I saw both Dr Jozef Labedzki and Dr Ming Liu at this dental clinic and both are equally good. My…read morefriend recommended Dr Liu when I was lamenting about finding a good dentist in Vancouver. My previous dentist is no longer practising and the two dentists I saw at two different clinics were not very good in diagnosing. So I fractured my molar and the receptionist managed to fit me in for an emergency consultation with Dr Liu. Kudos to that. I had a CT scan done and it looked like a root canal would be required and maybe an implant if the tooth could not be saved. Dr Liu referred me to Dr Labedzki as his schedule was packed and the next available time he had would be a week later. Dr Labedzki also took a look at my molar on the same day and took an additional x-ray (at no extra charge to me) for a detailed diagnosis. From the scan and x-ray, he had the same opinion as Dr Liu - likely root canal plus a crowning. I have a phobia of implant after my last experience a few years ago. I saw Dr Labedzki a couple of days later for the procedure and he took the time to properly freeze the affected area so that the pain would be minimized. In the end, a root canal was not required as it was not affected after all. A temporary restoration was done to the molar after the fractured part was removed and he recommended to do a crowning at a later date to protect the tooth better. Through my experience with both dentists, I find that they do put the patients' teeth first and will try to save it. They also do not charge extra or unnecessary items (maybe because I do not have insurance coverage) and I appreciate that. So yes, I have finally found a dentist whom I can go to for regular check up now.

I found the dentist, Tara Kim, extremely condescending. She chastised me for not having my teeth…read morecleaned not once, not twice but THREE times even though I tried to explain to her that I hadn't visited a dentist in a while due to the pandemic, and I was in contact with immunocompromised family members so had to be careful. I get that she's just doing her job, but some people have different circumstances. The first time she said it, ok, but after the third time, it was EXTREMELY annoyingly. She showed no empathy/compassion and probably just thought I was making excuses. Needless to say, I was not impressed with her attitude and lack of respect. My previous dentist was knowledgeable and encouraged me to keep my teeth healthy, but had a way of being really nice about it and never made me feel terrible. Even when I showed hesitation in getting my wisdom tooth extracted (I was clearly nervous) and asked her what my options were, she very plainly said, "you can do nothing or get it removed!". Like I know that Sherlock; I was looking for more information and reasoning. One of the worst dentists I've encountered and lacks experience in patient care and bedside manner. Do not recommend - seek an alternative dentist. I will say though that the receptionists were very kind, courteous and attentive. They answered my questions politely and respectfully.

The team at Shaughnessy Dental is as good as it gets…read more I have been to a series of dentists over the past decade, and none have treated me with the same level of care, accuracy, and success as this office. When you first walk into the place, the assistants are friendly, helpful, and genuinely smile at you. I have personally been working with Dr. Ryan Lauwers, who has done a wonderful job. Upon joining the clinic, Dr. Lauwers gave me a full inspection, so their records would be fully up-to-date. No big deal, right? Not only did he do this, but he proceeded to explain to me each of the tests that he performed, in simple, easy to understand words. The testing was comprehensive - covering things as far as my jaw. In terms of actual procedures, this place has been a gem. It's about as easy and painless as it gets. I had to have a wisdom tooth removed about a month ago. It was causing me pain, and I was worried, because Christmas was coming up. The practice immediately fitted me, less than 5 days. A different dentist, Dr. Sara Bishara, performed the procedure, and was so gentle and kind. She was sociable and friendly, making sure I didn't experience any discomfort, and also quick. This practice is a phenomenal find.
