Dr. Ahmed A. Soboh, DDS

Welcome to the dental practice of Dr. Ahmed A. Soboh, DDS, a Dental Clinic located at 101 W Mission Blvd #221 in Pomona, California. Reviews from patients who have visited this office present very concerning accounts of their experiences.

One patient visited Dr. Soboh's office seeking treatment for severe TMJ pain, noting that the office apparently specialized in this condition. Despite initial skepticism due to their husband's temporary crown from this office falling off multiple times, they proceeded with an appointment. After arriving on time and completing paperwork, they waited over 35 minutes for a consultation. Expressing concern about time due to a school pickup, they were eventually seen by Dr. Soboh, who was described as visibly frustrated. The patient reports being repeatedly interrupted with sarcastic remarks about being in a rush, despite explaining the urgency was due to pain, not impatience. The subsequent examination was described as brisk (around 30 seconds) without any diagnostic x-rays, during which Dr. Soboh allegedly declared a jaw misalignment and the need for a root canal.

When the patient attempted to ask for more information about the proposed treatment, Dr. Soboh reportedly dismissed their questions until a treatment decision was made and directed them to another room to discuss finances. Upon trying again to explain the reason for inquiring about the wait time, the patient was allegedly chastised for being rude and told that a minimum two-hour wait was to be expected at every visit, with the patient being blamed for not planning accordingly. As the interaction escalated and the patient began to cry due to pain and feeling unheard, Dr. Soboh's behavior was described as even more upsetting, allegedly commanding them to stop crying and accusing them of making a scene, before suggesting they needed a psychologist. The patient reports feeling utterly demeaned and abused during this encounter.

Following this distressing interaction, the patient was presented with a $3000 treatment plan for an unexplained device by an assistant who seemed surprised that Dr. Soboh had not discussed it. The patient declined further treatment and left. This reviewer described the experience as profoundly disturbing and the worst they had ever had with a medical professional, expressing disappointment at the stark contrast between Dr. Soboh's public persona and their personal experience.

Another reviewer shared an account of Dr. Soboh allegedly turning away their daughter, who had traveled a distance for a root canal and had PPO insurance, due to a miscommunication from the office regarding insurance. Dr. Soboh reportedly informed them that his office did not have time to resolve the insurance issue and "proudly turned her away" during a painful and vulnerable time. This reviewer deemed the behavior unethical and rude, labeling the office as highly unprofessional.

Based on these two detailed and negative accounts, local users in Pomona or the surrounding areas of California should be aware of significant concerns regarding patient communication, wait times, the manner of consultation and explanation of treatments, and overall patient care at the office of Dr. Ahmed A. Soboh, DDS. The reported experiences include allegations of dismissive and rude behavior, lack of thorough examination, and issues with office policies and professionalism. The provided information does not offer details about the clinic's environment or a comprehensive list of all services offered.
