    Professional and friendly! Is it weird to say I had a good experience with my root canal?

    First root canal with Dr. Vera procedure was fast and painless. They're very good on follow-up post procedure. Front desk was helpful.

    This review is for Dr. Julia Cheung and her assistant. My treatment at NorCal Endodontics was so…read morewonderful. She was quick, efficient, kind and was personable. I wish I could go to her for all my dental needs instead of going back to a regular dentist. I had a root canal on a tooth that had a previous filling with a cap. She fixed it quickly and sent me on my way. The shots weren't painful and very precise. My mouth wasn't overly numb for hours like usual. Her assistant was also amazing and very knowledgeable. Seriously wish I could go here for normal dental appointments. Thanks guys!

    I am writing to formally express my disappointment regarding the lack of organization and integrity…read moremy daughter and I experienced at this dentist practice. Their disorganization starts at the first phone call. I called their Fremont location, only to find out later they had booked me in Union City because their phone system is a mess. When I booked, I was given a clear quote. On the day of service, the receptionist suddenly added a $50 copay estimate. I paid the $510 requested in full and was handed a receipt that explicitly stated: 'Estimated Patient Balance: $0.00. Two months later, I received an email demanding an additional $50. They refused to honor their own printed receipt and verbal agreement. They would rather chase a $50 clerical error than keep a patient's trust. On top of the shady billing, my daughter had a 2:30 PM appointment for root canal, and the doctor didn't show up until 3:20 PM. Making a student wait 50 minutes past their appointment time. As an in-network provider, they have the tools to see exact coverage. Penalizing a patient months later for an office oversight is bottom-tier service. They care about the $50 but I care about the principle. Go elsewhere."

    Dr. Yvonne Chen is hands down one of the best dentists I've been to. She's extremely knowledgeable,…read morepatient, and takes the time to explain everything clearly, which really puts you at ease. I never feel rushed during appointments, and she genuinely cares about doing what's best for you--not upselling unnecessary treatments. The office is clean, modern, and well run, and the staff is friendly and professional. Appointments run on time, which I really appreciate. Dr. Chen has a calm, gentle approach that makes even dental work that I normally dread feel manageable. If you're looking for a dentist in Fremont who is skilled, honest, and actually cares about patient comfort, I highly recommend Dr. Yvonne Chen.

    Everything from the other reviews talking about recommending overpriced items and shady billing…read morepractices is true. This dentist has been practicing for 20 years according to her website but somehow when my insurance gave her the answer that one of the services had a discount, she insisted she needed to be paid for that service somehow which meant REBILLING it as something else in order for the insurance to grant payment. My yearly maximum was already met which meant it came out of my own pocket. How someone practicing for 20 years can't get their billing straight is beyond me and seems incredibly shady. Whatever, maybe it was truly a mistake right? So next visit, I come back for some fillings and let her know that I was still having some mild pain in the tooth we had done a root canal/crown on last time. Upon hearing this, she freaked out and said she couldn't do the fillings (that I had put off until the new year so my yearly max could reset, so already been waiting months for this) anymore and that I had to go see a different endodontist to see what was wrong with the tooth before she could do the fillings. I told her I've been through this whole thing before. I have one implant already that had 2 failed root canals and I think I am just a poor candidate for root canal since they rarely seem to work on me. No big deal, I'm mentally prepared if I happen to need another implant down the line. I'm more concerned about my mouth as a whole and putting off fillings that have already been put off for months seems unwise in exchange for a tooth that is likely a goner already. Upon hearing this, she told me if I felt that way I could find another dentist to start on the fillings now. So I went to her referred endodontist and he confirmed exactly what I had known deep down, is that I'm likely just a poor candidate for root canals due to the genetics of my roots having multiple connected canals that are difficult to treat. I told him I'd rather not retreat the tooth at this time due to my past experiences and he said that was fine. Went home from this appointment, scheduled a new appointment with a new dentist and canceled my future cleaning with Ms. Chen. I was content to leave our story at that, but later in the week I received a message from her asking how I was doing and confirming she received the report from the endo. I didn't respond, but a few days later I received a CERTIFIED letter of "Termination of doctor/patient relationship". This is something I've never seen in my entire 40 years on the planet. Much Googling explains that it's usually reserved as a last resort for patients who refuse to follow medical advise or are abusive towards staff etc. etc. Here's the kicker though, it was postmarked the EXACT SAME DAY she sent me the message asking how I was doing. So my best guess is she sent the message to me, then one of her staff alerted her to the fact that I had canceled my next cleaning and she got miffed about it so it became a "You can't fire me, I QUIT" type of 'getting the last word' scenario. I did everything she asked me to, including buying one of the expensive electric toothbrushes she insisted was better than the caveman manual toothbrush I've preferred for years. I was never abusive to anyone and was incredibly calm and patient through many frustrating experiences, including during a procedure where she gave me practically 10 tiny shots of novocaine over the course of 45 minutes. She insisted this was the best and safest way to do it. I've been going to dentists my entire life and never had to sit that long to wait to be numbed. Her style is very high strung and afraid of something going wrong. She had prescribed me 5mg valium for the root canal and forced me to call my dad to come pick me up even though I've driven on benzos plenty of times in my life. It's not like she gave me propofol or something... Oh and I couldn't call an uber because the uber driver might do something to me (her words). She also talks down to her staff constantly which caused a lot of second hand cringe for me. Nothing they do is ever up to her insanely high standards, but the staff are all incredibly sweet. Lastly, she was bashing one of my previous providers because he didn't have 50 million 5 star yelp reviews. I told her yelp reviews don't mean everything, but since she seems to think they do, here's another one for the books. UPDATE: New dentist found absolutely no cavities and no reason to do any fillings or replacing of fillings (same as my old dentist before Ms. Chen). Thank god I got away from this woman when I did... She likes to brag about her expensive equipment and now we know how she affords it all.
