Black mold on dentist chair
Tatiana P.

I understand the building is a bit older and has some wear and tear but having mold on the dentist chairs is unacceptable. I wish the staff will fix this problem soon.

A Dentist that makes you not dread going to the dentist! I was on the hunt for a new dentist, and…read morefound this one just because I walk by it when I go to Starbucks. When I originally looked on my dental insurance website, it was not giving me their office an option. I'm really glad I looked into it because they are amazing, and it turned out they did accept my insurance. Modern Dentistry is a perfect description for this place. Their website is user friendly, you can book everything online, and fill out all your health questionnaires through it as well, leaving less time sitting in the waiting room! Also, they have some later office hours for those working folks who need a later appointment. And this millennial loves the option to book or change appointments online, and I know I'm not the only one. The office is very new, and they have all the top of the line equipment! Besides just the ease of technology, the office staff is amazing, and Dr. Rigor is top notch, don't let his age fool you, he's THE BEST DENTIST I'VE EVER HAD. Dr. Rigor is very friendly, thorough in explaining everything in detail.. he will even pull up Google and show you images to better explain something. I ended up needing a crown on my first visit, and did it all in house. I left with a "new tooth" that same day. And he guarantees it if anything were to go wrong, which was just a bonus in my opinion. He listened if I told him I needed more numbing. There was absolutely no hesitation to make me comfortable. I have heard horror stories from people not having that same experience so I thought I should note that. And when he tells you call me if you have ANY issues he means it. I had a little bit of pain the next day and thought it was infected, so I called and they got me right in. He took one look at it and knew it was ulcers (don't quote me I'm not a doctor) said he could zap them with the laser and the pain and symptoms would go away within a day, so he did and he was right the pain and symptoms went away. And while I was there I told him the crown felt a little "long" so he quickly shaved it down (completely painless) and I was in and out in just a few minutes. Also, the Dental Hygienist, Rebecca, will make you feel completely at ease, and like you've been best friends forever! Thought it was also important to note the office staff went over my cost, and options of cost BEFORE we proceeded with my crown. So I wasn't just stuck with a bill with no clue my options or how much everything would cost. And I believe for the care I received it was worth the money. I have already referred them to people who ask, and my husband also now goes there and is also happy with them. I know this is a lot to say about a dentists office, but these are things that would be important to me to know when looking for one!

Upon being called for x-rays, I informed the technician that I cannot do the bitewing PLATES due to severe GAGGING on them! I asked for a Pantagraph. Tech. had to ck with Dr Rigor. Dr. Rigor came to me insisting that if HE does not have the bitewing x-ray plates, he could NOT make a clear diagnosis! (My previous Dentist retired several yrs ago in a different city & NEVER had a problem with ONLY using the PANTAGRAPH + oral exam for diagnosis). Dr Rigor then stated (without examining my mouth) to refer me to their "traveling surgeon who would remove my severely loose tooth & BTW remove a broken one next to it!!!! I am a Sr. Citizen & work 12 hr days. He said I could return in the morning for the surgeon OR come at the end of Sept 2026. I stated I cannot. He had me make the appt anyway. I pd a dn pmt. of $100 cancelable 4 biz days prior to the appt. I was livid, As the weeks passed, I had a major trip WITH this bad tooth. I returned realizing I could not trust anyone THERE to take care of my needs. Canceled the appt, got my $ refunded. ALSO, the etiquette of the waiting room/front desk staff was unacceptable. they were visibly EATING while patients were waiting to be seen. they were also loudly talking about what they were going to eat next! Dr.'s Office etiquette in my lifetime NEVER allowed that type of behavior out of respect for the patients with their ailments!!!! This office advertised itself as "ACCOMODATING"!!! I cannot refer ANYONE to them at all!!!

A hidden gem in the heart of Clovis!…read more United Health Centers is one of the best dental offices I have ever been to! I recently discovered United Health Centers because we are new to the area. We have been very unhappy at our previous dentist so when a local Mom in a Clovis Moms group highly suggested UHC I couldn't wait to make an appointment! They even accept Medi-cal which is a plus! To my surprise they have a brand spanking new office location off Shaw in Clovis! The staff was super professional when I made my first appointment. They were able to see me right away which was so accommodating. As soon as you walk in the door you can smell the new carpets and paint that's how new this place is! The receptionist was friendly & courteous and all the equipment is shining & state of the art. The lobby overall is warm & inviting. The dental assistant, Sara, was so polite and caring. My now dentist Dr. Prieto is very attentive. I got a cleaning done a few days ago and she was so gentle. I came back again yesterday to get a filling and not only was it painless she explained every step each time throughout the procedure. In the past I had anxiety about going to the dentist bc of bad experiences but because Dr. Prieto is so knowledgeable and because she and the staff make me feel like family and treat me with respect and make me feel so comfortable I am so proud to be a forever client! I couldn't wait to tell my family & friends about my excitement and I couldn't wait to do a Yelp review! I highly suggest that you too become a forever client! You will not be disappointed!

I am needing to search for a new dentist because my insurance is no longer accepted at my current…read moredental office. Clovis Crossing came up as a possible choice. I will NEVER go to this dental office. My resolve stems from a very bd experience I had in May of 2025. I did not post a Yelp review at the time but I will post one now in hopes that it will help others to avoid being mistreated. In May of 2025 I needed to have an emergency root canal done and my general dentist referred me to this office which was covered by my insurance. I was examined by the general dentist on hand and told that I would definitely need the root canal and I could come back the following day for the procedure with the oral surgeon. While I was still in the exam room and still in horrific pain, the financial representative came in and offered me 2 options for crowns following the root canal. 1) A basic metal crown which would bae a $300 co-pay, and 2) A top of the line Cerec fired crown which would be $2,600 out of pocket because it is not covered by my insurance. I have previously had all the metal removed from my mouth and did not want the basic metal crown. I agreed to the Cerec fired crown while under duress. It was very unprofessional and unethical to tell me that I only had 2 choices and then present me with the paperwork to sign or one or the other in that moment when I was in extreme pain and very vulnerable. I did not have time to think it all the way through before signing the paperwork. I feel like I was taken advantage of. The financial assistant should have told me that there were other options for crowns available to me besides the basic crown and the top of the line crown. I realized the next day when I was home and had less anxiety that I had possibly been lied to about the fact that there were only two options, so I called the office and without identifying myself, I asked the woman who answered the phone (who happened to be the same woman I had dealt with the day before) if there were several options for crowns following a root canal. She assured me that there are several options available and that it would be up to my dentist and myself to decide which option would be the best for me. I was not given that opportunity when I was sitting in the exam chair. I was furious! That information should have been explained to me when I was sitting in the chair in the exam room the day before and prior to my signing any financial agreement. This is truly a case of unprofessional and unethical practices. I have told many people about the bad experience I had and I have now read many Yelp reviews from others who have had similar experiences. I will continue to tell anyone who will listen that Clovis Crossing Dental is NOT a reputable business. That experience left a very bitter taste in my mouth. (Pun intended)

I called their office and left a message and no one called me back. I also emailed them and someone did respond and I called the number and email and left another message. I waited 3 days for a call back because I was in pain and I needed a dental care right away. When I called back, the first thing out of their mouth, they were not taking one insurance and needed my insurance information before they could book the appointment. Just to be clear I do have dental insurance and actually have supplemental dental insurance through USAA. I called my insurance companies and confirmed the dental plan that I had. I called back again. It has been two weeks since I called and I never called back. Ended up going back to a previous dentist who got me in right away and I will post a review on them. This review is not for their dental service, but the fact that their office staff doesn't even take the time to ask why are you calling and is there anything we can help you with. Plus they don't return phone calls.

The dentist, barely spoke English. No personality. Very dry. Didn't answer questions. I paid them for 2 X-rays bc they had a deal. I'm currently trying to learn if I still have that deal, and if I can schedule or get a refund. I've already called once, and left a message. An hour later, I called again, and got a woman, who immediately put me on hold... For 12 minutes before my call disconnected. I called back, and left another voicemail. (Edit: I drive to them to inquire about the "Plan" I paid for. The Reception was clearly busy, so I forgave my call drop. She also clarified my plan, and answered some important questions for me. I appreciated that. I gave back 2 stars, but my score remains 3 because I had to go to the office in person.)

The way their staff treats patients based on their insurance coverage is absolutely disgusting. They knew EXACTLY what insurance I had. They specifically confirmed they accepted it and scheduled me for a Friday appointment. I arrived at 11:30 a.m. and sat there until 1 p.m., only to be told that the dentist working that day doesn't accept my insurance. Apparently, he only sees patients with higher-end PPO insurance, while the dentist who accepts mine wouldn't be there until Monday. Then WHY DID YOU SCHEDULE MY APPOINTMENT FOR FRIDAY WHEN NO DENTISTS WHO TOOK MY INSURANCE WAS AVAILABLE? This is sheer incompetence and a complete disregard for people's time. They wasted an hour and a half of my day because their staff couldn't manage something as basic as scheduling a patient with the correct dentist. My entire family goes to this clinic, but not anymore. We're ALL leaving and finding another dental practice. They just lost several patients because of their incompetence and appalling customer service. People deserve to be treated with dignity regardless of what insurance they carry. Having different insurance doesn't make someone a second-class citizen. Absolutely the worst dental clinic I've dealt with in the Fresno/Clovis area. I would never recommend this place.
