Pediatric Dental Care Associates

The visits seem to get worse and worse. Yesterday I went in person to schedule an emergency appointment for my son who chipped my tooth. However they messed up the scheduling and so when we went in they sat my child down but he sat there for 20 minutes doing nothing and all they did was take an x ray with no cleaning or no filling for the tooth. Then when they brought me in they told me that they could possibly fit us in that day and they could possibly fix it but they can’t guarantee it will be fixed. So we went to checkout and even though they didn’t do anything they charged us for the xray and an «examination» which was them telling us that they can possibly do a filling and they can’t fit us in. When we asked why we were being charged the woman behind checkout was being very rude. Both my child and I were very upset.
Summary: They didn’t give us what we made our appointment for but still charged us.

This place is the best! Really helped my kid get over his fear of the dentist. Only had to wait a few minutes to see the doctor, and the receptionist, nurse and dentist were all very friendly and engaging with me and my child. Everything from start to finish was super kid friendly. There are toys and wall-​mounted video games in the lobby; they let him watch cartoons with earphones in the dentist chair; and upon completion they give each child a coin to put into a gumball machine filled with toys as a special treat. They even took a keepsake photo of my child with a giant toothbrush! They make going to the dentist a fun activity that a kid can actually look forward to! Highly recommended

I love this office! The staff and doctors are very nice. I know insurances are confusing because they confused me! The staff called and got all the answers I needed

I was incredibly impressed with this office.
They took my newborn in for a consultation to check for lip/​tongue ties. Because he is so young he isn’t able to be added to our dental insurance until we get his birth certificate. The office offered to do the consultation for free! I was shocked.
We saw Dr. Galea, who was kind and saw us very quickly.
I wish this office was a bit closer to us because I would continue coming here for my older child, and honestly, I may bring her here regardless of the drive.

Just got billed $ 35 X 2 for a «Failed Appointment» When I had cancelled all future appointments with these people after my nightmare experience with the billing department. Stay away from this place.

We’ve been going here for years and absolutely love it. Dr. Galea is great at evaluations, bonding, and extractions. He is especially great at injecting the novocain with little pain. His team is always sweet and reassuring. Thank you all so much for wonderful care!

Took my kids here, a little far from we live, but it worth it, great service, Vanessa was nice and professional we are very happy of taking the kids here, this will definitely be their dentist.

I take all 4 of my kids here and its always a good experience. Well, as good as the dentist can be. They are knowledgeable, professional and great with the kids. They are compassionate and timely. That all makes a huge difference for me having to do this twice a year.

My biggest gripe about PDCA is that I can never get an appointment time that is compatible with work and school schedules. Even booking many months in advance my daughter has to be late to school, leave early or be absent. I booked right after her last appointment and was told they only book so far out so I was stuck again with an appointment at a crap time-12:00pm. They said they had no other time available. Give me a break, booking in advance I get what ever time I want at my dentist (Dr. Licata) nor had I ever had that problem with my daughter’s other pediatric dentist. If they don’t have time for us we will go to a dentist that does. I do like Dr. McGee but the stress of just getting an appointment that works has me in search of another practice. Well that and your rude older receptionist, is she related to someone there? That is the only reason I can think of why she still has a job.

My 3 girls love this dentist! We have been patients for about 3 years now. We are always greeted and taken care of quickly, and everything from fun in the waiting room, to X-​rays, to cleanings to fillings has been a pleasant experience and my girls always look forward to their next visit! :)

Both of my girls have been seen by all three dentists. They certainly cater to the anxiety of both patient and parent. Their setup is calming, perfect for children unsure of what’s going on. Most of the staff knows how to talk to children, reassuring them.
Only going to knock off one star for scheduling. Must book far in advance.

Sarcastic lady at the front desk looked at me as if I was stupid for not getting voice messages my family never got. Thanks. Seriously here once and I wanted to fight someone.

I take both my boys here.
Wonderful!

Took my 2 year old for his first dental appointment today and had a great all around experience. The staff is friendly and professional. Liz was our hygienist and she was wonderful with my son. She made him feel comfortable and had no trouble
with him being scared. The dentist was also good with my son and friendly.
They took a picture of him to capture his first visit and printed it for us, he was also given stickers and coins to cash in for treasure :-)
The waiting area has video games and toys. They also have a tv room where kids can sit and watch cartoons.
I was definitely pleased with the service and will return.

Wonderful group of people! Recommend Dr. McGee, she is excellent with children. Nice office and staff as well.

Have been going to see Dr Waggoner for years. I’ve been to the Sahara location as well as the location on Simmons in North Las Vegas. The staff in both offices are friendly and helpful. The offices are set up similarly so the transition was easy on my kids. Dr Waggoner is very professional but has a great way with the kids. Mine are all about brushing well so Dr Waggoner will be proud of them. Evidently I don’t rate high enough. I’m just glad they like him and the service he provides is exceptional!

My two kids love coming to the dentist! We were referred here by our family dentist when my 8 year old needed a cap on an adult molar. Our dentist recommended pediatric sedation for this procedure. He didn’t want to change my kid’s positive view towards seeing the dentist. :)
We have since moved to this side of town and switched permanently to this practice. Our wait time is always minimal. The staff is friendly. I could not ask for anything more! Thanks Dr. Waggoner!

My kids love this place. Dr. Waggoner is wonderful. The best part is that they are almost always on time.
