Crystal M.

From the first phone call Norma was super friendly, to seeing the doctor who took her time with me! I had a great experience at Upland Lighthouse Dentistry. In the waiting room I was offered a drink provided excellent customer service. The lady who took my X-rays and CT scan was super gentle. The doctor was very patient and explained everything to the core. I am very grateful I came here and bless their practice for all they do!

Referred by my regular dentist, I went today to RC Endodontics for that most dreaded procedure, a…read moreroot canal. In the past I've had root canals done by two different doctors. The first one was a horrible experience. It took three visits, and all were excruciating. The next two root canals were much better, but that dentist has retired. So as I entered the RC Endodontics office, I was pretty scared. I cannot fully express how wonderful everyone was there. Evelyn, at the front desk, welcomed me and went over the paperwork including the charges. She was friendly, honest, and did not rush. It gave me an immediate feeling of confidence that this was going to be as painless a process as it could be under the circumstances. The wait was not long. Dr. Parmar and her assistant Lexi ushered me into the room where the procedure was to take place. They both were incredibly kind and did everything in their power to make me comfortable before even beginning their work. Dr. Parma explained everything to me, using the giant TV in the room to display my X-rays. No shots are fun, but the novocaine injections were not horrible, and they were the last pain I felt. Lexi held my hand. Dr. Parmar kept checking to see if I was OK, and even made me laugh. They both gave me sips of fruit juice. From start to finish took about two hours. Eight hours later, I am still in no pain. I have never had a medical experience in which I felt so nurtured and cared for. Dr. Parmar, Lexi, Evelyn and another receptionist whose name I didn't get are absolutely wonderful. I can't praise them highly enough. Oh, and did I mention that the rooms have giant TVs?

This is my first time leaving a Yelp review, and unfortunately, I feel I need to share my…read moreexperience to help other patients. Please be aware that this office charged me over $100 for a consultation fee without informing me about the fee before the appointment. I understand that consultation fees may apply, but I believe patients should be clearly informed about any out-of-pocket charges before their appointment, especially when insurance information has been provided in advance. As a courtesy to patients, I strongly believe the office should disclose the consultation fee beforehand so patients have the opportunity to understand and agree to the charge before receiving the service.

I am extremely disappointed with the care I received at Barosum Dental in Upland. My experience…read moreleft me feeling unheard, misdiagnosed, and ultimately traumatized. While I was out of town on July 12, 2026, I developed severe pain on the lower right side of my mouth. As soon as I returned, I scheduled an emergency appointment for July 15. I also had a previously scheduled deep cleaning appointment for July 16. During my emergency visit, the female dentist appeared to minimize my concerns. Instead of focusing on the area where I was experiencing pain, she asked whether I had seen an endodontist for a referral from a year earlier and questioned a shadow in my gums that had existed for over 30 years on the opposite side of my mouth. I requested X-rays, and a 360-degree scan was performed. After reviewing the images, she told me everything looked fine, that I had no cavities, gave me Sensodyne toothpaste for tooth sensitivity, and said I was cleared to proceed with my deep cleaning the following day. Later that same day, the office coordinator called and told me they wanted me to see the endodontist before my cleaning. I went to the appointment, and within five minutes the endodontist identified a cavity. My primary dentist confirmed the finding and recommended that my wisdom tooth be extracted. I was extremely upset that my condition had been missed during my emergency visit. I asked to speak with the female dentist who had evaluated me, but she was unavailable. I scheduled the extraction for July 17, 2026. Because I had previously had a successful experience using nitrous oxide during another tooth extraction, I requested it again to help manage my anxiety. I was numbed for the procedure and was told I was receiving nitrous oxide, but I never felt its effects. I noticed the dental assistant was on the phone for much of the procedure, and it appeared that no one ensured the nasal cannula was properly positioned. I informed both the oral surgeon and the assistant that I did not feel like I was receiving the nitrous oxide, but my concerns were dismissed. I remained anxious throughout the procedure, and the extraction was ultimately unsuccessful. I left the office emotional, traumatized, and deeply disappointed. This was the worst dental experience I have ever had. As healthcare providers, listening to patients is essential. I repeatedly expressed my concerns and felt they were ignored every step of the way. I will not be returning to this office. I also plan to verify that my insurance was not billed for procedures that were not completed, including the deep cleaning and the unsuccessful tooth extraction. I hope this review encourages the office to improve communication, patient care, and attention to patient concerns so that others do not have a similar experience.

Turned out I needed a root canal (my first), and they started on it immediately. Not going to lie and say that part was pleasant, but he and his staff were very professional and attentive. I was relieved after the procedure, and didn't even need the medications they prescribed for the pain. The office staff is top notch, very professional and comforting at the same time. I highly recommend them.

Not in Delta Dental network and purposefully hid that fact as long as he could…read more TL,DR: Dr. Hockin is purposefully trying to scam people into letting him do their dental work despite knowing it's going to cost them an exorbitant amount because he's hiding the fact that he's not in-network. Not sure if he's in any other insurance network, but even if he isn't, he will 100% not tell you that. My dentist referred me here for a root canal. Apparently they used to be in-network until about 3 months ago, but aren't anymore. My dentist was unaware of this. When I called to make the appointment, they asked for my insurance provider, member ID, Group #, all of that and never said anything about being out of network. When I got there they did another x-ray, even though my dentist sent over the x-rays he just took earlier this week, and did a quick, 2min exam. They then tried to have me sign something else and said they were gonna start the procedure but I asked for an estimate of my co-pay first. Literally every other dentist I've ever been to has always provided me with an estimate before doing any work and I found it shady that these folks didn't. The nurse seemed anxious when I asked for it but she went and put one together. The estimate FOR MY PORTION / CO-PAY was over $800 for JUST the root canal since my dentist was gonna do the post and crown himself next week. My dentist's receptionist had looked it up for me when I was there earlier this week and told me my co-pay for the specialist would probably be around $40-$60 because I opted for the best dental insurance my employer offers. When I questioned the unexpectedly high cost, only then did she admit to me that it's because they're not in-network for Delta. I let her know that there was no way I was having the work done there when it would be less than 1/10th of the price at an in-network Endodontist and she completely understood. As I was leaving I asked her what the charge would be for what little they did today and she told me it would be $170. For comparison, my dentist did multiple x-rays (rather than just the ONE the endodontist's office did) and a much longer exam and the whole visit was covered by insurance, zero co-pay. At this point, it became clear that that's why he had her do that single x-ray despite the multiple angles that my dentist had sent him. He was trying to milk the appointment for all he could. Of course, I disputed that amount on the grounds that I wouldn't even have set foot in his office had they not hidden the fact that they were out-of-network. She went and talked to the dentist, came back, and said they'd be waiving the charges. I have no input as to how good or bad his actual work is since I didn't really allow him to work on me. All I know is that I'm down 3hrs of PTO at work for nothing, and am going to have to suffer at least an extra 3 days, since it's currently Thursday afternoon, with this tooth ache while I find and make an appointment with an in-network endodontist. Had they told me on Tuesday when I called to make the appointment that they weren't in-network, I might have been able to book an appointment at that time to have the work done this week by someone in-network. Regardless of how good or bad his actual dental work may be, Dr. Hockin is just a terrible person.

I wish there was a superstar rating so I could more accurately express just how amazing Dr Rivera…read moreand her entire staff are - 5 stars is barely enough to scratch the surface. Let me put this review into context a bit - I have been to 6 different dentists and Mountain View Dental is my 7th and not all of those were horrible. In fact some were great. But not one was absolutely exceptional the way this office is. I have extremely sensitive teeth and gum recession which causes pain even when I am brushing my teeth or breathing in cold air, causing the need for a lot more patience and precision for the folks at a dental office working on my teeth. Most dentists are more concerned about patient throughput than actually taking care to not cause unnecessary pain with the extra time it takes. But not here - Dr Rivera and her staff are so gentle and comforting I almost feel like I am going to a spa. I have never felt more well cared for then at this office. They provide soft, cozy blankets, tell light hearted stories to keep my mind off the procedure, and put on good TV shows even though I am too nervous (read - uncontrollably crying from anxiety and nerves) to open my eyes to watch them. They don't shame me for this as other dentists have done - they just make it as quick and easy as possible to take good care of my teeth. If you are looking for a new dentist, a second opinion, or simply want to experience the way going to the dentist should be, I cant recommend this office enough.

Great staff great dr with great work ethics and always very efficient is working on patient.read more
