I had my deep cleanings done here and had a great experience! Everyone at Carmichael Dentistry is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Shari has been my hygienist for a couple of years and she has been fantastic! They are attentive, gentle, and thorough here. The front desk, as well as the other hygienists are no exception. Would definitely recommend this dental office.

It is an excellent place, always providing outstanding and high-quality service. Easy to schedule and reschedule appointments. There are no hidden services and payments; always explain what and how it will do. The doctor and front are always open to answer questions and explain anything in detail.

I just came back from Dr. Carmichael dental clinic and I was pleasantly surprised by the great staff and the wonderful dentist Natalya who took care of me. Additionally, the hygiene doctor Will was amazing and has given the best dental cleaning ever!!! Thank you.

It’s hard to find an honest, talented and meticulous dentist anytime you want. I was lucky that after visiting several dentists in San Diego, I was able to find Dr. Natalya and see in her the talent I was looking for! She’s an amazing dentist who will treat you with care and finesse. She will be my go to dentist finally and I recommend her for anyone looking for a great result and dental care.

I’ve been coming to this dental office for about 3-yrs now and they’ve always been incredibly thorough in their treatment and care. Being a queer person it can sometimes be uncomfortable to find a new medical/dental office and I have never had any feelings of discomfort in this office. I have and will continue to recommend this office to anyone in the area

I have been going to this office for several years now and every visit has been amazing.From the front office to back office, everything has been outstanding! In my opinion this office sets the bar and the doctor Natalya Carmichael is the best. I do not see myself going anywhere else ever. All of my friends and family also go here and are very much happy.

UPDATE!!!I had my fillings done, and I'm thrilled with the results. Dr. Carmichael and Will were exceptional. The procedure was painless, and their expertise made me feel at ease throughout. I'm feeling good now, just a bit sore. I'm grateful for their excellent care and highly recommend them to anyone needing dental work.I haven't seen a dentist in over 10 years. I've always been afraid and ashamed of going because of my own lack of care for my oral hygiene. But the staff are the best. They helped me develop and explain a treatment plan that was not only wonderful and easy to understand but also fit my budget.They sat me in the room. Will was the kind gentleman who took care of my deep cleaning and x-rays. He helped calm my nerves while working very intensely on many years of plague and stains that were caked onto my teeth.Afterward, Dr. Carmichael and the front staff explained to me the follow-up procedures that were needed in the upcoming months. The entire time I felt well taken care of, and I am eager to make another appointment in the future. Highly recommend taking your whole family for a cleaning or any oral procedures that you need!

My husband and I have been dental patients here for a little over 6 years. The cleanings are done thoroughly and Dr. Carmichael's office staff are easy to work with. They spent time and went to bat for us on contacting our insurance to resolve issues.

I am looking forward to my next appointment.

I came to Dr. Carmichael for a chipped tooth, my primary dentist was closed and all the way up in Temecula. Dr. Carmichael and her staff were able to get me in next day for X-rays and an exam, then just a few days later for a cleaning and my filling for the chipped tooth. They are kind, courteous, and most efficient. Dr. Carmichael did an amazing job on my filling for the chipped tooth, she is a skilled artist in her trade and now my primary dentist. Thank you!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Dr. Carmichael at her dental practice, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the exceptional service and results. From the moment I reached out for an appointment, their team accommodated me promptly and managed to schedule me in for the very next day! The entire experience was marked by efficiency and professionalism. The waiting time was minimal, which further demonstrated their respect for my time and commitment to providing excellent service. The both the procedures for getting temporary and permanent crowns were painless and stress-free. I couldn't be happier with the outcome—the crown looks and feels just like my natural tooth, restoring both my smile and my confidence. Not only did the team at Carmichael DDS address the immediate issue, but they also took the time to explain to me the process and answer all my questions with patience and clarity. Their commitment to patient education was evident, and it made me feel like an active participant in my dental care. Thank you to Dr. Carmichael and the entire team for your dedication to exceptional dental care and their commitment to patient satisfaction.

Honestly, I’m afraid of dentists!! But Natalya is amazing! She’s kind, honest and all round professional. Pablo is AWESOME!! When I say he makes you feel comfortable and at home, he really does. He takes care of the work in the background and he always reassures you no matter what. He too takes care of you. The team are great in all aspects. My fear is going away and my comfort levels have sky rocketed! They’re an amazing office of individuals.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Carmichael for about a year now.

I had to have a crown for the first time at 60+ years of age and was somewhat apprehensive about the procedure. Dr. Carmichael and her staff were extremely kind and understanding. They explained every step of the process which helped to relieve my anxiety. During the procedure, they made sure that I did not feel any pain and reassured me that everything was going great. Yesterday when I went back for the permanent crown, Dr. Carmichael spent a significant amount of time with me making sure that it fit perfectly. Everyone in the office is friendly and easy going. We are lucky to have Dr. Carmichael and her caring staff in our community!

While going to dentist can be a traumatic experience know that Dr. Carmichael is excellent at what she does. She’s taken over for Dr. Codington which recently retired and I’ve been going to him since 1982. I truly believe that Dr. Codington as left us in GREAT hands.Dr. Carmichael will provide us all the same experience that Dr. CODINGTON has provided with additional technology with ex-rays showing us the before and after results which will show us all the educational information that we need in maintaining a healthy teeth and gummes. Happy smiles to ALL.Don

Dr. Carmichael is a wonderful addition to Dr. Codington's practice. He did a great job finding someone who would take great care of his patients. She explained the procedures that I needed and helped me understand why a crown was necessary The front desk girls helped me find a way to pay for my crown in an affordable way. Gloria is a wonderful assistant who took great care of me while having my work done.

Dr. Carmichael was AMAZING! I have some very serious dental anxiety, and not only did she LITERALLY hold my hand, she explained everything she was doing (and why), and then went over my action plan very thoroughly. I had to switch from my longtime dentist for insurance reasons-he was very good, and I had come to not flinch any time he put a top in my mouth. I am SO glad his office doesn't accept my plan anymore-he was great, but Dr. Carmichael and her staff are outstanding!
