Gurpreet Narula Dental Corporation

My dentist could not complete a root canal and referred me to Dr. Narula.
My experience was as good as could be expected. Everyone in the office made the procedure as pain free as possible.

Dr. Narula did a root canal on a tooth that was bothering me and everything from the check-​in to the explanation and execution of the procedure was clearly conveyed and fulfilled. He is very knowledgeable about his work and what he does, giving him the confidence to perform exactly what he says he will do and he has excellent hands as a dental surgeon. He even prepared a report on the specifics of the procedure that impressed my general dentist. Very thorough, organized, and professional. The office staff is helpful and friendly, especially Clara at the front desk. She is a sweet heart.

My dentist referred me to Narula for a consultation because I complained of minor discomfort in a tooth and my dentist couldn’t figure out why. Narula was very pushy that I have a surgery done right away. He even called me on my cell after my appointment to try and convince me to have the surgery. I have two issues with this.
1. He couldn’t confirm why I had any discomfort in the tooth.
2. He wasn’t sure if the surgery would correct the issue.
I’m a bit shocked that a $ 1500 surgery is suggested for a minor discomfort that I’m not even feeling on a regular basis. If I was in pain I might have a different attitude about it.
I’m all for taking preventative measures, but not if the dentist doesn’t know for sure what the issue is or if the surgery they’re recommending will correct it.
I don’t want to wait for the discomfort to turn into pain before I address it, but I need more assurance from Dr. Narula before I can in good faith make the decision to have surgery.
Also, my visit to Dr. Narula cost me $ 250 bucks! This was for his office to take X-​rays for one tooth and for him to recommend surgery that I may or may not need and may or may not work.

I was referred by Dr. Tuyen Nguyen to Dr Narula for root canal. His staffs are very nice and friendly. Dr. Narula is really professional, advised me all the procedures and explained everything. I have insurance HMO and it covered for me over 80%. Firstly I thought it was really bad but it was not. Anyway, I really appreciate Dr. Narula for his treatment.

I was referred to Dr. Narula for a root canal. Narula started the first part of the procedure, After 5 days I still was in excruciating pain. I ended up in the emergency room due to the pain which caused my blood pressure to sky rocket. I went back to my second apt due to the pain he performed the root canal again after he was done he informed me if I still continued to have pain that I would have to have it pulled. During my third apt I informed him I was still experiencing pain he replied we’re going to finish it up and then you will have to go to your regular dentist to have it filled. While having the tooth filled my regular Dentist found a crack and a blister on the side of the tooth. A couple of weeks later I had to have the tooth pulled due to the infection. So I spent a total of $ 2000 on this tooth my issue is he should have never treated this tooth to begin with instead of completing the job he should have instructed me to have it pulled that’s why I went to him he supposed to be a specialist and I feel that all his interest was to make money and get me moving on regardless of how much pain I was in. I did speak to him about the whole situation and due to me signing the forms I have no recourse

Dr Narula – on Jackson was very fast and skilled. He did not waste time chatting, but gave me all the data, and answered my questions brusquely but well. He did a beautiful job on the three roots of tooth number 2, a molar way in the back. The many x-​rays were clear as was his explanation. I wish he had done tooth # 3. The other dentist left 2 pockets of decay, so I will return to him to have it fixed.
I would rather have a skilled fast dentist than a charmer whose work makes things worse.

Dr. Narula provided me excellent service. He explained things concisely, but thoroughly. He worked fast, but focused on minimizing my discomfort. Since my insurance coverage had already maxed out this year, I had to pay cash and Dr. Narula kindly let me pay half upon treatment, and half when I got paid a few days later. Getting a root canal is never pleasant, but I recommend Dr. Narula. Not 5 stars because the office is in a retro medical office building off Jackson Rd. and kind of hard to get to/​find, at least for me. But I have A.D.D., so maybe other people can follow directions, and tell time, and drive better than me.

My dentist is David Jou, and I picked Dr. Jou because of the positive Unilocal reviews. When he recommended Dr. Narula for a root canal,
I also looked him up on Unilocal,and was surprised by the mediocre reviews, but reading the reviews carefully, the complaints did not appear to be credible.
Dr. Narula is an excellent dentist. The reason I needed to see him was to have my root canal redone, since my dentist in the past, didn’t do a very good job.
Dr. Narula was very skillful, showing me side by side comparison of before and after X-​ray images of the root canal, the difference was night and day. I did not get the impression that his speech was scripted, my impression of him was that of a very passionate, professional Doctor. Again I’m very impressed with him and his staff, and I extend my thanks.

In conclusion, I really didn’t wan to give them 1 star, Unilocal should have 0 star for service and professional.
Long story make it short, I asked for a doctor’s note after the appointment to excuse me from work, they flat out said no, «you will be fine to go back to work», «you are not in pain». WTH, I was in shock when I heard this from a receptionist not a dentist. In addition, the dentist didn’t even come out to say it to my face because he had 3 other patient waiting for him.
Once the treatment is done, you need to get up and get out NOW so I can treat other patient, No notes, No Prescription, No explanation, No service at all… all about the money, you are nothing but a number to them.
I can express myself enough how i was in pain while I dealing with this office.
NEVER NEVER NEVER come back to this office.

is it me or to everyone? I feel like the doctor is memorizing a script and apply that to every patient. Don’t remember what he said exactly but here:
«you are young, i would recommend to fix this now… but we don’t guarantee what would happen next, there is an chance it can fail so you will need…»
like exact phrase to everyone.

After the doctor called me about the review from above, I realized he did do a really good job on the root canal. Pains are gone, everything went back to normal. No more infection. Actually, I would recommend anyone who needs the treatment to this office.

I had Dr. Narula (Endodontist) perform 2 root canals at his Jackson office. There can be many complications in root canal surgery and I was lucky that my dentist referred me to a very capable and skilled endodontist. My 2 procedures went very well and I experienced almost no pain during the surgeries.
If there was a negative with Dr. Narula and his staff, they seemed to be very busy and to keep things on schedule, they explain the procedures in a rapid fashion. Maybe a little lack of empathy, but that is a minor complaint considering my 2 successful surgeries.

They have 2 offices. One on Quimby and the other on Jackson. The one on Quimby Rd. is the general dentist and the one on Jackson is the specialist. Did not like either one of the offices. The one on Quimby is small and unorganized. They sent us to the one on Jackson because they couldnt fixed it (the tooth) on the one on Quimby.
We went to the one on Jackson. Nice pretty setting office but the doctor was persistant and forceful. We decided not to go see him because of his «talking» He said hes the «only» doctor who specializes in this treatment and accepts this insurance we have. R u kidding me? do u think we are dumb? come on now, he just want us to sign up with him because all he wanted was our money. He didnt care about whats wrong with us, so we jus turned away and saying that if we ever come back to his office he“ll charge us $ 100 for «taking up his time and not going forth with his treatment» Dont worry buddy, we aint coming back.
So we found a better doctor who does specialize in what the problem we have in San Jose. They are really nice and caring. Which they are located on Blossom Hill rd.
