I really did enjoy being in this dentist office right up until I met the actual dentist himself. The staff was super friendly, and the facility itself was quite nice, and very clean. But then when Dr. del Valle came in, it all went downhill. He didn't speak much to me, and when he went to take x-rays of my mouth he knocked me in the head, twice, with the machine, and did not once apologize or act like he felt bad about it- it freaking hurt! He didn't explain what he had been planning on doing for my teeth very much, leading me to believe that he would be possibly extracting my tooth on a later date. Then he asked me to open my mouth, never explaining what was happening, and stuck in the needle to numb me! I was in shock! During the extraction of my tooth I could not feel a whole lot which was nice, but he was wrenching pretty hard, afterwards my entire jaw was extremely sore (something that never happened after my other extractions.) The hygienist did a terrible job sucking out the water and the blood during the extraction, and I felt like I was drowning several times. When I complained that I needed a minute, Dr. del Valle was very rude about it... I do not recommend this office at all.
