I have just completed a very extensive treatment program with Dr. Hwang and I can honestly say that results have been well worth the journey. I was positive that I was destined to have many more implants, but Dr. Hwang was able to preserve my natural teeth with crowns and meticulous bite adjustments. I now understand that each tooth affects every other tooth, and the Doctor took great pains to coordinate their interactions. Dr. Hwang's talents match his dedication and he will give you a new outlook on your dental health. read more

After learning Joe said my son has 6 cavities Joe's team came up with a treatment plan costing $1,327.00 I took my son to my dentist I have been going to for a second opinion and guess what, no cavities needing attention, he just needs a cleaning which we scheduled. Wow, even my dentist front office gal said she has never seen 6 cavities come back like this when asked for a second opinion, never!!! She mentioned two areas only have a very, very, very small signs of something but definitely not needing attention and handing over $1,327.00. The other 4 areas had no signs of anything, WOW, good job Joe!!! If Joe needed cash to make a car payment I rather have him ask me that direct and not do what he did. I would highly recommend EVERYONE get second opinions after Joe and his team provides treatment plans. My son finally revealed the care at Joe place was hash meaning rough treatment during cleanings. He did not like how his staff treated him as well meaning very condescending. My son said his visit at my dentist office was like being with family. Very friendly with guarantees care will be gentle upon his next visit and all to follow. If other find second opinions provide the results ours did, I would hope you will post and let others know. This is so wrong on soooo many levels. I believe in what comes around goes around and I hope one day Joe takes pause and ask himself why did he conduct business in this manner. Its one thing to be detailed regarding service being provided but 4 teeth have nothing and what was discovered on two teeth was next to nothing of concern and shocking to see fees listed at $286.00 and $228.00 for corrections. WOW, 2018 and 2019 around the corner makes me wonder how long Joe has been conducting business like this. I hope the money taken has provided him and his family happiness. read more

I'm not so sure about all of these reviews. I sent my husband based on the wonderful yelp reviews and Dr. Hwang told him is seals were bad and he needed 8 cavities filled. My husband has had routine dental care over the years and ALWAYS takes very good care of his teeth. He is young without any prior dental problems. I understand Hwang to be very good and detailed, however, I felt like they were just trying to make money off my husband & his insurance. They ran all the insurance benefits and planned out the all the procedures to maximize the benefits, which I suppose was nice... However, I was shocked and we got second AND third opinions, one included flying my husband 3000 miles to my trustworthy dentist back home. Both 2nd and 3rd opinions, said that his seals were fine, he had NO cavities, and they couldn't find any reason he needed such work done. I was very disappointed not to find great service here, however my husband has found a wonderful dentist downtown next to his work that has been great. read more

Went in for a cleaning and exam after 2 years going without. Everyone there was extremely nice. The hygienist was very thoughtful and conscientious about my comfort level. Dr. Hwang spent a good amount of time examining my teeth and even took photographs of the problems he saw so I could see/understand what was going on with my teeth. Lastly, the billing person was extremely helpful in making sure I'd know the cost of my follow-up visits. This is the first time I feel like I actually understand what is happening with my mouth! Now, I wouldn't go so far as to say I actually look forward to going to the dentist, but now I don't dread it. read more

Dr. Hwang has an outstanding staff, the latest in technology and he sincerely cares about each patient. That's a pretty rare combination. Nothing but praise from this patient. read more

This is as good as it gets - I had a bit of a dental emergency a couple years back (hockey puck to the face) and Joe and his staff got me in immediately and helped me all the way through it - I now "commute" from Kirkland up to Joe's office a couple times a year for my cleaning and such. There is truly no one I could recommend more than this Family Dental office. Thanks to you all! read more

Great service but felt like they were trying to make money off me because of no dental insurance. When I mentioned that I would have the procedure elsewhere that's cheaper with the same service and standards, Staff insisted that I should do it at dr Hwang's office which was $1400 more than what I ended up paying for when I had the extraction done back home. read more

Dr. Joseph Hwang has an excellent practice. All of his staff and assistants have always been pleasant, professional, and knowledgeable. I have had to have quite a lot of work done due to lack of quality care in the past and lapses in my home care, but Dr. Hwang has been able to come up with effective affordable solutions to all of those issues. His practice has a wholistic approach to oral care, which I appreciate. He also often takes photos and high-quality x-rays so that I can understand more completely what the problem/treatment is and why it is happening. Dr. Hwang and his staff have always been mindful of my time, budget, and comfort during appointments. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing any kind of dental work done! My understanding is that if you Facebook him he has deals for Sonicare toothbrushes and such and if you like his work and refer him to others, he will give you gift cards as a thank you, too. Very generous and worth looking into... read more

Dr. Joe Hwang has been my dentist for about 6 or 7 years, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fabulous dentist that does QUALITY work and won't rip you off. Dr. Hwang is a perfectionist and I've had the best care for my teeth since I started seeing him. The office staff is wonderful, too! I can't say enough nice things about this place and the people that work there. Denise is an insurance guru and will tell you exactly what to expect, how much you need to pay, etc. Did I mention that I drive all the way up to Mountlake Terrace (from Renton) for my dentist appointments, since I no longer live in the north end? Completely out of my way, but yes, he is that good. read more

This Dr. Hwang fellow...I don't understand how this guy has so much energy and enthusiasm on a daily basis. You can obviously tell he takes great pride in his craft. It's like an art form to him. He'll get to brass tacks and more than likely find the gaping inconsistencies your previous dentist failed to address. I'm about to relocate 25 miles away but I will continue to come here to see him and the crew. It's like therapy for your teeth. read more

I absolutely hate the dentist. I have severe anxiety relates to dental work and white knuckle the chair the entire experience. Until I saw Joe an his staff. They do everything possible to make you comfortable. They have noise canceling head phones so that u can listen to your own music and nitrous ready to roll. They also make you a part of the team, teaching you about your own teeth. When I had a question, Joe would take a pic or draw it out for me. No more mystery dentist visits!! I no longer want to run screaming from the chair the minute someone comes at me with a piece of floss. It really is because these wonderful people here! read more

If you are looking for a dentist with a modern holistic approach to long-term dental healthcare Dr. Hwang is your guy. I have had many dentists in my life, and most were okay, but none compare to the attention and skill I've received from Dr. Hwang and his team. Top to bottom these people are the best! read more

Standard of care and compliance level is 5 plus stars! Dr Hwang and staff are there to treat the public top notch! Trust in their dedication to quality dentistry!! read more

I love Joe and the girls here. I went for a few years without going to the dentist after I moved to Seattle from Central Oregon because my former dentist in Oregon was fantastic. I didn't want to be disappointed. Thankfully, Joe is the greatest at what he does, always doing the best work possible. He's also personable....he was humming songs to Rammstein with me while working on my teeth. :) I will forever love this guy. Thanks! read more

Dr Hwang rocks..he cares about his patients and it shows..he is gentle and kind..and cares about dental education. His staff is great and personable as well...the front desk staff always make you feel welcome!! read more

Dr. Joe Hwang and his staff are great! Everyone in the office is friendly, knowledgeable, and it is obvious that they really enjoy what they do. Plus, I know they are considerate of my schedule because my appointments always start on time. I will definitely be back in 6 months for another check up! read more

I had a broken filling that was bothering me when I first went in. They did a deep clean that took up two appointments before scheduling anything for my troubled tooth. The deep cleanings used up quite a bit of my early benefit amount and the hygienist lectured me on not drinking coffee for more than 10 minutes a day. She was condescending and did not seem to listen to my concern about my tooth. I will not be going back. I am seeing another dentist who was able to see my for my tooth quickly. read more

Went to Hwang's office based of Yelp reviews and wow what a racket. Hwang is very smart, seems empathetic and professional, however his team will attempt to manipulate you into any unnecessary work done as much as possible. My family also went once to visit him and they only had time for a 1/2 deep cleaning for my wife and was surprised to see a bill for $200 after they charged insurance the full amount! a few weeks later Hwang's office had the audacity to insist she needed the other 1/2 of the deep cleaning in order to move forward on a crown she needed ... Seriously $400 out of pocket for teeth cleaning forced in 2 visits who does that??? Our current DDS has everything covered under her insurance AND IT HASN'T CHANGED. Congrats on your new fancy house, car or whatever it is your team worked hard at milking both insurance (which I can understand) and your patients for. On a good note they did a great job with my daughter and she was happy... but most anything involving a treat or toy at the end would make most kids happy. Also a note the dental assistant who cleaned my teeth did a great job, however she was super argumentative on small talk she initiated ... I'm sorry lady but Washington does have unpredictable weather, Fog, Sun, Rain and hail HAVE all happened on the same day, maybe you were having a bad day who knows, but don't take it out on your clients. read more

Dr. Hwang and especially his staff are the best! They explain what is going on, ease any concerns, and do a great job. I always feel comfortable going to the dentist now. I can tell everyone there is dedicated to improving the oral health of their patients. They are usually very busy and make sure to get you in as soon as they can and will call if any appointments open up sooner etc. I was recommended by a friend as they love it there too. Thank you! read more

Dr Hwang is fantastic. I'm new to the area so just went online to find a dentist close to me who might be able to work on some issues I was having. He has been very patient, very helpful, and very knowledgeable at what he is doing. He has given me different options on what can be done with my teeth and different procedures he can do. His staff has been up front with me on the costs and worked with me and my insurance company to get me the best rates. Nothing but praise for this dentist. read more

Dr. Joe Hwang is AWESOME! I have never had a dentist that cared so much for my overall health not just my oral Health. He talked to a good friend of mine regarding her health during her pregnancy and educated her about pregnancy gingivitis and made sure she was taking her prenatal pills and seeing her OBGYN...WOW I was so impressed as was she. Dr. Joe is amazing, he truly is one of a kind. He is very skilled in dentistry and knowledgeable. He does great work! He educates his patients and on their dental needs. And explains treatment in detail. He truly cares like no other dentist I have been to. I highly recommend him for your dental needs. And he is great with kids. Thanks Dr. Joe you SO ROCK. I always look forward to seeing you and your staff. Keep up the great work. We are lucky to have you! read more

If you are looking for a skilled dentist and friendly/efficient staff, Dr. Joseph Hwang and his team are AS GOOD AS IT GETS! It's a no-brainer 5-star rating from me! My husband has been going to Dr. Hwang's office for over 7 years, and my kids and I are going on our 2nd year (we transferred from another clinic which was under my old plan). One can tell Dr. Hwang enjoys his craft and thrives on teaching good dental habits and creating beautiful smiles. He makes the time to create an individualized dental health plan, but also makes time to get to know the individual patient he is caring for! His administrative team and dental staff are all very personable and highly competent in their jobs too. We know them all by first name (which is rare for us with any clinic). One can tell that Dr. Hwang and his team love their jobs and value each other; their teamwork shines through in the excellent dental service they provide as a team. On top of that, Dr. Hwang gives back to the community and has sponsored several youth events and individual activities. My daughter was a beneficiary of such a sponsorship, when she tried out for a pre-teen pageant- to develop her burgeoning interest in fashion and confidence-building. It was so kind of Dr. Hwang to sponsor her; we knew he was not only a talented dentist but also a caring, down-to-earth individual! Our whole family enjoys our dentist visits because we know the team will ensure that each visit will be as pleasant as possible. read more
