    All this dentist wants is money he does not care about his patients. Pretty sure he tells everyone the same thing that they need a different type of scan for their nerve. Went to a different oral surgeon S. Shaun Daneshgar d.m.d/ oral surgery center and they didnโ€™t even mention anything about a scan. Went in to get my wisdom teeth removed and was done and out in about 25 minutes

    My girls and I have been to Dr. Chew for wisdom teeth and difficult extractions. I cannot say enough good things- he is a magician!!! The technique he uses for wisdom teeth is unbelievably quick and thorough. He has a delightful personality. His staff is friendly and efficient. During Covid 19 he has UV lights in the procedore rooms and has state of the art head gear to protect staff and patients. He is just the best. We go out of our network to see him every time.

    I had a referral to Dr George and it was honestly just a messy experience. Shouldโ€™ve listened to the reviews on this one. First visit: $250 3d scan. 2nd Visit: They tell me they lost the doctorโ€™s notes from my first visit and that I had to reschedule. 3rd visit: Insisted my insurance is no longer eligible and my authorization was voided. So I called my insurance who told me that I was still approved. I thought they were acting suspicious so I came back to read some reviews. Turns out this office has been going downhill very quickly recently. Unfortunately wasted a few months here.

    BEST WISDOM TEETH EXTRACTION DENTIST. VERY PROFESSIONAL (HE DOESNT DO ANYTHING ELSE EXCEPT EXTRACT WISDOM TEETH). EXTREMELY THOROUGH STAFF (THEY GAVE ME AN INFORMATIVE INSTRUCTION SHEET ON HOW TO TAKE CARE OF MY WOUND POST SURGERY WHICH WAS VERY HELPFUL), KNOWS WHAT HES DOING AND BEST OF ALL I FELT NO PAIN WHATSOEVER JUST TUGGING LIKE SOMEBODY PULLING YOUR SHIRT BUT NO PAIN WHICH IS GREAT FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE AFRAID OF THE DENTIST. HE EVEN INTRODUCED ME TO FROZEN YOGURT. BEST RECOMMENDATION. HIGHLY RECOMMEND DR. CHEW FOR WISDOM TEETH REMOVAL. CASH AND/OR CREDIT/DEBIT CARD ONLY.

    I came to this office with an emergency referral from my family dentist. I arrived and waited one hour to be seen, when there were no other patients in the waiting room. The dentist then came and told me about some risks of permanent damage with the extraction. When I asked questions and explained my situation, he got upset with me and gave me attitude. One other review says this is him being "direct" but there is a significant difference between being direct and having an attitude. He cut me off while I was explaining and said, "I understand that. Im trying to help but you don't like it." I wasn't even complaining about his services to him or expressing dissatisfaction...yet. I was very confused. I asked for clarification on the risks and he just repeated the same thing and left. When his assistant came in, I was told I had to wait 4-6 weeks for authorization for the procedure. I asked her to clarify some things the doctor said that I didn't understand and she explained which was nice. However, she walked out and I asked if I could leave so she said, "yes, bye! It's not like you're going to sit here for the 4-6 weeks." This was possibly meant as a joke, but given the circumstances, the pain I was in, and why I was there, it just missed the mark. Also, I wasn't given any care instructions in the meantime (I ultimately had to return to my family dentist to explain the result of the referral and ask for more clarification).Nonetheless, I'm happy for those who otherwise had a positive experience! Not saying the people here are bad people or bad at what they do, my experience just wasn't a positive one.

    0 star. Treat you like a machine. Didn't tell you anything. Act like non of their business. If you have better insurance, don't go there.

    DONโ€™T COME HERE. this doctor is not even respectful, he trick me $300 dollar for the x-ray, he will not accept patients if the patient did not do the x-ray with him, but actually the x-ray did not have to pay because I have insurance.

    The attitude of doctors and nurses is extremely bad. They just want you to pay. They have no medical ethics at all. I can't imagine that this kind of clinic will continue to harm people.
