The reviews on Google Maps and Yelp, especially people who've been coming here 15-20 years really stood out to me, and after my first visit I totally get it. Got in quickly through the cancellation list which I was thankful for, specifically for a cleaning and x-rays. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. The person taking my x-rays made it easy, and my hygienist was gentle and talked me through everything as she went, which I really appreciated. Dr. Chang kept it conservative and didn't push any unnecessary work. Exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommend!

I contacted Dr. Wernick's office close to midnight and left a detailed message explaining the situation. About seven hours later, I received a text asking if I could come in at 8:30 AM for the repair. I went in and was out in less than 20 minutes with my smile fully restored. It's that kind of dedication to patients, combined with genuine skill, that will hopefully keep this office as my dentist of choice for many years to come. The staff are all friendly and professional, and Dr. Wernick himself is just a genuinely good person. Thank you, Doc, for rearranging your schedule and taking care of my situation so quickly. It's appreciated more than I can say.

That immediately didn't sit right. When my wife asked simple, reasonable questions, she felt dismissed and was even asked if she needed a translator, despite speaking English the entire time. That came across as disrespectful and made it clear her concerns weren't being taken seriously. We got a second opinion, and another dentist told us that level of treatment is highly unusual for a child this age. That was a huge red flag. Some staff were kind, but the long wait and overall experience were disappointing. Parents -- trust your instincts, ask questions, and don't hesitate to get a second opinion when something feels off.

I will never forget Brian Mudd…read more So, this is like 13 years late... but years ago, Dr Mudd extracted 6 teeth from me. He removed my wisdom teeth, and two broken molars. I was supposed to get bone grafts to later get implants. I'm super scared of dentists, so they put me under - which was awesome! Unfortunately, the beginning of the nightmare was waking up in the middle of surgery... anyway, once I woke up in recovery, Dr Mudd came in and said that I had the hardest jaw he's ever worked with and told me that they didn't do the grafts because of some complications. Okay, I guess... A week went by and I was in a TON of pain... I called the office and to see if it was normal to still be bleeding and also because my tongue, mouth, lips, were all numb! They said it was normal and keep up care; so I did. Another week or so went by, bleeding stopped and as I was eating lunch, I felt a scratch in my throat. When I coughed, I coughed up a broken piece of DENTAL BURR (later confirmed by a different dentist) that had been lodged in my throat! It looked like a tiny conical drill bit. At this point, I went to another surgeon for a second opinion. They conducted 360° x rays, and showed me that Dr Mudd actually broke my jaw and that the interior side of my mandible had sheered in two and was pinching my nerve... they also showed me that there were dozens of bone shards that were about to push their way through my gums (which they did)! Over the course of the next month, my new surgeon helped me extract the bone fragments and kept an eye on my healing... In the meantime, I was trying to build a case for malpractice, but every lawyer I spoke to told me that Dr Mudd is often used as an expert witness and they would only take my case if I could pay out of pocket because I would likely lose... one lawyer advised me to not speak to the Dr because he said they would likely build a case against me and I would "definitely lose"... as a broke 20-something, I kept on trying to find help, and eventually gave up because I didn't have the money that they told me it would cost to do anything... the one lawyer that actually said he could win was weirdly the lawyer from the band "Rancid"; he's a friend of a friend and said it was "negligence per se", BUT he was too busy and couldn't take my case... after that I was utterly defeated. Like I said, it's been about a decade since then and most of my pain has resolved, but my nerve is still damaged and my lip from about center to the right corner of my mouth is actually HYPER sensitive and always feels like it's asleep. I'm really only writing this in hopes that he sees it, and also because I just had an awesome dental experience and it reminded me of how horrible my last one was... Moral of the story...? I don't know... don't be a broke kid? Research your surgeon?

I am 77 years old and have had major dental problems since childhood from growing up in Mexico. From a young age, ALL my teeth became heavily stained and significantly unaligned. I have seen many dentist in my life with hopes of some improvement. As I have aged, my concern has also included the declining health of my teeth. I was experiencing great discomfort and had fear I would be loosing my teeth. Then I met Dr. Tori McRae. She confirmed what I always knew, my teeth were in very poor condition, not only their appearance but their health. It was clear my teeth were deteriorating. Rather than turn me away, Dr. McRae immediately accepted the challenge and created Several treatment options for me to consider, explaining each one in great detail. Ultimately, i entrusted Dr. McRae. Over multiple appointments, Dr. McRae worked on my teeth repairing the damage and improving their look. I was nervous and unsure of what results to expect. The results are literally a life changing. She not only repaired the damage, she made my teeth beautiful! The experience has been surreal and exceeding all expectations. Dr. McRae and her staff have been amazing, I really can't express how grateful I am to them !! I still can't believe my before and after, and truthfully , the photos don't do the results justice.
