South Ocean Dental

First off, I can't say enough good things about how awesome Dr. Rodriguez is or Pearl at the front desk, or her staff. Everyone is absolutely wonderful. My story begins with me eating corn chips and biting down too hard on an unexpectedly hard fried kernal of corn chips. The sharp pain was instantaneous. What came next was weeks of scheduling to see other local dentists that had emergency services available. Now, I don't know if you're like me but I'm on Medical and have CalOptima as my provider, anytime you see a dentist for an emergency appointment, even once they submit the request to the insurance for the procedure there's a 2-5 week window for the insurance to process the request.

This doctor is wonderful she us the embodiment of true patient care. She and her staff are incredible and I hate going to the dentist!! However going to this dentist I walk in smiling and I leave more confident and smiling bigger ????????????

This place is HORRIBLE and I don't know how its rated 5 stars?!? It must be a lie!!! I had 2-3 procedures done and it was the WORST experience of my life!!! I almost had to be taken to the ER!! Dr. Rodriguez was extracting a tooth on me, she wasn't gentle at all!! I could feel everything, especially the needle she inserted to numb me!! She's not gentle at all! Her Receptionist, Samantha is so RUDE and unprofessional!! Again, don't go to this dentist office unless you want to feel beat up!! I was literally sick for 1 week after my visits here!!! PLEASE DON'T GO HERE!!!
