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. Update: June 2026 I was contacted again by this business. They confirmed that I did not owe the approximately $300 they keep sending me invoices for. However, they instead claimed that I received a check from Delta Dental for about $90 several years ago, which they believed they were entitled to. They confirmed that they would continue (knowingly) sending me bills for the larger amount, but that if I paid what they believed I would actually owed, they would stop. I still have not received an invoice or any written documentation for what they now say I owe, and there's no way I'm just going to send them a check based on a voicemail and hope everything works out. This was followed up by a later voicemail threatening to "send me to debt collections," but they did not specify whether they would be trying to send to collections for the less than $300 they are (knowingly) falsely invoicing me for or the $90 they now claim I owe. I've requested that they send an invoice and documentation for what they actually believe I owe, while alerting them to my concerns that their continuing to send false invoices appears to be criminal. The saga continues. Again, avoid this business!

Genuinely the best office I've personally been to. I switched to MMD because the last dentist…read moreoffice my insurance would allow me to have was just truly a disrespect to patients. And I found myself second guessing their opinion so I switched to MMD for a second opinion and sure enough I was right, the previous dentist was wrong. That said, MMD makes you feel like more than just another patient. Dr Gill is wonderful and genuinely I've never felt safer going to the dentist. She's honest but so non-judgmental. I struggled with brushing my teeth pretty consistently (like I'd miss a couple days in between) because as a kid I was never taught to at all so it was a habit I had to build as an adult. I was honest with her about this because genuinely I wanted to be better. She never judged me and she even took the time to go through each topic with me so I was well prepared to move forward. It's been a few months, I haven't missed a single day, and I do feel as though she was a huge part in me building that habit. Tajanae the hygienist, I absolutely adore her and she really does feel like you're just working with a friend. She's truly a safe space where you can really feel comfortable. I had a deep cleaning with her and some laser treatment and it was a breeze because of how comfortable she is. She has also been a big part in this journey. Jose is also really amazing, he will work with you on things that you might be struggling with and he's was very helpful in me being able to even afford the dental work I needed. My insurance barely paid for anything so the discounts this office provides is just incredible. It was even cheaper than when I was going to western dental. Lastly, Dr Justin Nassiri, he's wonderful. I went in today to get my wisdom teeth removed and he was honest with me that it was a bigger risk for me to get them out than to leave them in because I have a nerve right along my root and I'm a very high risk for losing feeling in my face. Genuinely, many doctors I've known wouldn't have cared about this and would have done it anyways. I am truly grateful for his honesty because this saved me a great deal of money and potential problems in the future. I say all of this with absolute gratitude for all workers at MMD. I've never had a better dental team and I cannot imagine going anywhere else. Thank you truly!
