Herrod R Scott, DDS

Great staff and dentist! My crown on the top, on back, randomly came off as I was chewing on a subway sandwich for breakfast. I haven’t seen a dentist since I’ve lived in San Diego (about 9 months now), so I searched for one quick and the one nearest to me that had the highest reviews was Dr. Herrod. They took me in 3 hours after the crown had just fallen off! Got me in and out there quick and Dr. Herrod and miss Suzy kept me entertained. Prices are super reasonable also. Thank you so much!

I’ve been going to Dr Herrod since I was 14. I’m 40. (With the exception of one 6 month stint elsewhere for insurance reasons – which REALLY made me realize the stark difference.) In other words, I’ve done whatever I can to make sure he’s my dentist. He is a man of skill, kindness, and integrity. He works to help me better understand how to best take care of my dental hygiene and is not in it for the upsell. He lays out all options and helps me make educated decisions. Over the years he’s worked to expand his scope of practice, staying current with new practices and developing additional treatment options.
The other dentist I went to for that 1 insurance blunder had a fancy office with fancy equipment… and I paid dearly for it with my money. I felt like a number in the sea of patients and wasted more than 30 minutes after my appointment time to be seen.
Dr Herrod’s office runs on time. They respect clients in every way – including keeping you on schedule. No, they don’t have the latest gadgets, but they do have the latest skills and stellar customer service. The staff are warm, friendly, and efficient – all rolled into one. It’s funny, people always complain about going to the dentist, going to visit Dr Herrod is like visiting family and leaving with a gleaming smile. Hat’s off to Dr Herrod and the Herrod Team!

Very good dentist office, Fast, honest, great service and pricing. I have been to a few dentist in the area and This is the best one I have found.

I have been seeing Dr. Herrod for approximately 20 years. I wouldn’t go anywhere else even though I’m driving from Encinitas. Not Denmark… but still! I agree with every 5-​star review posted. If I lived closer I would be stopping in just to say hello, they are so much fun to talk to!
Oh yes, the actual dentistry. I’ve had a lot of work done over the years and not once has there been any problems with the work in any way. Dr. Herrod and Susie are perfectionists in what they do. I also trust Dr. Herrod completely when he suggests that preventative care be done on a tooth. He never suggests anything that doesn’t prove to be a necessity. They are the nicest, most professional people you could find!

I actually look forward to my dentist appoints! Dr. Herrod and his staff are not just friendly and on time, but they are really fun. Dr. Herrod is the only dentist that apologizes a million times before shooting you up Novocain. His sincerity and comedic blend eases your mind.
His office is a bit retro, you can tell your dollars don’t go to the newest equipment, but I like his simplistic non-​flashy approach. I’m sure this is also why his fees are so reasonable. His staff are truly warm as well. Of course, Dr. Herrods is very skilled and conscientious in his work too. I would recommend him especially to the skittish! :)
He’s great!

Can’t say enough about the hospitality, professionalism and patience Dr. Herrod and his staff exhibited in accommodating my needs and availability.

Dr. Herrod is a great dentist and his office takes great care of us.
We currently live in Denmark and my wife and I both wait to do our dental work at Dr. Herrod’s office. His receptionist team is kind and efficient, his staff are all highly trained, and he does quality work while also being a really nice guy. He will be honest in his assessments but always communicates in a kind and supportive manner. Definitely one of the better dental services I have ever experienced.

Dr. Herrod is FANTASTIC.
I’ve been to more than my share of dentists and this guy is skilled, honest and even accepts my insurance! All of his staff are great, and when I’ve had emergencies they have worked around my schedule to get me in and out in a timely manner.

Doctor Herrod’s office is excellent! If you’ve ever been afraid of the dentist you won’t be anymore! He’s always kind and funny and you can really tell he treats his employees well, which is something we should support as a community! His staff is always friendly and accommodating.

I have been going to see Dr. Herrod for three years. Even after I moved to Chula Vista, I continued to make the 20 minute semi annual commute up to la mesa for cleanings. Dr. Herrod is great. I am a terrible flosser. I always have been. But under Dr. Herrod’s kind encouragement, I have improved a lot! I always feel great after visiting Dr. Herrod!

Dr. Herrod has been our family dentist for many years and I would never think about going to anyone else for our dental needs. I literally faint at the sight of a needle and somehow Dr. Herrod has the ability to give me a shot without pain and without passing out. I know it sounds trivial, but it’s a big deal for me and my kids. Dr. Herrod and his staff are the best!

Been going to Dr. Herrod since as long as I can remember. I don’t believe you will find anybody as honest, friendly, and reasonable. In fact, my entire family goes to him and has been going to him forever.

Dr. Herrod is amazing. My family started going here several years ago after a referral from another family member. I think about twenty family/​friends go to him for dental work and I haven’t heard anything but good reviews from them. Dr. Herrod and his team make sure you understand everything that is going on and they have a nice family atmosphere there. Most of the time you can get an appointment pretty fast and they will always call you with a reminder. Another thing, Dr. Herrod has kids so he knows all the tricks (like his donald duck voice) to help kids to feel at ease and they don’t mind going to the dentist!
