I took my baby girl here when she was only eight years old. She had only lost the top and bottom of…read moreher front teeth, when we decided to put braces on her. Her teeth were very crooked, some teeth were growing way up high, while others didn't have space to grow at all, because her mouth was not wide enough. Dr. Eisinger placed "spacers" in her mouth, which opened up her mouth further and allowed her teeth to grow in properly. Without the spacers, her in-scissor teeth did not have room to grow in. He did a fabulous job with her and her smile. Her jaw also sits more forward now. She looks like a different little girl with a perfect smile!

My son got his phase 1 braces because he had no room for his teeth to come in. It was getting crowded for his teeth but now he has a beautiful smile with straight teeth. My son never complained of pain other than a slight discomfort the days he had new adjustments. By the next day he was in no discomfort. My daughter got braces elsewhere before we found Dr. Eisinger, she complained about pain constantly and we had a bad experience at that office. We are glad we all had a great experience at John J Eisinger, D.D.S, INC.

Disappointed by Front Office Experience…read more The orthodontist and back staff at MBO Orthodontics in Salinas are truly great -- kind, professional, and attentive. Unfortunately, the front office experience, specifically with Alma (the receptionist), has been consistently unpleasant. On multiple occasions, she has been dismissive and rude when I've asked legitimate questions about costs and the "retainers for life" program. After paying over $2,000 for my son's treatment, I was told I needed to pay an additional $800, so naturally, I wanted clarification. Instead of a helpful explanation, I received an attitude as if I was bothering her or asking something unreasonable. Her tone, body language, and lack of patience made me feel disrespected and uncomfortable -- This is also not the first time. In the past she had been calling me "hun" or "honey" in a condescending way, which was inappropriate given her attitude when I simply had questions. Because of this, I ultimately chose not to move forward with any upgrade services this time. It's unfortunate because the clinical team is excellent, but experiences like this make a lasting impression. People remember how they're treated, especially at the start and end of care, and this interaction really overshadowed an otherwise great experience. I also get it, it's hard working in customer service but it's not right to treat anyone this way or even just a few people (like me and others once in a while). I really hope MBO Salinas calls me to validate my concerns and maybe answer questions I was left unanswered because I still don't understand the service I am still interested in and need.
