Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

We don''''t do medi-cal, but we would be pleased to see daughter in pain. She might be a good candidate for a children''''s dentist (specialist) as well - she could even be put to sleep if her dentistry is complicated and she is very afraid.Call if you need us.Dr. Sacks818-348-2507

I''''m sorry to hear that your daughter is in pain and that to as a result of less than ideal restorations. I am a dentist anesthesiologist, a graduate of Loma Linda University. I would suggest that you call Loma Linda Special care dentistry and schedule an appointment. They accept Medi-Cal and will be able to complete all your daughter''''s work under general anesthesia in one single appointment. the phone number to the hospital operator is 909-558-4000, ask for the special care dentistry extension and off you go... If you have any questions please feel free to contact me directly at Drhuussain@daoncall.com...
