Compared to other dental offices, Twin Creeks never felt like a ripoff, they truly care about helping their patients. Now, about 4 years later, I'm still a patient here. Even though I've since moved to Sacramento, I still make the long drive to San Ramon just to see Dr. Daniel. He's always extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and gentle when working on my teeth. I've never experienced any pain while he's working, he makes sure I'm comfortable and checks in multiple times during treatment. The office is modern, clean and the staff is always very friendly and helpful. I can't recommend Dr. Daniel enough, he has saved my teeth multiple times, he finds time for his patients, and always goes the extra mile to ensure you leave happy. Very grateful that I found this place!

There are soo many qualities I have appreciated in the excellent care I have received by Dr Anderson. 1. I have experienced Dr Anderson genuine caring about all my dental procedures and how I personally feel which gives me great comfort. 2. He has always shown great professionalism and high integrity. 3. He is soo passionate about keeping up with the most current techniques and using the best state of the art materials to provide the most optimal result for his patients. 4. He is very gentle and he also takes the time to really explain each procedure so as a patient, my anxiety level drops. 5. Leticia, his assistant is beyond amazing!! First, she is very compassionate and attentive to the patients to make them feel the most at ease. She has a very high aptitude of technical dental knowledge and works extremely well with Dr Anderson. Patty, his office manager is also fantastic!! She is professional and very efficient. Very organized and a great communicator. She is always pleasant and both her and Leticia have been with Dr Anderson I believe from the start of his practice in San Ramon. Together they make a fanominal team. I highly recommend Dr Sean Anderson.

Canyon Lakes Dental is spotless--like, "you could eat off the floor" clean (though I didn't test that, promise). Dr. Shilpi Chovatia is hands-down the gentlest and most calming dentist I've ever had. She explains everything clearly, doesn't rush, and somehow makes even dental advice feel encouraging instead of judgmental. No pressure, no upselling--just thoughtful, honest care. I never thought I'd say this, but I'm actually looking forward to my next appointment.

    I became a patient at Canyon Lakes Dental based on the excellent reviews here. It was great…read moreinitially, until my family and I started running into consistent issues. My whole family were patients, so this review comes from a couple of years of experience visiting them atleast twice a year times four. 1. When they call to confirm the appointment and you miss the call and call them back, they claimed each time to have not seen any missed calls, nor received any voice mails, nor any text messages sent to them requesting a reschedule. I have proof in my phone's call logs and text messages of having tried to contact them, yet they insist they never heard from me. If it's a tech issue, happening once or twice is understandable, not multiple times! 2. If you can't keep the routine cleaning appointment made 6 months in advance and speak with someone at the front desk, the office staff's routine response is that the next available appointment is 4 months out and they will put you on a waitlist. Their hygienists are always booked months out but if the hygienist can't come in when you have a scheduled appointment, you are expected to accommodate and they will have spots in a couple of weeks somehow. 3. I needed to ask the doc a question about keeping my dental appointment the following week after being prescribed certain meds earlier in the week for an emergent condition. I was told to wait till Tuesday for the doc to come in to answer the question, when the appointment was also on Tuesday. I was told there would be a charge if canceling an appointment on the same day, which is fair only if they can answer questions about whether I can be treated before the appointment day! 4. The reception area reeks of strong perfume/air freshener. When requested to unplug because it's triggering allergies for my daughter and a migraine for me, the response was the scent doesn't bother them. Good for them, but that's supposed to be a common waiting area shared with patients some of whom do mind the scent and have allergies and migraine issues. There seems to be a rotating door for dentists, we have seen the same person maybe twice in a row. Dr. Shilpa Chovatia, you and your dentist colleagues maybe excellent professionals but your front office experience and scheduling challenges leaves a lot to be desired. We will not be returning. EDITED TO ADD (April 7) I got a call from Jocelyn at the office offering to schedule me with Dr. Shilpi Chovatia for a specific time, if I didn't want to be on a cancellation waitlist. This is nice, but at this point, too late. I have had 3 appointments for different family members in the past month that needed to be rescheduled for different reasons, and we were told each time to wait months or get on their cancellation list. I am unwilling to deal with the extra administrative burden it puts on me to coordinate schedules for different family members with this practice and plan to find a more accommodating office where the office staff don't simply say "ok thank you" and hang up on me when I tell them I plan to find a different dentist because scheduling with them is so difficult.

From start to finish, everything was smooth, comfortable, and far easier than I ever imagined. I had been putting off treatment for years because of anxiety, but opting for sedation was truly a game-changer. The team explained every step clearly, the entire procedure was quick and completely painless. It felt like I closed my eyes and woke up to a new smile. The implants themselves look and feel incredibly natural--like I have my real teeth back again. I can finally smile with confidence, eat comfortably, and not worry about my dental health holding me back. Healing was straightforward, the aftercare instructions were simple, and the results are nothing short of outstanding. If you're nervous about dental work or have been considering implants but are unsure, don't hesitate. Sedation dentistry made the experience painless and relaxing, and the implants have genuinely improved my quality of life. I wish I had done this sooner! Highly recommend!

I showed up for the appointment today, and the receptionist told me there was no record of it. Not just for today--there was no appointment under my name at all. Clearly something went wrong on their end. They apologized and asked if I could come back at 10:30, but my schedule is packed with meetings and I can't rearrange things on the spot. I understand mistakes happen, but as a first impression, this wasn't great. I needed reliability, and they couldn't deliver it. I'll be looking for another office that's better organized.
