PATIENT REVIEWS
Check out what some of our happy patients are saying about us:
★★★★★
I had a dental emergency and was in the worse pain ever. I didn’t know who or where to go especially during this pandemic. I called A+ and the person who spoke with me was so caring and ease my anxiety. A+ took great care of me as soon as possible and throughout the whole process. It was literally painless (considering) when everything was done. A+ was there when I needed them and each person went above and beyond their duty to make me feel comfortable. I’m happy to NOT be in pain anymore.
★★★★★
I’ve been going here for like 4 years and everytime I’ve had a great experience and was taken care of. Doctors Justene and Janice are extremely nice and listen very intently so they can provide you the best service possible. I’ve had a couple of invasive procedures done due to not taking care of my oral hygiene and there was no pain when they had to numb the areas in my mouth! Now, I just regularly go for cleanings and checkups and every hygienist I’ve had also keeps the same level of service as the doctors.
★★★★★
A+ Family Dentistry always makes myself and my kids feel comfortable. They never fail to make us feel welcome. They always make sure to walk us through exactly what’s going on throughout our care, what the cost will be, and what we could do to help or fix issues at home. They’re sensitive to every issue and are always willing to help or navigate each situation.
★★★★★
I have had only good experiences here. I have been coming for three years now. I first found them because they are open on Saturdays for routine appointments and I work in Escondido, making weekday appointments difficult. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming. The hygienists are very knowledgeable and give tips on oral hygiene. While the staff has asked if I was interested in whitening or straightening, I have never received a hard sell. I simply said no thanks and they have not brought it back up. They give me the costs upfront for any treatment so I am never surprised when it’s time to check out. The dentists are caring and careful to make sure I was comfortable when I had to have crowns. I am the type to ask lots of questions about any treatments (why it’s necessary, what I can expect it to resolve, cost, etc.) and check my insurance statements. I have not seen discrepancies that would indicate to me that any of my treatments were unnecessary or that I have been exploited. I have been very happy with the experiences I have had at this dental office and will continue to come in for all my regular cleanings. As a matter of fact, my daughter will be transferred to them as well (from pediatrics).
★★★★★
I’ve been in this dentistry for a few years already, and it’s better than the last dentistry I’ve been to. All the doctors and employees are kind and sweet. They listen and work hard to fix the problems that you have in your teeth. They also encourage their patients to really clean their teeth and throughly explain what could happen if they weren’t to clean it properly.
★★★★★
This dental office obviously knows how to hire staff because from the front door to reception to dental assistants to the Drs Janice and Justine I got wonderful treatment. Procedures were explained in detail, comfort was primary, appointments were scheduled for my convenience, and on and on. I am from Georgia and I had no idea what dentist to call in San Diego and then someone referred me here. For those looking for a great dental office please go to these dental professionals even if you have to drive a few minutes further. You will not regret it
★★★★★
Take it from a very happy patient – A+ Family Dentistry is a total winner and I recommend the staff here to everyone (and their kids and grandkids). Doctors (and sisters) Justene and Janice Doan and Dr. Gary Sigafoos comprise and extremely smart and talented team that excel at their jobs and enjoy what they do. You can trust them and all of their experienced staff to help you maintain a great smile for optimal health. If you like your teeth cleaned and oral health looked after by friendly doctors and staff at the forefront of their respective fields (e.g., Dentistry, Dental Hygiene, Periodontal Medicine) then this is your place. These are hard working people who have extended office hours including Saturdays(to accommodate other hard working people), the prices are fair and reasonable, the diagnosis are clearly explained along with your options for treatment and the staff help you clearly understand your insurance coverage. I have been seeing dentists for over 40 years in many different cities and states across the country, and I have to say A + has the most talented and caring team I have come across, so I will be taking my family here for their care from now on. I am still kind of a new patient – I had lapsed in my dental care for over three years and came in with issues like gum disease that I knew I might be able to do something about if I had the right care. I had a hard time trying to pick a new dentist out of thin air and decided on A+ after reading a few reviews like mine here, so hopefully this helps you. Nearly a year later I know I made a great choice. If you have had a “break” from regular dental care and feel insecure or are unsure about where to go next call A+ Family Dentistry.
★★★★★
Hands down the best dental experience I’ve ever had! All of the staff are super responsive and communicative during the entire process, from setting my first appointment all the way through each step of the procedures/treatments. The office amenities are also awesome, including Netflix, Pandora, and massaging chairs. They even write a welcome message + your name on a little whiteboard in your operatory each time you visit! I’ve visited with Dr. Justene, Dr. Conrad, and the hygienist Kenn, all of whom are amazing at what they do and make you feel comfortable and cared for.
★★★★★
I created a yelp account to detail my experiences with a dentist. While I can’t believe that’s a sentence I’m typing, I feel it necessary to stand up for an incredible staff that was recommended to me recently by a close friend. They are genuine, intelligent, approachable, and open to discussing options. They put an incredible amount of effort towards ensuring you know exactly what will be happening to you before every visit and what has happened to you after every visit. I sat in a chair today being given a local anesthetic via needle. “I’m going to keep my eyes closed while you’re doing all this, so just tell me what to do – I’m pretty bad with needles,” I told the doctor. “I’m also bad with needles,” he laughed. “I’ll close my eyes too.” I guffawed like a crazy man who just discovered Louie C.K. Right before the needle went in (I didn’t feel it – they gave me a numbing cream pre-needle), the assistant next to me noticed me gripping the hand rests and rubbed my shoulder, telling me I was doing great. I felt like my f***in mother was there, and I’m not certain they saw the single tear that went down my not-embarrassed-to-admit face. I want everyone to experience this. Minus the needle, of course. A quick story – my last dentist in San Diego pointed out my receding lower gum line (pretty dramatically – “DID YOU KNOW THAT… … …, etc.”) and wrote me a referral to a periodontist, recommending skin grafts over every tooth. To put it simply, I spent the next five minutes asking if this was another first world problem to add to the list that I was falling for or something that would actually impact my life. I never got a clear answer. I shredded the referral the next day. Flash forward to El Cajon Blvd., where I’m told that skin grafts absolutely aren’t necessary, unless I continue to brush aggressively for the next couple years, and that I have a unique frenulum that pulls down on my gums when I talk – the fundamental reason behind my receding gums; not $10,000 worth of taking tissue from this part of my mouth and growing it over this part, but a (without insurance!) $200 procedure that anyone fond of preventative medicine would more than consider. Incredible. That said, I must address how the negative reviews lay a pathetic amount of blame on the business. Like it or not, you’re an adult – it’s your responsibility to know how much something is going to cost before getting it done and committing to getting it done. When the conductor f***s up, you can’t blame the symphony – the doctors and their staff have no say whether insurance is or isn’t going to cover something. Have them quote you while you’re there (this takes a literal 3 minutes of waiting), and then make an informed decision. Sign a paper if necessary. The doctors want you to know all of your options. If you walk into a dentist’s office knowing you just need a cleaning, you’re a fool. How many people in this country have perfect teeth and gums? How do you know that you only need a cleaning unless you’re a dentist yourself? If they recommend something, listen. Ask them why they are recommending it – as I did when the dentist recommended a different bite guard. If you don’t want it, tell them firmly you don’t want it. Because they care, they will try to help you out with these things, and may make you feel like they’re pushing recommendations more than others would. If you can’t afford it, tell them you can’t afford it. If they continue to push it after that, feel free to understandably get upset. I guarantee, it won’t happen. I can’t recommend this place enough. If you have the ability to act your age, weigh your options, and decide whether something is necessary for you at the time, go here. I’ll be recommending this office to every one of my friends.

I was having some toothache while in the San Deigo area and found A+ Dentistry. They were so helpful and friendly! The staff there was very understanding and had me seated promptly even though I was an emergency walk-in. I really felt like they cared about the issue I was having with my tooth. The dentist (who was super nice and always smiling) examined my tooth. We discovered I had a hairline fracture (probably from too much crab legs I ate a few days prior). Anyway, they explained the issue and the procedures to help fix the tooth. The dentist was so informative and I can not say how glad and thankful I am that I found A+ Dentistry. Thank you all at A+ Dentistry!! =)
★★★★★
I recently got insurance through my employer and knew I needed serious attention to my teeth as I haven’t been to the dentist in two years. I went to another place in Linda Vista where they stated I needed a deep cleaning, extraction, and an implant… but I would need other work done before my extraction. I thought that was strange so I wanted a second opinion. I received a flyer to A+ Family Dental and I booked a consultation immediately and I met with Dr. Doan. She took x-rays and create a comprehensive plan of what I should do. She reviewed each step of the plan and the reasoning behind each decision. I needed a deep cleaning, an extraction, fillings, and three crowns. Alongside follow up care with my deep cleanings. I know my teeth are in bad shape and I knew I needed additional care so I didn’t feel as if I was being “ripped off” or being taken advantage of. Claudia and one of the male hygienists are great (I forgot your name, sorry!). They are friendly and know how to decrease dental anxiety. Claudia explains each process of the teeth cleaning and makes it into an interactive learning experience rather than feeling like you are being scolded or talked down to. I’ve worked with I believe all four of the doctors and they are great at what they do. The staff is attentive in reminding you of your appointments and your follow up treatment. I would definitely recommend coming here if you have dental anxiety. Their dental chairs have the massage effect and they have a screen that will play Netflix while you are undergoing your procedure. It definitely gives me a little bit of Grey’s Anatomy vibes because you can tell the doctors are very hands-on with their dental assistants (?) and are always explaining different procedures or techniques to them.
★★★★★
THE BEST experience I’ve had in anyyy dental office EVER! The entire staff at A+ family dentistry it is so kind and lovable. When you make an appointment come a day before or you will get a text reminder for your appointment. As soon as you walk in you are greeted with a smile and there is such a welcoming environment. I got x-rays done by Israel Moreno (DA) and Ron (DA) & intraoral photos as well. Dr. Justene explained everything to me so perfectly ! Shes sooooo nice and kind ! I got a filling done by Dr. Janice and Vanessa (DA) assisted her. It is professional work here and I felt a part of every step in the process. I also got a deep cleaning by Berenice and she is bilingual which helped me as well since I speak both English and Spanish! Overall my experience was perfect !! I even got a goody bag and mouth washes to take home !! They were able to do all this in one day and I will be back tomorrow for more work !!! I’m excited to come back
★★★★★
I dont usually write reviews but i had to and i hate the dentist. I had a bad experience from the past dentist i had went to so i kinda stayed away, a year later a co worker of mines had reccomended me to A+ Family Dentistry and i had such a wonderful experience with there team. Everyone in this building is extremely friendly and helpful, the staff is very caring and also funny which makes you feel ok when the needle goes in. They are very professional and always keeping me updated with my appointments, They even text you and reply which is pretty cool. i went in recently for a clean and check up, i had came back again to change all my metals fillings and also got my teeth whitning from kimberly. Overall i give this place 5 STARS because they deserve it, Thank you Dr Justene and Dr Janice and the team.
★★★★★
Not enough kind words to say about this place! First of all, the customer service is absolutely wonderful. I am insured under my father & for some reason, my coverage wasn’t updated. A+ Family Dentistry were not only patient during this process but even helped reach out to the insurance to get everything sorted out for me! Scheduling is always easy & they make sure to remind you of every appointment. They also spend time with you to finalize what the best payment options are (for those that are not insured) & it’s refreshing not to be forced into services & hidden fees. Second, the dentists & assistants do a tremendous job. I got a crown redone & all 4 wisdom teeth taken out in the same day, without being put to sleep. The procedure itself went smooth & the pain was so minimal afterwards that I only needed to take the prescribed pain meds for 2 days! They also talk you through the entire process so you know exactly what is going on & why; or you could kick back & take advantage of the Netflix they set up for you (how cool, I know right!) Lastly, I want to add that personality goes a long way. From beginning to end, A+ Family Dentistry has been nothing less than pleasant. The owners make sure to meet you at least once, the front desk is always prompt & friendly, & they even set you up with a personalized welcome sign with each visit! Nowadays it is hard to find businesses that prioritize customer satisfaction first so this location comes at a high recommendation 🙂
★★★★★
Not really sure about all these terrible reviews, but I have had good experiences. I was very dentally irresponsible the last few years and let what could have been a small issue turn into something very serious (abscess, infection, huge huge cavity, aches, swelling etc.). Upon my first appointment, I do not believe they were BS-ing me, as the dental assistant explained each one of my X-rays and showed me where my problems were, even before the Dr. came in to start. He was so friendly and patient and answered all of my questions and when the Dr. came in, it was the same. I had already known my issue was serious before I even went to the dentist and I was glad that they didn’t seem to judge or scold me for not coming in sooner. I pretty much assumed going in that I’d need a root canal, and they confirmed that was the case. Actually, that’s what I wanted done anyways once I knew how bad I’d let it get. After doing research, I don’t believe their cost was any more expensive than any other root canal and additional cavity treatments. Everyone there is so friendly and they clearly explained everything and made sure I understood what was going to happen and approved it first. So far, after three appointments, they haven’t tried to upsell me or anything. They always start quickly and get me in and out in a timely manner. I will keep in mind the upsell warnings from other reviews, but so far I am very pleased with A+.
★★★★★
A+ is the BEST dental office I’ve ever been to, from the staff up front to everyone behind the scenes. Dr’s Justene and Janice show genuine care about your situation and speak with you face to face about your concerns & needs, taking notes and conducting a detailed survey from the very start. I have met with practically everyone that works here (srsly like 15 ppl or more, b/c I had serious teeth issues) and EVERY professional here gave me care and advice I’ve never had before, real A+ service, the name is fitting. My hygienist Princess is the best and takes her time with my dental care, just like everyone else here. The vibe in this office is soooo chill and welcoming too! Love this place and recommend it 1000%!!
★★★★★
I was sad to see so many bad reviews here because I had such an amazing experience at this location! I had a few fillings at my other dentist last month, and one of the teeth was in an incredible amount of pain that nothing would relieve; ice, Orajel, ibuprofen, Vicodin, and even the numbing shots the dentist put into my gum weren’t taking away the pain and it was the most unbearable pain I’ve ever dealt with. Upon going back, my dentist explained to me that the filling was so deep that it was affecting the nerve and that I would need an emergency root canal, something that he did not perform at his office. So I went home and went through a list of the dentists in my insurance network, and was getting increasingly more frustrated as it was a Saturday and all of the dentists were either closed, or not able to schedule me at such a short notice. Finally, I called A+ Dentistry, and although they were completely booked up for the day, they were able to fit me in after I explained to them how much pain I was in. They were so pleasant and welcoming, and stayed late after hours to do my root canal so that I wouldn’t have to deal with the pain anymore. I can’t say enough about how kind and understanding everyone in the office was, and how much I appreciate them creating time for me. As far as the complaints about cost… the root canal was a little under $1300.00, which is obviously expensive, however it is not affecting my review because I assume it’s around the same price as this procedure at any other dental location. And as for people getting upset about extra services and costs being suggested to them…. any business, whether dental or other, is going to try to upsell as their goal is to make money. All you have to do is say No Thank You!
★★★★★
I really enjoy coming to my dentist appointments. Which is probably not normal. Haha, but the staff is super helpful, friendly and great. They really want to help you in any way they can to make sure you are in good health and of course your teeth as well. They have educated me so much on the importance of taking care of my teeth and my oral health. My Hygienist Claudia, is such a wonderful person to work with. Major shout out to you! She is really passionate and professional about her patients oral health. Easy to talk to, helpful to answer any questions you have on taking better care of your teeth. When I shouldn’t even be laughing, while she’s working in my mouth, she finds a way to make me laugh, or at least smile. Thank you A+ Family Dentistry for all your help! I highly recommend coming in to get your oral health in shape!
★★★★★
I needed alot of work done, i havent been to the dentist in like 12 years and honestly this place makes me feel right at home. It makes me question why anyone fears the dentist. Claudia did an excellent job doing the deep cleanings where she really took the time to explain and show me everything she see’s and explained to me exactly how i should be brushing and flossing that have really made an impact on my habits at home. Her bubbley fun personality distracts me from everything she needs to do where i feel no pain at all even when she thinks or says i should feel somthing i dont. Next i got cavitys filled by Dr Doan, her and her sister are a amazing to where they really take the time to make sure you fully understand what all of your options are even outside options. Getting my cavitys filled was really quick with how many i had and the worst part was the numbing after i left the office, they do such a great job that i had no discomfort during or after. After all that i got my wisdom teeth taken out by Dr Reyes, this was the one thing i was worried about and honestly i wish i would have done this years ago because i had no pain during the procedure and only felt sore for a few days after. Also if you get lucky and have the dental assistant named ron there he honestly makes a world of difference, he is the guy that really understands how to bridge that gap between you and the doctor and makes your wants and needs known to everyone and really looks out for the people he is taking care of. Lastly havent seen anyone say this in reviews but they should because the front office staff is amazing! The front receptionist remembers every single person that comes in the office and checks u in without you even having to say a word and she really is warm and welcoming. And because i dont have insurance goli and Daniel really work with you from every single angle you can think of to get everything you need paid for in the time frame and the manner you want to pay for it do able. No one wants to talk about money or paying for things so they have a tough job but with this staff working with you in every way possible it makes all of this simple. Also if any of you are like me and life gets busy and you forget your appointments easily they call you the day before and send you a text and are very responsive to your scheduling needs ( Claudia was even willing to give up her normal lunch break to schedule me in) shes way to nice but i just picked a different day so she didnt have to do that. So with all that said i honestly i feel so lucky i found this place! And would tell everyone who needs a dentist to go there! ( also if u have a dentist ditch them and come to this one because they are better)
★★★★★
Hands down one of the best experiences I’ve had at a dentist office. The assistants, receptionists and Dr. Justene were extremely friendly, answering all my questions and effortlessly teaching me about my teeth, dental hygiene and giving me a full for of their office. I came in for the $99 first patient special which included an exam, cleaning and x-rays. The staff was more than willing to work with me on the amount I could pay and the work that needed to be done. I felt comfortable, relaxed and right at home. The appointment far exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend! You will be so glad you chose A+ Family Dentistry
★★★★★
I decided to visit the dentist this time around for cosmetic purposes, I do a pretty good job with maintaining healthy gums and such but I never really got a chance to voice my desire for a perfect smile in the past. I carefully selected this office in particular because they are up to date with their dentistry and use only the best materials (I have been promised white fillings in the past by other dentists but received metal ones instead, was very disappointed) A friend recommend this place so I gave it a shot. I finally feel that my wish is coming true, the doctors helped me create a plan for my teeth to achieve the best possible smile. I had two doctors go over my options with me, I they even had a third give his opinion. Now, although my teeth are not straight and white just yet, I find myself smiling a lot more and its really awesome to have that kind of confidence. Thank you!
★★★★★
This dentistry is AMAZING! My hygienist, Princess, did such a great job and was very thorough. She made me so comfortable and explained everything she was doing as we went along. I learned a lot about my dental health as well as got my teeth shiny and clean. I highly recommend this establishment to anyone looking for a dentistry in San Diego.
★★★★★
This place is absolutely wonderful. The staff are extremely friendly and the quality of work is as professional as it gets. If anything, they have definitely set the bar of expectations I have for any other dental service. I initially came in for a dental cleaning ( that I haven’t had in 4+ years since I’m lazy as hell ). There was no judgement, and if anything we giggled about my honesty. Since I hadn’t had a checkup in so long, I also had to get a deep cleaning. I can’t say any dental experience is “great”, but this experience tried to make it as great as it could be. It has my full support and recommendation. At the very least, give them a shot and you can make your own assessment. Huuuuge shout out to Princess, for informatively walking me through the procedure, taking her time to make sure I was comfortable, and all-around beautiful friendliness. Also, shout out to Goli for working with me financially. I appreciate the patience and understanding.
★★★★★
I have had the same dentist for 25 years but recently made a change to A+ Family Dentist. Very friendly staff, explained procedures far better than I have ever experienced from my prior dental practice. Plus the facility is modern and staff is well organized. Never to pushy on cosmetic dentistry that I am not interested in at this time. I hope to have a long dental relationship withA+. Thanks!
★★★★★
I hadn’t been to the dentist in about 8 years and I was afraid of what they;d find! Dr, Doan made me feel comfortable and the whole process was painless! She recommended an exact plan for me that included the perfect treatment. She also recommended hygene care and Beth, the Hygenist, was fantastic! My teeth and gums have never felt cleaner and I KNOW that they’re so much healthier! The office staff was super friendly. The office is very clean with state of the art equipment. Oversall it was a great experience and surprisingly I’m looking forard to coming back and continuing to take care of my teeth. DEFINITELY give them 5 stars!
★★★★★
The new location is awesome! The office is super clean and roomy. The staff are all so welcoming and helpful. Everyone is super nice and always greeting me with a smile. They all check up on me after I had oral surgery done. I’m the type of person who is afraid of dentist and needles. They reassure me that everything is going to be fine and I’ll be okay. They let me know every single step that they were doing and let me ask questions. They are all very professional and just like a family. They remember my own family and always asking about them and how things are going. Love this place and have been recommending it to family and friends.
★★★★★
Like many people, I dread going to the dentist each and every time. However it is an absolute necessity and I recommend going to A Plus Family Dentistry if you are in the area. They are very professional, knowledgeable and courteous. You never know what they will find when they start probing around but at the least you can depend on the doctors and staff for consistently excellent service. They utilize the latest technology in the industry to make the experience as painless as possible. Don’t take my word for it, check it out for yourself! You won’t be disappointed.
★★★★★
So first off let me tell you a bit about myself. I have not gone to the dentist in a while, like a long while. Mainly because of two big factors, time and let’s be honest they tend to cost a lot of money. Money that during a pandemic would be better spent elsewhere (bills..food..etc.). Secondly, I always felt like going to the dentist was the equivalent of trying to buy a car at the dealership. I was always afraid of being pressured into doing procedures that I wasn’t even sure that I needed just so that can reach into my wallet. From when I first set up my initial appointment to now. I have had nothing but great service and friendliness. A+ family really takes the time to make sure you know what is going on in your mouth and leave the decisions to you on how you wish to proceed (if you do). Absolutely no pressure service. Together we created a dental plan that would fit my pocket book and they clearly explained, in detail, step by step process of what we will do to get me back on track to healthier teeth and gums. I did have some misunderstanding on my part of the dental plan, however through a quick phone call this was easily cleared up. From the front staff who welcomes you with a smile, to friendly billing, yes I said friendly, and all the above, everyone is wonderful there and I actually feel like people care about you at A+ Family. I would just say give them a try and experience this amazing service and care for yourselves. A few people I need to say by name for their exceptional care and love for the clients are Ron and Princess. I love you guys and thank you for the laughs and fantastic dental care. I feel safe in your hands. Literally. For a guy who didn’t have great past experiences with dentists. I definitely cannot wait to go back to A+ Family. And will continue my dental care with them moving forward.
★★★★★
I’ve been a patient here ever since I came to San Diego and they have really helped me maintain healthy teeth and gums which EVERYONE wants. The staff have always been great from the front desk, to the hygienists, to the staff dentists and the owners. They remember you and make the entire process painless. If you want a place that will invest in your oral health and give you every resource you need for the best teeth you’ve ever had give them a call and make an appointment.
★★★★★
I’ve had “bad” teeth most of my life, have undergone lots of painful procedures over the years and was terrified of the dentist… until I found A+. Their staff was friendly, patient and beyond accommodating of my needs. They explained everything, checked on my progress and I’m proud to say that after a year or so, I’m cavity free for the first time since I was a teenager. I can’t say enough good things about Drs. Janet and Janice and Princess is an amazing hygienist. Very highly recommended.

So with all that said i honestly i feel so lucky i found this place! And would tell everyone who needs a dentist to go there! ( also if u have a dentist ditch them and come to this one because they are better)

I had my wisdom teeth removed here and I can honestly say I had a great experience! It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but this is an awesome dentist! On the inside it is a great, relaxed, professional clean environment, filled with wonderful people. I have no insurance and just moved from LA to San Diego, so I had to find a new dentist. Literally the first thing I did after moving to San Diego was have my wisdom teeth removed, as I had been having problems for months, so it was a very pressing thing for me to find a good dentist. I did a lot of research and this was honestly the only place I considered getting my wisdom teeth removed at. Loads of other dentists told me I’d have to go to a specific oral surgeon, were booked literally months in advance or quoted me prices which were literally triple the price of here. A+ Family Dentistry immediately told me they could remove my wisdom teeth. I had an initial appointment and then they booked me in. The overall cost, without insurance, was under $2000. I had all four wisdom teeth removed, and while the experience wasn’t pleasant – duh, it was my wisdom teeth being removed – I think it was as pleasant as I could have hoped. EVERYONE HERE IS FRIENDLY, from the receptionists – they’re literally all lovely! – to the dentists and nurses. There’s nice touches like they write your name on a chalk board saying “welcome” in the cubicle you’re in. Throughout the experience of having my wisdom teeth removed I felt safe and supported. They also let my partner sit in the room with me while my teeth were removed which was really nice. The results from the process were perfect, I couldn’t have asked for better to be honest. The healing was quick and I would highly recommend this as a location to have wisdom teeth removed. The icing on the cake was how caring they were after my operation: the next day, I got a call from a receptionist checking in on me, and the day after that the dentist who had removed my teeth himself called me to check in. I also just want to say: I’ve now had three appointments here and I’ve never been kept waiting. Big bonus points!

My visit was excellent as usual. A+ family staff is always so warm and welcoming each time I come in for service. This paired with their exceptional dental treatment and care makes me a happy client. As long as I am in San Diego it will be the only dental care provider for me and my family.

I’ve been going to A+ Family Dentistry for several years now. Every time I go, I’m always impressed by their incredible service and clean offices. Every hygienist and dentist I’ve seen here is very accommodating and knowledgeable, and is always happy to answer questions or help make you more comfortable. I never get stressed going there, but I really appreciate that they have options for patients who are more sensitive. This office isn’t the cheapest, but they take many forms of dental insurance and their services are well worth it. I highly recommend A+!

I just want to say how impressed I was overall with this office. From the moment I dialed to call and schedule an appointment they were extremely helpful and kind. Also got me in pretty quickly because I was having pain with a couple teeth. The front office, dental assistants, hygienists and most of all the Doctors were beyond amazing. Such a welcoming place. I was always afraid of going to the dentist and haven’t gone in a while due to pain and discomfort but honestly I have yet to experience that here. They also have great hours for someone who works a Monday through Friday 7-4 job. Love that they are open on Saturdays and have a couple late days. All the good reviews speak for themselves and I’m glad I found this place. Dental work obviously isn’t cheap and this place was the best quote I have been given. They also try and work with you to make it financially fit your life. Thank you all, especially Guly, Kimberly, Princess, Dr. Janice, Dr. Justene, Liz and anyone whose name I have missed (sorry). I look forward to my next appointment. I would highly recommend them to all of you! I’m going to miss you when I move! 🙁
