Bad customer service can be defined as when a business fails to meet the customer expectations in terms of service quality, response time, or overall customer experience. For that reason I write this for future individuals who I recommend going some where else as the people who work their do not aid the customer when issue come to present itself.

Took my mom to this place to get some x rays done. Front desk were really unfriendly and disrespectful. The lady called Claudia ignored my questions while she was sitting at the front desk. And honestly is making every process harder here.
Needed my mom x rays sent by email. It's been 5 days and still waiting for this email. Terrible experience and terrible customer service.

Today was my first time visiting Northridge Dental Office and I had an amazing experience. The doctors and staff are extremely nice. They helped me with my insurance information and thoroughly explained the recommended procedures. Looking forward to my next visit.

This place disproves the adage: "You get what you pay for."
Do not go here, not under any circumstance. It's a training ground for dentists fresh out of school, which is why the dentist you end up seeing is only available 1-2 days/week, and why they won't allow you to see another dentist at the practice, even if "your" dentist has caused you to be in excruciating pain for weeks. And "your" dentist will recommend treatment that is overly aggressive and as expensive as possible (more on that, below!). I could go on about the amount of money and pain their ineptitude caused me (crowns, root canals

I had a scheduled visit with this dental office last Friday at 2pm to assess my implant. When I arrived, they said the dentists were not there because they had to attend to an important training. I asked why was I not inform about this?!?! The front deck staff said she contacted me for rescheduling, but I got no phone calls from them, and I got no email notification as well. Nothing, I got absolutely no notifications about this reschedule plan! They straight up lied to me, and that was very professional! Before this incident, I really liked this dental office. Unfortunately, I would not recommend
