Western Dental

New Doctors don’t know what they’re doing,
Couldn’t did right a simple filing.
To expensive, I’m going to a different Dentist

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE !!! I work at a retail store and I have never treat customer likely that. Anyhow, I have been a patient here for one year or so. Unfortunately, I missed an appointment for Ortho and they charge me $ 35 dollars because it’s stated on the contract that if you miss and appointment they charge you. That was the first time & last time I have missed an appointment and this was a few months ago.
Lesson learned.. .
I haven’t miss any appointment and here I’m today waiting to go in when the employee tells me that I missed and appointment last month so they would charge me $ 35
She explained that it showed on the computer that I missed an appointment.
«Do you understand?» She asked as if I was a child. When I clearly stated that I didn’t missed an appointment.
Indeed, horrible service.

worst western dental i have been in never coming here again bad service made an appointment and Im still didn’t got called in until 2 hours later like what the fuck are you kidding me I wouldn’t recommend this place to anybody! fuck this place!

RUN Far, FAR away from this place. Most unprofessional and corrupt place ever. I got checked by a dentist. After a «lady» rude b** sat down with me to explain what i needed done. I think that was her job if it was she major failed at it. I really didn’t know what her purpose was. Explain she did not. It was like pulling teeth (no pun intended) she didn’t want to tell me anything i would have to ask her to tell me what was on these pages because it was all in medical terms. Yea THREE pages of supposed work. Which was a no brainer was totally NOT needed. Everything and the kitchen sink. I obviously already had made up my mind this place is high on laughing gas and I was not going to come here ever again. I let the lady read all of the supposed work I needed, yup all three pages. After she had finished this is what I said. «I am not interested in any of what you said all i want is a cleaning and she looked at me with a shit face». I asked about gum treatment and she replied your not interested all you want is a cleaning what the?! ZERO STARS

One of the reasons I’m horrified of going back to dentist is Western Dental. Staff looks like they don’t want to be there. On dental X-​rays, the technician just stuffed my mouth with the guard for the X-​rays, without any consideration if it was painful or not (it was!) my crowns fell within within a year! Wait times are very long, ughhh just bad overall.

I love the doctor here and the staff was great, my first time being here on 09/​06/​2014 I had bad experiences having anxiety attacks, but maria and the other assistant where great, thank you for being so patient with me… I would recommend you come here.

a one star review would be too high!
Poor service. Very rude front desk, you can tell they don’t enjoy their job. They are very short and don’t want to answer questions. Dentists don’t speak very good english and try to do a rush job on everything. dental assistants are all very unprofessional as they talk about their personal lives the whole time during the operationi.
during my routine fillings job, they had to send the dental assistant to rite aid to buy orajel. after they finished my fillings, they didn’t check allignment or sensitivity properly. Now i can’t drink anything cold or hot without feeling extreme pain. also, when i bite down, the right side hits first before the left side. don’t go to any western dental in the huntington park, maywood, south gate or any surrounding areas.
i had my teeth fixed at another dentist and they were appalled at the mickey mouse job these western dental «dentists» had done.

I came here because I was in pain from one of my molars, and just needed an answer as to what it is and to get help. I called this place, and they accommodated me last minute, on a Saturday. I went in, and did not wait long, but once I was in, a million x-​rays were taken, nothing was asked, just, sit there, and take the xrays.
Then, they took me to the dental chair, where I proceeded to wait 20 minutes. Finally, the dentist came over, looked at my x-​rays, took a QUICK look at my teeth, then proceed to yell at his assistant «22, 34, back 31, 29, etc.», and I am getting freaked out more and more by the minute, as I have not had anything explained!
Finally, he stops showing us he knows numbers, and tells me that I have 3 root canals, and problems with my gums. OK… he was nice, but then he left, and I waited forever for the billing department to discuss a procedure.
she comes, and NO KIDDING, quotes me $ 11,000.00 in work. HUH??? yeah… no. I proceeded to thank them for their time, but I was just tired at that point of feeling like a NUMBER, and not a person. I thanked them again, but informed them it was too pricey unfortunately, so I would be seeing another opinion for it, which the billing lady then said «WHEREVER YOU GO, THEY WILL BE THE SAME PRICES.»
Right, thanks.
STAY AWAY.

take kinda long… but i love the new dentists that they have. the ones before really didn’t stick my fillings in right”’

Hi Unilocalers,
Well I came to this place three years ago. They had some lady doing the free consultation she was really nice but she did not explain everything to me. For example the three different types of braces they had or the price. I was really happy to get braces so I sign the paper. Someone called the lady to a back room and she forgot about me. When she finally got back to me she just said the doctor will check you and she left. Some other lady showed up and told me how much I was going to pay which was $ 120 a month for three years because I did not have medical. I also gave a $ 500 down payment (not required) all they ask for is a check from work. The doctor checked my teeth and said I needed to take care of my cavities and remove two teeth first so I did (cost me additional $ 2,000). A month later I showed up and they finally put the braces on I got the metal ones. Again I did not know I could get clear one because this was not explain to me. I saw results the first day my front gap disappear. The downside is that they always change doctors every couple of months I had at least five different doctors working on me. Out of those five doctors only one actually fix my overbite. Just recently this young doctor showed up and he fixed my bite the first time he checked my teeth. I am really happy with this doctor and will find out his name. I was worried because its already my last year with my braces and my bite was not fix until he showed up thats the only reason this place is getting three stars.
Remember look around and do research before you chose a place for braces. Also make sure you ask all the questions you during your consultation. This doctor will be here till next year. I asked him and he said they do switch every now and then but if you do decide to go to this Western Dental I recommend you go now since he is there and knows what he is doing. I will update as soon as I find out the doctors name

Brought my grandmother here for a couple procedures because it is local. The receptionists were ghetto, spoke loudly about their personal lives, and were overall rude. The receptionists were even rude to customers who called on the phone.
My grandmother was overcharged for a few procedures and then they misplaced her dentures so she had to reorder them!
The dentist even said that we should go someplace else to get the rest of my grandmother’s work done. This place is the pits and I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. The lobby wait times were really long even though she had appointments made. They often called to reschedule her appointments.
You’re better off visiting a dental school for below-​par dentistry, and even those students are better!
