This is Dr Tatla pruning roses outside his office in full view of a waiting room full of patients while we were waiting to see him!!
Karin T.

Double & Triple Books so you wait hours for your appt. Wouldn't let me sit in treatment room with my terrified child for a root canal due to "policy". He was outside pruning roses when our appt time came. No wonder her runs behind! He doesnt care about his patients. When I told him we would go somewhere else, he said "Good Luck" in a very sarcastically tone as we were leaving. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL! GOOD LUCK if you choose to go to him!

I cannot say enough good about Dr. Tatla and his staff. I had to have quite a bit of dental work including root canals and crowns. Doctor Tatla is an exception person and a great dental specialist. He is kind and funny and was always friendly with me. His work is first rate. His assistants were all friendly, hard working and efficient. The two main women who run the office could not be more competent and kind. I had to go back may times and every time they made me feel at home and at ease. I don't write many reviews. And my work is now done. But I had to post this because of the exceptional and even generous way I was treated. Will Otey

Address incorrect on yelp

I SHOULD HAVE TRUSTED THE TWO STAR RATING! Navtej Tatla is, by far, the most confrontational dentist I have ever met.  First visit was fine, long wait, but was seen within 30 minutes of my appointment. I had x-rays done with no trouble billing/communicating with Partnership for coverage confirmation. Two weeks later, when arriving for my scheduled cleaning at 8:30 AM, I am taken back and put in a room with a bib as if they were getting ready to perform the cleaning. I waited for the dentist who was talking to someone right behind my chair. I notice him approaching as he asked "what can I help you with?" I was very confused and said "I am here for a cleaning."; assuming he would have known by looking at my chart or even appointment description within their scheduling calendar.  He then asked how long it has been and I said "awhile". He left and came back saying, "we are having issues with the system because Partnership has partnered with Delta and we cannot access the system that allows us to see when your last cleaning was."  He told me I could pay out of pocket for the service, but I declined. He proceeded to get the receptionist who seated me, who came to me with a clipboard in hand (for who knows what?) and explained they cannot perform the cleaning until they verify it has been over one year since my last. I assured her it has been far longer than that, not willingly, and could confirm with my last dentist if that was sufficient. (Of Course, they were closed, so I couldn't verify with them).  I ended up leaving without the service, because:  1) Tatla was rude, and I refuse to let someone perform work on me of any type that does not have my best interest in mind.  & 2) As an office who handles billing internally, you should have taken the initiative to wait on hold with MediCal Dental of California and confirmed that I, indeed, have not had a recent cleaning, as I just did with the helpful woman who filed my grievance. If I could give zero stars, I would.

I've been going to Dr. Surh's office for maybe about 2 - 3 years now and he's helped me address all…read moremy dental issues, including squeezing me in for some emergency problems I had. I've NEVER had any any issue with anything or anyone at the office - all the staff is very kind and knowledgeable. Surh is former Navy, which I have a soft spot for as I have military family. In his waiting room, he has a photo of the ship he was assigned to, which I thought was a nice touch. He is obviously proud of his time in the military, which I appreciate greatly. The office is VERY clean, well kept, and there is water, coffee, tea, and other refreshments available in the wait room. Theres also a 2 TVs and a playstation, presumably for kids who might have to wait while parents or siblings are being seen. During the procedures, your room has 2 TVs mounted for distractions, including one overhead with subtitles always on (Lol, small details) for some additional distraction - normally tuned to HGTV, but the staff is always attentive and willing to change the channel if you prefer. Overall, I cannot recommend Dr. Surh enough. I've sent anyone who needs dental work to him and they all say the same - excellent service. Now the only downside: I have is that this man is the only DDS on site, so to see him, you may have to wait to see him. I promise you though, its worth the wait.

The below review is written unbiased and objective per the Yelp Guidelines…read more My original review ( below ) written in November 2017 was removed by Yelp as being too positive/suspicious (?). To Yelp, I am an actual Patient and am "not paid" or "compensated" in any form or manner. I am not a "BOT". I am not related to any of the practices employees. I gain nothing from the writing of this review other than the satisfaction of recognising excellence in service. I would hope that Yelp would read/review other postings of mine which are all similar in expressing my views when confronted with excellent service that deserves recognition. My Review......... After a year w/ my previous Dentist I found it was time to leave and look for a Dentist that really cares about the Patient, is upfront and straightforward with regard to charges and ongoing services. Changing providers is never easy, frustrating and can be costly coming in as a new patient. I made an initial move based on a referral but the distance was too great (65) miles and after two trips it was simply not conducive to my immediate and forward looking care and continued my search. I spent a great deal of time searching the net, reading reviews, checking WebMD, Vitals.com, etc. Upon reading the positive reviews from many, many patients I chose to give the office of Dr. Loeta Robles a try. This turned out to be one of my Best decisions. Dr. Robles and the entire staff are wonderful. Period...... Over a period of a year with my previous Dentist and roughly 10 visits I saw the Dentist twice. I had numerous problems with my partial appliances and spent hundreds upon hundreds of dollars for return visits for re-lines and fitment with an initial outlay of 5K and no resolve to my issues. My previous Dentist never came into the room to check the technicians work and each visit felt like I was imposing. Communication generally came through the office manager with regard to my care and every visit came with a dollar amount. From my initial contact with Dr. Robles and staff I felt like a patient and not a number. Paperwork was a breeze with everything accessible online which is another plus. Dr. Robles demeanor is one of caring, detail oriented and a perfectionist. Add to that a tremendous personality, she always has a positive word and shows genuine compassion. A rare combination. I rarely do reviews unless the experience has been well above expectations. It gives me pleasure to write this review. I have tried many and by far, Dr. Robles sets the bar....."Period"

Absolutely amazing dentist! They are really attentive and do a really thorough exam for new…read morepatients. Definitely way more than an average cleaning. Staff is also knowledgeable about other health problems and how it can impact your teeth. The office is super clean and nice and the receptionists are friendly and helpful.
