Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Excellent care and service!
My visit was painless. I chose to have Novacane in lieu of sedation with my procedure. I had no discomfort throughout the implant. I highly recommend Dr. Ortega!

A great dentistry with the nicest people.
I have only been there a few times and, if I am honest with myself, I have not taken the best care of my teeth in recent years. The staff there have all been wonderful and there has been no judgment. Everyone is warm and welcoming and it is less stressful because of that warm atmosphere. Plus they play the good tunes over the speaker system.

Best dentist in my 60+ years!
Dr Ortega is friendly and attentive but also a master craftsman. He is a perfectionist but patient, too. Plus his staff is equally friendly and skilled.

He was ready to see me, wasn’t rushed and answered my questions. He did tests no other dentist has ever done. His staff was friendly and courteous. The TV screen to watch sports while he checked my teeth was awesome.

I have been a patient of Dr. Ortega‘s for about three years now. He has performed complex treatments, referred me to excellent specialists, and his hygienists have cleaned my teeth better than any office I’ve been to. I appreciate this that his office is run in a timely and smooth manner! His demeanor is calm, friendly and I am thankful that he “gets in and gets out!” My most recent visit was an emergency, under COVID-19 rules. His staff employed all protocols for safety and a few extra that were explained to me. I felt EXTREMELY comfortable and safe for the two hour treatment. Dr Ortega is amazing. His dental assistant and he work so well together and as much as I dislike dental work, they made the treatment about as comfortable and fast as it could possibly be.

I was being fit for a temporary crown and worked on to get the tooth prepped for the permanent crown, Dr Ortega proceeded to numb the tooth and he is so gentle that he numbs you slowly making sure he doesn’t hurt you . Is so great having Dr Ortega as my dentist.
