Martin A Tahara

Dr Tahare was agitated, quick to dismiss concerns, and visibility upset that we were asking him questions. He kept saying that these issues should have been explained at a previous visit by a previous dentist and he kept bringing up cost. The concern about money was done not in a thoughtful manner but in a belittling, “I don’t have time for this” way. It’s 2021 and I realize everybody has bad days but when you have a vulnerable senior citizen as your patient, someone who has expressed horrible past dental experiences, I’d expect some thoughtfulness and better customer service. Sad thing is that this doctor is “active” in his church.

Very good.

Went for wisdom teeth extraction. He asked me before the surgery if I wanted the teeth to take home and I clearly said YES. After the surgery I went home and my mother and we realized neither one of us had been given the extracted teeth. She called and told the receptionist that Dr Tahara had forgotten to send the teeth along with us home. The next day they said they were disposed of. My father called, and Dr Tahara contradicted me and said I had said NO, and declined. My father said that was not possible because we had discussed this as a family before I went to see him. Dr Tahara was indifferent and standoffish and refused to take responsibility for a mistake or a misunderstanding. He acted as if was above it all and unable to acknowledge he may have erred. This doctor Is not one I would believe has has your best interests in mind. He proved to be arrogant, artificial, and indifferent. I suspect I will never receive an apology.

He does not listen just makes his own judgement about what you are experiencing. I could literally see him tuning me out when I explained my symptoms.

I accompanied my wife to have her painful wisdom tooth extracted. In the office just prior to the procedure we had questions about the 2-page legal form she was asked to sign listing numerous potential complications. No doubt we were anxious. Dr. Tahara chose not to address out concerns, exhibited a short fuse, abruptly walked saying 'you're done here' and disappeared. My wife and I were left stunned.

I had a molar extracted a few weeks ago and I'm still waiting for the pain. His work was excellent and quick. It was a very comfortable setting and both the Dr. and his assistant provided a relaxed atmosphere and were top notch in every respect! I hope I don't need a tooth pulled any time soon but if I do - it will be Dr Tahara. I highly recommend him.

My visit was great except for Dr Tahara. The staff and assistants were courteous and compassionate. Dr. Tahara on the other hand was rude, arrogant and completely uncompassionate. He removed a wisdom tooth that turned into a dry socket. I had to go into the office twice to have the spaced packed with medicated gauze, both times he was not present. On the third visit when he was present he informed me the dry socket was my fault and he was not going to pack it any longer and he would not provide and type of pain medication. I cannot begin to tell you how much of a piece of crap he made me feel like. The dry socket was not my fault, and he shouldve let it be packed as many times as needed to help alleviate the pain. I had already missed 1.5 days of work due to the pain and he made me feel like a drug addict when I asked about pain medication. I can assure you I will never again allow this man to touch me or my family. His partner Dr Johnson who I saw when the dry socket first occurred was very courteous and caring. I would see him again if he wasnt associated with Tahara.
