Dr Coates and his team are unrivaled. I had moved away from Cali several years ago and was lost my amazing SF Bay Area dentist and had a hard time prioritizing a dentist for many years - recently I moved down to Long Beach and my sister in law recommended seeing Dr Coates. I’m so happy I have - his team - Carla is spot on with appointments, reminders and is a wizard with insurance. Stephanie is the assistant I see most often and acts like Coates left hand in the “inspection” room (sorry don’t know what that is called lol). And Dr. Coates himself - gentle, pain averse, swift and deft with his hands and is a true perfectionist - I couldn’t be more happier with this awesome team. I have had two crowns - one ancient one replaced that I was terrified of dealing with - painless. I don’t know how he does it. And another new crown I needed. I have another partial one due. But rather than slamming all these costs at you upfront and pressuring you - the approach is to be transparent with the “risk” for each tooth that needs help, so you can determine what fits your insurance/pocket. This was another fear I had in finding a new dentist - as my last east coast one tried to sell me on all sorts of silliness. Thanks Dr Coates and team. Y’all do make a difference.

I highly recommend visiting Dr. Coates office for ANY dental needs. I have been in for multiple visits and just recently had to have a missing tooth replaced. I needed help quickly before beginning an important new job and not only was Dr. Coates able to help me within the time frame, he also delivered amazing quality work. I have so much more confidence in my smile after visiting his office. Additionally the staff members, Sandy, Vanessa, and Karla are all highly knowledgeable, friendly, able to make me feel more than comfortable and answered all the questions I had. I will be back and will continue to recommend Dr. Coates office to all of my family and friends. BEST Dentist ever!
