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.

Improper tooling and quick to suggest surgery
I had a very disappointing experience with Dr. Maria Rodriguez at South Bay Prosthodontics due to improper tooling and technique in attempting to remove an implant abutment. Ultimately, their recommendation was to remove the entire implant surgically--something that proved unnecessary after I sought a second opinion whom successfully removed the abutment because he ordered the correct tooling first.Why South Bay Prosthodontics would proceed without proper tooling suggests lack of experience with the implant system and poor judgment to proceed without first checking with the system manufacturer.

I am cancer survivor and long time patient of Dr. Marie Rodrigues. And I'm writing this letter with my sincere thanks for the wonderful care I have received by Dr. Rodriguez and her staff. I remember the first time I met Dr. Rodriguez she was so compassionate and professional as she reviewed my medical history and clearly explained the course of my treatment. Her encouragement and care I received has given me back my life.
