I cannot begin to tell you how insensitive they are there. I explained over and over I did not have…read moreto any money to pay for anything my insurance did dot cover. I printed out my insurance info stating they covered extractions with no co-pay and they said it would still be another $500. They wanted to take more x-rays and ignored me over and over when I said I only wanted a tooth that hurt pulled and had no money for anything else. I had over $1,000 coverage on my insurance which would have covered one extraction, but they refused to do it without an extra $500. It's humiliating to repeat a half a dozen times I did not have it. They are simply just set up to milk insurance companies and don't care at all for people with limited funds. Michelle treated me like I was stupid would not shut up and ended up hanging up on me. They insisted in taking more xrays saying the insurance would cover those. I told Michelle I couldn't pay for any treatment, so what's the point? They (the doctor) are clearly concerned only with milking the insurance companies. Meanwhile my tooth still hurts.

I went to Dr. Lee for 3 years after moving to Central Coast, and he never told me I needed work…read moreduring my 6 month cleanings, and then at the last appointment, he told me I needed a crown. The temporary broke off, and when I called the emergency number, I didn't get a call back. Later his assistant told me it was her cell phone, which doesn't explain why they didn't call me back after hours. I let it go, and I got my permanent crown. It broke after 3 months, and once again, no one returned my emergency after hours call (which I personally told them was an issue 3 months earlier, so they knew about it and chose not to fix the problem). I drove to their office and found a HANDWRITTEN note on the door changing the hours (the phonemail was not updated), so I called around and got another dentist to see me. That was when I found out much, more more. I had 6 cavities and needed 4 crowns! 2 of my teeth were badly cracked, and in 3 YEARS Dr. Lee said nothing about it. Not only that, the reason the tooth broke off is he neglected to build it up (which is what the new dentist had to do for me because the teeth are worn) and he didn't seal it properly, so it had decay that had to be removed before they could give me a new crown, so the new dentist couldn't even just put it back on. Apparently Dr. Lee didn't have the equipment/machines/technology necessary to know about these things OR he didn't inform me. Either way, it was gross negligence. The office manager offered to talk to them for me and suggested I request a refund, but I knew better. TWICE the staff told me their "credit card machine was broken" to get me to pay in cash, and when I told them you don't even need a machine; you can accept credit cards online -- they just said it was working! Two different times months apart, so obviously something was wrong there. I did talk to his assistant, and my husband told Dr. lee how upset I was. I asked the assistant to call the office manager at the other dentist, but neither one of them ever followed up. I just decided never to go back, so that's why I'm documenting this so others will know what to expect. If that's not enough, I also have gum disease! I didn't have this when I moved to Central Coast (I went to a great dentist back home), but the hygienist at the new place told me some dentists don't know much about gum disease, so I had to get what they call a "deep cleaning" that cost $1800, AND I now may have to go back every 3 months to get cleanings. They will give me another cleaning this week to decide whether or not I have to. This cost my $8000 in new charges and $1800 for the replacement crown from scratch with the decay clean and the build up of the tooth, so nearly $10k to fix the situation! (It's taken me 2.5 months to get all these work done, which has been highly inconvenient, time consuming, and COSTLY, painful and unnecessary if he had just told me when these issues were small before they became BIG problems). IF YOU CHOOSE THE WRONG DENTIST, THERE ARE HUGE CONSEQUENCES. Don't make the same mistake I did!

I've decided to find a new provider after my cleaning here. The hygienist was highly unprofessional…read moreand lacked good bed side manners. She would cough into her arm while cleaning my teeth and shared way too much personal information. I was forced to listen to her chatter for nearly an hour while also worrying whether I'd catch an illness. When I requested my patent file be sent to a different provider, I was met with resistance. Receptionist told me it would take 3 weeks (I literally had been a patient for 6 months- how long does it take to copy my 3 pg file?). Since that wasn't acceptable, I was told I had to pick up the file in person and pay $25. The hours of business are more limited than my work day and so this office made things extra difficult for me by refusing to send my file to another dentist in a timely fashion. I also felt the copying fee was not appropriate given the fact that my file was a skimpy couple of pages. It's unfortunate I had to leave because I feel that Dr. Lee is a good dentist. However, I feel he needs better trained staff. ---- My husband and I both have had positive experiences with Doctor Lee. Both of us had cleanings and minor cavity fillings done. Dr. Lee is friendly and down to earth. So much so that he didn't mind doing my cleaning when the hygienist wasn't available that day. The office interior is simple but I don't go to the dentist for interior decoration inspiration. This office is able to accommodate my busy schedule and I appreciate that. They even advertise that they can take walk ins. My only suggestion for improvement is for receptionist staff to follow through when they say they will do something. I've had to call time and time again with the same request.

We knew we were moving to Pismo Beach so I started "interviewing" dentists in the area. I tried Oaks Dental and luckily I got an appointment with Dr. Berry. I can honestly say in my almost 60 years of going to the dentist that he is by far the best I've been to. I had a complicated situation with an old dental implant that needed to be removed. Initially he referred this type of work to an orthodontist-since this is their specialty. After seeing 2 orthos, they were unsuccessful in removing my 30+ year implant. Dr Berry wouldn't accept defeat so he took it upon himself to get creative and he was successful in getting the implant out. The removal of this implant was imperative as I needed a bridge. I just want to add that not only is he at the top of his professional game, but he's acutely aware of my time (which other doctors lack). To top it off, he's always in a great mood, even if his work load is full, and he's fun to chat with. I HIGHLY recommend Dr Berry and his staff of Julie, Office Manager and Missy, front desk. This is a fantastic office and you will be happy to have your dental care looked after by them. Thank you again Dr Berry for all the work and patience you've had with my case!
