I was referred to Dr. Penn by my primary dentist because he diagnosed a dental problem I was having as needing a root canal. Upon examination by Dr. Penn, she advised that although a root canal would probably provide temporary relief, the tooths root could be damaged and the tooth would need removal. She offered to refer me to an oral surgeon for a second opinion, and did not charge me for her consultation. This is the sign of a consummate professional, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.I also agree with other reviews that the office staff is any doctors office I have visited. They are extremely friendly and professional.

Cannot express enough thanks to Dr. Penn and her staff! They were able to get me in for my root canal and once there we discovered I actually needed two.I have never had a root canal before and was pretty nervous.They took great care of me and were wonderful. Jada was amazing and reassuring and made sure I was comfortable the whole time. The office was clean and enviting with ample parking. I definitely recommend this office and all the wonderful ladies that work there :)

The office staff was awesome! They were very nice and professional and when when I asked them to put me on a cancellation list I was happily surprised when they called me back and said they had a cancelation.The dentist and her assistant were very good. Nothing hurt and the dentist made sure that that I was comfortable at all times. You could tell with the precision of her hands and the way she worked she was good dentist.I would definitely recommend her and go back for any other dentle work needed.

Outstanding service, professionals through and through. Had a wonderful visit recently to repair a chipped molar and a root canal. I was very nervous as this was my first time having a root canal especially at a new location for us since we moved to Brentwood, but I couldn’t be any happier with their service, how reassuring they were, and most importantly the results! Dr. Christina Penn and assistant Taylor were absolutely fantastic and such rock stars! Thank you so very much for everything. :)

Dr Penn and her team were awesome! This was my first root canal and I was kind of nervous about it after hearing horror stories from friends about theirs. The team was fun to work with, put me at ease, and Dr Penn made the whole thing completely painless!!All in all a great experience!!

Absolutely amazing! They went above and beyond to make sure I was ok. They took me in for an emergency root canal right as they were closing and did everything they could to make me comfortable and to get me out of pain. They called me the following days after my root canal to make sure I was feeling better. And even sent me a card signed by all of their staff. Would definitely recommend!!!! Thank you Dr Penn and staff for everything you did for me!!!!

From the moment I was referred to Dr. Penn’s office, I was treated with so much kindness and care. Dr. Penn and staff are extremely patient and they really care about their patients. This was my first root canal and I have dental anxiety, so I came with alot of fear about having this procedure done. I am so grateful for how they took such good care of me from beginning to end. Dr. Penn and staff took the time to answer all my questions before & even followed up with me post procedure. Just amazing! Thank you so much Dr. Penn and staff!

This office is full of nice funny caring staff. Dr Penn is the best. I highly recommend this dental office. I had a root canal no pain after the procedure and they called to see how I was doing. Love love them

Review №19

PAINLESS!! Seriously! Don’t believe the horror hype about root canal procedures. Just go see Dr Penn!!2020 was gracious enough to also bless me with the need for two root canals, the first in my life. AND I couldn’t get both done at the same time. To say I was nervous would be an understatement. I heard all the horror stories just like everyone else!! I had the most wonderful dental experiences of my life, not joking! On one occasion I was the first procedure of the day and the first one at the office. I was greeted by three staff members of the office who all invited me in and made me feel comfortable. I was even offered coffee or eat by someone who I later learned was Dr. Penn herself. Her assistant Jada was fantastic and walked me through every step of the process. The only part of the procedure was the small pinch of a shot at the very beginning of the procedure. I didn’t feel anything else the entire time! I wish I could see Dr Penn for all my dental needs but she only does root canals.I recommend Dr Penn AND her entire staff to anyone shopping around for a doctor who can do a painless root canal procedure.IT’S POSSIBLE!!

Dr Penn is amazing! My first root canal and I am so happy with her services. Dr Penn is a skilled proffessional and an absolute miracle worker. If I ever need another root canal, I will go straight to her. I didnt feel a thing and my tooth feels so much better. Thank you :)

From the moment I walked in to the office I felt comfortable. The office is clean the front desk staff is friendly and courteous. I was nervous about the procedure and the staff and the doctor made me feel at ease. They even sent me a thank you card thanking me for coming to their office Ive never had that before...Wow! Excellent customer service and a wonderful experience. I feel at ease having to go back for my next procedure.

Dr Penn and the office staff is amazing and I am glad I came! Normally I would not say that, but anytime you get a root canal and leave smiling and feeling very little discomfort that is a wonderful thing!If I could use this office for all my dental needs I would. They are the best!

After battling problematic dental problems for nearly two years due to a misdiagnosis by a different Dr., I was desperate for answers and Diablo Endodontics provided just that. They were immediately receptive, professional, empathetic and made extra effort to evaluate and accommodate the specifics of my situation. First off, they responded to the urgency of my call immediately and scheduled me the very next morning. Their staff displayed an exceptional combination of professionalism, friendliness and efficiency in processing my paperwork leaving me with no responsibility for follow up with my primary dentist or the insurance company - they took care of everything! They evaluated my level of pain to ensure it was manageable before taking any action during treatment and constantly were informing me of the next steps. The personalism displayed left me convinced that the level of care for their patients was that of a family member. Along with their high level of expertise and precision, I was able to move forward and resolve my long looming dental issues entirely. I would highly recommend Diablo Endodontics and cant stress how appreciative I am for such care!

After hearing all of the nice things my dentist had to say about Dr. Penn and the quality of work she does; the choice was an easy one. When I arrived the office staff was very welcoming and kind. Their customer service was second to none. There was coffee and refreshments and relaxing music. All of the work performed was painless and everything was explained to me. If I ever need a root canal again I will make sure to come here and you should too!

Review №34

Very professional! Surprised how painless my root canal was. I’m sure we all heard stories about how root canals hurt, well not at this place because of their extensive knowledge of the procedure. From the front desk staff to Dr.Penn I was genuinely impressed. I hope I don’t have to get another root canal or at least anytime soon but if the time comes I can say I got a place. 😁

Great Office and Staff! I was very nervous but the staff did a lot to help me relax. Procedures were well explained, I was provided a stress tooth to squeeze and hold during the root canal, a neck pillow, and mouth prop to help my mouth stay open without stressing my muscles. They also placed an x-ray cape on me which felt like a weighted blanket! During the procedure they said I could stop them anytime, but things went smoothly and I didnt feel the need to! Lets face it.. no one wants to be there, but the office staff made me feel like I was the most important person there! They took a situation that I had nightmares about and turned it into something I wont be worried about next time!

Review №39

I had the usual annoyance and trepidation that comes along with your first root canal, not to mention the discomfort beforehand, but Dr. Penn and her staff treated me with the utmost courtesy and professionalism at every stage including scheduling calls with Jenn and Donna, handling me at the office, answering questions, the procedure itself, discharge instructions, and follow-up. I figure they also did a great job technically but can’t speak to that since I’m not the dentist. I do know I didn’t feel any pain during the procedure and and they did everything they could to minimize my discomfort during my time in the chair. As a professional, one thing that meant a lot to me was how Dr. Penn treated her staff with courtesy and respect, and how her staff (particularly assistants Taylor and Jenn) were friendly and down to earth. I will unhesitatingly recommend them to friends and family and they will be my first resource should I need this experience again (which I hope I don’t).

I dread root canals...until I was referred to Dr. Dobin! He is amazing, compassionate and highly skilled! Taylor, his dental assistant, is great and Ellen is a real comfort and puts you right at ease while Dr. Dobin numbs you up. Dr. Dobin explains everything clearly, and is always asking if you’re doing okay during the procedure. Tests are performed to make sure you are totally numb so you don’t feel a thing, and before you know it it’s over! I couldn’t believe it, the whole procedure was totally painless! I will not hesitate and again delay getting a root canal as long I am in the hands of Dr. Dobin and his awesome staff!

Dr Penn was so well mannered! She made me feel comfortable throughout the entire procedure and it was painless. The office was so clean and all of the staff were so friendly and always smiling. They treated me like family from the second I walked in the door. I highly recommend this office as everyone here is top notch. I would drive by ten other offices to go to this one if I need more work done.

Dr. Dobin and his staff are friendly and professional. I had a horribly painful tooth abscess that needed to be treated as soon as possible. Thank goodness he was able to squeeze me into his busy schedule for a root canal. I was very happy that the procedure was quick (less than an hour).

Can I put six stars?! The girls who work here are so nice. My daughter got an xray done and the woman who helped was so caring. Even when I booked the appointment the girl who answered the phone was so helpful and worked around my schedule (I could tell it wasnt what was best for them that day but they still fit us in). This office is also very high with their technology!

I was referred to Dr. Penn after discovering I needed a root canal ASAP. I was in a lot of pain and her office got me in right away. I was extremely nervous w/ this being my 1st root canal and the thought of anything touching my throbbing tooth. The staff were so incredibly helpful and broke everything cost and procedure wise with me down. Dr. Penn is very nice and did a great job explaining everything she would be doing to my tooth and if I needed her to stop raise my hand. She periodically stopped during the procedure to check on me and give me a break. After it was done she double checked on me and advised me to take the NSAIDS provided to avoid any unwanted pain that day. Her staff checked on me the following day and wanted to know how I was doing. Overall my whole experience was amazing and I could not be happier with the outcome considering I went in such a mess. I highly recommend her and her staff if you want great service and professionalism!!

Today was my second visit to Diablo View Endodontics and I was treated by Dr. Christina Penn, DMD, PC and I have to say that she was very professional and understanding. She has a BIG HEART and obviously enjoys what she does which is helping and treating her patients. I did not experience any discomfort or pain during my appointment. When I needed a break - she had no issue stopping and allowing me to take a break before she proceeded with my treatment. This was my first time receiving treatment from Dr. Penn and would HIGHLY recommend her to you. Her assistant is also GREAT making them both team players! I will apologize in advance that I can’t remember her name but the entire office staff is very friendly and caring. No one looks forward to having a root canal, but I can assure you that my experience has been WONDERFUL! Thank you Dr. Penn and Diablo View Endodontics!

This was my first root canal and I thought I was going to be extremely nervous, but it ended up my easiest, dental, procedure yet. Super comfortable setting with a very welcoming staff that eliminated my dental dread. Dr Dobin explained the process as he worked and took all the nervous anticipation out of the experience and even after a week I felt no pain.I highly recommend everything about this practice.

**After reading all of these good reviews I decided to give Diablo View Endodontics a try. These reviews are spot on! The procedure was painless, Dr Penn was so kind and they even called just to check on me the day after. This place really worked hard to make sure I had a great experience. I have had a root canal elsewhere before and there is a huge difference going to an office like this! I would never go to a different office if I need another root canal. Thank you to my dentist for recommending them and thank you team diablo view!!!

Hello to any one who might NOT enjoy sitting in the dentist chair. I am LMT (masseuse )and enjoy bring relief to clients and love getting wonderful (FUN) treatments back when I have a chance to trade with another LMT. I dont deal with pain well and have a low tolerance to pain. I choose to laugh and giggle and not sit still. I appreciate when some has a gift of doing their job well and takes pride in being the best they can be. That is what I found at Dr. Penns office. I am also a professional clown and love laughing and making kids and people happy. I found the office staff to be professional but totally fun to be around. Also I work with kids at risk where one needs to be selflessness a lot of the time. Tyler... Dr. Penns assistance gave up her lunch hour to work on me as I came in crying with and in bad , so much pain., That showed how caring the team is. All team members are sweethearts and work together well. Root canals are not fun and I had 2 to do back to back... that was a tuff case. Thank you to all who helped me. I was thankful to a Christian church dentist who recemented Dr. Penn to help me and my ministry. She is a real blessing. Give her a try and see the smiles you will go home with. Lynette Cubic

I went to Diablo View Endodontics for the first time a few weeks back and it was the best decision I could have made. The entire staff was very kind, welcoming, and accommodating. The office itself is very relaxing and clean, and Dr. Penn is AMAZING! She explained everything to me in detail, was very patient, with me and answered all my questions. I’m so glad I found Diablo View Endo. If youre looking for an Endodontist, then I highly recommend Diablo View. My experience here was great and I know yours will be too!

Exceptionally good experience!Raving about a root canal? Yes.Dr. Dobin and staff did an excellent job. I walked in with a lot of pain, recommended by my dentist, and walked out about an hour later with only minor irritation, literally one second of actual pain from the procedure, and I felt so much better immediately. The pressure was gone, just like that. This is a crack team of experts using the latest tools to make the experience quick and comfortable. Very gentle, informative, caring, and observant of my needs and condition. If I need an endodontist again, I will be back.Highly recommended!

I experienced a rather sudden onset of excruciating pain to a tooth aver the course of two days. Luckily I was able to be seen by my dentist rather quickly and he got me in to see Dr. Dobin rather quickly. By the time I arrived at Diablo View Endodontics, it was the worst pain I had ever experienced in my life. Dr. Dobin and his staff got me in and performed an emergency re-root-canal and my suffering was finally over. Very professional, friendly staff and Dr. Dobin was awesome!
