I've never described a dental cleaning as relaxing before, but that's exactly how my visit to Next…read moreDentistry felt. Candy, my dental hygienist, was absolutely amazing. She was kind, gentle, and took the time to make sure I was comfortable throughout the entire appointment. Instead of feeling like just another patient, I felt like someone she genuinely cared about. She was incredibly thorough, but everything she did was done with such a gentle touch that it honestly felt more like a spa treatment than a dental cleaning. I walked out with my teeth feeling incredibly clean and a smile on my face because the whole experience was so much better than I expected. Everyone at Next Dentistry was friendly and welcoming, which made the visit even better. If you've ever been nervous about going to the dentist, this is the place to go. And if you have the chance to see Candy, consider yourself lucky. She made what is usually my least favorite appointment one that I'm actually looking forward to next time.

Outstanding Care and Service…read more My family and I have been loyal patients of Diamond Dental of Salinas since 2014. Working in healthcare leadership, I truly appreciate the clinic's commitment to excellent protocols, patient education and exceptional customer service. The staff are always accommodating, professional, and make us feel at home every visit. Every procedure is explained thoroughly, all questions are addressed, and we're always given clear options for care. The quality of dental work and Dr. Rosales' years of expertise are what keep us coming back, over 10 years of consistently superb care speaks for itself. Highly recommended!

If you're searching for high quality dental care in the Salinas area, I highly recommend Diamond Dental!

DO NOT COME HERE. After what I personally witnessed while helping my girlfriend through her…read moretreatment, I would never trust AccuDental Salinas with someone I care about. My girlfriend paid approximately $4,000 IN FULL for wisdom tooth treatment that she STILL HAS NOT RECEIVED. I personally helped her schedule and confirm these appointments, drove/accompanied her through this process, and even called the office myself to verify appointment times. This was not a simple misunderstanding. Her first wisdom tooth surgery was scheduled for 6:00 AM. She showed up as instructed, waited, and the procedure was canceled approximately 30 minutes AFTER she arrived. She was eventually scheduled the other side of her mouth August 1 at 10:00 AM. She arrived around 9:50 AM and waited over 40 minutes -- NOT ONE EMPLOYEE SHOWED UP. No receptionist, assistant, or provider. Nobody. She was completely stood up for a SURGICAL PROCEDURE that had already been paid for. I want to emphasize that I PERSONALLY CALLED TO CONFIRM THIS APPOINTMENT. She also confirmed it herself and arranged approved time away from work specifically for the procedure. We did everything we could to make sure there was no confusion, yet she still arrived for surgery and found an empty office. The required CT scan was mishandled too. The Salinas office repeatedly told both of us that her appointment at the Gilroy location was July 31 at 9:00 AM. She arrived at 9:00 only to find out Gilroy didn't even open until 9:15 and Salinas had actually put her down for 12:00 PM. Thankfully, the Gilroy staff were professional enough to accommodate her anyway. And now comes the part that makes this whole experience even worse: AccuDental still has the approximately $4,000 she paid for a surgery they never performed. She has called and emailed requesting her money back, and nobody will respond or return her calls. I have watched her repeatedly try to get this resolved. At this point, seeing a medical office accept thousands of dollars, fail to provide the paid-for surgery, and then fail to communicate about returning the money is absolutely unacceptable. As her partner and someone who personally participated in confirming these appointments, I witnessed how badly this was handled. Watching her take time away from work and repeatedly show up as instructed only to be canceled on or literally stood up was ridiculous. DO NOT PAY THIS OFFICE IN FULL BEFORE RECEIVING YOUR SERVICE. Based on what I personally witnessed, I would strongly recommend going elsewhere, especially if you need a surgical procedure. We are now considering legal action just to recover money paid for a surgery that was never performed. I will gladly update this review if AccuDental finally responds and returns her money.

I had an extremely disappointing experience with Coastal Dental Care in Salinas. They referred me…read moreto a specialist for a root canal, and after the procedure, the specialist informed Coastal Dental that my molar needed a crown. That recommendation was apparently disregarded. Approximately one month later, the molar cracked, and I lost the tooth. Coastal Dental then claimed they knew nothing about the specialist's request for a crown. Regardless of where the communication failed, I am the one who suffered the permanent consequences. Based on my experience, there is a serious lack of communication, coordination, and proper follow-up at this office. I did not feel that I received personalized care. My impression was that the focus was more on money and numbers than on the patient. I cannot recommend Coastal Dental Care. Losing a tooth after treatment--when a specialist had recommended a crown--was unacceptable. I STRONGLY suggest looking elsewhere for dental care.

Incompetent office manager. Do not go here they commit billing fraud, they take advantage of people…read moreand will lie about everything I am still dealing with this office for a balance that shouldn't even be on file anymore for my parent. I even got the insurance involved due to filing a grievance and the case is "closed and resolved" yet when the insurance tried to call and justify the amount they were told the office was unable to provide the insurance information because they aren't the patient. Okay, but they're the insurance company? They're doing their job calling on behalf of the patient to correct the billing but western dental flat out refused to provide any information. Unfortunately parents don't have many other options for in network providers due to insurance otherwise we would have never gone here. I actually ended up finding an independent dentist who gave me a better estimate for the same services western dental was trying to rip us off over. Can you contact me?? I've already filed a grievance against that office so it's pointless to call. Your office manager basically told me to leave because the case is closed and didn't want to handle it anymore, she said there's nothing to do since it's my insurances decision however the grievance I filed was for $1500ish and the insurance DENIED $500ish and your office is charging $1600 and REFUSED to provide our insurance any additional information to justify that amount. That $1500ish was for a retainer impression which was cancelled the same day back in February! Your office said it was up to the discretion of the dentist to authorize the cancelled contract. The last conversation I had IN PERSON at your office last month in July I was told it was his COPAY for the deep cleaning even though we have EOBs stating otherwise which state both insurances covered the cleaning. Your office manager keeps saying the copay is for different things, first it was a retainer impression for my parents upper bridge, this last time in person she said it was his deep cleaning copay, those are two completely different things! And that's what I'm calling fraud because you can't say it's for one thing and then another especially when I'm recording all the documentation from every conversation I've been having with you guys. Our insurance called for an itemized statement which your billing department specifically told me to ask your office for and they refused to provide that to the insurance company like how is that legal? Your corporate office is just as useless, I've spoke to grievance, billing and customer service and no one wants to help or "has access" to anything. You guys are really making it difficult to get the account adjusted for SERVICES NOT RECEIVED! Your office didn't even provide a copy of the treatment plan and are refusing to cooperate with our insurance.

I'll be honest--walking into a new dental office made me a little nervous, but Darci (the assistant) was so warm and welcoming. She gave me a quick little tour and totally helped ease my nerves. It honestly felt like visiting a friend's office! Dr. Goldman was amazing--super knowledgeable and took the time to go over everything with me. She even complimented the onlays and veneers I had done previously, which made me feel like she really noticed the details. AJ, my hygienist, was also fantastic. He was so professional and made me feel completely at ease while taking my oral records. He asked thoughtful questions about my dental habits and even gave me a few helpful flossing tips I hadn't heard before. Plus, the office is beautiful and fully equipped with modern technology and little touches that remind me of my old dentist's place (which I loved). It's also super convenient with my work schedule--huge bonus! If you're looking for a dental office that's professional and personal, I highly recommend Salinas Valley Dental Care. They're officially my new favorite place for that fresh, clean teeth feeling.

I've had to go back in twice since having the work done to be checked out. The first time they corrected my bite and the dentist re- drilled to correct it. The whole time he was drilling the shavings were going to the back of my throat, and I was choking he said oh it's just teeth dust lol Also, most of the reception women are very friendly, but every time I speak to Natalie she is so rude and seems like she hates her job. Once I get this problem corrected, I will not be returning to Salinas valley Dental care, sadly. I feel like the staff is overwhelmed because they're taking them more patients than they can handle. Also, the office seems to be following apart their exam rooms have paint peeling off the walls and stained ceiling tiles.
