I have been going to Dr. Christenson for a few years. I really appreciate his "bedside" manner and…read morehis receptionist/assistant is lovely as well. I had been going to another dentist who told me that I would "always" require periodontic work, and I had accepted that prognosis. When that dentist left town, I had to find another one. Dr. Christenson is very close to where I live, so I thought "why not give him a try"... I've been hooked on him ever since I started going to him. When I started seeing him, I had to have gum surgery (performed by an oral surgeon). When I healed I went back to Dr. Christenson and he took his time to show me what I was doing wrong (not brushing long enough, etc...) and now, because of his expert advice, I no longer need periodontic work!!! And that's been about 2 years now.... I highly recommend Dr. Christenson.

I was one of his patients until he started pushing a particular [optional] procedure. I asked him…read morepoint blank how much, he dodged. I asked again point blank how much the procedure would be, he hedge again. Sigh. If I cannot trust him to give me the straight scoop on the price, how can I trust his judgment on what procedures to perform? Come to think of it, I came in with one issue (loose crown). He removed the crown and proceeded to do something else that he thought was required that I didn't -- soaking up all of my years dental insurance in the process. And I still had to have the crown work completed. Okay, I'm knocking another star off.

My experience with Barstow Friendly Smiles and Craig Robinson Dr. involved significant…read moremisrepresentation of insurance coverage and a lack of transparency throughout the entire process. I was told--both verbally and in writing--that my insurance would cover 60% and 40% of the total cost of a crown and mouth guard, and I was required to pay the full $3,596.25 upfront based on that representation. This was false. My insurance ultimately covered only $279.64. After receiving my Explanation of Benefits, I contacted both the dental office and my insurance. My insurer confirmed that the office had been clearly told on the date of service that coverage applied only to the allowed amount, not the total billed amount. This critical information was never disclosed to me. I agreed to treatment solely because I was assured I would be reimbursed a specific percentage of the full cost. Since then, the office has provided inconsistent explanations, denied statements that were later proven untrue, and has not contacted my insurance again despite repeatedly claiming they were "working on it." I also requested a copy of the document I signed showing the quoted coverage, and the office failed to provide it. I have repeatedly asked to speak with the dentist or owner regarding this issue, and each time I have been told I am not allowed to speak with anyone except Ruby at the front desk. This refusal to escalate concerns or allow communication with management is unacceptable. I believe I was induced into unnecessary and costly treatment based on inaccurate and misleading information. The lack of disclosure, refusal to correct the issue, and ongoing evasiveness demonstrate a serious disregard for patient rights. I cannot recommend this office to anyone seeking honest or transparent dental care.

I've been using a tube of Anbesol every couple days it's so bad. I couldn't get an appointment at a couple of recommended Oral Surgeons for weeks. I found a place in my Home Town just a couple miles away, Dr. Sanchez. They got us in the day after we called and He did the two extractions within 10 mins of the xrays. I felt zero pain while the shots went in and then not a bit during the entire procedure. Just the force and pushing and pulling of the extraction. We were in and out in under an hour. Unbelievable! I will be coming back for some needed Implants and other things! THANK YOU DR. SANCHEZ!!

I wish I came to Dr. Vincent years ago. There are people who cringe at going to the dentist, I am…read morethat person. Dr. Vincent and his staff welcomed me, starting with their sweet receptionist when I called to make an appointment for a toothache. The nurses are the friendliest, caring nurses who explained every detail from the procedures to financials. Dr. Vincent is a miracle worker, my pain was gone in less than five minutes, he clearly explained my situation going on now and in the coming future. The office was extremely clean, workers were happy and uplifting, which eased my tension for being at a dentist office. My other dentist's office was quiet, cold and scary to me. Could be why I did not schedule appointments unless I had a toothache. But, I will definitely be completing my annual checkups at Barstow Family Dental from here on out and you can guarantee I will get my husband in too. For anyone who feels the same, I highly recommend Dr. Vincent and his staff. They will not disappoint!

If you don't have perfect teeth dentist treats patient without much care or concern. Don't get the…read morebest work done. Definitely not careful or attention to details. I have medical issues that reflect in my teeth having problems yet he acts like I purposefully let my perfect teeth go to shite & he behaves as if I don't deserve his time even though I pay cash & it's cost me over $15,000 within a couple years. I'm left with 14 teeth all of which look horrible, out of alignment with no solutions discussed. Refuses to give a referral to a surgeon until he does all the work he wants to do sucking me dry of funds. While I wait for an opening to get work done. Who can drop $3,000 each visit? My cards are feeling the pressure & he has ruined my once pretty smile. I'm embarrassed & ashamed so his treatment of me has succeeded. The despise of dentists is earned. If they want people to like going to the dentist treat them better & put the concerns of the patient first not just the want of money. Overpriced doesn't even adequately describe dentists. The supplies can't cost much & the 10-15 minutes of work put in doesn't warrant $3000, certainly not unfairly judged all of it is earned by him. I'm need a new dentist please help send me a message of who is gentle, attentive, perfectionist to details with a desire to give the best smile possible, solutions not problems.
