Charmaine Barizo, DDS

I have been with Dr Barizo since the time she purchased the practice.
As a person who over the years has had a lot of work done, Dr Charmiaine has proved excellent service and quality workmanship. I was tempted to leave the practice in the transition time after my previous DDS had passed away and when Dr Charmaine took over the practice, because the commute I have to get to the office from where I live but… the service and quality workmanship won me over. For me it was worth it to go where I know I would be well taken care of. The mouth is a pretty important thing if you know what I mean!
I recommend Dr Charmaine Barizo for the following of which I’ve had done: crowns, fillings, cleanings, and general information.

Dr. Barizo is my mothers dentist. My mom is elderly. Dr. Barizo spent considerable time with me advising me and my mother how proceed for current and future care of an elder person’s dental needs. She has been kind, personable, honest and transparent about costs, services, referrals (which have been top rate!), as well as educational. Her level of care has been excellent, and outcomes have been very positive.

The office is very pleasant and has up to date digital equipment. However, if you are one who likes to ask questions and take an active role in your own dental care and decisions, this might not be the practice for you. Dr. Barizo can be defensive about client questions. She is friendly and warm on the surface but when asked about decisions or quality of care, there is some offense she takes and considers client questions to represent a lack of trust in her. Usually client participation is how trust builds but in the case of this dental practice, this has not been the case in recent experiences with them. Still, her skills are competent. But if you need anything major and have questions, I’d recommend treading gingerly for their defensiveness is a hard thing to handle as a patient.
