If you're someone who struggles with dental anxiety like I do, this is the place to go. I left feeling cared for, respected, and genuinely grateful for such a positive experience.

Also, it is a quiet and small office. Ive been a patient of Dr. Solow for over 16 years and he has never disappointed me. He is very conscientious of trying the most conservative (tooth-sparing) approach first. You may have to return to his office if the first approach doesn't work, but he does try for the least invasive and cheapest option first. Also, once you are an established patient, he will fit you in if you are having a problem. I cannot recommend Dr. Solow enough

I was initially going to arrive about 15 minutes late, and the receptionist told me they could still see us at 11:20. We drove all the way from Petaluma (about 40 minutes), but due to traffic we arrived at 11:27. When we got there, we were told they could no longer see us. What was frustrating wasn't that they couldn't accommodate us--it was the lack of communication. If arriving at 11:27 was too late, I wish they had told me that when I called or contacted me while I was driving so I could have turned around or rescheduled instead of making the trip. It was disappointing to spend so much time driving with my daughter only to be turned away.

I ended up being charged an additional $300 to have a hole that was left behind re-stitched because it had become impossible to clean properly. This was in their email response when I pushed back. "The courtesy adjustment of $1,516.40 was applied to the 3D scan, 1 hour of IV sedation, and the debridement of the lower right area. This was basically all at no charge." All of which I paid for on my intital visit. What was most concerning was that when I shared this experience with other dentists and mentioned his name, none of them seemed surprised

Unfortunately, maybe it was only my experience but in my original wisdom tooth extraction consultation there I was told by a kind and descriptive dentist to ask for a in-depth image and to have everything explained to me and she explained what she could so I felt secure that the actual wisdom tooth extraction experience would be similar in descriptiveness. Unfortunately for me it wasn't. While I will say the ladies and man assisting and who were in the room were very kind and caring, offering me comfort, the oral surgeon lady who was going to remove my wisdom teeth was very blunt and belittling in my opinion. To explain, she simply told me all four of my teeth are getting removed and I asked why because I had previously been told my upper wisdom teeth were very high up (a lot of bone between my mouth and wisdom teeth) and I could wait to have them grow out further before removing them and she instead of answering my question just said the bone regrows because I'm young. When I asked how far up or low my top wisdom teeth are in my mouth, she said I don't understand your question. I started to cry and get anxious because she wasn't answering my questions, trembling because I was afraid, and she instead repeated herself in a belittling tone. (I had thought she would be descriptive and explain my worries to me calmly like in my original consultation). Ultimately, I asked for my dad which was when she explained herself slightly better. In the end, she said I never told her about only getting my bottom ones out (which I did in the beginning before I got scared and starting crying) so we ultimately left after she said she wouldn't proceed, yes, my father did get agitated but only because I was trembling and crying in fear and feeling unheard. It was as if they were rushing me and out. No beside manners, nobody introduced themselves the got straight to asking questions, pressure check, didn't ask before pulling my shirt up to put heart monitor pads on me, no regard for patient commodity, they just kept going despite seeing me crying. No comfort, just rushing. I am 19 and this was my first ever surgery, if she had even just spoken to me kinder or more professionally, I would have been fine but she just proceeded to insert my iv, and repeat herself without (I feel like) regards for my fear or feelings. Please do not fear! The other employees were kind and helpful, but she gave me a new fear that I didn't know I could get. Kindness and compassion goes a long way.
