Tehachapi Community Medical and Dental

It’s nice to say I have a dentist I like and im not scared to death to let get near my teeth the dentist here is really good did a great job on my teeth and the ladies he has helping him are also really nice he also is really good with the shots first time I’ve been to a dentist and I don’t feel any work he’s doing

I actually took my boyfriend here so he can get some stuff done but as far as i know they got him in and out in a resonable time and the people were really nice =)

The actual woman dentist here is great!
I absolutely love her, and love her assistants and everything, they do amazing dental work, and are VERY friendly.
The reason i’d giving it a lower rating is because of the woman working at the front desk.
Out of all the places i’ve ever been, she’s seriously the worst.
First of all, i live about 20 – 25 minutes from here, but if i want to do something simple like as a question or make an appointment, i have to DRIVE ALL THE WAY HERE BECAUSE SHE NEVER ANSWERS THE PHONE.
She will never answer my calls to make an appointment. Ever.
Which is weird because every time i’m there, she happens to be on the phone, and seems to drag out her time talking, to avoid helping me.
So Once i get there, she has an like, a bad attitude. I don’t even want to talk to her, and I’M a friendly person.
She keeps people waiting, works EXTREMELY slowly, and gives off a bad vibe.
I know i should be filing a formal complaint instead of rating this place, but i think that maybe if more people see this and know what i’m talking about, maybe more people will complain and realize they don’t have to take it.

Dr. Wade Hayashi is a wonderful dentist.
We’ve been here a few times and the dentist is wonderful. He’s good with kids, even my young child who is afraid of dentists loves him. He’s gentle and just a nice person. What an asset to Tehachapi!
