Gateway Dentistry

Last year Dr Dave extracted one of my wisdom teeth. The procedure was quick, and as painless as such a thing can be. Dr Dave had that tooth out in 2 wiggles. It was a great experience. They gave me the name of another doctor who specializes in sedation dentistry to remove the others but I have no interest in being sedated and the Dr had said he could get the other 3 but I may be more comfortable sedated. I disagree. Today I called to have the same simple tooth extraction done. They rudely told me that they had reffered me else where and did not make the appointment. Now best case scenario I have to wait until the 4^th just to have another bloody consult and probably a week longer to have anything actually done. I’m in pain now, it would take them maybe an hour from start to finish to fix my problem but they’d rather try and send me down the road for a much more expensive procedure that I don’t need. Very unhelpful, very rude, completely lacking in compassion. Just lost a patient and they won’t be getting their finders fee for sending me else where because I will not be seeing the oral surgeon they recommended either.

New patient from SLC. Great experience here from the beginning to the end! I went in for a cleaning/​check up; I had the pleasure of having Veronica work on my teeth who was very considerate, had gentle hands as she worked, and explained/​taught me what she was doing the entire time. Nancy at the front was one of the nicest people I know, made me feel welcome and explained options for additional appointments/​treatments with helpful advice. The dentist (The husband who is there on Fridays) explained things well and enjoyed explaining my questions. I would recommend this outstanding team. I loved that they had sunglasses so their overhead light didn’t blind my eyes the whole time! My only recommendation is to instal overhead TVs for procedures. I only gave a 4 star because my heart still belongs to Dr. Wells in Utah. ;)

Best dental experience I have had since moving back to AZ. I made my husband an appointment before leaving my first appointment!
