Fantastic experience: Excellent service and dentist. I and my family have been patients for over 40 years. I consider the staff part of my family.
Fantastic experience: The best dental facility in San Diego
Fantastic experience: Took my husband there, as he is very afraid of the dentist. There is the most caring and knowledgeable staff working there. Dr. Patricia Raygada Rabanal thoroughly explained everything to us and helped us pick out the best treatment options to fit our budget. Prices are excellent as well, as we are currently without dental insurance. The hygienist was non-judgmental, kind and patient. The receptionist, Joyce (super sweet) also helped us get our records and referred him to an oral surgeon. He had a ton of anxiety and the team alleviated it all. Facility is very modern, clean and has good parking as well.
Fantastic experience: All the team members at South Bay Dental Arts are amazing! They take the time to be patient and caring.
Fantastic experience: We came in to the office expecting exorbitant cost to get my crown reattached but was handed with a dental bill that is very very affordable.

Fantastic experience: 5 Stars – Exceptional Care from Christina at South Bay Dental Arts I’ve been seeing Christina, the dental hygienist at South Bay Dental Arts, for several years now, and I can confidently say she is the best! Every visit is a consistently positive experience. Christina has a remarkable ability to make you feel completely at ease, and her professionalism, skill, and attention to detail are truly outstanding. What sets her apart is not just the thoroughness of her cleanings—which always leave my teeth feeling amazing—but also her clear communication. She takes the time to explain each step of the process and always shares helpful tips for maintaining good oral health at home. I leave every appointment feeling informed, cared for, and confident in my dental hygiene. If you're looking for a hygienist who combines expertise with genuine care, Christina is the one to see!

Pascual, thank you so much!
Fantastic experience: Profesional and very thorough in their work
Fantastic experience: “I had an excellent experience at [South Bay DENTAL Chula Vista]! The staff were friendly and professional from the moment I walked in. The hygienist was thorough and gentle, and Dr. Patty explained everything clearly, making sure I felt comfortable throughout my appointment. The office is clean, modern, and well-organized, and I never had to wait long past my scheduled time. I highly recommend this dental office to anyone looking for quality care and a welcoming atmosphere!” Good job Joyce. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: So I usually do not post reviews as I am a busy mom but this dental office deserves a great review. We have struggled to find a dental office that doesn’t feel like walking into a car dealership with them trying to push extra costs, unnecessary procedures, or sell us expensive dental products that can be found over the counter for half the price. They were very upfront with out of pocket costs and insurance coverage. They didn’t try to upsell us anything. Very straight to the point and the dentist is very nice and transparent. He explained everything clearly and I felt treated with respect. Thank you Southbay Dental Arts for a great experience. We will be coming back!
Fantastic experience: Respectfully, clean, professional, best customer service!
Negative experience: I have always had a great experience until my most recent visit. I was told by the front office after my appointment my visit wasn’t covered by insurance which was strange. I asked her to confirm and I received a call the following day from her saying the visit isn’t covered. She proceeded to ask for a credit card over the phone without the opportunity to fully process the information or at least receive a billing statement. I proceeded to call my insurance company after and it was confirmed the information was false, and my visits are indeed covered. I followed up with a call to the front office and no acknowledgment of the error on their part or at least an Apology. I would have ended up paying for a visit I shouldn’t have, if I did not do my due diligence. The whole process just left a bitter taste and I won’t be returning. The doctor is great but patients should be treated with the utmost respect and care.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your recent experience didn’t meet your expectations.
There was some initial confusion regarding your insurance coverage, and while we followed our standard procedures based on the information available at the time, we’re relieved that your insurance ultimately covered the visit. Most importantly, we want to clarify that no charges were made.
We truly appreciate your previous visits and are sorry this experience didn’t reflect the level of service we aim to provide.
Fantastic experience: 10/10 girls were super sweet and understanding ! Overall they want you to be happy and confident with your smile ! Definitely recommend and definitely will continue to use them !
Fantastic experience: I hadn't been to a dentist a long time and knew I had some consequences to face, but they were great about it and handled my exam and cleaning without the "lectures".

Fantastic experience: I appreciate the attention I receive when visiting my dental office.

Fantastic experience: I came because everyone posted that Joyce was the best and they did not lie! Joyce was amazing, friendly, and helpful. The paperwork process was smooth and easy to navigate. When I came in for my appointment, I wasn't even allowed to sit down because they were ready for me to be roomed. I was seen right away and after getting xrays done, the doctor was in to see me within 5 minutes. I love when a doctor does not over book themselves so I'm not waiting 5 hours to be seen. A+++ for the whole team!

Fantastic experience: I give this office 5 stars! I have been coming here for years. Then my insurance changed so I had to look elsewhere. After checking out a few other dental offices, I chose to come back to Dr. Raygada (even if my insurance does not cover this office anymore) I would rather pay out of pocket (even though I am retired) to get the care that I receive here ~ everyone here is professional, kind, polite and I trust what they tell me. The care given by Dr. Raygada, Joyce, Christina (the hygienist), etc. is superb and I did not encounter this elsewhere. So, I am back and will stay put! Thank you to the South Bay Dental Arts Group!

Fantastic experience: My more than 30 year experience with this practice has always been professional, caring and friendly. Joyce, the receptionist is so helpful and knowledgeable, especially about insurance. Dr Raygada is an excellent dentist. He is very gentle and thoughtful. My adult son, who is on the autism spectrum, is always welcomed and kindly cared for. I have recommended this practice to many of my friends and they always thank me for referring them. I’m very grateful to have such a supportive dental practice. Since Covid-19 the office is completely renovated for safety - it’s like a surgical suite! I’ve been twice since Covid-19 and have no fears about my safety and quality of care.
