Reviews for Dental Exam Services in La Jolla, CA

Dr. Salazar was highly recommended and the overall experience was beyond my expectations. I appreciated Dr. Salazar’s honest, direct approach and appropriate seriousness for my complex situation. His expertise was evident as he created a clear plan toward my necessary dental restoration. I felt valued and respected; with confidence in his advanced knowledge and experience. I’m addition, the office staff was very welcoming and professional. I highly recommend Dr. Salazar if you’re seeking high quality dental care. And many thanks to Carolyn at Keiffer’s Orthodontics for the great referral! More

Dr Dougherty's office is efficient, thoughtful and provides excellent dental care. I am a physician and know how hard it is to both run an office and give excellent patient care. He does both. Highly recommend Dr Dougherty and staff. More

It may sound strange to say that I enjoyed my dental appointment, but I always enjoy and appreciate the care I receive. Everyone I've encountered in the office is professional, kind, and thorough, and each is eager to give the best possible dental care. I have complete confidence in them. More

I visited Dougherty Dental on a recommendation from a friend.....and I am very glad I did. From the beginning, my experience was most favorable.......a friendly greeting on entering made me feel welcome immediately, extremely professional and competent dental examination with Dr Dougherty and wonderful assistant, smooth payment system and future appointment schedule. Can't wait to go back! More

Simply the best dental care in San Diego area! The professions at Dougherty work so well with clients because they respect each person and they love to give the highest standard of care with the best results possible. No bias here— they are consistently accurate with the best manners and educational value. More

I had a visit with Dr. Salizar to fix some dental work from a prior dentist. He was amazing!  He did a very thorough examination of my mouth and Explained everything in great detail. You could immediately tell he was very knowledgeable and cared about making your mouth the best possible. Andrea was the assistant. She was very kind and helpful. They are a great team. I can’t praise this dentist enough. He fixed my bite which has been off for more than 3 years due to another dentist. I am so glad I found this dentist office. I have a cleaning next week and can’t wait to see if the hygienist is as good as the dentist. I’m sure they will be. The office is super nice and got me in quickly with the dental emergency even though I was a new patient. Thank you so much!!! More

My mom has been getting her teeth cleaned by Heidi for years, and always boasts about her. I finally switched to Dougherty Dental. I met Dr. Scott, and Jeanette. They were so patient, informative and comforting! It's a very nice office, and the staff were all extremely pleasant. More

Dr Dougherty is the consummate professional. An excellent dentist, he avoids unnecessary treatments or procedures, which really suits me. Also a very kind and caring person, as is the entire staff. I was referred to Dr Dougherty by my periodontist a few years ago and so glad I found him. More

Fantastic! I am so happy with Dougherty Dental. I've been a patient for over two years now and am happy with every aspect of the practice. From making appointments throught the entire process. The professionals working there are very qualified and have great attitudes. They are always on time for appointments as well. I highly recommend Dougherty Dental. More

Dougherty Dental helped my mother, with dementia,  in my absence and in the presence of a care giver to receive necessary dental treatment.  They certainly could have decided not to work with Mother under the circumstances, but instead, through phone calls to me and through emails, we were able to get Mother the treatment she needed.  I applaud the Dougherty team for their humanity and professionalism More

Dr. Dougherty is a really wonderful doctor- he always tells it like it really is about my teeth and he’s super friendly! The staff are all lovely and I always feel way more comfortable here than at any other dentist I’ve had over the years. My teeth have been healthy and beautiful for a while now! Highly highly recommend. More

Dr Dougherty and his staff are awesome in every way. Friendly, knowledgeable and modern dentistry. Highly recommend them! More

Dr. Dougherty has always gone above and beyond the call of duty.  He is very professional and extremely cautious about every detail when it comes to making certain his patients leave with a healthy and beautiful smile.    Thanks Dr. Paul! More

I have spent a great deal of time in a dentist chair since knocking out my two front teeth at age 13. I speak from experience and with conviction that my experience is always positive. They are the very best and I would not consider anyone other than Dr. Dougherty and his caring assistant and warm staff. More

They’re doing all the right things at this dentist’s office. Been going there for several years -- Paul is a neighbor  of ours. But more than that, it’s a place that has friendly staff, professional services, beautiful accommodations. I go twice a year to have my teeth cleaned, and Heidi always has some helpful information for keeping my teeth even healthier. More

Super clean new office. in 20 years have never had a problem, just the best. More
