Testimonials

I've been going to Dr. Spencer's office for almost 15 years now and they have always had outstanding customer service. On Monday, Taylor took her time to answer all of my questions and concerns with patience and kindness. She even helped me put on my favorite show to watch while she cleaned my teeth! Thank you to the whole staff for making my teeth cleaning experience so enjoyable.

Another great experience at the dentist today. Ashley, my dental hygienist, is very thorough. She is outstanding. This office is beautiful & I really like the massage chair. La Jolla can be very busy but they have free parking in the parking structure. I regularly refer people to Dr Spencer. 5 stars

Great office. Dr. Spencer and all his staff are always a pleasure. Appreciate how they run on time and don't try to push me into treatments I don't want. Taylor is great for cleanings--quick, painless, and fun. I'm amazed at how she remembers everything we talked about 6 months ago. The best!
