Three years later, my son is still traumatized by his one and only visit to this office. The office has a bizarre policy(which they do not clearly explain to new patients) of refusing to allow parents to be present in the exam room with children. My son was THREEYEARSOLD at the time of his visit. They escorted him from the waiting room, giving me the impression that I would join him shortly. After five minutes, I heard him screaming and asked to be admitted to the room where he was being examined and I was told that parents may not go into the exam rooms with their children. I to this day regret not going to him regardless of this ridiculous rule. The upshot of this experience has been that my son was terrified to ever return to the dentist. After three years he finally trusted the hygienist at a different practice enough to clean his teeth. Today we had to go to new practice and he was very fearful, asking me if I would be able to go into the exam room with him. Avoid this office like the plague, particularly if you have young or sensitive children who will want you with them.

I’ve been going to Dr. Perez for about ten years(I’m past pediatric age now, but he’s so good I don’t want to switch) and I’ve had nothing but fabulous experiences. They are never late, the facilities are very clean and welcoming, and everyone is very polite. I understand that parents are a bit leery about sending their kids in without being there, but it makes the situation much nicer — the rooms are somewhat small, and become too crowded when the parents are in there. Dr. Perez has always been very polite and willing to speak to my parents if they asked, but children have a tendency not to listen to the doctor when their parents are hovering over them. Dr. Perez encourages the children to understand the cleaning process on their own — perhaps it’s a place better for slightly more independent children. All in all, Dr. Perez is fabulous — one of the friendliest dentists, and he’s VERY, very good at his job. Always quick, I’ve never been there for more than thirty minutes, from parking to leaving. Both he and his hygenists are very thorough — cannot recommend them more.

This is not a review to the actual medical quality of the doctor or nurses. Which seems all right. Facilities are new and welcoming. This is a review mostly on a policy matter. I really don’t like the lack of tact and effort to explain that parents are not allowed inside. If you have this policy you really should explain it much better.
