Dr. Vela did not fully understand my child's healthcare condition and how susceptible she would be to cavities. I went and visited him when she was 1 years of age and everything was fine. She was taking multiple medications and had a suppressed immune system. When I returned for her 6 month check-up, she had at least 3-5 cavities and I have now be referred to a specialist whom can handle her case. All I need from him was a warning of how susceptible she was and a better understanding of her medications and how they affected her dental and overall health. When I expressed my frustration he just brushed me aside and asked me to talk with the other dentist and said it seemed like I want to blame someone. He was very insensitive to my situation. There were steps we could have taken to prevent or lessen her risk. She now has to go under anesthesia and possibly receive 4-5 crowns. She is 18 months!
