What Our Patients Think of Us
Bonnie Briggs
I have been waiting to post a review for Gentile Dentistry in Poway until I got to experience a few visits. I must say that I very much like this new ownership and business style. The staff are all very professional, caring and helpful. I have had other dental offices where I felt I was being shuffled from one dentist/staff to another. But not at Gentile Dentistry. They always are friendly and sensitive to my needs. I don’t feel like I'm just one more dental cleaning job on a long list. I highly recommend them and hope others will take a chance to experience Gentile Dentistry for themselves.
Selena Kradolfer
I highly recommend this dental team! I walked in with a dental phobia that had kept me away from dental care for 8yrs. Suffice to say I needed some work. I was in pain, tender and scared. They took care of me while helping me improve my dental hygiene. I’m grateful I was ready and able to follow their advisements. I have come leaps and bounds in the last year!
My dental hygienist is AMAZING. I don’t think I could relax while someone scraped my teeth unless I trusted them as much as I trust Lauren. She is very kind, gentle and friendly. She is attune to me as a person and does a great job!
Kathy at the front desk is so helpful! She has managed my scattered brain and dental phobia with a patience I value. She is great about helping me stay on track with my appointments and understand options for financing each investment in my oral health.
I could go on, but we’d be here a long time. Each of the staff is a shining star and they work well together to ensure quality care and sensitivity to patient needs. I’m beyond impressed and plan to maintain my relationship here. I have even adjusted my dental insurance carrier to make sure I can keep this office as my provider. I recommend for anyone who’s waited little too long and needs people they can trust.
Ashkan Fadaei
My name is Ashkan First of all, I want to thank this dental clinic and its highly respected and extremely professional staff especially their very kind dental assistant dear Pey
and I would like to share a very enjoyable experience in this wonderful dental clinic. I have lived in various countries in Western Europe for many years and visited many excellent dentists, but nowhere has such good and pleasant memories for me.
I want to start with the management and reception, they are very kind and calm, even if your English is not good, you feel very comfortable there and they help you a lot.
And about the doctor and the dentist's assistant dear Pey , they are wonderful, they are very professional in their work, you don't feel any pain at all,
They make you laugh with their sweet language and you forget your pain. They are very kind and personable. They don't let you stress or feel any pain during the process. They take good care of you, I promise.
If you, like me, are afraid of going to the dentist, I definitely suggest you visit this wonderful Dental clinic.
Danial Derakhshidan
I was coming in for a standard cleaning but I had an unbelievable experience. From the Bree and Cassie at the front desk to the hygienist Lauren, they were all extremely kind and professional. Lauren was the one who did my cleaning and it was fantastic. I couldn't even feel any pain at all and it was over before I knew it. Not to mention that my teeth were the cleanest that they have been in a while! Everyone else was also very kind and talented. The dentist himself, Dr. Al Kassey and his assistants were very kind and helpful. Especially Pey, the dental assistant. She had a bright and welcoming smile that just made me feel really comfortable. Overall, I highly recommend this dentistry to anyone who is curious about whether or not they should schedule an appointment.
