Emerald Bay Dentistry

Dr Tamara Fernandes has taken over the practice since Dr Jones left town.
I had a crown fall off after about 9 months which was put on by the previous dentist. Dr Fernandes backed up the previous dentist’s work and did not charge me for her rigorous 2 hours of labor. Dr Fernandes tirelessly built up my tooth which had undergone a root canal and perfected the procedure so this crown would be secure. I have every confidence in her ability and she definitely takes pride in her work. I would recommend her in a heartbeat and I believe that we could not have a better or more qualified dentist at Emerald Bay Dentistry. She will be an asset to the community and to all of Dr Jones’ former patients.

Great dentist. Had my teeth cleaned this morning. Friendly staff, professional cleaning. $ 150 for cleaning. Only comment would be about dental rooms across from each other, I don’t want see other people getting their dental work.

Dr. Jones is a great, honest dentist with a caring staff, clean office areas, and in a convenient location. Her prices are reasonable and in the two years my wife and I have been visiting her for our dental care there’s never been any problem with insurance or billing.

Wow! This office is staffed with angels!
I came here, based on other Unilocal reviews, and am so thankful I did.
While visiting SLT from out of town, my tooth began to ache and I couldn’t wait until we returned home. I called first thing in the morning and got an appointment for 2 hrs later!
After I filled out the paper work, had an xray, I was waiting in the back room when there was a snafu with my dental carrier. The staff was very flexible with my situation and Dr Kathy promptly helped me get well to enjoy the rest of my stay.
Dr Kathy, and her staff, are very professional, courteous and accommodating.
Look no further for an honest, caring dentist.

I do not have many nice things to say about this place. First, there was a dog roaming the office for my cleaning. I do love dogs, but I do not think a doctor’s office is an appropriate place to have them. The biggest problem that I had with this place is that I asked how much the service would cost prior to my appointment. When I received the bill at check-​out, it came out to be a little more than the quote. But to top it off, after I paid the higher amount, I still received a bill saying that I owed more. As for the actual service performed, I would say that it was adequate.

This place is great. I had broke a filling on vacation and was calling around to a bunch of answering machines. Dr. Jones’s staff understood my pain and was able to verify my insurance and get me in immediately. Dr Jones, herself was very upbeat and would explain everything she was doing. She even made sure I was really, really numb before she started drilling. If I lived in the area, I would definitely make her my dentist.

AMAZING PLACE… I live in Houston and I’m here in lake tahoe on vacation, and the crown on my tooth just fell off Friday afternoon. Unfortunately for me, it happened late on Friday and all dental offices are closed on weekends. Im so glad i called Emerald Bay Dentistry as soon as it happened, good thing they were still in the office when I called… Dr Kathy said she would come in on her day off, and open the dentistry on Saturday, just to help out my dire situation. She didn’t even know me. I’m not in her system and not her patient. I just randomly picked this place to call first because of the great reviews it had. She was soooo nice and overly friendly. To top it off, she fixed my problem perfectly and saved my vacation from being a complete nightmare. I couldn’t have picked a better place to come to. I recommend her to everybody that lives in this area (or for anyone who is here on vacation and had an unfortunate accident like myself)…by far the nicest dentist i ever had

Love the team at Emerald Bay Dentistry. This is the place to go, love, love, love going to the dentist … did I just say that? yes!

We were traveling in the South Lake Tahoe area when my wife experienced an extreme pain from one tooth. We looked for a dentist and chose Emerald Bay Dentistry, based on Unilocal reviews. Dr. Kathryn Jones service exceeded our expectations by far. Her professional and kind service is at the most high level as all the other stuff. I highly recommend this office.

First off, I hate going to the dentist office. That being said, the entire staff at emerald bay dentistry made me feel very relaxed. I would highly recommend this office for anyone seeking friendly, professional, high quality service. This is one of the best offices I’ve been to my entire life.

Emerald Bay Dentistry is the most caring and professional dental practice we have ever been too. Dr. Jones and her staff ROCK! We highly recommend this office to anyone who seeks compassionate and professional care.

Kathryn Jones DDS is a good as it gets– She is incredibly professional, caring, gentle and trustworthy– Besides her high level of skill and knowledge– I could not be more satisfied with her treatment. She is not only a wonderful dentist, she’s a really nice person– I could not give anyone a higher vote of confidence– She really cares– I don’t think it’s possible there’s a better dentist anywhere. If you need a good family dentist, this is the one. On top of everything else, she actually tries to prevent treatment that’s unecessary which is rare in this field– She prefers to do as little as possible and keep the treatment to a minimum, which I really like. When she must do her thing, she’s incredibly skilled and gentle.

The staff at Emerald Bay Dentistry and Dr. Jones herself are wonderful. We have been patients for 7 years and never had a problem. We have had several procedures done and they have been great each time. If you are looking for a dentist that cares and has a staff that goes above and beyond look no further!
