Coombs & Brewer DDS

Experiencia fantástica: Had my teeth cleaned which is nice. No waiting just got right in. I'm pretty new at this dental office but all my interactions have been positive with the hygienist and dentist.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone at Coombs & Brewer is so friendly! They really take the time to get to know their patients. Any questions are fully answered and treatments are explained. Easy to make appointments and fast check in. I highly recommend Coombs & Brewer!

Experiencia negativa: We paid over $550 to have a chipped front tooth repaired with bonding. Insurance covered part of it, and we paid the rest out of pocket. A week later, the bonding came right off. I get that things can happen, but there’s no reason a bonded repair on a front tooth should fail after one week. That’s the whole point of doing the repair. Instead of standing behind their work, we were left looking for another dentist to fix what should have been done right the first time. When you’re charging that kind of money, people expect quality work that lasts longer than a week. We walked away feeling overcharged, frustrated, and honestly disappointed. I wouldn’t go back, and I can’t recommend them based on our experience.

Experiencia fantástica: They got me in fast and very pleasant staff. Also old school, filled out paperwork, no tablets techy stuff.

Experiencia negativa: Came in with a chipped tooth, they took x-rays said they would not do a tooth rebuild or do a crown because there was not enough tooth support for it. I had the tooth recently worked on in Germany with my dentist there and am planning to go back in February to get the tooth finished with a post in the root and than a crown. I had the X-rays sent to my German dentist and she said the tooth can absolutely be saved and I should just make sure I keep it clean and avoid eating hard things around it and it will be fine. When I left the Coombs and Brewer office they did not give me any advice what to do with the tooth other than it should be pulled and an implant and that I can gladly seek a second opinion. So basically I was 146 dollars poorer from the visit and X-rays and left with great anxiety over situation and felt helpless. I will no longer go to this dentist office. I did receive an appointment immediately though so that part was positive just the bad news on their part with absolutely no advice what to do with my chipped tooth other than get it pulled or seek a seocnd opinion.

Experiencia fantástica: This office has been very welcoming. My Dentist has taken the time to answer any questions I have. He has taken the time to adjust my bite as my teeth improve. I have an abnormal chewing style and he works on making sure I don't have hat spots/high spots. Before I leave.

Experiencia fantástica: It was great as always, thank you

Experiencia fantástica: Talented staff.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been a patient with this office for thirty years and have always been treated with the utmost respect, care and grace. My hygienist Gina is the best in her field in my opinion and one of the sweetest people you will ever know. Thank you for helping me keep my own teeth and my health.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been a patient of Coombs and Brewer DDS since I moved to Carson in 1995. My experience has always been a pleasant. Staff and doctors are always professional and I always receive the kind of service that makes me stay with them. I highly recommend them and would encourage anyone looking for a dentist to consider this group for their quality of service

Experiencia fantástica: Always a good experience at Coombs & Brewer

Experiencia fantástica: The hygienist (l apologize for not knowing her name) did a great job cleaning my teeth. She is also very pleasant. Thank you—Marta Adams

Experiencia fantástica: This was my third visit to see Dr. Brewer. My visit included x-rays, teeth cleaning and exam. All staff, including dental hygienist Leah, were awesome. I would recommend Dr. Brewer to anyone that is looking for a new dentist.

Experiencia fantástica: Good

Experiencia fantástica: Leah was great. Fun and easy going. Dr Coombs is very friendly and the entire office has a very comfortable atmosphere.

Experiencia fantástica: Gina has been my Dental Hygienist for years and she talks to you to understand what is happening in your mouth as well as life to insure she is able to treat any issues you have correctly. Dr. Coombs has always taken his time as well to explain things and he ensures everything feels good in your mouth before he lets you leave the chair. His assistant Teri always makes you feel at home and comfortable, as much as possible in a dentist chair. She would offer you a water or coffee if you werent at the dentist. I would totally recommend this office.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Coombs practice always provides excellent and friendly service! Everyone goes the extra mile to make patients feel comfortable and "at home". They do everything they can to emphasize prevention and no treatment is encouraged without taking the patient's opinion and financial limitations into consideration. I highly recommend Dr. Coombs and Dr. Brewer!

Experiencia fantástica: It waa great. The staff, Shannon and Dr. Coombs were wonderful. Thank you!!!

Experiencia negativa: Unexpected charges: ask questions before your visit. This was my first visit here and my first ever cleaning with this insurance. I was charged for full-mouth and panoramic X-rays that I was told were part of the preventive dental cleaning visit. I was not informed in advance that these X-rays would only be partially covered by insurance or that I would be responsible for a remaining balance. When I questioned the charge, the office stated that insurance only covered part of the bill and that it was not their responsibility because I signed a financial responsibility form. While paperwork may shift liability, patients should still be clearly informed of potential out-of-pocket costs before services are performed (especially when it’s a preventative service like a cleaning when there are usually no out of pocket costs) That did not happen here. Because of the lack of transparency and communication regarding billing, I would not recommend this office.

Experiencia fantástica: I used to be really afraid to go to the dentist until I found Coombes and Brewster! They are wonderful honest dentist’s that do quality work! I can’t recommend them enough. I have never been happier to smile

Experiencia fantástica: Everything about the visit is fantastic, just wonderful people! ditto

Experiencia fantástica: I had a wonderful experience at Coombs & Brewer DDS. Gina was my dental hygienist and was extremely knowledgeable. Both Gina and Dr. Coombs had an excellent bedside manner and answered my questions with honesty. I am very happy to have found a welcoming dental practice.

Experiencia fantástica: We don’t live in Carson City anymore , but we drive 3 plus hours to have our dental care done by these knowledgeable and very caring professionals !! I think that speaks volumes about these people.

Experiencia fantástica: Gina is wonderful! Very professional and thorough in cleaning my teeth! I live in Reno and come to Caron City to see her only! Also, she had a great personality!

Experiencia fantástica: Possible complications made simple. We will be making a prophylactic move to be sure a catastrophic event doesn’t occur.

Experiencia fantástica: From the girls at the front / reception to EVERY BODY great demeanor! Professional and polite! Leah, thank you! Outstanding!

Experiencia negativa: Blown away by the rude receptionist at checkout. I understand she strictly follows policies but you don’t need to be mean about it. Not very professional

Experiencia fantástica: Love my dental office and staff. My teeth and my health are awesome because of Coombs & Brewer! Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional and polite.

Experiencia fantástica: Great staff. Always professional & courteous. Been a patient for 5+ years & always a great experience. Highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: I have been afraid of the dentist since I was a little girl, I had been seeing Dr. Coombs since I was 15yrs old; on and off. I always get into routine of never coming back, then show up years later with multiple problems. He has always been the best, he explains things to me as he goes; answers all my questions and makes sure I’m comfortable the whole time. I don’t know what I would do without him. Thank you.

Experiencia fantástica: Great Dentist very caring and thoughtful he spent time with me great staff and service!

Experiencia fantástica: First I’d like to say I appreciate when an appointment time is kept and I didn’t have to wait a long time. Everyone was friendly and professional. The office is small and friendly, not a huge corporation feel. I like that too. My issue was addressed by Dr Coombs and all my options discussed. I finally found a dentist after shopping around for years!!

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone is very nice and friendly. The hygienist was gentle and comforting while working on my teeth.

Experiencia fantástica: Coombs & Brewer DDS in my opinion is the best. Each & everybody I’ve had the pleasure of meeting & working with has been polite, knowledgeable, understanding and puts you at ease. I don’t dread going to the “Dentist” anymore! Everybody here makes you feel like you’re with family & can be totally yourself.

Experiencia fantástica: Always fabulous!

Experiencia fantástica: Gina is awesome!

Experiencia fantástica: As a new patient, I was a bit nervous. That subsided very quickly. Marly was wonderful and we worked together to get everything accomplished. I made the right choice with Coombs&Brewer!

Experiencia fantástica: Gina is the best dental hygienist I’ve experienced in the Carson/Reno area. She is thorough, but gentle and I can ask her anything about dental care and know that I’m getting an educated answer. I hope she plans on working in her career for a very long time!

Experiencia fantástica: Gina is always professional and focused on proper teeth care. She is personable too which makes the experience comfortable.

Experiencia fantástica: They saved Our Big Retirement Vacation as I the crown on my front tooth came OFF and they came to the rescue and put it back on.

Experiencia fantástica: They are awesome! They always get me in and take care of me. I recommend them hands down!!

Experiencia fantástica: Wonderful office. Great with all age groups!

Experiencia fantástica: Hygienist ( Marlana) was very thorough and meticulous. It was the best cleaning I've ever had.

Experiencia fantástica: lost a front tooth veneer biting my nails. a new veneer in US runs $2000 or more. so I decided to go back to my dentist in Tejuana who put in the veneers 20yrs ago and have them brightened in a six tooth update. but I need to get a new passport which takes awhile. so yesterday Dr. combs (he had reglued another of my veneers about 4yrs ago) rebuilt the tooth using common composite bonding. result is so perfect i'm cancelling Mexico visit. at 1/10 and less the price of the Mexico trip. I've had a lot of dentists and I think Dr. combs is certainly the best.

Experiencia fantástica: Very professional yet friendly!

Experiencia fantástica: Love the staff, great location, but most of all I have the best hygienist this side of the Mississippi.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to Coombs & Brewer for many many years and they have been wonderful! I could not be happier with this place from the Office Staff, Gina the Hygienist and Dr. Coombs the Dentist!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Coombes has a very well run office and Gina is a wonderful hygienist. I’m very thorough.

Experiencia fantástica: quick easy in and out. Very friendly staff.

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience as always.

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience and very friendly

Experiencia fantástica: The most extensive evaluation ever. I have been to no less than 30 dentist throughout the states, it was impressive to find such quality care in a humble facility. Good on them!

Experiencia fantástica: I've been going to Dr. Combs for years. Very professional and does great work. I see Gina for my teeth cleaning. What a fun lady! This place is like family!

Experiencia fantástica: Laura was through and educated me during her exam of me on November 1st. Ken Beaton

Experiencia fantástica: Leah is a great hygenist and did a fantastic pain free exam and cleaning after not cleaning for many years!

Experiencia fantástica: My experience at this office is excellent. From the people at the front desks, to the Dental Hygiene experience with Gena, to Dr Brewer who continues to keep a watchful eye on my troublesome mouth, I am greatly satisfied.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent (as usual)! Gretchen at the front desk was super and Leah did an outstanding job. Great place!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been coming here for years. Everyone is always so friendly and helpful. My hygienist, Gina is the absolute best!

Experiencia fantástica: Very pleasant experience. My hygienist was very thoughtful in explaining every step in the process and was very friendly and considerate to my concerns and questions.

Experiencia fantástica: My first visit was exceptional!

Experiencia negativa: I confirmed in advance with Coombs and Brewer that services would be fully covered under my insurance. Despite this, I was later billed for charges I never agreed to. This is deceptive, unethical, and borders on insurance fraud. Misrepresenting insurance coverage before treatment and attempting to collect afterward constitutes bad faith and possible legal liability. I am considering reporting this to the appropriate regulatory authorities. Proceed with caution.

Experiencia fantástica: Gina is always amazing!

Experiencia fantástica: Great work by Dr. Brewer to reattach an inlay that had come loose. Took longer than anticipated but it was a success. Thanks very much!

Experiencia fantástica: Great people! Clean environment and efficient personnel.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff is very friendly and Gina is amazing!

Experiencia fantástica: We always enjoy the professional & personable treatments at Coombs & Brewer! Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Great dentist and staff. 5 STARS every time.

Experiencia fantástica: Great care. Pleasant people.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent! Dentist and everybody great!

Experiencia fantástica: Leah was great! She explained everything she was doing and anything of concern. Dr. Brewer was wonderful and also explained things well! The staff I encountered were also very professional and great to work with! Will definitely recommend this office!

Experiencia fantástica: Gina was great! Knowledgeable, kind, and easy to engage with. 5 out of 5!

Experiencia fantástica: These guys are by far the most awesomeness dentist in Carson City. If you ask me, Shannon is awesome. She worked a miracle yesterday. Saving my tooth. Highly recommend these guys. Thanks, Shannon .

Experiencia fantástica: Dr.'s Coombs and Brewer are knowledgeable & thorough. Both they are their staff are friendly. My appointment was on time and my cleaning was finished promptly.

Experiencia fantástica: Went for a cleaning. Shannon did a great job. The office runs smoothly.

Experiencia fantástica: Gina Spence and Dr. Coombs do great work and care about their patients. I would recommend anybody who needs dental work to go see them.

Experiencia fantástica: It's been a long time since I've been to the dentist because I've always had really horrible experiences. I was put at ease everybody was friendly and the service was amazing. Thank you Dr Brewer!

Experiencia negativa: On April 18, I had an appointment to get my teeth brightened. Luis introduced himself and I sat in the exam chair. He started by comparing tooth models to the color of mine. Shortly afterward, he proceeded to put a plastic frame/appliance in my mouth. He started the treatments. When he wanted me to turn my head left or right , he used his hand and pushed my chin in the direction he wanted. About half way through, the gums under my lower front teeth started to hurt. He kept working. When he rinsed my mouth, he would leave the vacuum device in my mouth and use his hand to shut my mouth for suction. It was probably during the last treatment and tears starting rolling down my face. He asked if anything was wrong and I tried to tell him but it was difficult to talk with the brace in my mouth. I was extremely relieved to get it out of my mouth and get home. I had 4 patches of rubbed skin in the area that hurt. I rinsed it with hydrogen peroxide for several days. I tried to get a photo (which I have included), but you need to expand it to see a few white spots. I certainly hope your other clients have not experienced this.

Experiencia fantástica: Best Dental Practice in Carson. Staff is happy and positive, environment is beautiful, and the services are outstanding. I actually look forward to dental care.

Experiencia fantástica: As usual, everyone treated me professionally and courteously. My hygienist and made useful recommendations and did an excellent job cleaning my teeth. I couldn’t be more pleased with the care I received at my visit.

Experiencia fantástica: I love the staff at Dr.Coombs office!

Experiencia fantástica: Gina is the absolute BEST person to work on my teeth and I am always delighted when she is available. She is thorough and explains everything, and is always smiling and happy.

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great visit. Everyone is very pleasant and trustworthy and know their stuff! Leah was great at cleaning my teeth today; very nice.

Experiencia fantástica: Went in for a cleaning. Had Leah as the hygienist, and everything went well. She was professional and personable.

Experiencia fantástica: Was taken to exam room quickly. I appreciate the hygienist knowing my name, remembering my “story”, and spending time talking with me. It was a refreshing experience as opposed to a sterile medical procedure. Thank you.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been going to this dentist office for more than 30 years. Obviously they provide very good service. Even as the older dentists retired these new ones are great. My hygienist, Gina is always a delight to see. If your looking for a new dentist you can’t go wrong with Coombs and Brewer!

Experiencia fantástica: Coombs & Brewer DDS is a wonderful Dental Office! It begins with the front end staff, efficient, friendly, and helpful and all with a smile. Then, the dental hygienist, she greeted me with a smile, walked me through what she would be doing, and completed her tasks with the greatest of efficiency, thoroughly cleaned my teeth checking along the way that I wasn't experiencing any discomfort. Finally, the dentist, he too greeted me with a smile, took the time to go over my exrays, explained my present needs, and future care. The office is immaculately clean and the entire staff is incredible. Coombs & Brewer DDS quickly gained my faith in one visit!

Experiencia positiva: offices have been around a long time, even with ownership changes. Quite friendly and helpful and professional

Experiencia fantástica: Great dentist office with nice staff and Dr Coombs is the best !

Experiencia negativa: They called and changed my appointment to an earlier time, the day of the appointment, then when I got to the location they told me they didn’t have enough time to complete the scheduled appointment. I do not feel that this place is professional nor did they seem concerned that they inconvenienced me by having me travel to their location.

Experiencia fantástica: Leah was great. Addressed all my concerns and answered all my questions. Was very attentive the whole time and made sure I wasn’t in any discomfort.

Experiencia fantástica: The best dentist office in town. Super friendly and great at what they do. All of my family members switched over to them and enjoy going to the dentist.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent as usual. Thank you for the cleaning and checkup!

Experiencia fantástica: My dental hygienist, Gina, is the best! She is professional, exceptional and goes above and beyond to perform her job! I am completely satisfied with her cleaning my teeth!

Experiencia fantástica: Gina is great! Always have a positive experience with her.

Experiencia fantástica: I always enjoy my dental appointments.

Experiencia fantástica: This is one of the best dental offices I have ever gone to. They are efficient and kind and make you feel comfortable and welcome. I have been to the office at least 5 times and the staff are always the same!

Experiencia fantástica: Such a friendly office and staff.

Experiencia fantástica: Fast and Friendly, did amazing work I was very happy with the results.

Experiencia fantástica: I'm lazy! I don't post many reviews. I feel compelled to provide five stars to the Coombs and Brewer staff that have provided me excellent service for many years. Bring your children, grandparents and any relative you can imagine and you will get premier service from the nicest, gentlest, friendliest people you can imagine. If my father were still alive, I would insist he give Coombs and Brewer an opportunity to repair years of tooth decay. I have been coming here long enough to give my strongest endorsement. If you're on the fence regarding who to choose as a oral hygiene partner, pick C & B -- you will not regret it. To Ryan, Gina, Stephanie, Gretchen and Teri -- keep smiling!
