Customer's reviews

I am the biggest baby when it comes to the dentist so when I heard I needed a shot for a procedure I was terrified. But this dental office put ALL my fears to rest. Everyone in the office was so patient, kind and understanding. They went out of their way to make me feel comfortable offering my a blanket, a fan and taking all the time I needed without rushing me once. And the shot I was worried about was literally PAIN FREE. I couldn't feel it AT ALL. I didn't feel a single thing during the procedure. Everyone in that office is so cheerful, funny and SO NICE. I will never go to another dentist EVER again. I have found my dentist for life. If I could give him 100 stars I would. He put up with me being an anxious, nervous wreck and i am forever thankful for him for that. ~ Amy J
So I first heard about Dr. Cortes and his office through a search from my insurance company. I looked up each possible location on yelp and decided on his office due to the high rating and reviews! It has been about a year and a half now since first seeing him and I can confidently say that Dr. Cortes runs his office with the utmost respect and professionalism. All of his staff ranging from his secretary to his assistants provide high quality patient care that makes you feel at home. He is also not afraid to tell you what is wrong or what he suspects might be wrong, something that I had my doubts with my old dentist. He is very flexible in providing treatment options based on your situation and are extremely attentive in communication such as reminding you about appointments and calling back. 10/10 recommend! ~ Robby Y
This past week my elderly mom at 87, was extremely nervous, anxiety regarding pain for her implant surgery. Today her surgery went smooth and painless. Her reaction, WOW that's It?! I worried for nothing, I didn't feel pain. We were beyond ecstatic! Dr. Cortes genuinely focused on her well-being and comfort. He is outstandingly skilled with a gentle touch. Dr. Cortes took his time at the end of the day to call to check on her. Dr. Cortes and the entire staff are honestly caring, professionals with superior customer service! You are always greeted immediately upon entering the office with friendly smiles! They make you feel like family. Everyone here goes above and beyond in patient care and customer service. Thank you so much. You all ROCK!!! ~ F. K
