Simon Garza Jr, DDS

Love Dr. Garza and team. As mentioned below Dr. Garza and associates are patient, kind, cheerful, considerate and friendly. Dr. Garza has a special technique that helps to alleviate the pain caused during the injections, in fact any pain that I feel comes from the fluid being pushed into the gum, not from the insertion of the needle. And that pain only lasts for a moment, not a big deal.
I highly recommend Dr. Garza and will continue to see him for a long time. To his entire team, thank you for a job well done. See you soon.

Dr. Garza and his staff are fantastic. They are all very friendly and skilled. You won’t find a better dental experience anywhere.

Update: I still love going to see Dr. C at Dr. Garza’s office. Just minutes before my most recent visit, I found out a close relative was being rushed into emergency surgery. Due to my own schedule I wasn’t able to reschedule so I stayed for the appointment and they rushed me back and saw me quickly so I could head out to the hospital. Thank you to everyone at Dr. Garza’s office!

I didn’t have anything big done, just a regular exam. But I really liked Dr. Garza, K’Ja and Kristen (who cleared my insurance in advance). Dr. Garza does a good job explaining what’s what without being an alarmist.

I was unceremoniously thrown out of his office yesterday because he was hurting me while putting anesthesia in my gums. I was whining to let him know it was hurting. He asked me if I wanted nitrous and I tried to communicate that I didn’t but I had a needle in my gums. When he removed the needle he asked me again very sharply if I wanted it then I said NO and that this is why I didn’t want to do this crap (a deep cleaning) because it hurts! Yeah I got a little loud but only because he had shoved that needle in deep and was holding it in there for a long time and I was in pain. He then told me to get out and several times told me he would call the police if I didn’t.
Of course I got upset and when I asked why several times he told me it was because I was acting like a child, crying and whining like a baby and that I was a big baby and that his patients didn’t act like I did, like a big baby. I was not being thrown out for anything I did but because he hurt me and I whined about it his own words. Nice service!
I will not be going back and after the way I was treated both times I’ve come here I will probably never go to a dentist again! The first time I came in two years ago I was told that they would not clean my teeth unless I got a deep cleaning and I couldn’t afford the almost $ 500 bill. They offered me a deal since my wedding was coming up that they would clean my teeth but I had to pay out of pocket. I just thought they were being shady and trying to get away without having to file insurance because they got more money that way but since I needed my teeth cleaned I agreed. They said I had to come back and get the deep cleaning in exchange for this.
However, a few months later I called them to make the appointment but told them I didn’t want the deep cleaning because I still couldn’t afford it, it hurt and I had already had two done in previous years and they did no good. The hygienist chewed me out on the phone very angrily and told me I was reneging on the deal they had made with me and they had only done it as a courtesy. I told them they were being unethical and they claimed that it would be unethical to not do the deep cleaning. At the time I just thought they were being shady. I did call a few other dentists to ask if what they said was true and they said yes but I still did not go until now because I finally have insurance that will mostly cover this service.
Please do not see this man he is awful and cruel and obviously was trying to get back at me for not coming in two years ago. I’m filing a complaint with the state dental board and the better business bureau.

I’m not someone who writes reviews. In fact I created a Unilocal account for the soul purpose of writing a review for Dr. Garza and his staff. They have earned my business as well as a five star rating! I was in his office for a temporary crown. Dr. Garza took his time making sure I was completely satisfied. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Garza!

I’ve been going to Dr. Garza for years now, my family does as well. We love this office! The staff is friendly and Dr. Garza never has a bad day! he’s always happy and smiling.
I recently referred my fiancé to see Dr. Garza since he hasn’t had a regular dentist. He also really enjoyed his experience with Dr. Garza’s office and is now a new patient!
I love their patience and their amazing staff! I’m never anxious about going in for a cleaning knowing i’m in good hands.
Thanks Dr. Garza and staff!

Dr. Garza and his office staff make it downright enjoyable to visit the dentist. Really. The people who work here are great. They greet you with a smile, and they are professional and efficient too. I was running late today after waiting in line to vote (2012 Election!) and when I called in, one of the ladies up front went out of her way to fit me back into the schedule.
I was fortunate to find Dr. Garza’s dentist office when I moved to Austin in 2008, and have been going here ever since. I have been recommending him to everyone I know, and now via Unilocal… to people I don’t know too.

This is the best dental experience I’ve ever had. I went in for a deep cavity and left with a smile on my face. The staff was very friendly and Dr. Garza made my visit very comfortable. He told me what he was going to do before he did it so I knew what to expect.
I recommend Dr. Garza to anyone that is looking to get dental work done. I need to go back in 2 weeks to get some more work done… can’t wait!
