Very good experience today! Only waited about 10-15 minutes to be seen. The dentist was very nice and quick as he checked my gum size pockets. Karina was also very informative on this new treatment for a deep cleaning. Her and I talked for a while about that, the payments for it, and other stuff. She was very nice, personable, professionally, and funny. I got a teeth cleaning on this day which was very quick and efficient. Overall, a very good experience at western dental.

Very good work and fast once you get inside a room. The wait to get back there is taxing at best but the service makes it worth the while. Nice friendly people from the hygienists, to the dental assistants, onto the dentists themselves. Very friendly and professional. Good work too!

Great friendly staff but if your expecting to be seen at the time of your appointment then don’t come here . Went in at 10 am for an appointment and got out at 1 pm. Mostly I was just sitting there waiting to be seen. Doctor seems to be all over the place and overbooked . They don’t care about your time . If your like me and have things going on in your daily life this place will just waste it .

To begin, they had mentioned that prior to my appointment they would call me to make sure my insurance covered the first exam and to confirm my appointment for Friday at 11. Come Friday at 11, no one had called me so I reached out to them, they apologized and said I can reschedule for a later time that same day but that I needed to know that the wait would be about two hours. I told her I didn’t wanna wait that long and if we could just reschedule for another day, she said 8:30 AM on Saturday so I agreed. I show up and I’m given paperwork to fill out, then another person approaches and the girl in the front desk tell him that they are very understaffed and there’s going to be a wait, also, that they might not even be able to complete his full service so when he finally walked out, I asked her if that applies to me as well. She said yes. I I expressed how I feel that’s very unprofessional and unorganized on their part, they should be telling people prior to scheduling the appointment that they are understaffed and their appointment doesn’t guarantee full service. That gives us the opportunity to decide whether we want to go or not. Also that they should not be scheduling appointments with people if they’re not going to be able to service them 100%, I have never heard of that from another dentist in my life. I took my paperwork and copy of my ID back and canceled the appointment. Needless to say I will not be going back. Should have listened to the Yelp reviews.

I love going to this dentist office because everyone is so nice and professional. Every time I come here I am greeted with warm smiles and you can tell that they truly care about you. Connie in particular is always very inviting and makes you feel like you are not just another place in a crowd. I honestly couldn’t have chosen a better dentist office!

Everybody is very respectful. I can see that they are sanitizing the seats whenever they are finished with their dental. People are so generous. It’s hard to kinda wait 1-2 hours, but that’s because one doctor isn’t easy. They have to go through patients which is understandable.

If they had an option for 0 stars that’s what I would chose! I’m very unpleased with their service. They lost my impressions and sent me someone else’s, gross. Also I was making monthly payments for services that were not rendered. Not to mention the 2 hour wait time. Western Dental sucks!

Honestly worst dentist office I have ever been to. I don’t normally write reviews but my experience here was so negative that I just had to.Had my first appointment here 2 weeks ago. Waited almost two hours to be seen and once they finally sat me in a room they told me I had to reschedule because they were out of time?I rescheduled and went back today, only to wait 2 hours to be seen again. Once I was finally seen the dr performed a 2 minute exam and told me to schedule ANOTHER appointment for a cleaning when I had originally scheduled a cleaning with my exam.I understand places are understaffed because of covid but this is just so unacceptable. They dont respect appointments at all.I will be switching to another dentist office.

I looked at so many dentists . After 7 years of no dentists I obviously had much work needed and this dentist was amazing. First day I went in I got papers work done, X-rays, and they started to do my fillings right away! I was actually shocked how fast and efficient they worked. My husband is next to come here . Everyone is so friendly too !

They Are AMAZING !!I am so grateful for how attentive to detail and excited to go above and beyond :)Thank you Chula Vista Western Dental !

I have an appointment at 2:30 and when I arrived they told me it would be a 40 minutes wait because the dentist were in lunch . what is the point of appointments then ? You better come with time.

Today I had great service with the exception of the wait time. They did let me know upon my arrival that they were running behind.

They give you an appointment and you still have to wait three hours ridiculous

Great service. Took me in same day emergency appointment and have no complaints. Great dentist.

Very nice. Usually quick service. But due to the pandemic they’ve been a little slow.I still recommend 👍

Scheduled an appointment to replace my permanent retainer. Upon arriving to my appointment and stating my name and appointment time, the receptionist says To replace a permanent retainer? so they knew that this was what I was there for when I scheduled the appointment. I was then told that they dont do that there or any of their locations! And while the receptionist was not overtly rude, she was very unsympathetic.

The surgeon and the clinical staff in the back are greatThere is a new girl in the front that needs better training, while explaining my appointment today she said sign here its for the sedation and stuff like thatfor a patient who is already scared and nervous a better explanation is needed and if she is unsure what to say then a senior front desk person should step in, the girl who is normally upfront is great but again im not happy with the new young lady who checked me in and it makes the office look bad

The worst practice ever!My teenage son was sent home with an uncapped root canal and scheduled for a next appointment 6 months later to have it crowned.When i questioned the integrity of the tooth and if it was safe to wait 6 months to have it crowned without the tooth breaking they said yes and that they did not have a sooner appointment due to them being understaffed.Fastforward my sons tooth is now broken as i assumed it would be and he is in pain.Our appointment was at 11:30a..it is now 12:40pand we havent been seen by anyway..still waiting.This is typical of this office.Waiting time of an hour to an hour and a half and incompetent argumentative staff who constantly make scheduling mistakes and deflect responsibility onto the patient.Not ok.I will be reaching out to my insurance company immediately.The definitely need to be audited.

Patty R did my dental X rays. I had a great experience and western dental! Thank you patty R.

Just want to give Connie a 5 stars for the service I had with her on 12/2/20. Very helpful, not only her, everybody that I dealt with in the past our very pleasant to deal with. High five to all the Western Dental staff at Broadway branch.

I had a great experience today when I went to my dental appointment to have my braces tighten. My appointment was at 5pm but I received a call to see if I was able to come at 9am. This was prefect and the service was great and in a timely manner!

Lily did a great job taking care of me with my temp dental crown and looking forward to getting treated again for the permanent

Somebody suggest this place for me, I was looking a good place to get my braces and OMG!!! Everyone here provides great costumer service and very friendly service. I’m so happy with the job they did and also for the help that they provide for me. I was nervous 😬 but they helped me out. They are amazing 🤩 thank you all of you guys!! Also the Dic is really nice. (P.s you guys are doing a excellent job, costumers that they get mad for the wait, seriously 😒 stop being a azz, they are trying their best to go quick as they can)

Erika was AWESOME to work with! She was kind, gentle, very communicative and patient. Thanks, Beautiful!!

Erika helped me with my teeth treatment and is also really nice to me. She speaks Spanish and English.

Connie has been helping me with receiving my new dentures. She is so professional and friendly. She makes me feel so comfortable and relaxed. I am so happy to be her client.

Treat you so well, totally recommend this place

Great first time impression with staff at the western dental in the chela vista location. Connie help my whole family’s 5 today got us in and out with a nice clean smile. Thanks guys! Especially Connie! She was very helpful!

This office is great, the staff are very patient and kind. The dentist and X-ray techs are gentle and professional. My first time there and I’m glad to travel a bit of a distance for the great experience.

Very great experience all around & the work is top notch. Very skilled dentists & assistants

Walked in hoping to come out ok but instead I came out worse and with an infection currently on my way to Tijuana so they can take care of it. Doc at WD suggested I get the tooth that’s hurting filed down since it was pinching on my nerve but then he said he recommend a root canal I asked him to just do the root canal since I was going to need that performed on me regardless. He denied my request. When I asked for a prescription they gave me Tylenol with codeine 30 MG but they’re not doing anything besides making my face inflamed. (DON’T COME HERE)

Honestly, Ive been to other Western Dentals at different locations in the past and didnt have the greatest experience so I was hesitant at first but once I got there and got examined I was relieved, the staff is very friendly, personable and were very informative when it came to the procedures I have to get done.

Very expensive even with insurance careful with your bills. I learned the hard way. Make sure u ask for your total in paper break down and ask how much insurance covers go home call your insurance make sure. I didn’t do that and year later I was reviewing my policy saw stuff covered that ended up paying for. Definitely don’t get braces here. Cheaper to pay cash then with insurance for braces. I would definitely not recommend for kids at all even adults honestly. Front desk is nice but it’s not worth over paying

Ofelia is very good with my kids. Orthro side

Doctor areola Ericka lily & ConnieReally good service and fast 👌🏼!

Fast workers, very nice people! :)

Lilly was very nice and patient with me👍

Very fast service! Miss Connie was so sweet!!i was able to get everything done in one trip! :)

This day was excellent. Good quick service.

Bad customer service, bad Doctors, westing time

I have been to many dentist in all my years and Lily is as professional as they get. She is dedicated to perfection as well as letting patients feel they deserve the best. Lily is the best. Thank you for making me feel important and for changing my smile. I wish you greatness.It is never exciting to go to the dentist, but Connie had a way of making it a very pleasant experience for me. Connie is a people person and truly cares how one feels as they are being cared for. I personally can tell Connie loves what she does. I wish you happiness.

This place just sucks. Simple as that.

Every Person I’ve Been Able to Interact With I feel the need to see any time Please. Professionals motherly CONNIE & BACH @ Western Dental Provides Addictive Feel Good Experiences In Addition To All the People who care to share time with me All the way from San Marcos, CALIFORNIA to Chula Vista, CALIFORNIA And Highly Recommend Requesting MORE IN BETWEEN CLEANING CLEANING SUPPORT FOR BETTER CONVERSATIONS PERHAPS 😍🇺🇸🥰🌎🌌

I like that they are kind and always want to do the very best, l want to thank them for all that they have done so far.

I went in today, had the most AMAZING experience with connie! She helped with my cleaning & now my teeth feel amazing! Thanks connie :)

Connie and Lili great customer service.

HORRIBLE experience. They always messed up our appointments. They gave us a quote for 1,000dlls and the day of the surgery it went up to 2,000dlls!! Without any notice at all.Just horrible place and experience

They’re really nice, the lady that helped me, her name was connie she was really nice

Good customer service every time I come in I get treated with excellent customer service thank you all the staffs here . Thanks Melissa and the rest of the staff for all your help .

Patricia CVery awesome and sweet! Very caring of me, making sure I was okay! She is so friendly and really nice! Great at her job! She is very attentive! She and my doctor made coming to the dentist great, which is a plus because i’m not a big fan of the dentist!

Connie : Excellent Service. Very pleasant attitude & always provides positive feedback to any un answered questions. Highly recommend anyone or everyone who doesn’t have western dental to give them a try. Never not once have been dis satisfied with any service, always a warm welcome & pleasant to have excellent service from such superior staff.

Even when i book an appointment they make me wait. Their corporate center overbooks their local sites. I feel bad for the receptionists because they have no power. Its just messy

Connie is always very attentive, nice and professional most importantly. I take my grandma very often to this dentist and she wont let her teach be touched by anyone else other than Connie! Very good employee, and Im sure the rest of the staff is just as great!

Mrs connie is the best doctor ❤2000 >10

Lili was great she was very kind and helpful.they just make the visit so easy. Congratulation to the group of western dental.Totally recommended. They are always in a good mood and they look happy to help I love their customer service. Awesome!!!

My office visit today was extremely pleasant. I was friendly greeted by the front office staff. I was taken to the back office for my examination by assistant Connie. Connie explained the office visit and treatment process while being super professional and kind, she even gave me tea while I waited. I will definitely recommend this office to family and friends.

I dont, like so many others, like going to the dentist. All of the men & women I have dealt with in the last two years have been very kind, patient, caring, & genuinely compassionate. Plus my top denture looks GREAT.

I love the Doctors there theyre very nice and fast...

I went here for my 6-month cleaning and exam because my insurance covered me here. The service there was alright but I was asked to come back another day for an orthodontics evaluation. I was at this location for that appointment but when I arrived, their computers were down so I went home and told them we would reschedule. The next morning, their call center started war dialing me. The first time I answered I told them I was busy because I was out and would call them back to reschedule. Two minutes after hanging up from that call, they are calling me again. It was someone else from their call center who had no idea that they just called. This happened nine times in an hour, with me answering most calls and telling them to stop calling. They didnt listen. This borders on criminal harassment. I had to block their number to keep from having to file a police report against these insane people. I will never go back to this place, ever!

I had a very great experience because of lili

Usually I’m not very fond of going to the dentist, but my experience here was great! Patty R. is a great X-ray technician and Dr. C. and her assistant Patty C. were very friendly and helped alleviate my dental anxiety. Overall speedy, painless, and pleasant service from an excellent staff.

Erika was awesome. I was nervous about coming in at first but Erika made me feel comfortable and shes super nice! I would recommend anyone who comes in to ask for Erika.

The receptionist was nice. I did everything via the website yet I still had to do all the paperwork again and still have them check my insurance till Monday. Still waiting. But Jesus who took all the x-rays was awesome. Great customer service! Great job Jesus.

I needed extensive restoration that took many months to complete. I have very high anxiety about the dentist and from the beginning Patricia C and Dr Cataquiz were very understanding and accommodating. The work they have done is beyond my expectations. They explain what is happening and take pain management very seriously. They are relaxed and easy going even funny sometimes. I am so happy with the way my new smile is coming along. Without the extra hard work of these two wonderful women I would have had to get a full set of dentures. That was something I absolutely did not want and they made it happen. They went above and beyond. Thank you Western Dental. Liz was also amazing! She took her time and made sure everything was comfortable, aesthetic, and properly fitting. I was very happy with her work.

Reyna has always greeted us with a wonderful smile each and every time we walk in for my sons Ortho checkup. She has such a pleasant personality and is always helpful in every way. Thank you Reyna for your great professionalism in customer care!The Bennett Family

Other then the ridiculous wait for a 15 min procedureI am very pleased

Been going to this place for years. Everyone is always pleasant and nice, Dr. and staff. Came here one time when it was busy and was told by one of the girls upfront that it was going to be a long wait and allowed me to reschedule - & I appreciated that because I didnt have to sit and wait. Patty R. was so sweet assisting my son with his xray.

Patricia C. My trip to Western Dental was fun and adventurous as I am still here writing this review. The dental assistant Patricia was very kind and explained in detail each phase of these procedures. I really just want some white teeth for a better, confident smile. I left with a whitening kit in about a hour!

Patty r. she was very nice and sweet. She made me feel safe and loved. She’s a very good doctor. I really like her.

Patty R., took my x-rays, was very kind and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the process. Very kind and definitely hope she helps me again. Would recommend this office to a friend.

Erika has served me well during my visit at Western Dental! Nothing complicated nor far-fetched. She respects me well during my time here. Id recommend her if you ever have the chance to see her :).

Lily Llamas was very helpful throughout the whole visit! She made you feel comfortable and answered any questions you had. Definitely recommend her.

Patty R. - what an amazing experience!! SO so sweet and kind...and fast!!! She took all xray and computer photos in the time it took my old dentists tech to take ONE! I am not exaggerating. An overall happy employee and dental tech! Thank you!!

The best dental appointment Ive had in years. Dental assistant Lily made me feel at ease and was very informative and patient with my questions. I felt comfortable in a very painful time.

Patty R helped me this morning with my xrays and she was super gentle and caring. My mouth is very sore and she made sure to see that I was feeling okay. Also she was very friendly and nice. I would definitely recommend coming here, they are very helpful and friendly. Thank you Patty for being amazing today!Jen

Total waste of time. I tried to schedule online first, but instead of that going through I just got spammed with 3 emails per day telling me thanks for requesting an appointment we will confirm within 24 hours. The emails continued for 2 weeks even after calling to book the appointment.The day before my appointment I received a call from the office stating that they could not do my appointment at the scheduled time (1:30pm) because the last appointment of the day is at 1. The appointment was booked by a person and their website shows they are open until 4:30pm so I dont understand why I was not informed of this before. I was told that my appointment would need to be at 10:30 instead so I had to rearrange my day to accommodate them. Just to be on the safe side since this was my first appointment with them I asked if I needed to bring anything or if they needed anything before my appointment. That is when they needed my insurance information so that they could verify everything before my appointment. Again I had to stop my work so I could get them this information and if I hadnt asked about they wouldnt have.The day of my appointment I got there early. I was asked to fill out paperwork and again provide me insurance information. After filling out 5 pages of information they requested they called my name. When I got to the desk the lady informed me that they could not verify my insurance because that office was not open on Saturdays. I informed her that is why I gave the information to them on Friday with plenty of time to verify. She said I would need to reschedule. She could not answer why it was not done when it was supposed to.In the end I rearranged things for this place 3 times to accommodate them. I will not do it a fourth time. After 2 weeks of waiting I will not even be going for a first official appointment with them. They would probably just ask me to reschedule it even if I did.

Jesus helped me out today and he was very excellent with his service. Hopefully hes here next time I come back for my next x-rays. Awesome work by him.

The staff are supper nice!Definitely improving on there customer service! Great work there used to be a wait but not so much anymore. Can’t say enough how wonderful the staff are! The first time where there was not a stick shoved on the roof of my mouth nor down my throat when taking my teeth X-ray! The staff was extremely gentle through out the entire visit! Jesus and Patricia where the best hopefully everyone gets them!

I will NEVER GO THERE AGAIN! I understand that you have to wait due to the pandemic but I was there before 6 people. I was seeing one specific dentist. I was told several times I was next, i was next, again i was next. I waited 4 hrs before seen. When the previous patient that the dentist was seeing wasnt complicated at all. My appt was at 10am. I was there early. I was not seen till 2pm really 4 hrs!? Then I was walked in to wait another 35 minutes in the chair!? I kept on asking is he ready!? I have been waiting to long. So I got up and walked to the front desk. To find MY DENTIST flirting and chatting with the receptionist. How unprofessional! In front of him I told the receptionist to cancel my appt and dont charge my insurance because its the dentist fault that Im leaving not my fault. I will complaint to BBB. The place was dirty too where I was sitting in the room. So bad. People can get infected. Osha needs to get involve. The worst place ever. Thank god I didnt take my son to get braces there. Check it out for yourself before making appts please.

I always have a wonderful experience at this dental office! The staff is super friendly! The Dentist its super nice and she does wonderful work! Never had an issue!

I took my son to get braces back in April of 2019. They had a special going where you get a $2500 credit for getting it done that month of April. They keep giving us the run around and still have not given us the credit. All they give us is excuses, from the check is in the mail, or the manager lost the files, to corporate is still processing the check. I will never give Western Dental my business again!

I am grateful to have been in the wonderful care of Lily Llamas hands. Her energy put me at ease right away, is detail oriented in her work, patient, and a pleasure to meet!

Lily the x ray tech was fantastic! She was gentle and kind and was personable. I recommend coming here to get your dental work done!

First experience ever having a dentist appointment. I was nervous to go at first, but not anymore. The employees at the front fest were very pleasant and I had a dentist named Jesus who was very friendly and helped me feel at ease.i will be back soon.

Sweetest & the most patient Lilly is very gentle

Very great service here at Western Dental. Waiting time was not as long as I expected it to be, and I’m definitely a happy customer. Thanks to the dentist who attended me whose name is also Jesus!

They Do a wonderful job, very nice staff, but the Waiting Time Definitely needs to be worked on or they need more Dentists. Because things do come up on both sides and I truly believe they Need more staff so paitents don’t have to wait for so long. Besides that do a great job.

Giving one star is being generous.The 1st time I went in, it was my husband, my sister and I.Automatically trying to check in, they didn’t want to.” We only see 2 family members at a time”. Ok fine, I don’t know my sister, right ? How simple is that ?“We can’t see you without your insurance card”Hey I’ve been seen at western dental before ! You should have my card.“We can’t pull up old records”Fine, I won’t be seen. See my husband and my sister. Ok“We can’t see her because it’s past her appointment time”Good god. She has every excuse in the book !Fine, they were both seen. She applied for care credit, my husband didn’t. Guess who got all the treatment right away and whatever needed prior approvals all got done within days. Guess who’s still waiting for the prior authorizations for the same treatment ?I’ve called 5 times trying to get a hold of someone in the office. All sent to their customer 24hr service machine. No answerNot worth your time.

When I first started the service at Western Dental in Chula Vista Ca. I was greeted and with professional receptionist by the Name of Reyna. She has been so professional and compassionate. Especially with my appointment reminders. Not only has she been a employee at Western Dental. But she has seen my journey from crooked teeth to the awesome smile I have today. All staff is Awesome. Friendly. Compassionate and helpful. Thank you ALL for this journey of having a better smile and making me feel comfortable with my smile. Thank you! Reyna you are Awesome. Also a Lady at the western dental Patty R. Was completely patient. Kind a very gentle with me upon my xrays and taking pics of my teeth. Hats off to western dental staff in Chula Vista

I hadn’t been to the dentist in a long time and finally went in. This office is very clean and MOST of the staff is friendly. My first visit went great, I had to see the oral hygienist and she was very gentle and made sure I was comfortable and not in any pain. I rated it 4 stars out of 5 because my consultation didn’t go so great being that the dentist I saw was rude, other than that I love it here.

Patty R... She well welcomed me... felt like I was at home with the well conversation we had... did a great job at doing the X-ray etc.

Dr. Arriola and assisting staff members are all very sweet, knowledgeable, and helpful. I had to have a root canal and crown, but it was a very pain free experience. Im very happy I chose to go to them and highly recommend!

Usually they are quick to attend to my son (ortho) but since all of this is going on (pandemic) they dont have many orthodontists. So it was longer than expected but understandable.

I came in for my regular checkup and had exceptional service by the Radiography technician Patty R.. She was super friendly and went out of her way to efficiently take my xrays. On top of that she made me feel welcomed.

Patty R. Was very helpful and nice. Knows what she is doing. Very sweet woman. Wouldnt mind coming back. 😀Connie. Very Nice Woman. Made Me Smile. She Got the job done. Made me feel very comfortable talking through the clean up.Wasnt the normal Dentist visit much faster than usual.

Patty RShe took my x-rays. And she is very awesome and nice. Definitely recommend this office and recommend Patty R

Dr.Arreola and his assistant Liz have been helping me since October for my implant. They are the nicest and the most accommodating! getting me out as fast as possible. Love coming here!

I came in for my check up and X rays. Jesus is an excellent X ray tech and dental assistant. He explains step by step everything he does, which to us patients is comforting.

Patty R was great with me. She was kind and patient with me. I was having trouble with my xray but she was so sweet with me. Great person to be with.

Patty R did a fantastic job taking my x-rays and was extremely nice. Thanks for the great work!
