First off I want to say that this place is very unorganized! I called on a friday because I was in pain do to my wisdom tooth and needed an extraction done. The receptionist told me no appointment needed and to be there by 8:30 am, First come first serve. When I got there Monday morning at exactly 8:30, there were like 15 people already there ahead of me waiting online out in the hallway not to mention the people waiting inside that had appointments. Then the receptionist got the nerve to tell me that I have to wait an hour to be seen because they were booked! Most likely would have been waiting longer then 1 hour because there was 15 people ahead of me.

I turned around and walked right out. Got home and made an appointment at another dentistry and got a very hood appointment for 9 am the next day. My advice, don't come to this dentistry unless you have time to waste and want to stand around all day long.

They never answer their phone for whatever reason. in the 9 years I have gone there, I can only remember ONE time(yes once) the phone was answered when I called. The dentists/Endos that are there are nice and has always been good to me for the most part and that’s what keeps this from being a one star review. The front desk is a mess and unorganized. They can be rude to patients as well

I had an appointment today to get both my wisdom tooth extracted and Dr. Andrew Rizhalla , Dr. Peter Lazari and Dental Assistant Lisa H. Was extraordinary!!!! They all deserve ten stars! Lisa eased my fears, adviced me on how to treat my extraction.

Dr Andrew Rizhalla was superb! I did not feel a thing he talked me though everything the whole time I just felt the pulling of the tooth but no pain! Dr. Peter Lazari came into to assist and he was awesome as well! Thanks Dr. Lazari .

The Dentist Dr. Mark is GREAT! He’s good at what he does. It’s the nurses/Dr. ’s that have to set the IV up who don’t know what they’re doing. I was stuck 11 times trying to find a vein. I literally told the Dr.

where my IV’s usually go but she wanted to do her own thing. 1 out of the 11 times I was stuck was an accident because she got distracted, her head was slightly turned and she poked me with the needle. I was bleeding after the poke and she said “Oops that one was an accident”. I signaled to another Dr and asked him for help but he said “she’s ok she knows what she’s doing”. I’m very thankful my procedure went smoothly but I was terrified the whole time.
