Most patients feel genuinely calm under Dr. Koos's care and wake from extraction with minimal pain or swelling. He calls to check in after surgery and explains procedures thoroughly. A small number report frustration with front desk staff, confusing billing practices, and miscommunication around pain medications or pre-op details.

Most patients describe a warm, welcoming practice where Dr. Macwan, Dr. Lee, and staff put them at ease quickly. Appointments are easy to book and appointments move efficiently. Reviewers consistently praise the dentists' friendliness and the team's care. However, at least one detailed account flags serious concerns: a patient was recommended four cavities, multiple unnecessary treatments, and extractions that independent second and third opinions found baseless. The patient also received an undisclosed fluoride treatment and was billed months later despite explicitly refusing it. While this stands as a single account against overwhelmingly positive reviews, the complaint pattern suggests a mismatch between diagnosis standards and independent verification.
