No question that he is very nice & compassionate and has a gorgeous office w/all the latest equipment + in-house lab, but he is VERY expensive. I had an exam + x-rays + deep cleaning, and that exhausted my insurance ($1500) for the year, plus I had to pay approx. $600 out of pocket. Personally, I'm tired of funding doctors' wish lists, especially when I see them driving cars that cost more than the house I lost to foreclosure. Lost my job in 2004 due to disability, then major financial loss due to mountain of doctor & hospital bills. I now rely on monthly disability benefits, so I am in no position to afford someone like Dr Velton, no matter how wonderful he may be. Made my appointment based on a friend's high praise, but had I known how expensive he was, I never would have gone. My situation requires massive reconstruction: Sjogren's disease, a severe Vitamin D deficiency, and extreme grinding/clenching have left me with a mouth full of broken, jagged black stumps, and fillings held in place by a tiny piece of tooth. Was hoping for implants (dentures as a last resort), but Dr V said roots & bone are all good, so my only option is RC + crown for all teeth, at a cost of approx. $50,000. Needless to say, I'm still looking for help.

Dr. Velton, many years ago, saved my son's teeth when they were almost all ruined. My son was phobic about dentists, we had been thrown out of dental offices because my son got so freaked out. Dr. Velton was magical. My son didn't mind going to him at all. There is NO other dental office in town that I would go to. They have a BEAUTIFUL state of the art office, and his entire staff is top of the line. I got dental implants this year, and everyone was great about telling me my options, assiting with credit, follow up, and always make me feel important. My husband goes there now and feels the same way. Dr. Rashke is wonderful as well. (He looks 18, but is great!)

I have been going to Dr. Velton's office since I was 14 years old and I love the service that I receive everytime I go. Although Dr. Velton is a lot more expensive than many other dentists I feel that everytime I go, I receive the best care ever. He is friendly and personable. He also has the best staff ever. All are very knowledgable. I would definately recommend Dr. Velton's office to anyone.

What dentist charges $160 for a 5 minute consultation, when said consultation is related to a condition the dental office performed little more than year before (and was paid VERY well for)? I believe professionals who do good work deserve fair compensation, but come on. That's $1920/hour-- for a consultation. Yet that is what I paid to have my wife's TMJ re-evaluated by Dr. Velton. What's more, an elderly patient obviously distraught, drew the Dr. away-twice- during his exam of Francisca, leaving her sitting there with her own concerns about her condition and wondering when he would return (15 minutes) and if he was even interested. Apparently he was unwilling to trust his staff to deal with the situation. Walking out like that to deal with a customer service issue when you have staff on hand to deal with such matters shows a lack of leadership and is not the way to build confidence or gain the respect of your patients or your employees. His five minute evaluation gave a proper diagnosis. I respect his skill and the fact that he is a Christian, but I feel his chairside manner and pricing could stand a re-evaluation.

I have been a patient of Dr. Paul for 8 years or so and I've been extremely happy with his work as well as the staffs.

Good, professional work and great facility. But I was quoted one price on the telephone, and charged another. I was also billed for additional $ afterwards, which I refuse to pay. I am very put off by this. If you go here, make sure you come to agreement on the price of services beforehand and it wouldn't hurt to have it in writing.

From the moment you walk into the gorgeous spa-like facility with an at home decor, to the moment you walk out the front door, you are pampered, checked on, worked on, with a comfortable, gentle, relaxing experience like not other dentist can provide. The staff is so accomodating I feel like I'm the only patient! I just think this is the best dentist around. You can see and feel the warmth he and his staff have toward each other and their patients. I would travel many miles to receive the kind of care I know I could not find elsewhere. The work is absolute perfection! The best of the best in San Diego!!! It is an absolute pleasure to go to the dentist; now you don't hear that very often!!! Thank you Dr. Velton and staff for the personal care and attention you give to my family and friends! God's Blessings to all of you! Andrea Russo

This Doctor did a root canal and then place a cap over the tooth that has come off four times. The cost above my Delta Dental coverage was $400.00 dollars and there is no ability to pay over a two month period, it has to be upfront. Now I have to take her back again and I hope they don't try and charge me again. It appears to be a wonderful office, all new but with the cost and returns I don't recommend him to my friends.

I speak of the utmost respect for Dr. Velton. He has a new facility, like a five star resort with excellent patient care. He has excellent service and is a gentle dentist. He also, is my brother.
