Because of this, the new replacement did not fit and she drilled on the new on in order to try and make it fit. I have had to have a new dentist fix 3 crowns that she did for me. She also was very offended when I asked her to stop sharing her personal life with me and just focus on my teeth. This was by far the most unprofessional dentist I have ever seen. I would not recommend her due to my experience. I hope this review helps others.

On January 24th, 2025 at 2:30 PM, I attended my appointment to Johnson family dentistry at 678…read moreAlamo Pintado in Solvang, California, Santa Barbara county. I had been referred to a dentist who was willing to do a root canal and recrown of one of my lower molars. I located them as they were the only ones within a 200 mile radius that took my insurance. My regular dentist, Dr Smith, at Feather Dentistry in San Luis Obispo, California, was not willing to do the work. But she had recommended me to someone who would, based on her assessment that I had a need for a new crown and a root canal. I arrived at the dental office and was attended to buy a Dr Johnson. He saw what was required, based on what he read from my referral dentist Dr Smith, and suggested we do the root canal and the crown that very day. I accepted. During the process of the root canal and the crown, Dr Johnson complained frequently that the entire process was quite difficult and seemed to have a problem getting at a point where he was satisfied with the work. I was very roughly treated, although not remarking so because I had no idea if this was normal or not. After quite a heavy physical struggle, he completed the process of both a root canal, and a crown. The final half an hour was done by his dental assistant, whose name I do not have. She seemed like about 35 or 40 years old, Latina, and finished whatever was necessary to complete the medical process. After paying around $1,000 out of pocket as well as whatever was required through my insurance, I left. Within a couple of days I felt that there was something very uncomfortable about the tooth. On April 1, 2025, I went to my regular dentist, D. Smith and talked to my hygienist. I said that I was feeling that there was something uncomfortable about the tooth. So consulting with Dr Smith, my regular dentist, they proceeded to do an x-ray and visual inspection of the tooth. One was noticed that an adjacent tooth had been chipped. So my dentist filled that chip tooth. I asked her if this could have been a result of the actions of Dr Johnson. She said probably not. But of course she was not sure. At the same time, or at some later date, she let me know that in fact the subject tooth the one requiring the root canal and crown had been cracked. She said it in the long run, it would need to be removed, and replaced with either a bridge or an implant. She also suggested that I have a more detailed optical image taken of the injury.

My family had been seeing Dr. Haws for general dentistry for many years. We stopped seeing him…read morewhen we realized he is all about money. He said my husband needed a heavy cleaning and they broke 3 of his teeth. My husband thought it was odd that the oral hygienist administered him antibiotics and sent him on his way. But less than a week later his face was so swollen. He went back to Haws only to have two more teeth break soon after. We had paid him cash for years and just recently got insurance that I made sure he took. Before I bought the policy. Interesting enough he no longer takes Anthem Blue Cross insurance. He knew his hygienist did this. Accidentally or not it has cost us about $10,000 to fix. No accountability from Dr. Haws at all. He is only about the dollar. We have moved on.
