Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

i was a new patient and was told by the staff that the basic x-rays, exam & cleaning would cost $250. this was ok since my insurance pays 50% of this cost. i had been refunded the $125 (50%) ounce the insurance claim was submitted by other doctors. no so with this one. he was sent the reimbursement on april 12th 2017 ( my appt. was april 4th). it is now june 8th and he ignores repeated requests for the money. there were other problems with the staff but the money is it for now. shady/slick

Dr Gonzales is a miracle worker! I had terrible pain and even numbness in my face. Turns out through exrays and his experience that my jaw bone was touching my ear bone, for most of my life!! I was told many other reasons by other Drs, even had an MRI! But dr Gonzalez in all his wisdom fixed my jaw though mouth appliances & braces. No more pain!! The office staff is so friendly, caring, professional thoughtful & sensitive to the needs of clients. I actually love going to the dentist!!
