Mc Bride Michael Z

So nice and helpful. Can't say enough good about this dentist office. Completely modern and updated but still a good nice vibe for even me who was super nervous about going in.

I went to my appointment with Dr McBride in early October expecting to speak with Dr McBride about numerous dental implants needed. Instead was met with Dr Thai - probably misspelled but pronounced 'Thai'. I'm not sure if she was a doctor or a clinician. And as best as I could determine, she has little to no experience in oral surgery.

The office makes a big deal out of being 'Medicare certified'. This is BS in my opinion based on other dentists I have seen who also provide medical billing here in San Diego County. Every dentist I have spoken with who offer Medicare billing use an outside 3rd party to do the medical billing for them. Dr McBride's third party biller - Moore Martini Medical - https://www.mooremartinimedical.com/ - provides the absolute least amount of financial coverage.

By being 'Medicare Certified', the inference is that they have some authority in knowing what Medicare will and will not pay for and it's just not true. Any dental office can offer Medicare billing as long as the billing to Medicare is properly done. The variance in what Medicare will cover is in which 3rd party is doing the billing.

I have been to this office to have teeth put back into my denture with no problems. Today I needed to have the front tooth put back in so I could look human and was told it would be Thursday. I told the receptionist the doctor didn't need to see me because I didn't see him last time which was in April or May but she didn't even try to help me. I ended up going to the dentist my insurance covers which is twice as much money and I have to go without teeth until tomorrow. I feel she could have been a little more compassionate.

I went to this high pressure cooker for a consultation with Dr Mcbride and tag team. Copious amount of paperwork which can be expected. After awhile I was X-rayed and led into this small room were there was a HUGE flat screen TV with my X-ray glaring at me! I'm in my 70's and know I needed to have work done. Anyway, they let me sit in that small room for a good 15 minutes.

They were'nt busy at all. There was a keyboard and mouse. I immediately turned off the screen. So called Dr Mcbride with an assistant marched in equipped with the "pitch."I've been in Sales all my life and suspected there would be an intimidating bunch of crap. I was right. The grouchy old dude went on to tell me that I would have to wear full dentures for a years life exectancy at $850 and would have to have full upper and lower arch implants for $30,000 at that time!" I also have a used car in the back for sale!" I almost went off on this "thing"but kept my cool.

Since that time, I went to an honest Dentist and recieved beautiful partial dentures for around $2000. I was treated with respect. Don't go to this clown Mcbride. Disregard all his advertising and go to a decent, honest Dentist.

Worst patient care! This dental practice is only about obtaining as much money as possible from your dental insurance and not about providing quality dental patient care. As a disabled veteran being sent through the VA community care program my experience with Dr. McBride from my initial visit was a complete and utter disappointment on how he treats patients.

My enamel erosion (due to GERD and acid reflux) was accused by Dr. McBride towards taking opioids which I have never taken even after explaining my medical condition. Next due to his billing office not submitting the correct documents to the VA, my appointments were rescheduled because they had not received reimbursement from the VA. The final and most recent experience had me come to his practice thinking I was being seen for a crown, only to be told he had not received payment from the VA and that I needed to work with his billing technician about contacting the VA and getting reimbursed and no treatment was rendered. Needless to say I wasted my time coming into his office under the guise of an appointment only to be told I would not be treated. Truly disappointed with my experience and being treated as a second class citizen after serving and defending our country for 26 years.

The absolute best dentist I have ever seen. From the very attentive, caring and capable staff to Dr. McBride himself. This is a very well run office. If you have any dental needs I highly recommend McBride Dental!

Jim Downes visited McBride dental Monday, 9/14/20 because I saw his ad on TV about being the only dentist in San Diego county that works with medicare Not so. The initial exam was free. Jim gave them his Medicare card and they told him after the initial visit that it. He wasn't covered for further services thru medicare. I drove him there and saw the ad on TV again just now!

What does the dentist do that he advertised he is the only medicare cover dentist in San Diego county? What does he cover under medicare? Until that is made clear on his ad, people are not getting the correct story. While I was in the waiting room, a man tried to make an appointment in person. He said he heard the ad on TV! He was told to take some forms and call in for an appointment! What is happening with the Medicare card # Jim handed in that is very private? Is this a scam to get medicare #'s?

A great dental office! All personnel were professional, extremely competent, and pleasant. Dr Mcbride is very personable and understanding. Prices are very reasonable.

Went to my "regular" dentist on a Monday due to a cracked lower denture. My dentist no longer had a dental lab on premises, and would have to send denture out for repair. He said it would take three weeks. I looked online for a Dentist in North County with a dental lab on premises. I found Dr. McBride and went to his office on Thursday as a "walk in". An hour and a half later I walked out of his office, not only with a repaired denture, but reinforced with a stainless steel band.

Better and stronger than the original denture. Even though I was not one of his patients, he took care of me as if I had been going to him for years. The entire staff was caring and helpful at every step. Thank you Dr. McBride, and your staff, for everything you did for me.

Dr. McBride and his talented team are awesome! Professional and caring, my entire family utilize his services. Dr. McBride has state of the art equipment, the ability to make your crown in the office during your appointment also offers teeth straightening products. Always a pleasure going to the dentist.

Finally found a dentist I can trust! The office staff are professional and caring. They are working with me to correct a bad situation with another dentist office. Finally feeling like I will be able to live without denture pain.

I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars. I absolutely hate dental work that's why I waited so long to have any done. But the staff and the doctor here made me feel so welcome and comfortable and confident in everything they have done for me. I had my wisdom teeth pulled this past week and had absolutely no pain and hardly any swelling. Which is the total opposite of what I expected. I'm so thankful to had found this place thank you thank you Dr. Mcbride and every team member! You guys are awesome!

I am not a patient of the McBride Dental Group, however I question their potential marketing techniques - our home received a telephone call from their office (760) 471-1341 at 3:44am on Thursday, May 10th. Needless to say, woke up the household. I wrote to the email provided on the McBride website, and have not received a response some 24+ hours after I sent it. Hoping this was a mistake, made our lives nonetheless awful with the disruption, and I can't get a response? I also sent them a screen shot of my computer that showed the time the call was received, the number (above), etc.

Oh my gosh I love this place! I work at better buzz and Mrs. Vidia's would come regularly so that is how I found out about this place. My first clean up was such a nice experience. I got offered chapstick, water, some detail education, and probably the best customer service. It's a really family feel experience where I am super comfortable.

I got my wisdom teeth out here too and after the operation the doctor personally called me to see if I was doing good. Mrs. Vidia also called me to check up on me. They really care about their patients and I have blue cross PPO insurance so a lot gets covered here. Payments are easy to make here. I go to school in Northern California and anytime im here I make an appointment because they make me get excited to be back!

Dr. McBride and his staff are absolutely the best! From the moment you walk into their facility you get the feeling the quality of service you're going to get is exactly what you expect. They are extremely state-of-the-art. To me it's incredible you can walk into a place and in no time at all walk back out with a brand new solid Porcelain Crown that's been custom-made. My family and myself have been coming to McBride Dental now for a couple years and I couldn't be happier that we made the switch to McBride Dental.

I have been going to McBride Dental for almost 3 years now. Tasha, my dental hygienist, does an amazing job. As many of us are, I am not a big fan of going to the dentist. Every time I have a cleaning, though, I realize there's no need for these apprehensions. Tasha does a thorough job, while being gentle. Vidia in the front office is awesome! She is super helpful answering questions and a generally fun, happy person. Everything in the office and exam rooms is always clean. Easy to get to in San Marcos with plenty of parking.

Dr. McBride is the best dentist I have had in over 50 years. The office staff are very professional and friendly and the on site lab puts out excellent workmanship and quality. Dr. McBride is a very nice guy who really cares for his patients. Would rate 6 stars if I could.

Fantastic Dentist! Fantastic Staff! Great concern for your health, and comfort. State of the art office - keeping up with new training and technology. They help you prioritize your treatment schedule to fit your financial ability. McBride Dental office is a Trustworthy, Incredible facility that will leave you with a Great Smile!

While I was in dental school I had a tooth that was done by a previous dentist that ended up needing a root canal. I had it done then the tooth became extremely infected and caused me so much pain. That dentist wanted almost $500 to pull the tooth because there was no saving it. I called Dr. McBrides office and they got me in right away and pulled it for a fraction of the cost.

I was so appreciative for his help. The workers there were amazing and so kind. I have since referred many people to him. They have all been happy! They thank me all the time for referring to him. I am now a dental assistant and have tried in the past to even work there because the atmosphere and care is AMAZING! Of course they never need help.probably due to the fact they are all so awesome and love working there so much to never want to leave so there is never an opening! Hehe. I shall keep trying. Thank you so much!

Dr McBride saw me right away as a new patient. The staff was super nice and the office very modern. I will be getting a crown and am looking forward to having it made while I wait so it will be a 1 visit affair.

Your smile is arguably the most important thing you have. It's something people see every day and should be something you find confidence in. Unfortunately that has not been the case after my visit to Dr. McBride. After getting a crown replacement large amounts of cement were left in my gumline causing my bone and gums to die. According to Dr. McBride everything was fine. however when I went to another dentist for a cleaning it was evident that there was major problems with the crown and I was advised to have immediate oral surgery to remove the cement left behind by Dr. McBride.

The pain and suffering I've endured as a result of this horrible crown is something I will never forget for the rest of my life. My advice to anyone reading this would be to go to an office with more experience and lack of turmoil from disgruntled employees.

I just got my teeth cleaned but I like Mc Bride Dental office and I like Dr. Mc Bride as well. Can't say enough good things about his office!

Best DDS I know of in North County San Diego. Clean office, modern equipment, great staff and highly ethical.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS DENTIST! Unless you like throwing money away, enjoy pain and have time to burn sitting in a dental chair to have work redone, then this is the practice for you. I have had 4 implants and 3 crowns performed by this office, and over half of the work had to be redone because it failed due to shoddy workmanship. And, the work that didn't fail, I wish it had because it is an eyesore. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

I had a dental emergency just before Christmas and needed immediate attention, before I headed out of town for a couple of weeks. I knew my regular dentist wouldn't be able to help, so I called around to dentists in the greater San Diego area that had labs on site. They all said they could help, but it would take two weeks, and a couple of thousand dollars.

I then called McBride Dental, and they said to come in, and it would take a couple of hours. I was a little skeptical, but I went. Two hours, and two hundred dollars later, I was good to go. It made my vacation much more enjoyable. From the front office staff, to the dental technician, Dr. McBride, and the lab technicians, all were unbelievably fantastic. Five stars is just not enough to do them justice

All went well at first. Then I saw I was being overcharged and many billing mistakes (e.g. billed for procedures on dates I wasn't there!) Also, when I asked Dr. McBride abt. this (it was on the overhead above me, while I was draped in his dental chair, he began to yell, "Ask Mryna, that's all wrong, that's not you!" Yet my name was clearly on the chart shown on the overhead.

He continued his tirade and I left in tears. Myrna couldn't find my correct billing, it took over six months (and 2 phone calls from me for them to send me an incorrect invoice for my implant and a filling. I would NOT recommend this service to anyone. Especially without insurance. I was assured I was getting a 'cash discount' but it for a billing charged me, on a day I wasn't there! My suggestion, caveat emptor, or buyer beware. Try someone else. BTWay, I'm still disputing the bill they send me.
