    Fact: it takes almost dying for most nurses to go to the ER. This was me last week. I honestly had…read morenever felt so sick in my entire life. I wanted to write this review because while this has been pretty much my only experience as a patient at a hospital, I am forever grateful for the treatment I received. I came in with a temp of 103.9 and a HR of 140. I was so dizzy I could barely stand. I was triaged within minutes and immediately placed in a bay. Every single staff member (several nurses, doctor, lab, EKG and radiology techs) were absolutely incredible. Professional, skilled, expeditious and truly worked as a team. Even though I was super scared, every team member took the effort to put me at ease. I write this as a retired RN who has worked primarily in ICU, but as well as Burn ICU, peri-operative units, and even a few ER shifts when I was a float nurse. Even though I have never been on the patient side until now, I've seen a things or two. Twin Cities delivered. Turns out I had a pretty severe case of pneumonia but a week later I almost feel myself again. The doctor encouraged me to come back if I ever have any problems or if things worsened. I feel relieved to have emergency care like Twin Cities in our community. I've read some pretty abysmal reviews and being a nurse, I know there are always two sides to the story. Thank you Twin Cities.

    Staff seemed competent with their job with the exception of the patient facing front staff, they…read morewere poor. You would think the people facing the patient would exhibit some compassion and care. This is the same complaint I have about Templeton Imaging. Clinical staff is great but the people who start the process are horrible. I realize that it is a tough job admitting patients but if you can't exhibit a level of concern and compassion, GET ANOTHER JOB! My wife went there on a Monday because she was short of breath and had a very low Hemoglobin number and was advised by her PCP to get to the ER for a transfusion. Long wait in the ER waiting room, finally got a bed in a room. Nurses there seemed proficient and friendly, one specifically was very attentive, wish I caught his name. Finally admitted to a room and the journey began. She ended up with three units of blood and an upper GI procedure. In the end she was discharged on Thursday with VERY unclear discharge orders. Not sure what discharge planning there was since I was there in the afternoon and nothing was listed on the board about a plan. Overall if there was another choice I would take it. I know there were a lot of complaint about Tenet but at least they seemed better. I find this disappointing because I worked for Adventist East and consider it to be a fine organization. Again the nurses and most of the staff are very good but the challenge is the front facing people don't seem to care.

    The way he does business!,…read more Dentist: i came to this man as a visitor in Atascadero and he could've given me a simple temporary re-glue of a loosened cap.....but instead his head could only think of another $4,000$ or more project.....another cap, another client. I don't know if this is a good dentist because he's never working and he's never working because he doesn't have to with the charges that he puts on. For a little tiny reglue he was charging to begin with $400 and that's before he looked at the tooth! Then he told me I should go to my own dentist 6 hours away because that dentist 'is so good'.But I happen to be here in this money sucking ToWn for a visit. Still I was sitting waiting for a dentist to simply re-glue my tooth, clean it if it need be and i would have been quite grateful. But he is so concerned about legal issues that he sent me away without a peek! He being so intent to the possibilities of what might and could occur he din't inspect at all and looking for another possible $4,000 redo on my tooth. I wouldn't give this guy a nickel. I wouldn't go to this dentist because he's not a doctor and he has no feelings he knows I need a reglue and he won't, didn't even look to see what was the situation. he wouldn't do even after I put hours into waiting for him, getting my x-rays to him and And and. His fingers are too big for a dentist anyway. He's nothing more than a money grabber. I guess in short .....this man was charging me up the gazoo for a teeny little $20 glue without even looking at it! It was just ridiculous I was waiting for him to bring me into his office so he could see what the heck the. Situation was...to properly assass the situation.....but instead ...he just keeps schoomosing. I kept waiting for him to get me in the office to see what was wrong with my tooth before he started charging me for a new cap!

    I have had the very good fortune of finding Dr. Kim to be my dentist, after my recent move to the…read morearea. And I was spoiled, because my LA dentist is the best. Dr. Kim? Well, he is all that and more! Attentive and thorough, a super good communicator and such a nice person. And the folks running the office are top notch. His prices are reasonable, the follow up is detailed, and it's a really inviting place to be. Dare I say.... I love going to the dentist! Well, Dr. Kim that is...

    Wonderful man. Brilliant, kind, friendly (if you need that). Again they took me right away and…read moretreated me so kindly. No extra charges. Just great people.

    My initial review of this office was very positive. I had been a patient elsewhere, and upon coming…read morehere, I was immediately impressed with the technology. Fast, non-invasive x-rays, the ability to fabricate crowns in-house, huge staff...felt like it was a step in the right direction. Fast forward to now, and I feel differently. I had one crown done, as a tooth had cracked. I was given a $1,000 estimate with the standard disclaimer that I'll be responsible for the actual amount. No problem, I know the drill, as I have had dental work done in the past. The problem was their "estimate" was 100% off, and now I'm being asked to pay $2,000 for a crown that was supposed to be $1,000. From my perspective, if my job was to deal with insurance companies on a daily basis and I had hundreds of patients and thousands of EOBs, I should be able to get closer than being half-way to the actual price. I can't help but feel like I was taken advantage of. Had I known the actual price, I likely would have shopped around and had the work done elsewhere. On my next cleaning visit, the dentist told me I needed something like 6 or 7 MORE crowns. How many of those are medically necessary, and how many are to add billable income, since they cost so much more than insurance covers, AND can be done in-house?

    This dental office has zero compassion for their customer. We paid $40,000 for a set of teeth and…read morehave missed a couple of appointments. We r being charged $500 for a missed appointment as per their policy. They will not negotiate or accept payments. The appointment was for a free cleaning now we are being charged $500 for missed appointment and $75 for the free cleaning. They told us we have to go find another dentist to have his teeth tightened and cared for because we can't pay that payment all upfront, as well as whatever money it cost to go get his teeth adjusted his mouth has sores in it from not having his teeth on properly, they just don't care. I'm so frustrated. I can't believe we gave these people our hard earned money for these teeth that they're not willing to take care of. We're not saying we won't pay the money. We just don't have that much money on hand. With our changing economy and the impending world war maybe your policies should be amended. How could you be so? arrogant? are you not living in the same community we live in? Central Coast Dental give our community a break! Your punishment doesn't fit the infraction. This Dentist should be ashamed of himself and definitely talk with his office manager regarding quality of care for each patient not reciting policies that don't fit each situation.

    Dr. D provided an amazing result for my wife. With a full upper denture and partial lower, she had…read morebeen choking on her food. She also had periodontal disease. Dr. D came up with a treatment plan for upper and lower all-on-four implants including zygomatic implants to support her upper arch. Hers was a very complex case, but Dr. D fully explained the surgery, recovery and all options before we made our decision. He's very experienced, and truly knows every aspect of dental implants. He made us feel comfortable right away with his very caring nature. He really does want the best result in every case. In the end, my wife has her life back - she can eat without choking and has amazing, beautiful white teeth. We did visit two other locations in SLO county and neither gave us the feeling they could do the job and we didn't feel comfortable with either. They were both quite a bit more expensive too. We could not be happier with the entire process or with Dr. D!
