Top notch attention and real courtesy. A pleasure (I know!), too go there. Courteous AND Professional service. No lollipop afterward though. Watsup wit dat? read more

So annoyed. Called on 1/29/2024 to make an appointment. Front office confirmed my insurance and set me up for an appointment on 2/29/2024. I get a text THE EVENING BEFORE MY APPOINTMENT on 2/28/2024 to ask about my insurance. Then they tell me my insurance is out of network and to call them the next day during business hours to talk about plan details. How unprofessional and a waste of time!! The front desk confirmed my appointment when I initially called. Then they wait one month and text me after business hours the day before my appointment to ask about my insurance again??? I canceled my appointment and let them know their service was disappointing. I would avoid this place. read more

all my family- wife, me, daughter , son in law & three grandchildren have used Dr. Lee as our dentist. the staff is helpfull, efficient, cares about their clients, & does good work. Easy parking. read more

I really wanted to support and appreciate this local family practice. However, taking my toddler to this appointment revealed a complete disregard for children or a family. Not only are there no available safe places for a kid to wait, no toys, no attention paid to us, but the experience was cold and unwelcome. because of a series of forms that took less than 2 minutes, we were callously bumped to wait an additional 45 minutes before being seen. An extra 45 minutes with a 2 year old is a lifetime. The front desk staff made me feel like a burden and a nuisance instead of warm or welcome. On top of that, they forgot to polish and floss my husband's teeth?!?! when I asked about it, simply said it was a mistake -- with no apology. Offering for us to come back for more time to polish and floss after this rude experience is laughable. Honestly, I just wanted some kindness and respect. I will not return, though I like Dr. Lee. read more

I called to schedule an ortho consultation. The receptionist who picked up the phone was pretty rude and dismissive. She seemed to keep trying to send me away, saying things like, "Your current dental office doesn't offer invisalign?" and similar comments like that. She also said, "Well we only have Invisalign and not traditional braces, so I'll give you the contact info for some other offices in Alameda." I had to quickly stop her and say that Invisalign is what I'm looking for. I don't understand why she kept trying to get me off the phone. I honestly felt pretty uncomfortable because I just wanted to make an appointment, but she made it very difficult, and seemed to not want new patients. I ended up just saying that I would try to call another office much to her satisfaction. She seemed glad and quickly hung up the phone. This was a very awkward conversation. They should probably get a new receptionist who is more friendly and welcoming. I work in the healthcare field too, and would never be so dismissive towards a new patient =( read more

Very nice and caring staff and doctors. I'm glad to have found a dental office close by that I can trust. And I want to say hi to Salina .

Always care for you and do their best to help you figure out everything with insurance and good care!

Very nice facility. Friendly staff. Organized and the care for the patients is excepcional.

WHEN: Wednesday @10am It's so good to be back! I've gone to other locations and its just not the same! PARKING: They have their own parking lot! Even if there are not spots available (which never happens), you can park on the street for free since this office is in a neighborhood. OFFICE AMBIANCE: Clean, no carpets, nice wooden cabinets. They always have good music playing (good old classics) and it just feels overall clean and new enough! I thought I'd arrive early in case there were papers to fill out. I just had one paper to sign since its been 2 years since I've been here, and they seated me 15 minutes early, woo-hoo! Dr. Fora and "B" worked with me this time and I had a blast. Those ladies were so friendly and I just felt I can trust them. I didn't need my x-rays done since I had that taken care of at the previous location. They had me rinse with Hydrogen Peroxide, which is a new thing since covid-19. With B assisting, Dr. Fora: + Checked my jawline to check for any abnormalities + Measured the height of the bone by probing my gum pockets. Healthy tissue with a score of 1-3 is good, 4 is borderline (possibly inflammation/tarter), and 5-6 indicates gun loss/bone disease. By the way, I appreciated how quick and gentle she was--the most painless and least uncomfortable experience yet! + Demonstrated how to brush and floss my teeth properly (I learned something new--at this age) hahah + Cleaned (scaling) every nook and cranny of my teeth with an ultrasonic scaler. Since it may splash, I was given eye protection. + Scraped (scaling) any residual tarter with a hand instrument. I really appreciate Dr. Fora for going to town on my front fill because there is a subtle stain that has been bothering me for years and other dentists didn't even really bother. Luckily I'm not sensitive to scraping sounds, and it's just SO satisfying knowing she is removing the stain and she did such a great job! THANK YOU! Dr. Fora asked if I had any questions and concerns and then B flossed and polished by teeth! I was given my goodie bag (toothbrush, toothpaste, but no floss this time), and I was done at 10:30am! See you again in 6 months! read more

Amazing team! I have the biggest fear of dentists as I've had unnecessarily major dental work done as a teen. Unfortunately I let my dental health decline and hadn't been to my regular cleaning appointments in a while. After a 2am tooth pain wake up call from my body I decided it was time to go. I also developed TMJ as a side effect from medication which caused unbearable pain and discomfort I mistook for tooth pain. Anyways, not only did they fit me in last minute for a couple appointments but they even created a new treatment plan and explained everything in detail. Everyone is so warm, gentle and kind I really enjoy their company. This is a huge bonus when fear is running through my veins. I was able to remain calm and get through my appointments. (Tip: bring headphones for the drilling noise) Leah is an absolute lifesaver! She's super sweet, gentle, caring, kind and very helpful. Selena is awesome! She helped me relax and get through my appointments easily. I'm so sorry I forgot the other dental assistant name but she's equally as awesome. Dr. Noe and Dr.Lee and absolutely amazing. Very kind, gentle, informative an thorough. Most definitely recommend this team! read more

I have had many positive experiences in the past but wanted to write about my most recent. I was having some serious pain in a tooth and they were able to squeeze me in 8am Saturday. after checking things out they referred me to an Endocare group for and had me wait and they set up a same day appointment. Well things didn't go perfect there. During the procedure to other group broke a crown on the tooth next to it. I stopped back at Amy Lee assuming i was setting up an appointment a week or two later to fix but instead they had me come in, make a crown and fixed that day. Her and her group stayed an extra hour or two after closing to make sure I was ok. I think most dentists a) probably wouldn't have gotten me in that quick b) wouldn't have made sure my endo appointment was so quick and C) definitely wouldn't have given up their Saturday afternoon to fix an error by someone else. read more

I really enjoyed my visits with Dr. Lee, however the last visits I was super traumatized with the experience I had. It wasn't with Dr. Lee, it was with another Dr. whom I forgot the name. I had a deep cleaning done. The doctor used so much local anesthesia that my whole mouth and lips was swollen for a whole day, no, that was not the worst. The worst part is she finished in less than half an hour. For the many times I have had deep cleaning it usually lasts more than an hour and they take time to really deep clean your gums. However that wasn't the case. Not only was I charged for my services which I never understood, but I felt that it was so dishonest what the doctor did. Aside from that depending on who the hygienist is, the one I had was super aggressive and rushing through her work. She put me through so much pain and was so harsh in her work that I felt the urge to tell her immediately. I'm not one to complain and hope they can change, however after this experience I will not ever go back not only they charge you on top of what my insurance has already paid for I feel that this are completely dishonest. read more

I've seen Dr. Lee for over 10+ years. I've gotten braces and Invisalign with her. Dr. Lee is a great orthodontist who is knowledgeable, caring, and patient. The same can be said for her staff. The office is clean and organized. Shoutout to Jo as well, a member on her staff who is incredibly sweet and nice. Cherry, who works the front desk, is great as well. She is accommodating and organized and did a fine job. read more

Dr. Lee's office has consistently offered positive experience to me and my wife, and that is rare for a Dental office. Leah at the front desk is always very helpful with scheduling and makes it a point to remember patients. Dr. Lee is knowledgeable and offers good advice, and the insurance side of things is very easy because of how good they are with submitting claims. I feel like part of the family when I visit and I feel welcome and comfortable no matter the reason I'm visiting. Each station has modern equipment and feels clean and new. The technology they use to show you your teeth is amazing. I've never had that experience at an office before as I am from a small town, and I don't think I would live without it now. Dr. Li's office has made some great recommendations for our Invisalign and root canals which has saved us a great deal of time, money, and given us a great overall experience with caring for our teeth. I would definitely recommend their office and continue to go there despite several moves. They are practicing very safe measures during COVID-19 and we felt protected every step of the way when we got our teeth cleaned and emergency dental work done. Thanks Dr. Lee and staff! read more

This dental office is great. I highly recommend it. This is the third year that I have been a patient at Dr. Amy Lee's dental office. I picked this dental office by the many amazing reviews on Yelp. My first visit was great. Dr. Lee is friendly, outgoing, very knowledgeable and the best dentist I have ever had the pleasure to be a patient at. Every time I have an appointment I get seen right away and am treated very nicely by all the staff. Dr. Lee is a virtually painfree dentist. I am so happy I get to be a patient of Dr. Lee. I recently referred my husband to this office and he was very happy with this office too. I do not have dental insurance and the rates are very fair and reasonable. I truly give this business my highest recommendation. read more

Called the office this morning as a new patient with a broken front tooth. They got me in to fix my tooth and made future appointments to get everything taken care of. Not sure what I would've done if I had not found this office today. ....I would've been snaggy tooth for no telling how long. But I got my smile back! :) Thank you Dr. Tran and staff, I will be seeing you soon! read more

I do not recommend this dentist. I went there for a tooth chip repair. The dentist let me leave with the blue paper ingrained into my tooth and said it would come off with simple brushing. It did not. I went back to have it corrected and the dental assistant had to file it off with a machine--something I am not capable of at home but somehow the dentist let me leave like that!! Additionally, after not receiving any bill yet, the office called me threatening to send me to collection. They then called my emergency contact, and caused panic because they told him they had not heard from me. He literally thought I was missing because of their communication. I called them immediately to pay my bill and understand why they would call my emergency contact and cause alarm. Later I learned they also called MY MOTHER who thought I was in the hospital because of what was initially said to her. She was SCARED. Update: The office sent my bill Sept 29 and threatened to turn me over to collections on October 1. Two days after they mailed my bill. In response to me being upset about them unnecessarily calling my emergency contacts and worrying my family, they said "I hope you understand I was just doing my job." These are bad business practices and the dentist clearly didn't care that I left with the job incomplete. I would never go back to this office. read more

I moved to the area almost four years ago and found Dr Lee only within the last two years. Dr. Lee has a great manner, is totally thorough, and very professional. She doesn't have one of those practices where they try to sell you everything from filling cavities that aren't really there to overpriced whitening procedures just to make a higher profit. I've been to those before and hated them. Dr. Lee pointed out some recession of my gums and suggested filling/covering them, but only if it was bothering me and only if I thought it was necessary. Dr. Lee has the best staff I've encountered. Leah is the gal up front and handled setting my appointment and helping me with my insurance. She found ways to help save me money. I like that. She is always smiling and made me feel welcome and gave me a sense that they really wanted me there as a patient and NOT a number on a billing spreadsheet. Vivian and Margie have done my cleanings before. They both have a great manner and a purposeful yet light touch. Neither one made my gums bleed during flossing. Dr. Lee is the perfect dentist if you live anywhere near Alameda. As long as I remain in the local area Dr. Lee will be my dentist. I would definitely recommend her and her staff to anyone. read more

My kid got great service for his orthodontic treatment from Dr. Lee. A very challenging task, but Dr. Lee worked with anther specialist and did a very good job for my kid's molar teeth. The staffs and nurses there are very friendly and helpful. read more

I have been to many dentists over the last 60 years and have not the most satisfactory experience that I have recently had with Dr Amy Lee. Very professional and caring. Did teeth work very gently such that I didn't have any discomfort as I had with so many other dentists. Would highly recommend her. Trust her completely read more

Wowww, where do I start. Very helpful people work here. They communicate with their customers very well and I got the best appointment time I could get. Margie cleaned my teeth, she was amazing. I had my teeth cleaned many times, but this time it was done very professionally, pain free, and clean. I am going to recommend this place to my friends and sticking with this place! If you need your teeth cleaned ask for Margie. read more

I was a patient of Dr. Lee for 5 years. During that time she and her office were great. I actually didn't hate going to the dentist. Doctor Lee and her staff were the best. Anyway, I visited Dr.Lee every 6 months for years. I had my final appointment last summer, and in the fall I moved away. In December I went to a new dentist in a new city. The new dentist found some pretty extreme gum loss that will require surgery to correct. The new dentist showed me the x-rays and explained the gum loss had occurred over time, over many months. The new dentist could not explain why Dr. Lee hadn't seen the problem over the last year, not to mention at my last appointment 5 months before. I contacted Dr. Lee's office for an explanation twice and was promised a reply - maybe the new dentist was scamming me? Dr.Lee never responded. As such, I have an appointment for a second opinion next week; hoping to avoid painful very expensive surgery. In any case, even if Dr. Lee is not at fault, a responsible dentist would have gotten back to me. So I can not recommend Dr. Lee or her office to anyone. Update - a second opinion verified it: I need $7500 worth of surgery that my insurance will only pay half of. Thanks for nothing Dr. Lee. I oughtta sue. read more

I recently joined Dr. Lee and have been VERY happy with it. My gums don't bleed when the hygenists clean my teeth (they did before), I don't grip the seat arms, I don't dread going to the dentist. I liked it so much I brought my son to be worked on. I know it is odd to say that I enjoy the dentist, but Dr. Lee is far and above what I have experienced before. If you dread your current dentist, i suggest trying a visit with Dr. Lee. I accepted the previous because I just thought that the way it was. read more

Nothing against Dr. Lee, she's great! Low rating due to lack of information provided 1. I was not advised that my appointment was not with Dr. Lee when I confirmed the appointment, instead it's another hygienist and boy she's rough 2. My company changed insurance plan this year, when I called to check if I can still go, they didn't tell me that I need to pay out of my pocket and now I got a statement almost 1 month after the visit won't go back read more

Today was my first time at Dr. Lee's office. I am very impressed with the quality of service, work and professionalism by Dr. Lee and her team. I was a bit past due my regular cleaning, so I came in a bit nervous. Dr. Lee and her team made me feel very comfortable so I had no need to be nervous. Everything that was explained to me was very thorough. The cleaning procedure was excellent. No numbing required as Dr. Lee is truly skilled. Highly recommended. Thank you Dr. Lee! read more

Thia place is awesome. Booked an appointment with Dr. Lee after having a terrible experience at Alameda Landing Dentistry. The same day, she reassured my bf that he'd be able to get a deep cleaning and she kept her promise despite it having been his first visit. She and her staff are extremely passionate about what they do. We were told at the previous dentist that he'd need laser treatments for supposed periodontal disease. At this dentist, she said that he'd just need a deep cleaning and it'd be resolved by the next visit. They are completely HONEST and not money hungry. I highly suggest going to this dentist. They are efficient, knowledgable, and NEVER condescending nor judgmental. This is the best dental experience we've ever had. Thank you Dr. Lee for your exemplary service! read more

I love Dr Lee. She is so friendly, and kind. She has a very calm spirit, and really cares about her patients well being. Thank you Dr Lee! Also, Leah at the front desk is a great representation of the office. She is friendly, has a great smile, and will always try to accommodate you. Thanks Leah! read more

I found Dr. Lee based on my insurance website and on Yelp reviews. The whole practice is very kind, knowledgeable, and great at what they do! The facilities are very clean and updated, too. I needed new xrays, a cleaning, and a filling re-done. They were very diligent about making sure everything was covered by my insurance, and let me know how everything would work along the way in terms of scheduling all the appointments, billing my insurance, etc. Dr. Lee did the cleaning and filling herself, and was very gentle and sure to communicate what she was doing. She was so great that I'm actually looking forward to going back for another cleaning! read more

This is the nicest group of people I have ever encountered in my dental adventures. They didn't judge me for not having been in to the dentist in 4+ years (due to life complications), and they got a cleaning appointment in for me right away. One of my previous dentists used to scape away at my teeth with no regard for my tender gums, but not Dr. Lee! She and her dental assistants are all gentle and kind. I wasn't worried at all. Today, I just got 3 fillings done. The drilling doesn't bother me, but the numbing shot does. I was anxious with the needle, but I was not in any pain! Dr. Lee is very considerate of the anxieties people have at the dentist. I even got nauseous after the shots (I forgot to eat lunch beforehand), and they gave me a yogurt! It really helped me feel better, I was at ease during the whole procedure. I am so glad to have found such a great dentist! I look forward to my next cleaning. read more

Dr. Amy Lee is the best there is. She is not trying to scheme her clients out of money and will give a very honest assessment of your teeth and the work you need done. I was told my several dentists that even with a root canal my tooth was a lost cause and I would have to get an implant. If you know anything about implants they are painful, take a long time, and are very expensive. I wanted just one more opinion so I found myself in Dr. Lee's office and I told her the dilemma I was in. She assessed my tooth and told me she thinks she was able to salvage my tooth and put a crown on it. I almost burst into tears knowing that what would've cost me thousands will only cost me a couple hundred dollars. She was able to book me the following day and the procedure was painless. I think I found my go-to dentist! read more

I just had a couple of dental procedures done here and I have to say it really is as good as it gets! The staff here are warm and friendly, and Dr. Lee is very thorough and professional. Also, the work they did was really great. Dr. Lee and her staff bent over backwards to make sure I was comfortable, warm, entertained and had every need taken care of while they worked on my teeth. Ample parking, easy to find, comfortable office. Not trendy, but VERY GOOD CARE and VERY FAIR PRICES. Dr. Lee seems more interested in helping people then upselling which is SO REFRESHING! I felt very cared for and again, couldn't be happier with the front office staff or her dental assistants. read more

Dr. Amy Lee is the most sweetest honest dentist I've ever been too! She always does a good thorough cleaning my teeth always feel great leaving her office. Not the mention the front desk receptionist is amazing! She is so sweet and helpful. Their quality service, and positive energy and nice attitudes is what keeps me coming back. As long as I'm in the Bay Area Amy Lee is the dentist for me! Thank you to all the staff here! read more

I'm so lucky to have found Dr. Lee who took me at a moment's notice. Her efficient staff found my dental insurance and booked me right away. A filling on my tooth had chipped off and she fixed it up and I was able to eat again right after my appointment. Yay for Dr. Lee and her great staff. read more

This review is a bit overdue, as I started going to Dr. Lee about 2 years ago. (Never finished my Yelp review). Did I tell you that I'm really afraid of dentists? Well I was until I met Dr. Amy Lee. I was referred to Dr. Lee by my co-workers. I first called Dr. Lee's office and spoke to Maxine. Maxine was so patient and understanding of my fear of the dentist chair and everything that went along with it. She said come in and we will take it very slow....if you don't feel comfortable we can stop at any time. Dr. Lee and her assistant, Jennifer, are the best! Dr. Lee cleaned my teeth and since it was a few years since I visited the dentist she took extra care in all the sensitive areas.... it was amazing. Sadly I had 2 cavities but Dr. Lee filled both cavities and it was painless. My daughter is now a patient of Dr. Lee's and I will continue to refer my friends and family to Dr. Lee. read more

Amy Lee has been my dentist for ten years and I couldn't be happier with the service by everyone at the office. A warm, friendly, comfortable experience every time. And genuinely caring and extremely efficient service in times of dental emergencies. Highly recommended. read more

My insurance was about to get canceled, I called to make a new patient appointment. So glad Maxine was able to get me in that same week. My appointment was with Dr. Ting(Dr. Lee was on vacation) which went very well. Dr. Ting was nice, patient, engaging, helpful and made me super comfortable. Once I get new insurance I am definitely coming here instead of my other dds I go to. Thanks to Maxine, Dr. Ting and Jaimie! read more

The cleaning was very thorough, and Dr. Lee did a good job explaining her findings and what she was looking for and saw on X-rays. Best dental experience that I've ever had! read more

Got my first appointment there and I am very pleased and will come back. Amy Lee made everything to avoid any pain. She explained everything. Very nice dentist, I highly recommend. read more

I hadn't been to a dentist in a few years and was scared that I might have finally ruined my teeth & gums beyond repair. Fortunately, with the help of Dr. Lee and her assistant Vivian, that was not the case. I did require some deep cleaning but that was all taken care of painlessly during my first visit. Afterwards Dr Lee reviewed my digital X-rays and assured me that my teeth were fine as long as I kept up the maintenance. Of course I'll be seeing them in six months! read more

Dr. Lee and her staff are wonderful. My brother referred me to her when I moved back the Bay Area. He office is lovely and parking is never an issue. The equipment she uses is the latest and greatest and reminiscent of Star Trek with all the gadgets. You can also watch TV during your procedure as they have flat screens on the ceiling at each work station or listen to your ipod. Most importantly though is her touch and active listening skills. She really cares about your comfort level and seems genuine. The staff are very friendly and they keep my toddler entertained. He loves the treasure chest of toys to play with. She has extended her services to include cosmetic dentistry such as Invisalign and teeth whitening. If I proceed with the other services I'll write an update. read more
