I've been coming to A+ Dental in San Pedro with Dr. Philip Park for years, and my family has been coming here using my dad's Longshoremen insurance. Because we've been patients here for years, this recent experience with the front desk was extremely disappointing. My original appointment was scheduled for Wednesday, August 12 at 10:00 AM. On Thursday, August 6, the office called me and asked if I wanted to move my appointment to Friday, August 7 at 10:00 AM. I agreed, but later that evening my kids reminded me that they had something going on at school that Friday morning. I called the office as soon as they opened to let them know I couldn't make the newly moved appointment and asked to keep my original appointment date. I was then told I would have to pay a $50 same-day cancellation fee. I was confused because my original appointment was not that Friday--the office had contacted me and asked me to move it up to Friday. I understood that I had agreed to the change, but I didn't feel it was fair to be charged a same-day cancellation fee when the appointment had originally been scheduled for the following Wednesday. Despite this, I called again on August 19 to schedule my cleaning. I was given an appointment for Monday, August 31 at 12:00 PM. I was again told about the $50 fee and was told I could speak with Dr. Park about it when I came in. I agreed. I drove approximately 45 minutes from Anaheim to San Pedro for this appointment, only to arrive and be told there was no appointment for me on the schedule. After checking my information, the front desk staff member told me that I had never actually been scheduled because I didn't want to pay the $50 cancellation fee. This was extremely frustrating because my understanding from our conversation was that I WAS being scheduled for that date and time and could discuss the fee with Dr. Park when I came in. What makes this even more disappointing is that I made a 90-minute round trip, spent money on gas, and rearranged my day based on what I was told by the office. If I was not actually going to be scheduled, that should have been clearly communicated to me when I called. I understand that dental offices have cancellation policies, but there also needs to be clear communication and good customer service. Patients should not have to drive nearly an hour each way only to arrive and find out they were never actually scheduled. After being a patient here for years and coming here through my dad's Longshoremen insurance, I expected much better communication and customer service. I hope management addresses this because this experience was extremely frustrating and could have easily been avoided with proper communication. read more

Dr. Park saved me from a root canal! I went to him for a second opinion after my first dentist said I needed one. Dr. Park was very honest and forthright about my tooth, saying he could try saving it but if there was pain after the filling, I may need one. Wanting to avoid a root canal at all cost, I told him, let's do it! He was very gentle, skilled, and made sure I was comfortable. The tooth came out beautiful! It has been over a month since the filling and absolutely no pain or issues. I'm a little embarrassed about how gross my tooth looked before but had to share pictures on how gorgeous the filling came out. Thank you so much Dr. Park. I promise I'll floss more often read more

A+ Dental - After - General Dentistry Near Me - San Pedro, California

See all

I visited this office on 8/25/25. They were a referral from a friend so I had a lot of confidence in them. Boy was I wrong. This office is why people believe that dentist are scammers. First they told me it would be $234 to clean my teeth but I get 2 feee cleanings a year with insurance. Apparently this is the price for a deep cleaning which I NEVER asked for. Then Dr. Park said that the bridge I had need to be replaced so he was referring me to a colleague. To make a long story short. I walked out with an estimate charge of $5,500 in dental work. They tried to get me to obtain care credit. I was so upset and overwhelmed that I left wanting to cry. Two weeks later, I found another amazing dentist who said I didn't need a deep cleaning or a new bridge. The bridge just needed adjusting and my teeth only needed the standard cleaning. The new dentist was able to do my 2nd bridge using my insurance only. Please shop around and don't choose any old dentist who will use up all your insurance benefits in unnecessary procedures then turn around and charge you for what you really need but now you have to pay out of pocket read more

Staff is super friendly and I always enjoy chatting with the hygienist and doctor. They do a great job cleaning my teeth and are kind with their recommendations to floss more giving me the why and not just scolding. Highly recommended. read more

I moved to San Pedro 2 yrs ago and tried a couple dentist before coming here. Dr. Park is so friendly, explains everything in detail. His office staff is great, it's always easy to get an appointment very quickly. I had a couple fillings done, I felt it was time to get my wisdom teeth out, got a deep clean, now just going for regular cleaning and X-rays. I am considering going in for a Invisalign consult next. read more

I've been going here since 2020 during the pandemic when I moved to San Pedro, CA. All of the staff are great, professional, knowledgeable, & extremely punctual. Dr. Park & his hygienist always performs superbly well and their work is phenomenal. They're top notch in many ways such as choosing high quality filler materials, the client's time & issues is priority, they have great communications, and their service is just streamlined. Their Care factor is accomplishing positive results is truly, 100%, above & beyond. I recently tried going to a different dentist that's closer to my workplace in El Segundo and they turned out to be a scam. That was absolutely a huge mistake because it showed me how much better A+ dental is in many aspects. I'm proud to say and to have A+ dental as my family dentist. read more

Dr.Park is the best dentist in town, by far!!! He is very knowledgeable and caring. He is great with our kids and has given my husband the best care. The staff is always polite and attentive, the office is very clean and organized. You will not get this type of care anywhere else. read more

This is not the place for anyone who has anxiety about dental procedures. In California, dentists must obtain informed consent for all dental procedures, including injections. I specifically asked about the procedure before the work started. Dr. Park not only failed to inform me that he was giving me an injection, he later said " I don't need to tell you" and then told me to go elsewhere. read more

I would like to start my review by highlighting the fact that Dr. Parks is an honest and ethical dentist. In the past, my family and I struggled to find a good and honest dentist but we have found Dr. Parks and we are not going anywhere. Beside excellent services and work, his team/ staff is also super friendly and welcoming. I love Martha! The office is always nice and clean which I love. To everyone reading this review: This is the place you have been looking for! read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Park for several years, and I am consistently impressed with the level of care and professionalism that he and his staff provide. Starting with his front office staff , always being so accommodating with my busy schedule & his assistant, always so welcoming. Not only has he treated me, but he has also taken care of my entire family, including my adult children, and we have all entrusted him with our dental care. I feel that he truly cares about all of us and is always interested in how my adult children are doing. Dr. Park is like our family. We all absolutely love him! Dr. Park's staff is wonderful, and his hygienist is no exception. She is always friendly, welcoming, and efficient, and she goes out of her way to make sure that my appointments are comfortable and stress-free. In addition to her exceptional customer service skills, she is also incredibly skilled at her job. She has a gentle touch and pays close attention to detail, ensuring that my cleanings are completely pain-free. She truly cares about her patients and makes me feel at ease during my appointments. I have had a variety of procedures done with Dr. Park, including teeth cleanings, extractions, and crowns, and I am consistently impressed with the quality of care that I receive. Everything has been done very well, and I always leave feeling confident in the work that has been done. Recently, (last week) I had an implant procedure with Dr. Park, and I am extremely happy with the results. The procedure was completely pain-free, and Dr. Park made me feel relaxed and at ease throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain every single step while he was placing the implant and after it was over, he thoroughly explained his plan of care. In addition to his exceptional skills as a dentist, Dr. Park is also a kind and compassionate individual who truly cares about his patients. He has a gentle touch and a warm bedside manner that puts his patients at ease, and I always leave feeling confident in the care that I have received. Overall, I am extremely grateful and Blessed to have Dr. Park as my dentist. He is truly one of the best in the field, and I have no hesitation in giving him my highest recommendation. I would highly recommend Dr. Park to anyone in need of dental care. read more

For the past two years, I've struggled with some serious medical issues and, unfortunately, my dental health has suffered, as well. After thoroughly researching several dentists in my area, I decided to try Dr. Park at A+ Dental. At my initial consultation, I learned that I would need extensive dental work and although my first visit went very well, I decided to wait until my treatment was completed to write a review... Mission accomplished, and I am happy to report that I am very pleased with my dental treatment! Not only do my teeth look and feel much, much better, I also appreciate several things about A+ Dental: *Everyone is friendly, genuine, and kind (Martha's awesome!). * They were upfront and honest about a recommended treatment plan and costs/coverage. * They were caring, compassionate, and considerate of my needs; I never felt ashamed or embarrassed. * Dr. Park explained (and showed me) what was happening with my teeth and answered every question I had, which was very important to me. Thank you Dr. Park and A+ Dental for giving me my smile back! read more

Been coming here for years, there was a little bump down the line but they fixed it immediately. Highly recommend this place.

I'm so impressed by Dr. park and his staff. Excellent experience in a clean and friendly environment. TV screens right inside the exam rooms and they accept most insurance plans. Context: I had a painful abscess that I'd been given antibiotics for at urgent care and I hadn't been to a dentist for a long time. I was quite frightened at the prospect of going in for any dental work at all, let alone an abscess. On my first visit Dr. Park was able to perform the root canal right then and there on my upper right bicuspid. About Dr. Park: He was fantastic. He didn't shame me for waiting so long to get dental work and instead very comforting about the next steps forward. He explained the possible causes and talked me through every part of what he planned to do. As he performed the root canal, he kept me informed as to what he was the entire time. Very fast and virtually no pain. The staff: Stevie helped me with all my financial questions and put me at ease - she was great. Jessica assisted during the procedure and was watching carefully should I need to signal them to stop for any discomfort. Just awesome! read more

Feel as though I was overcharged and talked into a more expensive treatment than needed. Dentist doesn't listen to the patients concerns and wants. Asked for one procedure and basically told no you are going to do this more expensive drawn out procedure instead. Beware here they will constantly try to upsell you here and just assume the patient is ignorant. read more

Great service and professionalism. Had a Cavity bothering me for days . Made one call had the pain and problem taken care of. Healed up nicely . A place to take your family . read more

Everyone was great with my daughter! Stevi was very helpful & the Dr. was informative. read more

Dr. Park and staff are great! I haven't stayed in a city long enough to establish care with a dentist. I've never truly had issues with my teeth and unfortunately, but fortunately Dr. Park found a cavity. He was very thorough with his explanation of my x-rays and cavity filling procedure. He is very personable and knowledgeable. I am a medical professional myself and really appreciated his professionalism and rapport he makes with patients like myself. I look forward to seeing him again, although I hope no other issues will be found. I suppose it is a good thing I found someone I would not mind seeing for my dental needs every 6 months for prevention of any further issues. Thank you Dr. Park! read more

Had a wonderful visit at A+ Dental, the front desk Martha was so sweet, she got me in the same day to see Dr. Park due to the pain I was in. I was not disappointed. I'm usually a baby with dentists but Dr. Park was very professional and kind. Kept checking in on me and updating me. I live in Orange County and will drive down to San Pedro every single time. read more

By far the best dentist I've ever been to. Staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. Most importantly they don't upsell or make you do unnecessary procedures. I had an issue I thought would be insanely expensive and they fixed it for a very reasonable price. It is nice knowing a have a dentist I can trust. read more

Dr. Park and his staff accommodated me on short notice (1 week out). I had visited my regular dentist the previous week (1 hr away) with another DDS covering for my regular doctor since he was on vacation. After my cleaning, his stand-in recommended a far more extensive procedure than needed. I'm glad I trusted my gut and sought a more qualified DDS. I discovered A+ Dental with extensive positive reviews now that I live in the South Bay area. I received the best care and treatment from Dr. Park and his staff that a customer could ask for. Dr. Park was very thorough in assessing me during his initial examination and gave me a complete care plan. Throughout the treatment I was kept abreast with each step of the process (even provided visuals). Ultimately Dr. Park was able to do a specific filling that required more precision and skill than most dentists are willing to take on. I am very happy with the end result, also preserving the integrity of my tooth. He treated additional problem areas that would have ultimately lead to more invasive treatments down the road if not combed through with a trained eye on x-ray. Thank you so much and I will be referring friends and family. 10/10 read more

A + dental is a place that matches true to the name , A+! When you first walk in, you are instantly welcomed by the receptionist . You can feel the genuine sincerity of the dental hygienist and how she cares for you as a patient .I felt that I was in good hands as she explained each step of my cleaning and left my teeth feeling squeaky clean. Dr. Park is very gentle and makes you feel comfortable from the moment you sit on the chair till the end of your appointment. It can be nerve wracking before a procedure but he is the type of dentist that will make you feel at ease and will answer questions about any of your concerns. I have the utmost trust and confidence in his abilities as a dentist. He is great at explaining procedures to make you feel comfortable. Thanks Dr.Park! read more

I was in need of a new dentist and saw that Dr. Park cane highly recommended. He exceeded all my expectations expectations. He was incredibly knowledgeable and provided some insight to the recent pain I've been dealing with in my top front teeth. I left with a strategy for how to deal with my tooth pain and how best to increase my flossing. Dr. Park also gave me a great tutorial on how to actually floss.
