  • Dr Ward and his staff are absolutely phenomenal! I used to hate going to the dentist and before I started going to Oceanside I would do anything to avoid going. When I switched to Oceanside I quickly learned that he and his staff are very good at what they do, so I don’t mind going at all. I had a cavity filled this morning and didn’t feel a thing! If you have dental anxiety like I do, then this is the place for you.
