    I've been seeing Dr. Propes and the team at the Dental Spa for a few years now and have always had…read morea great experience. Recently, I had extensive crown work done to address older dental issues and repairs from past dentists. Dr. Propes put together a clear restoration plan focused on a long-term solution and not just a quick fix. The entire process was explained well, I felt comfortable the entire time, and the results exceeded my expectations. I've always been self-conscious about the condition of my teeth until now, thanks to the amazing work done by Dr. Propes and his staff. Everyone in the office is friendly, professional, and genuinely caring. If you're looking for a dentist who does excellent work and truly cares about their patients, I highly recommend Dr. Propes and the Dental Spa.

Dr. Propes has exceptional attention to detail and delivers beautiful cosmetic results. We are thrilled with the stunning outcome of the front crowns he recently completed for my husband. We are so grateful to have found Dr. Propes and to trust him with our care. His front office staff is knowledgeable and warm, and his assistants clearly take great pride in the quality of their work.

    I got fillings done in their office in December of 2022. Now, it is August of 2024. And, my front…read moreteeth, filled by Dr. Skinner, still hurt until NOW, even after RCTs! Over one year and a half! My new dentist told me that the pain will very likely persists for years and nothing can be done at this point. Dr. skinner told me that I am sensitive to fillings. He tried to explain that different teeth respond differently to dental work at different ages, because my another dental filling done many years ago never sensitive. But, I recently got fillings done in China and NONE of them are sensitive and painful. ALL the fillings done here were sensitive and painful! So, it is HIS fillings that are sensitive and painful but NOT I am sensitive to dental work! After his fillings, I have seen a couple dentists for pain and even flied 18 hours to the other side of the world to seek solutions. Jesus, nobody can stay calm with such annoying pain and sensitivity for over one year and a half, very likely two, three or more years. Well, I will definitely give them zero if can.

I seen one of the dentist here for a routine visit and ended up needing to get some dental work done. What was supposed to be a quick and easy fix. It ended up causing me extreme pain for weeks! Every few days I'd call the dentist and let them know my pain was not improving so they'd have me go in and they'd make adjustments and this happened about 4 times and the last time the dentist told me that I'd basically just have to wait it out. Ended up with pain and discomfort for 2 months.

    I received good care from the dentists here, but I found their business side predatory and…read moredishonest. I showed up for a routine cleaning to find that they no longer accepted Delta Insurance (they did not inform me of this change ahead of time). I chose to cancel my appointment and my wife's, which was scheduled soon after. The business manager met with me, and said that because they hoped to keep us as customers (and hoped to resume taking Delta by our next appointments), they would waive the charge for both my appointment and wife's if we did not cancel them. All went well until they were unable to resume taking Delta, and we had to change to another dentist (which provided superior care AND covered 100% of our dental expenses under Delta). Then, we suddenly began receiving bills for the appointments the business manager had waived. It seems that if they couldn't get us to pay cash for future appointments, rather than use our insurance (a cost of well over $1000 a year just for cleanings and exams), then they were going to do their best to squeeze what they could out of us, and were not going to let ethics or integrity get in the the way of a little money. I've talked to them on the phone, in person, and written to them. At first, they confirmed that the cost should have been waived. But they just keep sending bills for the amount they previously waived. I don't even know if that office manager still works there, and there's likely no one who now remembers a conversation from that long ago. It's a pain to deal with them constantly trying to collect less than $300 they are not owed. I think it's been two years of harassment from them. But they did me a favor too, and I hope it's one for you too if you're looking for a dentist in Merced. There are so many dishonest dentists preying on patients. I thought I'd found an honest one in El Portal. As stressful as this is, it likely saved me far more money in the long run by forcing me to leave them before getting taking advantage of by their unscrupulous business practices. Steer clear! I know it can be hard to find a new dentist in Merced, but don't settle for a practice you can't trust.

    My daughter has been a patient for well over 2 years, it was estimated that she wear braces for up…read moreto 2 years. No explanation was really given as to why it's taking longer, they just keep scheduling follow-ups. Makes me wonder if it's cause they want to just bill our insurance. If that really is the case I will be furious, don't make my poor daughter keep her braces on longer for more $. What I am most upset about is their appointment reminder system admittedly had a glitch and a reminder text which I am use to getting was not given for her appt. that was scheduled 2 months ago! If it is their system that failed then we should not be billed, period. I tried to fight it because it really isn't right but the office manager demands I pay because a fee was already waved for a previous missed appt. which might I add was due to an emergency. She was also trying to tell me what she does to remind herself of appts. which is ridiculous, telling me that's it's my responsibility to remember and they give reminder slips which should suffice but from 2 months ago, really?!!! I am getting greedy vibes for sure and can't wait until my daughter gets her braces off, I would never go back here for my other daughter or refer anyone to go here.

    I feel compelled to come forward due to a recent podcast I listened to about cutting babies tongue,…read morealso known as Frenectomy. My husband and I took our daughter just after she turned 1 in May of 2022. Almost instantly the Dr. suggested cutting my daughters tongue- giving multiple reasons of the benefits. We highly considered it, but wanted to do some research and get a second opinion. I am glad we did. The next Dr. suggested against it and I am so glad we went with our gut instincts. My daughter is now almost 3 and not having any speech issues like the original Dr. suggested she would have. My point is to not criticize the Dr. but to keep in mind that dentistry is a business and to always get a second opinion. If you haven't already, listen to the podcast from The Daily- "The Booming Business of Cutting Babies' Tongues" Episode dated: Feb. 24, 2024. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-booming-business-of-cutting-babies-tongues/id1200361736?i=1000645852980 In my opinion, always get a second opinion.
