I've had the BEST dental experience here. I have had bad and painful experiences with other dentists in the past, I got referred here by my friend to get fillings first and later extractions. Coming from bad experiences at other dental offices I was very nervous, but to my surprise my visit was very pleasant. I came once for 3 fillings and had no pain, a few months later I went back for my extractions and had a great experience as well. I was very nervous, but I was in and out in one hour.Dr. ram and her assistant francis were AMAZING! They took such good care of me. They worked so well together and were both so sweet and caring. Everyone in the office was professional and nice. The whole thing went quick, painless and perfect. They work with my insurance and if there is something my insurance doesn't cover they will work with the price and give you a reasonable price! Definitely recommend this place to everyone!

Really informative and honest. He really took the time to consult and I didn’t feel pushed. Prices are reasonable.

This was my first meeting with Dr. Zand and I found him to be very knowledgeable and friendly along with the other people in his great staff of professionals. A very good experience all around.

Dr Hurt you and your staff are tops. Thank you for always being there when I need you. It's hard for me to make appointment but when I have an opening you always seem to fit me in. I really appreciate that!

Amazing Dentist! Explains everything thoroughly! His staff is amazing and friendly! I love the fact that they go over the treatment plan (showing cost) before starting any procedures. Being a college student I need to know an estimate of my expenses before doing anything! They are great when working with my insurance and stretching out the usage of it! Thank you so much! You guys are awesome! I have referred my entire family here, even my cousins from San Diego; they drive 45 minutes to San Marcos to get their teeth done here! OH, and I love the fact that the hygienist Mina, who is already amazing does a 50 min regular teeth cleaning instead of the normal average of 30 minutes. At other dentist office I feel like they rush it! This is the first time I learned about getting numbers on my gum level to make sure I don't have big pockets or gum disease. Learned something new, and I feel like she takes her time and care on me! My official new dentist! Thank you San Marcos Dental Center

If you are looking for an established, highly experienced, competent dentist, Dr. Hurt is your man. I have had alot of dental work done and to me he works very fast. I have had more than one root canal and didn't have any problems. In addition, his staff is excellent and this is extremely important.

Excellent care, excellent staff. I do not regret switching from my old dentist to Dr. Hurt. Like comparing Apples and Oranges. Thank you so much for the amazing care.

I feel that Dr. Hurt genuinely cares about people. I told him that I developed a fear of the needle and the drill because I have extremely soft teeth and had a new cavity almost every time I visited my childhood dentist. All my molars had crowns by age 18. I had nightmares of losing all of my teeth someday and wearing dentures. Dr. Hurt could have made a lot of money off of me but, since I started seeing him, he and his staff make sure I come in for my regular check-ups on time. He looks over my entire chart, takes digital Xrays (less radiation) if I'm due for them, and does a very thorough exam.

I just went to see Dr. Greg Hurt for my root-canal that had not been done properly by another dentist. I had no pain from the beginning to the end during the entire procedure. It was fantastic. I highly recommend him to anyone or any of my friends. Thank you, Dr. Hurt.

Best Dentist period. Dr. Hurt helped correct some bad work by another dentist and I was able to avoid a root canal in another tooth. Dr Hurt is so freindly and reassuring and makes someone feel very comfortable about any procedure. Listens very intently to any concerns you might have. Nice ladies with smiles at the front take care of you. Trust me this is the best dentist you will ever find. Everthing is done here so you know the quality will be high and consistent. Thank You so much!!!

I've been a long-time "hater" of dental services but realize they're a necessary "evil", & have never seemed to be able to find the "right" dentist for me...until now! This is the 2nd dentist I've been referred to that lived-up to the hype (the 1st was too busy to accept new patients). As much as I hate dental work, I find myself actually looking forward to revisiting the good people of San Marcos Dental Center! I doubt I will ever enjoy dental work, but if I must go, thank God for the people at San Marcos Dental Center!

It was the most pleasant visit I've had to the dentist. Dr. Hurt was quick and despite of his name, It didn't hurt that bad.

Having recently relocated to San Diego North county, I searched for a new dentist. Responding to a Penny Saver ad and in need of a cleaning, I reached out to San Marcos Dental Center. The staff was very pleasant, helpful and professional. The care I received was excellent and will definitely plan a second appointment for continued dental care.

Dr. Hurt and his dental assistant work so well together with confidence and expertise that my experience in the dental chair is relaxed and comfortable. I like the progressive comments about how the procedure is going - it helps me to know everything is going according to plan. Most importantly, there is very little, if any, discomfort once the "numb" goes away.
