Lancaster Family Dental
Alan Stott, DDS:
Practice Profile Page

Dr. Stott and his staff are great. I have had several bad experiences with dental visits in my life, and as a result,  I didn’t go to the dentist for almost six years. Finally, I broke down and made appointments for myself, my daughter and my husband. The staff was great with my daughter and she had absolutely no fear of going to the dentist even after she had 4 fillings done. I needed extensive work done. They worked with me in figuring out what was covered by my insurance and what I would have to pay out of pocket. Now, I am able to chew on both sides of my mouth, after not being able to for 6 years because of an old filling that had fallen out and didn’t have insurance to get it fixed. I highly recommend them. Dr. Stott is very thorough and explains everything to you. They are awesome! I’ll never go anywhere else again!

Dr. Stott is amazing! He’s very skilled, extremely gentle, and also very nice. His staff is wonderful and there is no waiting. Your appointment time is the time you get seen. Good dentists and doctors are hard to find in this area but Dr.Stott is really exceptional!

This actually Carmen Johnson, Tony’s wife. I am very glad that I was lucky enough to find Dr. Stott. He is kind, gentle, and explains everything before the procedure is done. I am one of those that is terrified of needles and Dr. Stott did his best to make the experience pain, and stress free. He is also the only dentist I have been to that can give a shot in the mouth and you feel nothing. The staff is friendly and professional which makes a patient feel comfortable. I highly recommend Dr. Stott.

Dr. Stott has been taking care of my wifes (she is high desert born raised) dental needs for 2 decades. When we married and moved to Temecula i couldnt find a local dentist and so i began making the 4 hr round trip to see Dr. Stott. Short story we drive 4 hr round trip because Dr. Stott is the best dentist around and his support staff are always professional, friendly, and helpful. 4 hr round trp 2x a yr….drop mike!!!

I am an employee of Dr. Stott. In response to the negative review by Alex Dorfler below, she is not nor has been a patient in our office. We have no record of her. This is probably a case where a disgruntled ex-employee or a competing dentist asked Miss Dorfler to lie and write a negative review. I am also a patient of Dr. Stott. He is a great dentist and people love him. I see the quality of his work daily. You can’t believe every bad review you see on Google.

I have been with Dr. Stott for many years during my career when I had dental insurance. Now in retirement, I am still with him. Dr. Stott himself provides a type of plan if you have no dental insurance. A low annual payment which includes X-rays, cancer screening and 2 cleanings and 20% off other dental work. Honestly, the best dentist in the Antelope Valley. I have never waited more than 5 minutes to be seen. His staff is caring and professional and his office is pristine. Dr. Stott is exactly who you want in a dentist

For some 3 years I have been having all of my dental work done with Dr. Stott. He and his professional staff have given me a smile that I can be proud of. My wife has been seeing Dr. Stott for over a decade and her smile is one of her most beautiful attributes. And, OH, by the way: did I mention we live in Murrieta Ca. and drive an average of 4 hours round trip to see our dentist. I don’t know why you folks living in Palmdale Lancaster area would go anywhere else…..Enough said!!

Very often, when you read a negative comment about a person on Google, there is more to the story than you think. One person who made a negative comment a few months ago was upset because the office did not offer an in office payment plan and he did not want to pay for treatment rendered (which is customary in most medical and dental offices). The negative comments by AWC3117 do not explain the whole story. The office does not charge exorbitant fees. Their fees for non-insurance patients are actually about 20% off of what the standard fees would be. AWC thought the employees at the font desk were rude and unprofessional. He probably thought that because they asked him to pay for the cost of the exam and x-ray that day and he did not want to. Is it rude to ask for payment as services are rendered? AWC was also upset because when he decided to have the extraction done, the doctor and staff had gone to lunch. He failed to tell you that he first said that he wanted to wait to do the procedure and went to the front desk. It was lunch time and Dr. Stott let the staff go to lunch. Then he decided to have the tooth removed after the staff were at lunch. The patient also complained that he was charged less in another office for the extraction. There are different fees for extractions based on the time involved and the difficulty. Dr. Stott’s office usually quotes the cost for the higher fee if it looks like the extraction will be difficult and then will lower the charge to the lower fee if the extraction turns out to be an easy one. So, obviously AWC is not painting an honest picture of Dr. Stott’s office.

I’ve been going to Dr. Stott’s office for at least 15 years. Not only is Dr. Stott very kind and professional, but the entire staff is so friendly. The ladies up front are top notch and always have a smile (very important for a dentist office). The hygienists are caring in their work and take all the discomforts out of dental work. I highly recommend this office!
