Joseph J. Bull, D.D.S.

Never in all my years have I had such a BAD experience with staff. The first woman who answered the phone cold transferred me, than the second was irate, rude, yelled at me, cut me off at every sentence when asked a question on policy for canceled appointments. Not even an no show. And when I asked for management, she refused and threatened to disconnect the call. Then the manager refused to address the rude behavior and instead claimed a miscommunication. I’d caution anyone else before they have an equally or worse experience with a staff not held responsible for mistreatments of patients.

Seek a second opinion before costly, time consuming and painful procedures from here. They wanted to cap most of my teeth, because grinding wear and tear. I am skeptical, because the dentist was brief, nonchalant and offered no proof of ground flat teeth. No sharing of the x-rays or showing me my flat spotted teeth in a mirror was given. Later, my own examination shows no real concern. Plus and most importantly, other dentists that I’ve frequented haven’t mentioned the need for this extreme treatment. Also the routine cleaning was a bit rough, felt manhandled a bit and rushed. Overall, everything was too rushed and crowded; another patient another dollar. Before committing to their recommendations, seek second opinions, preferably from nonprofit dental offices that aren’t as money motivated or other trusted professionals. This office is bullish and possibly full of bull. If my eventual second opinion confers with their recommendation, I’ll update.

I am with Stacy and she's a great dentist. If you get dentures, they will send you to Steven in Pima. I don't normally write reviews, but for a couple of years now, I am so mad when I put my dentures in and I have to write a review. Steve and his daughter are great people and Steve makes good quality dentures. But if you want the denture YOU like, you have to demand it to Steve EVERY time you talk to him. Otherwise you end up like me and you get the dentures Steve wants you to have. I wanted "Hollywood White" dentures, shiny white and clearly visible when i smile. Not everyone's choice, but that is what i wanted. Steve didn't like my choice and i got pretty dull white dentures and when I smile they hardly show. Makes me mad every day i put them in. I didn't insist enough, so i got what Steve likes, not what i wanted. I can't afford to get another set made, so i have to wear these boring dentures. So, if you want the teeth you like, have them redo them until you like them. Don't make the same mistake i made and say nothing ,because they are nice great people. You will be mad every day you didn't insist.

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER DENTIST WAS GETTING FRUSTRATED WHILE DOING MY TEETH , CUT ME UVULA , BEING ROUGH , ALMOST MADE ME THROW UP ASKED TO STOP AND KEPT GOING .

If I could give ZERO stars I would! Absolutely terrible experience for my child. Do not take your children to this man. They are incredibly rude there.They gave my child the anesthesia in the lobby & then took them back without me. They said the room was only big enough for my child, the hygenist & Dr. Bull....which my child said was untrue. They restrained my child and yelled at them for crying, they didn't allow them to catch their breath and never clearly explained the procedure to any of us. Did an extra crown which we never talked about. Their "Conscious Sedation" is literally torture! My child was awake, conscious, terrified and crying. They closed the connecting doors so I couldn't hear what was happening. They brought my child back sobbing and first thing he said was "they were mean to me Mom and they yelled at me" and Dr Bull said "he was just dramatic". He also said not to "ask him any questions about what happened". Which was super fishy....but I didnt have to ask questions, He told me as soon as we got to the car "they covered my mouth and wouldn't let me breath when I was crying. The dental assistant held him down and she told him "you can go back to your mom when you stop crying". That is threatining and intimidation on a child. They are unprofessional, unempathetic and definitely not family friendly. This place was a disgusting display of carelessness and Ego.

Last visit went well. The staff were friendly. The dentist was great. She tries to make you as comfortable as possible. And makes a procedure that should be difficult into something simple. The bull family practice has been good to me. Thank you

Very friendly people. I had never had an extraction done without general anesthesia before. I was in excruciating pain and horrified of the procedure but Dr Bull Sr was very kind and reassuring to me and the other patients coming through. I was out the door in a half an hour. Now I'm feeling much better and will be more comfortable getting dental care in the future because of my positive experience at this office.

I have been a loyal customer since kid started growing teeth. Williams has been doing me and my kid . Every 6 months cleanings are good and professional. In 2007 I had the gap in front teeth filled by dentist now retired and they are still doing great. Now the fillings done by Williams keep falling out . I inquired as to why this is happening after she said she couldn't drill them anymore and she said it was because I grind my teeth. I do and for the past 5 years I have used a bite guard . So my next stop was for a second opinion. Records were sent and I was treated effectively. Then my daughter for about the last year or so has been having trouble with pain. She is now on her own and trying to adult and is getting the run around from Bulls office. My second opinion dentist agreed with Williams diagnosis that now the root is suffocated. I thought we went to dentists to prevent these things. A few days ago daughter got a letter saying they are not going to see her because I criticized Williams work. Because of fillings falling out( warranty covered)she now needs a root canal. Apparently every new fill needs a deeper drill. I don't know what it is... technique or product failure but they will never call you back so you can't figure it out. I only spoke to new dentist about my issues. Now I am saying their fillings are faulty.
