It was my daughter’s first time coming to this dentist. My daughter was supposed to get crowns done from my actual dentist, but the dentist was unable to do it so they referred My daughter to This pediatric Dentistry. everyone was professional , but Dr. Acosta, kind of gave me a rude vibe. I’m not sure if he realize it was rude What was said, but I said that I was going to return and just ask for another Dr.

for my kids if possible. Anyways, he asked me what fillings did my child need it and I couldn’t remember exactly which tooth it was so I went to my email to look for the teeth that the dentist recommended she needed fillings for and I was trying to show him and he goes on to say “ I don’t need those We have our own pictures” , Mind you the receptionist asked me to bring it along with me and he asked me what fillings did she need so I’m just showing him the documentation that states what she needed. After that, he says that she doesn’t need to get any fillings done and to just follow up in a few months if it worsened and I said, I agree with you I was just bringing my Child because the other Dentist recommended me to bring her And it’s her first baby teeth so it shouldn’t be that crucial and he says … “ I know that it’s her first baby teeth. You don’t have to tell me that I’ve been working as a odontologist for years to know what baby tooth’s looks like. ” I was only agreeing with him.

I’m not sure why he made that comment. It was just a weird thing to say if someone is agreeing with you. At that point, it was just awkward silence and I just nodded my head up and down instead of responding to his cocky comment and after that I left it was just weird to me. I’m not sure if making another appointment with another doctor at this location is the right move to do or just find another Dentist because I don’t want any retaliation against me for making this review.

Hands down the best dental provider for children. I wish they accepted adults. From to start to finish my kids appointments went so smoothly. They needed surgery and a few months went by which was fine bc other children needed help as well not just mine. After a short wait they got us right into surgery.

Just wanna thank you guys!!! Dr. John Acosta!!!! 💜💜💜 Dr. Robin Hobbs!!!!💜💜💜 What a team!!!!! Don’t ever break up. You guys are so awesome!!!!
