      The doctor was very nice, and helped explain every step and process. He did the usual first check up visit, and also too picture of teeth that needed to be addressed with a tiny camera so he would have a reference, which was very cool! He made good recommendations without being judgmental. Overall, a great experience and I enjoyed meeting the tech and office assistant, they were also helpful and professional.

      Dr. Mendez and his staff were amazing. I went in, with an abscess and pain, after I filled out my paperwork, I got called back immediately. The staff was kind, inviting, and made me feel comfortable. Really helped me to no feel anxious. Dr. Mendez was very gentle, informative, and really did an amazing job. I left feeling prepared for my treatment plan and very relaxed. I will definitely be going back amd recommending people to him. Thank you Santee Dental Team!!! You guys are amazing.
