We just moved to the area and my daughter was needing to go to her first dentist appointment…read more Looking at the reviews this place looks like they were doing amazing things. The building is really nice. Tvs under the exam seats and in the lobby. Toys and books for kids to read while they wait. Everything looked well kept and clean. The dental assistant that handled my child was beyond perfect with her. My daughter did very well in the environment and it was because of the calm and caring demeanor of the person who took her X-rays and did her cleaning. It came time to meet Dr. Tam. He was very direct, monotone, and didn't have the the child friendly demeanor I had expected and hoped for. He tried to connect with my child but it like he was going through the motions (or at least that was my perception which could be wrong). It could have been that they were busy and he just didn't feel like he had time to try but I left the interaction feeling indifferent. He was informative and got a plan in place for us to move forward with. Overall this place is worth checking out at the very least. I'm glad I checked it out and I loved how they give the kid a toy out of a dispenser when you leave. It's a very nice touch and now my kid will be excited to go back

Thank you for your response. My review reflects my family's personal experience at your office.

My review was intended to share my honest experience regarding cleanliness and patient care, and I stand by what I wrote. I hope the concerns raised are taken seriously so future families have a better experience. I find it concerning that the focus of your response is whether you could identify my family rather than addressing the concerns I raised.

I had the worst experience with this dentist. We were referred to this dentist from our primary…read moredentist to work on my son since he had to be put under anesthesia to have work done. The dentist never came in before surgery to give me a run down of what exactly was going to happen or to introduce himself. My son came out of surgery with his 2 front teeth gone and the dentist just said it was because they were infected after I asked why he had taken them out. I was extremely upset at the fact that no one let me know that his 2 front teeth would be extracted I was under the impression from what the nurses had told me that if anything only his back teeth would be extracted because that was the main reason my son was having work done. I absolutely DO NOT recommend and if anyone has any suggestions as to where to take my complaint further please let me know.

I started with Dr. Fee about a month ago and I am very happy with my decision of choosing her…read moredentistry. After getting new dental insurance I was on the hunt for a new dentist and took the time to do my research I came across a lot of positive reviews for this office so I decided to go for it. Best decision I made! This is a small office with a handful of staff members which is a plus as everyone gets to know you by name and remember you. Starting with Robin and the front desk, Dr. Fee herself and the back staff everyone is just easygoing and very professional. Wait time is no longer than 5-10 minutes and they get you in and out while doing a great job. I like the way staff takes time to explain procedures and the focus of the contact so that there is no misunderstanding on what is being done to you that day. I highly recommend this office!

I was looking for a specialist and couldn't find one in the Santa Maria/SLO area. When I called…read moreWestern Dental they said that they could refer me but they couldn't just give me the name unless I was seen by them first. So fine, I made an appt. Now my insurance has changed (for the better) and I have local options. I called Western Dental a few days ago and canceled my appt. Today I get an email reminder that my appt's coming up. I called them again and had to cancel a 2nd time. Considering all of the horrible reviews, I feel like I dodged a bullet but I'm also suspicious that this is SOP procedure: 1) fail to delete canceled appts; 2) bill for the missed appt; 3) send to collections. They weren't AT ALL surprised to hear that they had failed to cancel my appt. I could be wrong about this but I doubt it.

STAY AWAY. WD is the worst company I've ever interacted with. Manager needs to be fired,…read morereceptionist needs to be fired. Me and my insurance called these people with a dental emergency, they assured me over the phone my problem would be covered. I get to the app, and the staff deliberately denied the service and tried to hit me with a $3000 bill. I called another dentist he only charged me $85 for the same procedure. All their patients don't speak English, can't read or know their rights. They have a history of extracting the wrong tooth, & many horror stories. Idk how these people have not been reported to the State board and how they are still allowed to operate. Everyone needs to be fired. STAY AWAY.
