Shadow Hills Dental Care

Everyone here is very friendly and professional. I have been going to Dr. Kodet for years, even before he was at Shadow Hills. He doesn’t recommend costly, unnecessary procedures like some dentists that I have heard about. You can trust his recommendations. The visits have never been painful. Highly recommended!
To the earlier reviewer Franklin: they do actually volunteer to do pro-​bono work through a community organization. It is unlikely that they would for random individuals walking in.

Worst experience of my life!!! Dr Silva is a JOKE
On November 3 I arrived at Shadow Hills Dental for my appointment to have a deep cleaning also an exam by Dr. Silva as well as any needed fillings and a preparation for my permanent crown placement. Dr. Silva examined my x-​rays and he recommended two fillings on the upper left side of my mouth he also said that he would prep the crown tooth so there can be an impression taken and a permanent crown ordered and seeded once it arrived from the lab. Dr. Silva said he would return shortly and he would have one of the secretaries go over the plan for the day. Shortly thereafter the office manager Melissa came in and told me that my total out-​of-​pocket for today’s visit would be $ 2200 and that included seven fillings and two crowns. I told her that I had no idea what she was talking about and that there must be some sort of a mistake. Dr. Silva told me that there would be two fillings and only one crown preparation, since I have paid for my crown I paid the crown in full in 2013. Since 2013 I have not been able to have my permanent crown seated due to Dr. Silva cracking the permanent crown twice. Dr. Silva came into the exam room and interrupted and he stated that he didn’t care what he told me all he knew was that I needed this treatment and if I am denying it then I can just leave I told Dr. Silva that I was confused because he told me one thing and now the Office secretary is telling me something else Dr. Silva said placed his hand in front of my face and said «listen, I don’t care what I just told you.» I have had to have repeated visits to the dental office to have temporary crowns placed on my tooth and I have had several impressions taken and sent to the lab to have a permanent crown made. I made two payments for my permanent crown one was $ 300 and the second payment was $ 400 both payments were made in January 2013. Through the course of the last two years I have been in and out of the office having temporary crowns placed on my tooth and waiting for my permanent crown to come from the lab. The last time that I attempted to have my permanent crown seeded the office staff could not find the crown in the office they apologized and told me they would have the the lab send another one and they would call me when it arrived they never called me. When I was having this conversation with the office manager Melissa I was expressing to her my frustrations with the whole situation Dr. Silva took it upon himself to come out to the reception area and he told me that «I needed to just find the door as quickly as possible and don’t let it hit me on the way out». He also proceeded to tell me «you can take everything that you are saying and you can shove it ««just shove it» he also stated «I am not going to talk to you anymore and you can take your bullshit out of my office» When I told him that he had cracked my crown twice he told me «that doesn’t matter you have not been compliant and had you come in sooner this wouldn’t of happened». He called me «ignorant». I told him that I have been compliant I have been coming to the office several times and each time that I come he either cracks my crown or they can’t find it and they have to put a temporary on that just falls off two weeks later. The computer systems never came up and running I got the business card of the owner and the manager told me that the owner would be following up with me regarding this matter I told the secretary and the office manager that I wanted my money back for the crown that I never received and they told me that that was not possible. All they told me was that they would have the owners take a look at the matter and they would get back to me. This has been by far the most incredibly embarrassing and appalling experience I’ve ever had at any doctors office. The level of unprofessionalism is outrageous I am simply horrified that Dr. Silva has a license to provide care to patients he is very aggressive and very derogatory. In my opinion he is either under the influence of some sort of substance or he flat out does not care about his license as a medical professional. The way he spoke to me and the way he treated me was absolutely uncalled for and unwarranted. I believe a thorough investigation should be done on his practice.

Such a great experience! I personally hate going to any Dentist office, but the staff (Melissa and Marissa) were super friendly and welcoming. The Dr. was really nice and to the point and gave me a few recommendations on the work I need and should do. He made me feel better and reassuring me that it would not hurt. I had an impacted wisdom tooth taken out. It literally took about 4 minutes, it was over before I knew it! I will definitely be going back in the future for any dental work and will recommend this place to all of my friends.

Great office, great Dentists. Dr. Godet, hope I am spelling it right. I quit my other Dentist in Palm Desert as he was getting disgusted working on me, with my fears and difficult problem. Dr. Godet let my son in law Dr. Mike Ostrom a retired Dentist come in to oversee the work and Mike approved of what Dr. Godet wanted to do. That helped as Mike was one of the best Dentists in Seattle. Lee Carpenter

Nothing bad to say about this place. I switched over to it from another local dentist where there was a really rude lady and I’m extremely glad I did. I’ve had two separate dentists do work on me here and they were both extremely professional and polite. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

My first time in this office and had to have a wisdom tooth extracted. The office assistants were polite and talked me through my fears. Dr Aghaloo has a wonderfully calming chair side manner and in the blink of an eye, had that tooth out. Eight hours later, I even got a check up call. And I was happy to report little pain and all is well. I recommend this office wholeheartedly. If a coward like me can be at ease here, everyone will love this dentist.

What an amazing dental office Shadow Hills Dental is.
I went to numerous dentist in the Coachella valley before committing to get my dental work done with Dr. J.
Compared to other dentist in the area, you will not find another dental group with the professionalism that Shadow hills has.
The whole facility is extremely clean
The staff is always very kind.
My tooth extraction and fillings were pain free.
What a relief!!!
Overall I am very pleased with Shadow Hills and will be returning.
