Robert E Lombardo DDS

This is by far the best dental experience I have ever had. They treat you like family.

Ever since I met these wonderful people, I’ve been joyful go come back. They don’t just take care of your teeth, they rare your mind and remove all fears. They are kind, generous and thoughtful. I will miss them when I move back east. I’ve already told them that when I’m in need of any dental care, that I’ll be flying back here.

Beware the «TOOTH NAZI!»
I chose to go to Dr. Lombardo’s office when I developed a sudden toothache & my dentist was out-​of-​town. At first I was impressed with the technology. .. including 2 hour crown appointments on site. Everyone was friendly except Cindy. .. to get a rough quote from her is like «pulling teeth» (pun intended.)
Dr. Lombardo’s office wanted to remove the crown, deep clean my entire mouth (please note I had just had a standard quarterly cleaning a week prior), build-​up the tooth & set a new crown.
I had made them aware of the current drastic change in my financial condition even though I have Delta Dental there is a ⁷⁰⁄₃₀ split.
Dr. Lombardo’s office refused to guarantee their own crown if I only had the deep cleaning done on the quadrant which encompassed the tooth in question. An unnecessary deep cleaning of my entire mouth doubled my co-​pay. They look at the «whole mouth» = we want more of your money.
I returned to my dentist where there was no need to remove the existing crown, only 3 teeth were deep cleaned and I rinsed with a special mouth wash. I am pain free and the cost $ 21.00.
The kicker, when I went in to Dr. Lombardo’s to sign the release for the full mouth x-​rays (another unnecessary detail) for my dentist to receive same it noted I could NEVER RETURN to the practice again. Really? This is standard verbage. Are you kidding me?
Is this AMERICA or? Can I choose to go to any dentist I want or ?
For those Seinfeld fans you’ll know what I mean when I refer to the «TOOTH NAZI!»
Who do they think they are?

have gone to this Dentist for several years.1 stop type of Dentist. Does it all… Gentle, gets it done right the first time. nothing gets past Laural, hygentist, nor does she stop till the job is completed… Great Dental Office. I drive 45 miles to go to them…

I wont go anywhere else. Dr. Lombardo and his staff are the best. I dont usually write reviews but they are worth it. They are all wonderful!

This office is the BEST!!! They are ALL kind and gentle. Dr. Lombardo has worked with me in the past when I need extensive dental work done and my insurance had ran out. In an emergency they have always worked me right in. The staff is so friendly and welcoming everyone into the office. When I was receiving physical therapy, Dr. Lombardo even gave me ice packs to relieve the soreness!!! This place gets a 5 star from me!!!

My Dad just left the hospital after a 90 day stay for a severe hypoglycemic attack. During his stay at Desert Regional they mistakenly threw his teeth away and said that it wasn’t their problem when we tried to resolve the problem. So my Dad was lethargic and we were only checking in to get an idea on pricing. Unfortunately my car was overheating due to the heat in July, so I had no choice but to leave him there and go get the car dropped off at the mechanic. Upon my return they had my Dad in the chair working on a mold and had his bill all nicely established at about 4k within one hour. I was surprised but my Dad said he wanted it so we went ahead. Then my Dad found out he had to get teeth pulled and he got scared and declined. We decided to not move forward, but Lynn decided to bill him as if he had shiny new teeth. She said she would credit his account, never did… I called and she avoided me… I finally said I would protest the entire bill as they had not done anything except bill him in full. In my opinion, dr. Lombardo May do good work but his office manager needs some ethics training and she should know that people aren’t going to fall for the «I can’t hear you «on the phone trick… Hopefully she doesn’t try to take advantage of every old and unfortunate old person.

Dr. Kim provided me with a great dental experience. I am not one of the people who have the anxiety of going to a dentists office, but I was not disappointed. He laughed and joked with me and made sure he clearly explained everything going on in my xrays and tests and answered every question I had. I highly recommend him.

So glad I listened to all the other reviews this place is great! Very clean office and up to date equipment. I had the most thorough teeth cleaning of my entire life done here by Ginny, she’s awesome! Dr. Lombardo was very patient and thorough as well. I’m so pleased with all my visits so far!

I am a military wife and have been avoiding the dentist for the past 3 years. I have seen several dentists in different states and my anxiety and dislike for the dentist has held strong until I came to Yucca Valley. My husband had been hounding me to go to the dentist and after researching Yucca Valley and surrounding areas I made an appointment with Dr. Lombardo. This was by far the best decision I could have made. I’ve never been so comfortable and confident in any of my dentists. Dr. Lombardo is very knowledgeable, likeable and gentle. His equipment is up to date and everything is very clean. Him and his staff create a relaxing anxiety free environment. I don’t even need my ipod for my teeth cleanings! They are amazing! He told me that I would eventually need a crown on one of my teeth but would probably be okay for a couple years. I told him that it’s a must that it gets done before we get stationed elsewhere because I know that I’ll never find another dentist like him. You must go here. You will not regret your decision. I wish I could take him with me when we move.Dr. Lombardo is the best!

Seriously, this place is the best! Everyone in there are absolutely friendly/​amazing, and I never thought I’d love a denist clinic as much as I do this. They were so reasonable with the price and my situation. At the time, my insurance doesn’t hit the system until 2 weeks later, so they told me that they’d help me in any way they can so I can wait out those 2 weeks. Dr. Lumbardo filed down one of my wisdom tooth because it was way too sharp and it was poking at me. It made such a difference. Then 2 weeks later, I went in to get all four of my wisdom teeth out and they did a great job. Dr. Lumbardo is amazing at what he does, and the staff’s there are well educated. Go here and you won’t regret it. ((((: And they also called me the next day (today) to check on me and see how I was doing. That’s so sweet.

Dr. Kim and Dr. Lombardo are both awesome! From the minute I walked in to make my first appointment, the entire staff was welcoming, and kind. I forgot her name, but she did my teeth cleaning, and usually that means pain, but not this time. Everyone who worked on my teeth was super gentle, and listened to my concerns– even if some of them may have been silly.
Dr. Kim did my initial appointment, he has a great personality, and he’s very polite. He actually explained everything that was going on, in detail. Not like other places where they’re like I’m the dentist, you should trust me, the end. I haven’t had a chance to have him work on my teeth yet due to my schedule, but I would be happy to have him do that.
Dr. Lombardo did my fillings, he seems like a sweet person. HE LET ME LISTEN TO MY IPOD while he did his drilling because I told him the sound of the drilling is what freaked me out so much. SO accomodating. The sweet lady assisting him even double checked my allergies before starting anything *bonus points for that! You would think that’s a common sense thing, but you’d be surprised. Anyways, he did my fillings, and since i was numb I told him I was pretty sure i could bite okay. Over the weekend, I realized, not so much — it felt off. I called them on Monday morning, and I’m sure if I called them earlier and I wasn’t already at work, they would have gotten me in that day — they gave me an appointment first thing the next morning with Dr. Lombardo. I was in and out in like 15 minutes? With my bite fixed.
I cannot recommend this office enough!!! I’m going back for my other fillings, and I’m not even going to take an anxiety pill :) YAY!

Broke a crown and just moved to town. Based on Unilocal reviews, tried this dentist. What a pleasant surprise!!! They got me in after I called…30 mins… filled out initial papers and right on into a chair. They were able to glue the crown back in place. Total of 1 hr and I was back home and they charged a very fair price. My alternative was to drive 8 hrs round trip and gas money to go back to the dentist who had not glued it well when he installed it 1 month ago!!! I now have a new dentist with this group and so does my wife! Cannot thank them enough for efficiency and fair pricing. I also echo others that the staff is really cool as is Dr Lombardo who attended me. Also thanks to my fellow Unilocalers for such accurate reviews that led me to this dentist. A big thanks and a big 5 thumbs up!!!

I’ve only been living in the desert for a year and half… so when I had a toothache I was a lil bit concerned. The last time I went to a dentist was in Los Angeles circa 2006. I should add that I dread going to dentists. I was MORE than pleasantly surprised when I stumbled upon this office. It’s right in the center of town on a side street, and the sign out front says «WE CATER TO COWARDS!» My kind of place.
The office is seriously immaculate. I used to live in L. A and my old dentist office was near Rodeo Dr. in beverly hills and it was outdated and quite frankly dingy. This place has brand new everything, from nice leather reclining seats, cool cabinets, to modern equipment –digital cameras etc… The staff are all very helpful and nice and often wear fun matching dental shirts.
I have always gone to Dr. Kim, he’s a fun easy to talk to guy who is very knowledgable. He will even call later to make sure everything is ok after your visit.
Patients will also be surprised by the amazing views from the exam windows. Beautiful patio for family to wait for you, as well as Joshua trees and desert landscape sky view. The satellite radio was way better than my old dentist who only rocked the old elevator music. This place was playing cool indie– new music.
I have had a bunch of things taken care of in the past few months, and the office is always good about getting you in on time and taken care of. After a routine cleaning, I left with a stunning white smile.

I go here my Dentist is Dr.Kim. He is awesome, and super gentle! I was looking for dentist reviews everywhere online, I couldn’t find too much for the Yucca Valley area. So I went to Dr. Lombardos by chance… It was a good choice I have already been here for about two years and have been here many many times (at least 10 in these last two years!) Besides Dr. Kim…The ladies up front are extremely nice and informative, especially Lynn (I think that’s the spelling. Anyway I don’t have insurance and in my opinion the prices are too steep… Hope this helps

This dentist and his staff are the best. I have been a patient or customer for years now. The first time I visited them for a cleaning my hygienist (Ginny) discovered an removed a piece of plaster all the other dentist had missed since I had braces as a late teen. That plaster had been causing me pain and a scrapping sensation, but no one notice it or removed it in all my other dental visits. I was like the lion with thorn in my paw, and she removed the thorn. They really care about their patients and provide the best care and treatment.
