Dr. Calimlim is a quack. I went to him for a cleaning/checkup and he told me that I had multiple cavities between my teeth despite not showing me the x-rays. Thinking this was strange, I opted for a second opinion and it turns out that I am cavity-free! There have been similar stories posted on yelp of such experiences and I just want to warn everyone to stay away from this dentist!

Dr. Calimlim, diagnosed 6 cavities in a person that had never had a cavity. This patient got a second opinion and found out that they didn't have any cavities!!

He was the most rudest unprofessional dentist I have ever been to. He made me feel worse by the time I left. My current dentist is on vacation & i had a dental emergency. Hisw location was the only place that would take my insurance & could get me in as a walk in. The xray tech was great, Dr, Calimlim & his tech were a different story. They wanted to pull 2 additional teeth on the opposite side that were not affecting me at all & He refused to pull the 1 that was bothering if I didnt let him pull the other ones. He then came back to numb my mouth by shot, he shoved the needles so hard in my mouth that today my mouth is swollen on the sides & roof of my mouth. He had me hysterical! Ive had 3 other teeth pulled in the past & have NEVER had any of this happen to me,EVER! When he thought it was time to pull, He then pokes one of the teeth that werent bothering me, that was broken, so hard that it shot a pain in my eye & i tried to stop him he said it was pressure & it was not. He then threw his tool down, told the tech to get a referral, that they could put me out & that it would take months to get into them too. I was covered in sweat & hysterical. I will seek Legal Action, theres not enough room to type the whole story, this is edit

Dr. Calimlim is one of the best dentists that I have ever encountered. As busy as he was, he always took the time to thoroughly explain all treatment options and answered all my questions. He was extremely gentle with all procedures- and I am a total dentist phobic!!
