Here are the TOP REASONS why I really, really love Dr. Tran: 1. She's super sweet, which is great, but she's incredibly professional as well. Combine these two thing together, and you have a fantastic dentist. These words coming from someone that generally hates dentists. 2. Having my teeth done here is EASY. My appointments are always on time. They always end within the timeframe they gave me (if not earlier). When I feel like someone respects my time, I am in love. 3. Communication is great. Whether it's talking about what's happening at your appointment, or it's over email. Expect to be in the know. 4. It's PAINLESS. I recently had a crown done and it was .. the easiest thing. Dr. Tran was incredibly sensitive to any pain I might be feeling but often times I was asking "Should this hurt? It doesn't". I had the easiest experience getting a crown and everything I expected to have happen (see #3) .. happened. Wow, right? 5. Follow up. After my crown Dr Tran checked in several times to make sure I was doing well. HOW NICE RIGHT? If this woman ain't touching your teeth, you're doing something wrong. I love this place. And I'll continue to try to schedule my SD flights every six months so I can get my teeth cleaned etc. THANKS DR TRAN for being awesome! PS you get to wear cool protective eyewear when you're having your teeth done. Best time to take a selfie.

They took the time to really help me understand my dental health and answered my questions. Their office clearly uses best practices and up to date technology. Dr. Ismail has the best bedside manners, she is incredibly compassionate, and gives great quality holistic care. I've never had a dentist review x-rays with me in such detail and I really appreciated it! I had anxiety from going to the dentist in the past but I'm actually happy to visit here again in the future. If you're looking for a dentist, definitely come see Dr. Ismail and her amazing crew!

I had XRays and CT scan from my endodontist just days prior which they refused to use, once I arrived at their office. I made them aware that I have a pre-existing medical condition that makes x-rays a medical concern. They manipulated me into getting the full "18" X-rays or waist a week long wait and 40 minute drive to their office. After the visit, they told me I had to sign and commit to doing 2 pages of extra work right then and there... including $7500 for Invisalign! I told them I needed to review the paperwork before I committed to anything extra. They were aware that I needed a rush job on my cap because my temporary and that was the reason why I was in their office. Two days later, (today) I called to confirm they had sent off the approval for my cap. Office manager Nova said they had not sent my cap off for approval, that I had to approve all of the xtra work at the same time! I said what?! There's no way. She said, that's insurance company policies. I said, that's bullshit... (There's no way I have to commit to doing all that work to get my cap!) Then "Nova" plays "victim" after I said it was "BS" that my insurance equires I have all the work done, in order to get my cap. When I refused to approve the other treatments and insisted that she only get approval for my cap, she said she will send my x-rays to me and I can find another office. I called my insurance and they stated to me, her assertion is not true. The office of Richard J. Gill, DDS pressured me into have extra work done and withheld an emergency treatment to blackmail and leverage me into accepting thousands of dollars including $7500 for Invisalign. I believe Richard J. Gill, DDS is running an insurance scam. Dentists like this, running a bullying blackmail scheme, increases costs for all Californians. I will be filing a complaint with The California Dental Board and speaking with an attorney about Breach of contract and medical malpractice.

After all that, the crown came off in less than two years. When I came in hoping they would simply stand behind their work, I was shocked that instead of addressing the problem, they tried to charge me a fee just to reattach the crown. After spending thousands of dollars at this office, they refused to offer even the smallest courtesy to fix a crown that clearly should have lasted much longer. This isn't about the money--it's about professionalism and accountability. A reputable dental office should stand behind their work and care about patient relationships. Unfortunately, that was not my experience here. I now have a different dentist and am relieved to no longer be a patient at this office. Based on how this was handled, I will be pursuing the matter further, including through legal channels if necessary. Patients deserve better care, transparency, and accountability than what I experienced here.
