    Dr. Young is kind, gentle, thorough and a very skilled dentist. I've been going to him for a few years. I'd recommend him to others

    Even though we have moved to the East Bay, we still drive or take BART to San Francisco to see Dr Young.

    Dr. Wang is a great listener, careful practitioner, and just great to have as my dentist. Dental…read moreassistants are professional. The front office staff has great communication and when I have had an urgent matter they get me in as quickly as they can. I don't feel like they are trying to sell me anything - just good care.

    During my deep cleaning with Dr. Leila Jamshidi, the appointment felt very rushed. I've had deep…read morecleanings before, and they have always been much more thorough and taken considerably longer. One side of my mouth was completed in about 12-15 minutes. When I returned for the other side, I experienced significant discomfort during the procedure. Dr. Jamshidi told me she had accidentally poked a blood vessel and that I might feel jittery for a few minutes, which would pass. While I appreciated the explanation, I was surprised that there wasn't any acknowledgment or apology for what had happened or for the discomfort I experienced. A couple of weeks later, I returned to discuss my concerns and saw Dr. Wang. Unfortunately, that visit wasn't much better. I felt my concerns were dismissed, as I was repeatedly told the deep cleaning had gone well and that there was nothing wrong with my gums. I mentioned that gargling with warm salt water may have helped relieve some of the discomfort afterward, but my point was that I didn't expect to need home remedies after a routine dental procedure. I left feeling unheard and unsatisfied with the care I received. My wife also had a similar experience. During her appointment with Dr. Leila Jamshidi, she felt that the dental hygienist was more thorough and attentive than the dentist, which reinforced our shared impression that the quality and consistency of care have declined. What made these experiences especially disappointing is that I had previously been treated by Dr. Mathai, who was always thorough, attentive, and took the time to explain everything. The difference in care and communication was very noticeable. We've been patients at this practice for years, and its convenient location is one of the reasons we've continued to come back. That's what makes this so disappointing. It's genuinely sad that, after so many years, we've reached the point where we feel we need to find another dentist. I've also noticed what seems to be a high turnover of providers, which has made the patient experience feel less consistent. While the office has added nice touches like a beverage center, amenities like that don't make up for a decline in the quality of care and service. The one bright spot throughout my visits has been Mackenzie. She has always been warm, welcoming, and kind when checking patients in and scheduling appointments. She consistently made me feel comfortable and valued, and I truly appreciated her professionalism. After two experiences that left me questioning the quality of care--and seeing my wife have a similar experience--I've decided it's time to find another dentist. I hope this feedback is taken in the spirit it's intended: as constructive feedback that helps improve communication, consistency, and the overall patient experience.
