Dr. McShane and Dr. Magana are currently working Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and Dr. Behkish & Dr. Wood are currently working Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Additionally, Qualicum Beach Dental will be limiting the number of hygiene appointments offered per day. This will keep our staff and you, our valued clients safer, but may slightly increase the wait times for cleanings.

Dr Mcshane is an old bat who has no idea what hes doing. He took my braces off early when there were still gaps because he wanted to retire faster. Then told me because hes retiring I will see him less and that they would call me to set up appointments and I was forgotten about multiple times. I went to a new orthodontist for a second opinion and was told that everything hes doing is wrong and never going to fix my teeth and jaw. I left them a terrible review after that and was asked to take it down because it "made them look bad" and never offered me any solutions or an apology or said anything

Wow... I really dislike making negative reviews but if this can prevent someone else from receiving poor treatment then I am happy to help. I received braces here as a young teen and unfortunately my teeth reverted so I went back to the office to see what could be done. After waiting for about 45 minutes, I finally received a 5 minute consultation just to be told that yeah my teeth don't look the greatest and it will be 10 grand. I felt quite discouraged and went to see another dentist who informed me that my teeth reverting was due in part to the poor construction of my permanent retainer - also

Dr. Andrew Wood provided honest, reasonable, skilled experience, rooted in care. I could not ask for more. He fixed a problem not identified or treated by another dentist. He relieved my stress, based on the possibility of a huge bill, much inconvenience and loads of time. I am grateful and now, have no pain. Thanks so much.

Dr. Wood is an excellent informative dentist. He gave me my options with the possible failure scenarios and told me how to get out of pain without antibiotics! I have never had so much detail and advice during a dental visit. Plus he was very understanding of my fear and painLESS!! I almost can't wait to see him again....I can't believe I found a dentist who cares about me and my wallet.

I have been fortunate to have seen various dentists at this office in my travels. I have had such prompt and efficient appointments. I have received excellent care and detailed treatment plans. They have answered my questions and given the relevant knowledge needed for my care. I have resided in 3 other provinces and prefer the care given from Qualicum Dental.

I came to Qualicum Dental as a walk in patient on vacation from England. I could hardly have expected such outstanding treatment that I received from Rafael Magana. His expertise and attention to detail were of the highest order. His nurse, Christine, was empathetic and the receptionist was efficient and friendly. All in all I was seen and treated all within an hour of my initial phone call at 7.45am. Charged were modest. All round I can hardly believe my good fortune.

I do not like going to dentists at all. I've avoided dentists when ever possible. Well, when my bridge broke, I had no choice and found Qualicum Dental open and surprisingly available to see me. I just moved to the Island recently and so glad I found this place. They are all friendly, accommodating, and empathetic. I will now start the road to proper dental health with a clinic that I am comfortable with.

I go to Rafael Magana and have received excellent service from him and other staff. He is extremely professional organized and detail oriented. One small thing... he will try and converse with you while you are lying there with your mouth open but all dentists do this so it can't really be a criticism😉
