beware dr. erich wolley, dds in tijuana, mex.

greetings all,

this is a blog to relay my experiences with dr. erich wolley, dds. he lives in san diego/chula vista and works in tijuana, mexico as a holistic dentist. i went to him after seeing him on the hulda clark website as a recommended holistic dentist. erich says he is recommended by david wolfe the raw food/superfood guy, though i couldnt confirm that with mr. wolfe or his staff at sun foods.
i spent a fair amount of money at dr. wolley's office and was very disappointed with his work.
the following is a review of my experience with dr. wolley, (or erich as he prefers to be called).

erich is a bright guy, a fast talker and a good salesman. in his work on me, he was not through, even though he assured me over the phone that he was, before i flew into san diego. i had quite a bit of work done while in tijuana at erich's office. he did work on my lower and upper dental regions..
at the very last day of my time in tijuana, erich mentioned that i might have 'just very slight discomfort for 6-8 weeks'. i thought that was unusual, as i had never had a dentist say that before. erich said it was because he didnt put extra cement into cavitations and that the tooth would have to create its own dentin from within. i thought that would be ok, anything for a stronger, more natural tooth. erich didnt offer me any pain meds or antibiotics before i left.
if i has known what i was in for i would have definately wanted both.
i was in extreme discomfort for 4 weeks. another 4 weeks were still very painful as my friends could attest. i suffered through it, because i was willing to deal even with extreme pain for weeks, if i could have stronger teeth. around week 3, i felt like i had developed an infection in a formerly healthy molar. (healthy and could chew on it -lower right quadrant- before i went to see erich).
i managed to contact erich after mulitple attempts, and he insisted that none of my teeth were 'candidates for infection'. i thought that since i was experiencing so much pain, that what i thought was an infection was just part of the healing pain process. this was not so. i have recently been to another dentist here is the usa, and he gave me that bad news that the tooth had infection at the base, and was probably dead. i had done the icecube test several times before the visit, and had no sensation. this dentist did digital xrays, and so i had a clear picture of this formerly healthy tooth and some other problems erich missed. i suspect this tooth, might have been opened up to infection when erich was cleaning my teeth with a metal scaling tool, and he knicked my gum right underneath this tooth. mistakes happen of course;but, if i had been the dentist, i would have insisted on antibiotics, especially given the amount of i work i had done.
just to be on the safe side. and, as i would be many hundreds of miles away, this would not be an easy, quick trip back.
erich also placed an inlay on a cracked molar tooth in the same lower right quadrant of my jaw.
i wanted to make sure the cracked tooth was viable and able to recieve the inlay and be a healthy, strong tooth. erich insisted the tooth was fine and the inlay would work. the dentist in the usa, also took a digital xray of the cracked tooth w. the inlay. he found infection underneath this tooth as well. he believes that this tooth will also not live long. so im faced with the process of extracting a once healthy tooth and also the cracked tooth that has an inlay that shouldnt have been placed in the tooth. this is a bit of a serious situation. root canals, according to holistics dentist, have the strong possiblity of chronic infection, setting the stage for other more serious problems. the dilema is that once the tooth has been extracted, there is possiblity of bone loss in the area of the missing teeth. a conundrum indeed. save your teeth!
google hulda clarks materials and books on dental issues and their relationship to more serious diseases. she has a lot of free materials online. i would be careful of the dentists she recommends tho. also, i personally dont care for dr. clarks dietary advice. she does have interesting free info on naturopathy and cleansing.
i would also refer people to :
www.westonaprice.org
http://www.westonaprice.org/bookreviews/index.html
http://www.westonaprice.org/bookreviews/napd.html
http://www.westonaprice.org/basicnutrition/vitamin-k2.html (read about cod liver oil and vit. K2 and its healing properties , esp. on dental caries.)
also check out his book: 'nutrition and physical degeneration'. this gives one perspective on the profound impact of nutrition on dental health and dental healths influence on overall health.
i am also getting interested in the metaboic typing diet. this might another avenue some people might want to explore.
just thought i would offer some positive potential solutions along w. my review which continues below.

the dentist in the usa, also found a large cavity in another molar that was so obvious, he mentioned aloud, 'he wasnt sure how the other dentist (erich wolley) missed it'. erich also replaced a filling that he left w. a hole in it. (a small hole in the filling he replaced that is.)
i am going to need to have this filling replaced at addtional cost here in the usa.
erich also had a bridge made for me. this bridge failed on the 3rd time i tried it. not wearing it full time, mind you, i had merely tried for the 3rd time. the bridge fell down onto my gum area after slipping over the teeth. i also had 4 fillings he put in on the sides of my teeth, fall out the first time i flossed my teeth.

i also had a friend travel down from n. california to have some work done. i thought i had found a good holistic dentist while in the midst of having my work done. this, before the work starting falling apart and bridge failing. erich pulled one of her teeth and she also had a splint made. erich had promised mulitple times to give free replacement to any worn out or lost splint. i double checked w. him on this a couple of times just to be sure. he confirmed that he would replace any lost or worn out splint, no charge. my friend noticed a few weeks after the tooth was removed that a large piece of something was still coming out the cavitation. a navy dentist confirmed that it was indeed a piece of tooth that still needed to be extraced. she has an appt. to have a regular dentist in her area remove the rest of the tooth and relieve her of the infection that has developed. erich has refused to replace the splint that she has lost. he has even refused to supply another splint at cost or low cost.
i attempted to call erich more than 10 times during business hours to let him know of the problems my friend and i were having. i was only able to reach him when i called him at approx. 8.30am his time on a business day. he told me he was busy and would call back or take my call in 30 minutes. he, of course, did not take my take when i tried back 30 minutes later. i was able to later contact him on his cell ph. on sunday feb. 7 2009, at approximately 3.30pm pst. he wanted to talk later, and so set an appt. over the phone for the next day at 10.30 am pst. i was not able to contact him at the set time or even on later attempts. i was forced to contact him by email. i had several email exchanges w. him. he has now stopped returning my emails. i have requested the xrays he took of my teeth via email or regular mail. he has ignored my requests.
i have also requested a refund of part of the money is spent. it looks like i will have more dental cost in the near future.
i would not recommend erich wolley dds for any dental procedure. his work for my friend and me was not through. it was actually even sloppy. he missed many details that should have been part of any dentist's standard procedure. i have a molar that is dead, according to another dentist, that was healthy before i went to erich wolley's office in tijuana. erich made promises that he had no intention of keeping- replacing splints for example. he also did not offer any pain meds or antibiotics that i would have definately taken. who knows, antibiotics might have saved my molar before it became infected. i am now going to have to spend a lot more money to correct dental issues that arose in part due to erich's negligence.
to be fair, erich did offer to work on my teeth again, at no charge, if i flew back to his clinic. however, given the quality of work he performed on me, i have no desire to endanger myself w. his dental care again.
beware. word to the wise. maybe he just had a bad week. i would not trust him again w. any of teeth or any dental issues.

sincerely,
tom

  1. Tom I am a happy patient of Dr. Erich Wolley. I believe you are wrong. Erich Wolley has always answered my calls and has a long history of success. I have referred many friends and family to Dr. Wolley, All have been satisfied and wowed by Dr.Wolley knowledge and quality of work. I am surprised of this blog. I was just trying to look up some things he recommended I should read online and I found this blog. Honestly I believe you may have been misinformed by you second dentist, or you may be posting this just for defamation or simply your just an angry being in life. Maybe your right (i doubt it). Regardless you are not a dentist nor am I therefore many of your accusations are indeed with out solid ground . I have seen first hand all of Dr. Wolley's promises come true and so have many of my friends. As far as holistic dentistry goes i would indeed recommend Dr. Wolley and his staff.I assure you and every one reading this Dr. Wolley is completely trustworthy and risk less.

    5. BEWARE! He got my business for Aprox. $2,800. How does one put a cost on severe damage and long term suffering? I WOULD give EVERY THING I OWN TO NOT SUFFER IN PAIN. I’ve spent over $38,000. Herein the state I live to fix his poor incompetent defective work. He should be in Prison with life without parole. Again I say PLEASE BEWARE!

    Below is the entire string of our email communication. If you see any reason this man should have attacked me and become so derogatory and incoherent, I would love to hear from you. Please email me. This is my active account.

    Erich, that seemed really rude and unnecessary. I never got a response from my last email in which I wanted to make sure I understand your last email and that the total price you wanted to charge me was $400 because after that you listed a price for the tests and a price for the sedation, but I didn't know if you were clarifying what the $400 included or if you were saying there were additional costs.

    I also asked if you could tell me exactly what airline is hosting one-way flights for $49 because I've spent over 10 hours total trying to find airlines or airline deals that were close to that. The closest I found was a two-way trip for $249 and I'm still trying to arrange things in a manner I can afford.

    If you answered this email, please forward me your sent email because I never received it.

    Thank you.

  4. I agree 100% with Tom and Erin. I also went to erich wolley dds in tijuana and had basically the same experience. He did remove silver fillings in 4 teeth and i got 2 crowns. he missed filling entirely a section of a tooth. I had to call him and convince him there was indeed a whole in my tooth. 3 of those fillings a year later had to be redone. just last week, after about 14 months, 1/2 of a crown broke off. I had been told almost immediately after getting the crowns, by another dentist, that both crowns should be redone as they didn't fit right. I saw this second dentist because of pain i was having. it turns out that cement had spilled out of crowns and was causing pain. in conclusion, stay away from erich wolley. there are good dentists in tj, just not erich. he uses inferior material and does inferior work. he may guarantee his work but who would go back to him under the circumstances.

    1. Hi Katie. I agree with you, Tom, and Erin. This is my nightmare too. It’s been 10 years now for me. My teeth where screwed up severely by Erich. He did 2 crowns, and 3 fillings + teeth not needing work... I got pretty much the same $69. Air flight rap as you had, and the lowball hook line and sink price quote, and similar emails with the incorrect spelling like in yours. Also the derragatory comments when I told him the crowns where not right and the dry socket and pain. Also NO PAIN MEDICATION. He said it was all in my head. He refused to make it right, and I no longer trusted him after the 2nd time I went back. The partial he made never fit. Very rediculous- gum ball machine quality. Why is he not in prison? Over 10 years for me and my suffering is ongoing. I would do ANYTHING to take back my decision to have flown to Erich Wolley and put my trust and health in his incompetent hands. $$$$over 30,000 and counting. BE WARNED! BEWARE!

  5. I have been going to Dr. Wooley now for about five years after being referred by two friends who have also been getting their dental work done by him for a much longer period of time. They are happy with his work and so am I. I have found him to have a “no nonsense “ approach to dentistry unlike most of the dentists I have been to in the last 50 years who gouged me for as much money as they could get for work that may not have even been necessary. So far…. Dr. Wooley has been straight forward with me and has acted with the utmost of integrity and I am very happy with the work he has done.

    I came across this blog because I lost his contact information due to a computer crash and needed to contact Dr. Wooley. I was appalled by what I read and couldn’t believe they were writing about the same Dr. Wooley. To go into such elaborate and lengthy detail to slander somebody for whatever selfish reason appears to be more of a malicious act than a mere statement of fact. Little people do little things to create a big impression. It’s unfortunate but that may be the only means they have to be noticed. To whom it may concern….. My vote is for Erich Wooley. Keep up the good work.

    1. "he uses inferior material and does inferior work"
      He is a scammer and a liar. He may be a good salesman but nothing he says is true, and his terrible dentistry speaks for itself. The scary part is it is LIFE THREATENING to use unsanitary procedures and unsterilized equipment. He doesn't have a concept of BASIC SANITATION let alone sterilizing equipment, or having it sent out as he said he did. (He also claimed to distill his own water, WOW, with a Brita?).
      How would you feel if you knew there was NO HOT RUNNING WATER in his entire office? Gloves do not protect the patient, they protect the practitioner. the only thing that protects the patient is hand washing with hot water, soap, and drying with something disposable, not the washcloths the assistent takes home and washed with her families underwear.

    2. Give it some time, my vote is for Erich Wolley to be sued for malpractice but can't have insurance, can't afford it. He is not even close to being a dentist.

    3. He SHOULD be in PRISON WITHOUT PAROLE. There is nothing small minded or feeble and PATHETIC as someone(ERICH WOLLEY) who continues to cause another person harm. I have been suffering for 10 years from his negligence and incompetence. I’ve spent well over $30,000 trying to have his poor workmanship corrected. I don’t believe for a second anyone is trying to bad mouth ERICH WOLLEY for no legitamite reason. People have a right to be angry and upset when they suffer, and are scammed, and have to spend and barrow thousands to correct his work. This blog is to represent people. People should speak up when something is not right or could cause another harm. I’ve suffered and even wished and prayed for a time to die because I was in so much pain you cannot imagine. And HOW DARE this INCOMPETENT, INSENSITIVE dentist tell me it’s all in my head. I CRIED AND PLEADED WITH HIM FOR HELP AND PAIN MEDS. BEWARE! BEWARE!!!

  6. Dr. Wolley is an OUTSTANDING DENTIST! I met him 3 years ago while undergoing treatment for stage 4 head/neck cancer. He found the main contributing cause..two long term infected root canals which he extracted and replaced with a permanent non-metalic, non-toxic bridge/crowns that look/feel like natural teeth! I couldn't be more pleased with ALL the work he has done for me, including multiple fillings and mercury removal under the safest of conditions. I have recommended him to many family members and friends who are equally impressed and pleased. His integrity, care, generosity, knowledge, skill and quality of work is unsurpassed as are his prices. More info about him can be viewed on my website: www.debbiewylie.com

  7. Nosotros también somos pacientes del Dr. Wolley, el siempre ha sido muy profesional con su trabajo, recupero piezas dentales casi perdidas y atiende a mis hijos. La atención que recibimos de el es excelente. Su trabajo es impecable y nosotros estamos muy agradecidos. En todos los trabajos dentales uno que tener mucha higiene y cuidados que no dependen de el dentista, es increíble que pudieran soportar el dolor que narran! nosotros hubiéramos ido al consultorio si teníamos problemas . Siempre ha contestado todas nuestras dudas y seguimos las indicaciones al pie de la letra. Conocemos muchos dentistas de gran prestigio y el es un buen profesional. No creo en estos comentarios

  8. I Have regrets to having ever considered going to Tijuana for Dental work. People consider such a drastic step when in the US it costs more than most can afford. It is sad to have to consider airfare + motel because it still comes up cheaper than any US Dentist will quote- that I could find.
    Dentists in Tijuana KNOW THIS. Erich is no exception.
    I too was on a raw food diet and Erich also sold/told me of his desire to be on the raw path and about his connections with Sergei Botenko, and the Raw Family, & Rhio' s (Raw Food Book)Rhio being his client/friend, and Rhio' s sister, and mother. He also claimed to me to be "in" with David Wolfe, Gabriel Cousens, and other raw food celebrities. I know now this was part of his sales pitch as I could see he in no way cared for this lifestyle or believed in it as he confessed to me while scarfing down day old chicken left out over night.
    My experience is one I wish upon no one. My dental work by Erich was horrible and caused extensive damage. I had to pay $4,000+ to fix 2 Crowns he worked on. Really that is not the beginning of my nightmare though. The pain and agony I endured for the year and a half after is why I am even writing to inform others from making the same mistake for what I once thought and considered a $ good deal . I could post a picture of the empty space in my mouth from the 5 teeth I lost due to his incompetence. I lost a year and a half of my life from the pain and depression that resulted from his work on me. I could not sleep at night from the pain, and at some point the next day I would fall asleep from exhaustion- and this repeated itself day after day and I wanted many times to find away to end my life because of my pain and I believe poor quality materials he used had something to do with my suffering. I also witnessed blood on a tool he was going to use on me, and took everything out of my mouth quickly and demanded he not use them. He became highly frustrated with me. I became more and more skeptical of being able to trust him. More, and more went wrong and continued to go wrong. I wonder and question if he really is or was a licensed Dentist here in the states as he told me he had had a Dental Office in San Diego, but decided to keep his office in TJ because of costs. I would like to see some professional investigator post his history and credentials-better yet a News Reporter to report on him and investigate him. I would like to know how he qualifies as a holistic Dentist, and why he can't give pain Medication?
    Kathleen, Tom, and Erin your stories sound so much like what I was hearing, seeing, and witnessing. I hope no one else falls victim to him anymore. I am sure there are many more complaints as I witnessed a number of phone complaints from Dr. Wolley's clients while I was staying there at his office and home. Ironically he told me how much he hated and despised Doctors due to almost loosing his son Ryan but yet he doesn't see the pain & damage he causes to others in the same as he is detesting. I witnessed him discussing about a man named Fletcher whom had died after seeing him, and him worried about what Fletcher's Wife and family might try to sue him. There where other clients complaining about bad denture work and being sent home with dentures that did not work. I witnessed complaints from clients in the waiting room. He needs to be Investigated. I truly believe this would save a lot of people from unnecessary harm. I am truly embarrassed now for trusting him and now seeing all the caution signs I didn't recognize soon enough to run away from him soon enough.

  9. I wanted to know what Vera' s comment was above because I do not speak Spanish. Here is the translation I got online......

    We are patients of Dr. Wolley, the has always been very professional with their work, I recover nearly lost teeth and attends to my children. The attention that we receive from the is excellent. His work is impeccable and we are very grateful. In all dental work one that have good hygiene and care that do not depend on the dentist, it is incredible that they could withstand pain they narrate! We had gone to the clinic if we had problems. He has always answered all our questions and follow indications to the letter. We know many dentists of great prestige and is a good professional. I do not believe in these comments

    WOW Vera--- Seriously are you serious? Do you possibly have the name Erich Wolley as well? You don't believe these people's comments? You then have to write us in Spanish and say we are all making up this pain and suffering, and thousands of extra dollars to fix the bad work we have received, and the broken promises from Erich. Are you educated in Dentistry? I hope you do not plan to become a dentist. Certainly Hygiene is important in the care of one's oral health--- So is a persons diet-- Also so is the work in which a dentists performs. You see Vera Hygiene has little to do with the performance of an incompetent Dentist who does not stand by his work. This can actually create hygiene problems, infections, loss of teeth etc...
    I hope you and Erich sleep well, and can look at yourself in the mirror.

  10. I am not sure where the above comments originate however I can relay my experience to all of you with Dr Wolley. I traveled throughout the United States in an effort to have bridges and crowns replaced. No dentist was comfortable with replacement due to my TMJ, they were not convinced they could balance my bite. He was able to replace with non-toxic material and my bite has been perfect since my first visit to his clinic. I highly recommend Dr Wolley.

  11. Please people-- BEWARE Erich Wooley!!! I would not be surprised if his licence is not valid. No hot running water in the entire office!! The sink in the 2nd room is not even hooked up to any plumbing, just a dummy sink. I had extensive Hg removal and "mouth reconstruction", as he called it, which consisted of filing down my perfectly healthy back molars while claiming he was building them up with an inlay. His work was so inept and sloppy that I will be paying for it with dental work the rest of my life, and soon may need 3 entire crowns just because he drilled out so much heathy tooth and simply slapped the composite in like speckle. I have been in continuos pain since I left his filthy office 5 days ago. I had to go 3 days in terrible pain over the holiday weekend b/c he gave me a large inlay/crown that he knew didn't fit, and I couldn't close my mouth without biting my cheek, which is still in tatters. I will write more soon, wish I had found this earlier!!! NO sterilized equipment,
    totally unsanitary! Praying I didn't get a blood disease, DONT GO to ERICH WOOLEY!!

    1. Diane,
      If you happen to revisit here I really do PRAY you are no longer in pain and suffering.
      I am here angry I’m still suffering 10 years later, and I would gladly give EVERYTHING I own to not suffer this long. SERIOUSLY I wish I NEVER had work done by him. I PRAY others are not harmed... I too pray he is more sanitary these days. I witnessed the same as described. Scary.

    1. BEWARE! My experience is not nearly as happy and trusting as yours.
      My Partial Erich Made never fit and he wouldn’t correct it. My Crowns he did where like horse teeth, and everything he did for me showed his incompetence. And since I’ve suffered from his incompetence I feel it my duty to caution others and advise them to at least get another drs opinion and have X-rays before you go to Him so he don’t work on the wrong teeth....WARNED!

  13. I too had problems after Erich Wolley worked on me. I went to him to have an amalgam removed and replaced with a white filling in December 2014. About a month later the tooth was still surprisingly very sensitive to cold which Erich said should have gone away by then and now it also started to become painful, it would throb with pain whether I ate something or not. And when I did eat I had to eat on the other side of my mouth and had to start taking ibuprofen as the pain started keeping me up at night. I saw my dentist here in the US and she said when the nerve throbs with pain it usually means the root is dying. When Wolley removed the amalgam he ground out more of the tooth and apparently ground into the nerve area. When he pressed the white filling in the cavity I felt it press against the nerve. My dentist, after examining the filling Wolley put in, told me that there was a ledge created by the new white filling near the gum (the filling wasn’t flush with the tooth like it should be but stuck out) which would accumulate plague and there would be no way to clean the plague out. So now I had two choices: a root canal or remove the tooth. The tooth is now gone. This should not have happened. I shouldn't have had to lose that tooth. It was fine before with the amalgam in it, just needed to swap out the amalgam for a white filling. Don’t take the risk; go to a dentist who has integrity, knows what they are doing and has a good reputation. Beware of Erich Wolley.

    2. Chris, my dentist told me he created the ledges on mine. He severed the nerves on all mine which has led to all infections because of leaving the roots. That what I say,hollistic is just a bait y o get you in the door. I can send you xrays after I left his office with metal. Contact the attorney general office. Let's get him stopped. Why does he smoke,drink and his personal hygiene so bad if he is so good.

  15. I too had recent problems. I don't even think I should call it problems. I had destruction if four teeth and severe damage. It has been hell and back and was a sigh of relief when he told me everything was wonderful and four crowns were fine even though not one was seated correctly and had my bite off drastically enough that I left there returned to the states went to a Dentist here and will cost $8000.00 for the correction of the damage he has done. The sigh of relief was I never had to go back.

  17. Erich Wolley is nothing but a liar, scam artist and is A malicious human being .Erich has his own definition of hollistic. Hollistic dentist do not believe in root canals. Erich severs the nerves of the teeth and leaves all roots exposed to infection and kills the tooth. How would you know because you can't feel anything since he severed the nerve. Fortunately I had xrays taken one week prior to seeing him. He also is good at destroying teeth that have no filling or cavity just to make a dollar. Just plan on having your life tied up for months due to his incompetence and trying to make more money. When you go to the dentist you have a temporary crown made in office. Erich leaves you without anything because he can't order one To fit. His office is so far behind state of art and very unsanitary. I wonder how many of you were referred. I think this type of hollistic practice he is involved with prey on the sick and elderly. Myself I am a cancer patient which he states he works with and my doctors and dentist were appalled at the work he does and understands why he practices in Tijuana because he would be in jail here. Please contact the San Diego Attorney Generals office at 619 236 6220 to report him and anyone involved with his unethical practices. He is destroying our health and doing irreversible unnecessary damage to our teeth. Let's put a stop to him. How many others have there been
    I have xrays, documentation to prove the truth.Anyone interested to see my xrays after he finished I will be happy to send. He states metal free. Really?

  18. Sue, I am so sorry you suffered at the hands of Erich Wolley. Me too#. I took my X-rays out of his office. It’s been 10 years for me now and I am still suffering from the damage he caused. Yes he needs to be stopped and put in Prison.
