Serving Talmadge, San Diego
Five minutes west on University Ave — the established family practice next door.
Talmadge is a quiet, historic residential neighborhood tucked between Kensington and City Heights. The signature entrance gates on the eastern edge of Talmadge along Euclid Ave are about five minutes from our front door. Talmadge patients are typically established homeowners — many in the same home for 20+ years — who value a long-term relationship with a single dentist over price-shopping every six months. We have served Talmadge families across multiple generations and we keep detailed long-form records so we can spot changes in a tooth over a decade, not just one visit at a time.
Starting point: Adams Ave & Euclid Ave (eastern Talmadge)
From most Talmadge addresses, head south on Euclid Ave or 49th Street to University Ave, then east a few blocks. The whole drive is typically under 5 minutes. Our office is on the south side of University Ave between 52nd and 54th Streets, next to Vien Dong Supermarket — you can also reach us by continuing east on Adams Ave to Fairmount Ave and turning south, though the University Ave route is usually faster.
MTS Route 1 stops along Fairmount Ave near the southern edge of Talmadge and connects to University Ave within a few stops of our office. Route 11 along Adams Ave is the alternative for northern Talmadge.
Our office at 5296 University Ave (Suite I) has free street parking along University Ave and 53rd Street, plus the shared lot for Vien Dong Supermarket next door. Wheelchair-accessible entry and ground-floor treatment rooms.
Every visit is the same comprehensive practice — these are the services that tend to matter most to the patients we see from Talmadge.
