Francisca G Acuman, DDS

Love this entire office! The receptionist is kind. And Dr Acuman’s office works quick. They worked like clock work! First they did my x-​rays and as soon as that was done Dr Acuman came and did my assessment and deep cleaning, while she prepared to fill my cavity another helper came and polished my teeth, the second she was done the Dr came back and filled my cavity quickly and PAINLESSLY! And I am a huge baby about needles and pain, she was seriously amazing! I can’t wait to take my two older kids this week and my twins that are 2 next week. I know they will love her too!
***update***
I did take all 4 of my kids within two weeks of my appointment and they all loved the office! My kids seriously have never loved a dentist before coming to this office. So happy to have found a dentist we all love.
And some hater is sending me messages saying my review is fake for this dentist. They must have nothing better to do with their lives… But you can look I rarely ever post reviews, unless I am super annoyed or super happy! Lol no in between reviews for me. I have 4 kids… ain’t nobody got time for that! Ha ha

I’ve been to her office twice now, it’s a cozy office with a decent ambiance. The receptionist has been really nice, fast and helpful. Waiting time was really good both times. The staff was cool and the dentist was on point and friendly. I really like how quick they can get you in, and when you are in– you’re not there all day. It’s nothing fancy fancy– but it is a clean nice update office. It totally works for me cause it’s professional & good business.

WARNING!!! Dr. Acuman is the most UNPROFESSIONAL dentist I have ever met. She called me personally and cancelled my appointment for an extraction on a tooth that has caused pain since the day I left there untreated. She literally called me and said she was uncomfortable treating me because of my Unilocal and she said I was rude to her. I GUARANTEE I WAS NOT RUDE TO THE PERSON THAT WAS GOING TO DO MY DENTAL WORK. Her receptionist is VERY RUDE and when I told her I still have her messages on my phone to prove that she lied this really upset them. Dr Acuman accused me of lying but had no response when I told her I saved the messages. She said emergencies are not treated the same day but when I called to make the appointment I was inforned otherwise. I made it very clear I only wanted to get the tooth worked on that was causing pain and the lady that I spoke with on the phone (the rude one) assured me that she was putting me in as an emergency and that the work would be done. Of course the work wasn’t done after I was there over 2 hours, because they were to busy. I could have went somewhere else that takes emergencies. Duh! Dr Acuman went on to say my tooth wasn’t even bleeding so I reminded her that I showed her blood. She still pretended not to remember so I asked her why she loaded me up on a prescription of VICODINE and ANTIBIOTICS if nothing was wrong? Answer that Dr? She was so concerned about my honest Unilocal like a teenage girl on social media. Not only is this unprofessional but canceling my treatment over a Unilocal review, and canceling my kids appointments, I have no doubt she is in violation somewhere. Things work out for a reason. The other patients looked in extra pain and as I was leaving a man told me his pain lasted over a week when he seen her last. I had a bad feeling that she was going to cause me extra pain, so Im glad I made an honest Unilocal that caused her to cancel not only mine but my kids appointments

My children received new insurance and needed a new dentist. I looked up reviews on Unilocal and other websites, but it’s really hard to tell if you’ll like a doctor until you go to them. I talked to my insurance company and they said that they would be able to assist me in finding a local dentist. The first office that they called did not have any availability anytime soon. The second office that they called was Dr. Acuman and they had an opening within the next couple of days.
The office is located off of Grant Line Road in the same shopping center as Popeye’s Chicken and L&L Hawaiian BBQ. I made the appointment for my twins first, as they had two spots open. My twins were really apprehensive about visiting the dentist, but once we got there, they were a lot more at ease.
Like all doctor’s offices, the first visit you are filling out a lot of paperwork. They called in my daughters one at a time. I went back there for both of them after they had examined them. Luckily, they didn’t have any cavities… but she did suggest to have sealant put over their teeth to prevent any cavities. I brought them in a week later to have that procedure done. My youngest daughter went in a week after my twin’s received the sealant. She unfortunately had a couple of cavities and had to have a couple of fillings. She was pretty freaked out about having to get them done, but Dr. Acuman and her assistant were really nice about it. It was done pretty quickly and my daughter said «I thought they were going to give me a shot». I said «They did» and she replied with «Well, I didn’t feel it».
My girls really disliked going to the doctor’s or dentist before. While I’m sure that there are other places they’d rather be, it isn’t a fight getting them there. Dr. Acuman’s office is very clean and modern, she’s always communicated well with what needed to happen with my girls. And my girls like her and the staff. I’m happy that we were recommended to her office, we have found our new dentist.

Let me start off by saying that I’ve been to a few dentists before, and not all have been good. I get nervous enough in medical situations as it is, so finding a good dentist was really important for me.
That being said, everything was a lot better than I expected. I decided to trust Ron’s opinion and went with this one out of the list of practices available to me.
I’m honestly confused. These one-​star reviewers can’t possibly be talking about the same place. The lobby is small and very clean. Even though this was my first time, I was in the chair within a few minutes after filling out some paperwork. This visit was just the analysis, but I can tell that everything is clean and well kept. The X-​ray process was transparent and I could see everything as it was being done.
When Dr. Acuman came by, I was charmed. She is very easy to talk to and was patient to answer the various questions I had about my situation. I will likely be getting some work done in the near future, so this meeting somewhat sets me at ease. I’ll be sure to take note of that experience when it happens.

Nothing but good things to say about this lady, I came from a snobby livermore dentist, so I thought I be treated like a number. Not here Dr acuman is sweet and caring person the first I’ve seen in a dentist and I been to plenty of dentists that don’t care one bit.
I get it dentists suck there will be pain, but I’ve had my good and bad with all, I think some of these reviews are bogus.
8÷15÷15: I went to get my crown put on, all the tools she uses are sterile, fresh out of a package, and I love this dentist, so sweet and caring.

Had a great experience here. It was easy and fast to make an appointment. Never had an actual doctor do my cleaning and she did a very good one and a REAL complete dental exam. (I have dental background experience so i know when is complete) She spent enough time during my visit. Staff was courteous and welcoming. Office was clean, I would recommend this dentist.

I am still suffering the aftermath of dental care gone bad. In the beginning i was very happily surprised to have a new office in Tracy. But once i started receiving my dental treatment things started going downhill, a filling that has barely any margins for flossing, to a cap put on that is too short for my bite. I have tried to schedule times to discuss this matter and let the crown be remedied to no avail, the scheduling is off or i was threatened with cancellation fees. My boyfriend went in for a full set of dentures and the paperwork was never submitted, and then we find out after having teeth pulled the office did not have the proper xray machine to do the job. All in all after trying to get in to see the dentist i had to argue with an incompassionate receptionist while still in the midst of a dental emergency. I am very upset and will be filing a complaint with ADA.

Dr. Acuman is always available for me when I need her, and talks me through my treatment which is always well done.
