Reviewed on November 8th, 2023 • Verified patientDr. Yang Gao did pretty solid examination. She walked me through the details of my teeth. We took the X-ray and the regular cleaning. I got my teeth, gums, and the overall condition of oral health checked. They also discuss any issues found during the examination and suggested treatment options. She is very professional.Was this review helpful?{{ reviews[153330].errors[0] }}

Reviewed on February 1st, 2023 • Verified patientThis place has really earned its name. It IS fun to be able to seamlessly book an appointment and not have to wait months to be seen and to not have to wait long at all in a waiting room. I had to reschedule my initial appointment and it was very easy and they were very polite about it. The entire staff here is friendly, efficient, and kind. They made sure that I was comfortable and continuously checked in to make sure I was not in pain. Everything was explained to me and I feel like I received a deeper cleaning than I have at previous dentists. The office itself is also very clean. Some dental offices will try to talk you into unnecessary procedures and this is not one of them. I could see this being a great place for kids or anyone who gets nervous about going to the dentist. Already booked my second appointment and I look forward to coming back.Was this review helpful?{{ reviews[138651].errors[0] }}

Reviewed on August 12th, 2022 • Verified patientThis is the most clean dentist place I've been so far, even the computer keyboard and mouse are covered by plastic sheet to prevent contaminant. Dr Gao is really patient and skillful. She even told me don't have to open my mouth too big during the procedure, which is a real relief for TMJ patient like me. And she doesn't push for a wisdom teeth removal, which is one of the most lucrative procedure in dentistry.Was this review helpful?{{ reviews[131737].errors[0] }}

Reviewed on March 2nd, 2020 • Verified patientThe visit was worth it. The hospital doesn't take appointments on Monday, but the Opencare platform allowed me to book one.

Reviewed on January 14th, 2020 • Verified patientWhen I arrived, i was greeted with a smile and paperwork since this was my first time at this practice. As soon as I finished my paperwork, I was called in. They dental assistant greeted me as well and started to ask me questions to get to know me. She then found out that I was pregnant, so they were not able to take x-ray pictures of my teeth. The dentist came in soon after and informed me what was going to happen and she also let me know ahead of time what was happening and what I was going to feel. Overall, the staff made me feel very comfortable and safe. This feeling is important for those who are nervous about going to the dentist and trying to build and establish a relationship with their dentist.Was this review helpful?{{ reviews[95752].errors[0] }}
