Our expectations for orthodontic care have been far exceeded by the staff and Dr. Proctor. The staff has been friendly and accommodating to our crazy schedules, and Dr. Proctor shows great attention to detail, which I believe is really important in regard to your smile! He's also very honest and I haven't felt like I was being upsold or duped on anything (which I have experienced before in dental offices). We feel our financial investment in our children's orthodontic care has been invaluable because of the excellence of care that Foothill Ortho has provided.

I had high hopes for this dental office, as I need quite a bit of dental work and wanted to ensure…read moreI was making an informed decision regarding my treatment, the materials used, and the financial aspect of the procedures. Unfortunately, my experience with the office receptionist, Jay, was incredibly disappointing and unprofessional. When I called, Jay was initially very informative, answering all my questions regarding insurance, the types of fillings used, and how payments would be handled--an important factor for me since the cost of my treatment would use up my entire insurance allowance for the year. After our conversation, I felt reassured enough to move forward with scheduling an appointment. However, I was informed that the office requires a 25% deposit to schedule, with payment in full required on the day of the procedure. Since the total cost was around $2,000, I asked if they would be willing to offer a payment plan for the remaining balance after the deposit. Jay immediately said no, which I understood, and I politely explained that I would need to find an office that could accommodate a payment plan. At this point, Jay snickered and told me she felt like I had just wasted her time. Shocked by her response, I asked if she thought it was unreasonable for a patient to inquire about a surgical procedure and insurance coverage before committing. Instead of addressing my concern professionally, she raised her voice and told me it was, in fact, a waste of time--adding that there was already a note in my file stating I was "going somewhere else." The only reason I had requested my X-rays was to obtain an additional quote, which is a completely reasonable and responsible step for a patient. Jay continued to talk over me as I attempted to clarify, forcing me to confirm her name and let her know that her behavior was incredibly unprofessional. If this is the treatment a potential patient receives from the front desk, it raises serious concerns about the professionalism and patient care within the rest of the office. Is this type of behavior accepted or even fostered by the practice? It was a huge red flag and left me with zero confidence in trusting this office with my dental care. Patients deserve to be treated with respect, especially when making important healthcare decisions. I would strongly advise anyone considering this office to be cautious and ensure they feel comfortable with the level of professionalism before proceeding.

First of all I would like to say that the women in this office are amazing and I have had no issues…read moreat all with them! I feel bad leaving a bad review simply because the girls are awesome and very helpful. Dr. Rahimi on the other hand...not great. I had a cavity in January that I went to him for. He ended up drilling my tooth down to a nub for a cavity and charged me for a crown. All very expensive even with insurance. Then the next week, they did a deep cleaning of my gums because I was starting to show signs of gum disease. I also pointed out another obvious cavity to Dr. Rahimi that he told me we wouldn't worry about it yet. I had gotten my crown the week before my deep cleaning and the day of, I flossed and my crown shifted and then when I bit down, it fell into place. After that day, my crown has never fit over my whole tooth. I thought maybe it was from the deep cleaning since my gums stayed irritated for a month or two. Every single thing I eat gets stuck in the pit caused by my crown not covering my whole tooth. Then I got very busy with life so just waited for my next cleaning appointment. I went in 6 months later for my for cleaning but Dr. Ike wasn't there so I came in again the next week for him to look at my crown. Somehow, within 6 months-my teeth went to all taken care of, all cavities gone, mild beginning of gum disease cleaned like crazy-to now I have a new cavity that he blamed on me using a water pick-which they specifically suggested for me to use-and not flossing. I have been flossing and using a water pick this whole time but somehow I have new cavities and gum disease now-which he blamed on me not taking care of my teeth-which I absolutely have been doing. He also told me that all I can do about that gap is floss after every meal and there was nothing he could do. Told me not to use my water pick even though that is the only thing that clears all of the nasty food from the PIT between my crown and nub of a tooth. Basically, I feel like Dr Ike blamed me for his mistake and refused to work with me. Absolutely terrible service. I told him about a genetic issue I have that actually causes more tooth issues than normal and can cause more tooth decay, and he started to explain to me that teeth don't move and we don't grow a third pair of teeth-uhm yea. Very obvious this is true but had absolutely nothing to do with what I told him and I never once said I grew a third pair of teeth...seriously wtf. I totally assumed I would go in there and he would realize something didn't fit right and do his best to fix it-but instead he blamed me for the crown not fitting right and just told me to stop using the only thing that can get the junk out of my pit (water pick) and floss every day. Most unhelpful visit from a dentist I have ever had. I am sad to say I will never ever go here again because I truly love all of the receptionists and dental assistants and hygienists!! But if you don't want to get totally screwed spending money on things that should solve a problem but do not solve anything-do not go here. I do not have a lot of money at all. The visits in February/March really set me back. Now I feel like I have to go to another dentist and spend all that money again to fix something that he should absolutely fix. I should have listened to the comments on here saying the same things and now I'm screwed and would be much better off with no crown at all. At least without a crown, food wouldn't constantly be getting stuck against what little is left of my tooth, almost at guaranteeing that I will need a root canal on that tooth. And he didn't care at all.

The dentists and staff truly care about you -- such an amazing group of people. Dr. Tuttle and both Dr. Davidsons are incredible at what they do, always up to date on the latest in dentistry, super talented, and also just genuinely nice humans. Our hygienist, Shannon, is AMAZING and so sweet, and I have no doubt all of the hygienists there are top-notch.

We've had a decent experience with dental care at the EDH Make-a-Smile location. We were then…read morereferred for an orthodontist consult at the Placerville location. When we arrived only scans were taken and no consult actually took place. We then waited over a week for a call to be scheduled for the actual consult, then were rescheduled and rescheduled again, then made to go to EDH for an x-ray that should have been done already, then back to Placerville for the orthodontist. After all the run around, once we were at the Placerville location we were appalled at the state of the place. The bathroom was filthy, with a layer of grime on everything, and smelled like stale pee. The waiting room floor looks like it hasn't been cleaned, maybe ever... there were literal bugs crawling on the floor. The few old sad toys in the waiting room are also dirty. Ultimately we decided to leave and will be taking our referral and X-ray to another office. We let the staff know why we were leaving, they were hardly apologetic. I called "solution management" to make a complaint, they didn't seem to care either.
