Fantastic experience: I strongly & highly recommend Dr ⚕️ Ricardo Guillen at Compassion dental he is an all 5 ⭐️ & beyond a awesome dentist takes pride in all he does in care of his patients I’ve been having my dental work done with dr G from way back since he had his practice in Portland Tx til now here in Harlingen . Also all his staff are so nice & caring never had I ever come across of such a great compassionate dentist as dr G !! In clouding his staff once again Compassion dental are all a 5 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ & beyond!!
Fantastic experience: Outstanding customer service. Professional, from front area to the Doctor. They explain everything well.
Fantastic experience: The staff very friendly and Dr Guillen too ♀️
Negative experience: Update: I wanted to post this as an "advocate for yourself" I got lots of fillings done but have been continuously having one issue reoccur. I'd gone back multiple times for adjustments for it but the issue continued, and honestly I gave up out of embarrassment from going. As much as I love the staff and doctors, I don't think I can go back. I still cant bite or floss that one tooth and I will need to find another dental provider to try to fix or take the tooth out..A part of me wishes I never got it fixed so I would be able to bite again
Fantastic experience: They took excellent care of me and were very cognizant of my recent health issues.
Fantastic experience: This entire group of professionals provide quality dental care. I am glad to have found them and recommend them highly.
