Where do I even start? I am so happy I found this dentist.
For starters, I found this dentist along a long list of dentists from my insurance company, which I then cross-referenced on Yelp. I narrowed it down to 3 of my top choices, and Dr. Chau Vu's office was the one who could squeeze us in the earliest possible. Everything with this office has been really easy from the start. Communication has been clear, easy, and hassle-free. From making the appointment over the phone with Laura, to seeing the doctor and receiving care--they have been extremely accommodating throughout it all.
The staff is small here, but they operate efficiently, and the service you receive is exceptional. They are so warm, welcoming, kind, and will literally go out of their way to make you feel comfortable in the office.
My husband was the first one to be seen. He was able to not only get a full exam, but also have a cleaning in the same day. Dr. Vu has incredible attention to detail and was able to pin point areas that needed special attention that our long time dentist prior missed over the years. At first I was a little taken back, but she was patient and willing to show us proof in her diagnoses. Unlike other dentists, she did not push any of this work on us but rather informed us of what she saw. She even pointed out which were the most critical to take care of, and which we could afford to wait longer to take care of. We asked for a quote before work was done, and that was not a problem for the staff. To our surprise, for the amount of work my husband needed, the prices we were charged were very reasonable, thanks to Dr. Vu. Fortunately, there was a cancelation in appointment, so we were able to get some of the work taken care of that day. The dental work itself (according to my husband) was comfortable but efficient. He was so comfortable that he actually fell asleep the second time he came in. :) Dr. Vu took her time and we did not feel rushed. She split the work in two days just to ensure she did the work well. Laura and the doctor even gave my husband a remote control so he could watch TV as he was getting worked on.
As for myself, I have a health situation that restricts me from certain dental work at the moment. Dr. Vu was very professional and consulted my doctor to ensure that I received the best care. While it was inconvenient that my doctor recommended postponing the dental work, Dr. Vu was completely understanding and simply wanted what was in my best interest for my health. Both Laura and Dr. Vu were even kind enough to help me out with some other general questions and concerns that I had about insurance, aside from dental coverage.
While I've only known this office for a week, I can't say enough great things about them. You can definitely tell that they really care. Dr. Vu and Laura are so down-to-earth and kind. They really make you feel like family, and are willing to help however they can. The office seems steadily busy, but not over-booked or stretched-thin like many other dental offices. For this reason, this dental office feels like a complete gem... Quality care, quick to get appointments, gentle dentist, reasonably priced, NO-hassle/sales push, and some amazing staff too. It's just perfect.
A couple of quick tips:
For some reason, the location of the office did not appear in Waze. Be careful if you use Waze, because it will send you to the Anaheim Plaza (500 Euclid), when this office is located at (500 South Euclid). Instead, look up the Subway located at 500 S. Euclid and you should be able to find it. The office is located next door to the nail salon.
As of 04/13/18: Dr. Vu is currently available only on Mondays, Fridays, and Saturdays--hopefully that works with your schedule because she's worth it! :) read more
