doctor will have to drill... that is what needs to be done BUT there is no pavlov experience here... she has good feelings and good thoughs and was a positive experience so she is not scared to come back. VERY SMART!!! My daughter actually smiled and was proud of herself. They had a treasure chest and a new toothbrush she got... instructions on how to brush, toothpaste and a toy. Come mon... I am a big softy but what more can you do to make it easier for a child. Ahhh, yes, general anithesia but is that always safe to do all the time? No, there are big risks... some don't wake up. I liked her a lot. Nice person and knowledgable... friendly as her staff and the only thing missing from her office is Willy Wonka and his assistant Dora!!!! I would say not to be affraid and scared off by what the other person wrote. I had to check it out for mself. I can always walk out and say... nevermind but each step of the way in the process... I was more and more relaxed. Trust me... after the drama review... Yikes! I was really freakin nervous. If you read mine... please go and find out for yourself if you go or take the time to read this book. I just felt it was such an unfair review that I had to write something myself to set the record straight. Truly and honestly. Dr. Lin is our new daughters dentist, for sure. A very nice person and a beautiful office with truly competent staff who uses her name and is friendly... what more could someone want??? Geez. Thats all you need!!!

I could not go back to the room due to my pregnancy and that fact tha nitrous oxide gas was being used. Nitrous help calm nerves. I realized after the 10 min. this was my daughter screaming like this, so I ran back to the room and opened the door n dr lin had my daughters head between her knees while an assistant was holding my daughters hands down. I asked why she is in so much pain n she told me my daughter was just nervous, I asked to to stop the root canal, because something was wrong. I had never heard my daughter scream so loudly before so I knew the degree of pain she was in. I removed her from the dentist chair and took her out the dental office. When we got home she was shakning bad from her nerves feeling the whole procedure, of 15 to 20 minutes...not one time did she stop to ask my daughter if she was ok during her screaming and she was given only one anesthetic shot that did not work for my daughter at all, so her primary dr said usually when the 1st one doesnt work they can offer a second one in hopes to actually numb the area, come to find out my daughter felt the whole procedure of the drill n all. she shook for hours after because of her nerve endings and the pain recpetors in her mouth, she was never offered any other form of pain meds only 1 shot which did not numb her at all n even with a child screaming like my girl was she never gave her any other relief but to hold her down and continue drilling....I want everyone to be careful when letting your child go back there and ask for numbing meds like gas...that works like a charm. Shots do not always take effect the first time...My daughter is severly traumatized and never wants to see a dentist ever again,....n as a mom I feel horrible like I wasnt there to protect her from being hurt n she couldnt speak up to say im hurting becasue she was held down and never given the chance...so please be aware n careful....I wish she was offered another shot instead of continuing to drill her root with no pain meds...how horrible this must feel...as an adult I know this pain is horrible n my daughter is very tough as she can handle her immunization shots with no crying...and her original dentist she had 2 visits and 4 cavity filling and never cryed once...over pain..or his drilling of her fillings...IF YOU WALK INTO A ROOM AS YOUR CHILD IS SCREAMING BOOLY MURDER...YOU MIGHT WANT TO WONDER IF SHES NUMBED AT ALL..MORE THAN LIKELY IT IS NOT BECAUSE HE OR SHE IS NERVOUS...IT PROBABLY BECAUSE THEY R IN A WHOLE LOTTA PAIN...2010 November
