Design Dental - Easy to find in Whitelock. - Endodontists Near Me - Elk Grove, California

A patient by the name of "Lex O" who posted a review 8 years ago was spot on with their assessment. These are what appear to be "money hungry" professionals. I have perfectly straight teeth as I'm near the end of my Invisalign treatment with an orthodontist not affiliated with this practice. But after a routine cleaning and x rays at Design Dental, I was told I had cavities in practically every tooth and was also advised to STOP my Invisalign treatment!!! What??? Yes. Seriously. Apparently Dr Simone Patrick wanted to perform expensive cosmetic work instead! I actually left the office feeling depressed, and very insecure about my smile. 100% deflated-- because usually I'm complimented. I also immediately called my orthodontist in Elk Grove who was flabbergasted. He returned my call during off hours as I was so distressed. After consulting with a reputable dentist who cares about people -- guess what? I had no cavities!!! I actually have a very nice, straight, healthy white smile. This practice is totally after money scamming patients one by one. Save your money and dignity by avoiding Design Dental at all costs. Find another dentist that accepts your insurance. One that's humble and kind. Quite frankly I'm at a loss for words. I can't imagine how much unnecessary dental work has been performed at this office. Just terrible. read more

They are always quick to bring you inside and very friendly. I had a couple fillings and they were done about an hour.

Dr. Simone Patrick and her team are awesome! My mother quit looking for another dentist after finding her exceptional service. Dr. Patrick is thorough, very knowledgeable with her specialty, and professional. She and Sherene show much compassion, patience, understanding, caring, and assistance. We love Dr. Patrick and Sherene! Try Design Dental. You'll love it! read more

I don't want to say much, but let's just say I decided to switch dentists. Thanks for trying to be kind for the first time visit.

Prime Dental Dr.Patrick's other location is so dysfunctional. Nothing against the doctors they're great. There is a front desk lady African American, each time she schedules my next appointment she doesn't put me on their computer system schedule and each time I come in for my appointment she says she doesn't see me on the schedule and goes and asks the doctor's if they can squeeze me in. Those cards they hand out for the next appointment, I don't see a purpose for keeping those if they're supposedly adding me on their schedule. I strongly believe she has some memory issues because yesterday I came in with my husband for his appointment (which again she didn't have in the system) and I talked to her about sending in an appeal for my crowns which i originally spoke to her about 2 weeks ago she said she will have the doctor send it in yesterday again cause it wasn't sent out and today when I asked if she had the doctor send it in she had ABSOLUTELY no clue what I was talking about. I had to get a babysitter to make my appointment today and she turned me around saying we can't see you today we will have to reschedule. I am a very patient person but this is just unacceptable, this happens each time with my appointments and it's ALWAYS when this African American lady makes my next appointment. When the Muslim girl makes it I never have ANY issues. read more

Just had my initial appointment today. The area is great, lots of parking. The wait time was not long. The Dentist & the rest of the staff are awesome, kind & accommodating. The staff & dentist was very informative with every procedure being done, so I was not questioning every single step all the way. I have always been hesitant to go to the dentist, but this was a fun experience. -F.B. read more

Sherin at the front desk is pretty sweet and the new Chinese lady is funny. Overall experience is 3 out 5. The first time, I came here they couldn't do much work because I was pregnant. The second time, the machines were not working. So I have to reschedule the appointment. read more

Very nice staff including the dentist, very resourceful, first timer and will definitely be coming back!!

I have been a patient here since 2014. The dentist does great work, and so do the assistants. I feel more comfortable here than I have at any office I visited prior! The new flooring makes the place feel very high end too, but their pricing is still VERY affordable compared to surrounding offices. I would refer any of my friends or family to Design Dental and feel confident that they are in the best of hands! read more

I've been going to Design Dental for the last five years for a reason. Friendly staff, clean wait area and soft music playing in the background; my visits to Dr. Patrick never left me feeling unsatisfied. She knew what she was doing with my teeth and she knew what I was not doing for my teeth and she did her job really well. I would say she's almost a perfectionist with my teeth. I'm two years in with braces and after an extraction and jaw placement with my braces I'd say she did everything she could to help me get a better smile. Thanks again, Shereen and Dr. Patrick! You don't hear people say this often but I look forward to our monthly visits! See you next week! read more

Simone has been my primary dentist for over 4 years. I am very satisfied with the results of my braces and also the crown work she has done! I highly recommend Simone! read more

This is absolutely the WORST dental office my wife and I have ever been to. On my initial visit, everything started out fine until I met the dentist. At first he's amazed by how straight my teeth are and says "you must have had braces when you were younger." I tell him no my teeth have always been like this. He does a quick exam and then out of no where says "you need braces." I was shocked because I was like wait you just said you liked how straight my teeth were and then he starts pressuring me to get braces and mentions he does braces in house and I should schedule an appointment as soon as possible. I look at him like are you serious and once I'm done I tell myself nope never going back there again. He was the first dentist ever to say I needed braces. All of my previous dentist have all said I don't need braces. Next my wife checks goes on her scheduled appointment day and she tells me that the receptionist was rude and the lady dentist was condescending. After her initial check up they say she needs so many things done that day like a deep cleaning and fillings replaced. They kept pressuring and rushing her and since when is a deep cleaning only 20 minutes long? She was so upset with how everything went down. They ended up rescheduling her filling appointment. I call them to cancel and the receptionist greets with an attitude and I tell her I'm cancelling an appointment. She asks if I plan to reschedule and I say no and she hangs up on me. Like I said in the beginning this is the WORST DENTAL OFFICE EVER! Money hungry unprofessional people taking advantage of people. Their receptionist is a joke. I'm surprised they have lasted this long. Stay away at all costs. read more

Sherin at the front desk is very good Very efficient customer service Nice girl, she was nice and gentle with my mouth X-ray Thank you for an excellent service read more

Dr. Patrick did my braces 3 long years, I'm so happy how straight my teeth are I no longer have a gap and bucked teeth. Thank you again I can smile again in my pictures. read more

If you're an older patient, think twice about this place and Dr. Patrick. Besides the fact that she is difficult to understand, she made me jump through so many hoops that she wouldn't fix my broken jagged tooth that was tearing up my tongue. Had to give her phone numbers of doctors who had previously treated me for cancer over 5 years ago. She never called me back to schedule any further appointments but did take $10 for a co-pay after doing nothing. Called and left message but no call back. If at all possible, research the area for other dentists besides this place. I've subsequently gone to another local dentist! read more

Recently needed an extraction. Called TONS of Dentists offices to get prices and procedures because I was paying cash. Design Dental had the absolute lowest prices. They have a very clean office with all new equipment and machines. Was able to get an appointment immediately and had the tooth removed just after consultation. Friendly staff and in a quiet shopping center. My Dentist was Sergio read more

I got my braces here with Dr. Patrick two years ago. And the results after two years were beyond amazing. I absolutely love my teeth. Dr. Patrick is an amazing dentist and a person. She works very well with all her patients. The staff is professional, kind and friendly. I would highly recommend Design Dental to all my family and friends. Thank you Dr. Patrick for an amazing smile you gave me. I can finally be not so conscious about my smile. Great staff and even better service! read more

I was very afraid to visit the dentist after a bad experience I had at another dental office, I found Dr Sergio Pereria through delta dental web site and gave him a try and I can honestly say I need to look no further for a Dental provider - He was professinal, very skilled and knowlefgable and kept me informed of what he was working on. The office staff were attentive and on time, and the best part of all was they did not try to gouge me with extra services I didnt need just to make a buck like some other locations do, they treated me great and didnt rip me off, I will be staying with this dentist for the long term and would recommend them to others in a heartbeat !! Great Job Design Dental & Dr Sergio :) sincerely - The Gilmore Family read more

The first visit, anxious, and being a chatter-box because of it, I was seated in the chair, and treated to, over the speakers, 'I wanna' be a millionaire so f**k**g bad'. Had never heard of Bruno Mars or that song, ( I am almost 70) but after posting on FB, learned there was a milder version, which was NOT played. My experience with the office and the dentist never improved. Of course I garnered that the dentist wanted to get rich?? What was one supposed to think? I am now experiencing side effects from poor orthodontics and will have to pay dearly to correct what I knew was not right, the last day I left the office. At no time was relief offered for my anxiety, and I only learned that it was available when the hygienist told me her husband's extraction was alleviated with a valium. read more

No B.S. or telling you how you could have done better with regards to cleaning or flossing your teeth. They just you fixed up.

The worst dental office I have ever been to. Too minimal front staff - the one older lady in front is completely lackluster, doesent know how to do her job, on personal phone calls during business hours, rarely return phone calls as promised, etc. Dr. Patrick is awful. She's hard to understand, she has no professionalism, and is NOT a good dentist. She doesent know what she is doing, she is rude with no bedside manner. I questioned Dr. Patrick's expertise right out the gate. I feel like she is off the mark on diagnosing what is going on and speaks negatively about other dental professionals and makes comments like they don't know what their doing. Very tacky. She also has no empathy for the folks who cannot afford all the outrageous dental work she suggests. Sorry we all can't afford thousands of dollars of dental work lady. I had to argue with her about this. I didn't even think all she suggested was even warranted or needed. I don't see how this place stays open to be honest. Hours are odd and inconvenient. Dr. Patrick works like 2-days a week. No evening hours, no weekends. Awful. I'm just convinced this lady got her dental degree from a Cracker Jack box. I will never come here again. read more

I have been to this office 2x now and just had the worst experience. The dentist was rude, pushy, and disrespectful. My daughter had to get an extraction and they didn't make sure she was completely numb before they pulled her tooth. She was crying after her appointment. read more

The current dentist I go and see is Dr. Perreira (Sergio), however two weeks ago I went in on an emergency with one of my family members and I got to see Dr. Patrick. I learned that she and Dr. Perreira are brother and sister and that it is a family business. Ever since I saw how Dr. Patrick works, I decided to make her my primary dentist. She is professional, knowledgeable and she explains everything about each procedure. This place is great because they reward you if you bring in new patients with $50 credit. The dental assistants are very nice and make me feel comfortable. The receptionist on the other hand is some thing else. She had a terrible attitude the last time I was here and she kept trying to pressure us to go with an expensive procedure. I dislike that she goes on the phone with insurance companies and places them on speakerphone. It is important to keep information confidential, and that is something the receptionist doesn't seem to understand. It's unfortunate that this place gets bad reviews because of the receptionist. To anyone reading this review, I highly recommend Dr. Patrick. Just be warned that the receptionist may not be fun to deal with. read more

I had a wonderful experience here at Design Dental, despite the fact that I always dislike dental visits. The receptionists are real nice here on all my visits. My last dentist I gone to, I had to wait 45 minutes each appointment sitting in the chair waiting for someone to come see me (I still don't understand why it takes so long when I'm on time with my appointments?). Anyway, not here they are good with being on time and always coming to check on me. Also I'm always afraid of needle, but Dr. Patrick made me feel comfortable that I barely felt any pain with the shot. I'm giving a four stars because of their hours. Dr. Patrick is only there Tuesday and Thursday so it's hard to have an appointment outside of those two dates. read more

Absolutely love this dental office. Every time I come in, I am treated like I'm the only patient here, and they can get pretty busy. The staff is professional and kind. Dr. Pereira totally rocks. Thanks Design Dental for meeting all my oral hygiene needs! read more

I have been with Design dental since 2011. Dr, Patrick is super friendly and nice person. The staff is helpful and they have a very clean office with all new equipment and machines. The office staff were attentive and always on time. She really takes the time to educate me and help me understand all my options so I can make my own decision on how I want to move forward comfortably. I was encouraged to take care of my teeth without being made to feel ashamed of my earlier dental habits. Dr. Patrick gave me the confidence to smile. If you need a dentist definitely go here! read more
