One of the finest dentist’s in Southern California. Very honest and professional with an excellent staff who are very friendly and helpful.
I have been to many dentist’s in the last 30 years and Dr Prouse is by far the best. Especially his receptionist Bea who was extremely helpful to me and my wife.

Hands down the best dentist around! I’ve seen Dr. Prouse for almost 30 years, and wouldn’t go anywhere else. He is conservative with treatment and listens to your concerns. He and his staff are the epitome of a caring dentist office, and have truly become our extended family! I would recommend Dr. Prouse to anyone!

I have a severe anxiety disorder, and due to a bad experience with dentists as a kid and an extremely sensitive gag reflex, I hadn't been to a dentist in 10+ years. I wish I'd known about Dr Prouse's practice before. He and his wonderful staff have made going to the dentist a walk in the park!
