I've been going to this dentist for about five years now, and I can confidently say the quality of…read morecare has been consistently excellent. Over the years, I've had everything from routine cleanings to more involved procedures, and every visit has been handled with professionalism, patience, and attention to detail. He always takes the time to thoroughly explain what's going on, walks through options clearly, and answers questions without ever making you feel rushed. What I appreciate most is the consistency. The office is always clean and organized, appointments run on time, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. You can tell the entire team takes pride in what they do. He's also proactive about preventative care. Instead of just fixing problems, he explains what to watch for and how to maintain long-term dental health. That kind of transparency builds trust -- and after five years, I trust him completely. If you're looking for a dentist who is skilled, honest, and genuinely invested in his patients, I highly recommend him.

I asked on 5/4 for a letter of medical necessity for my upcoming procedure on 5/18. On 5/18 they didn't have it so I reminded them and they said they'd email it; no email. 5/20 I call and ask about it, I'm told I'll be emailed; no email. Now it's 5/27 I call again and I'm told I'll be updated.. we'll see. My FSA rolled over and the deadline for submissions is 6/1. I thought by asking on 5/4 I wouldn't have to worry about being out $1,600 AND losing the $1,600 in my FSA but here we are. I think I'll go somewhere else for the semi-annual service I need and avoid the headache.

Several years ago I was basically forced into having my wisdoms out WHILE PREGNANT. The dentist…read moreknew I was pregnant and told me it was the Perfect time because I was in my second trimester. He specifically said "it's the perfect time." Well that perfect time turned into a hell of a two hour procedure which at the end all of the Novacaine had worn off and the dentist was seriously irritated that it was taking so long and that I was in pain - he gave me nothing for the pain and sent me on my way. I drove home sobbing. Being pregnant then I couldn't take Advil and was forced to take Tylenol. I returned to the dentist several times over the next two weeks in extreme pain and was met with an eye roll and the statement that nothing could be done. I am convinced that it was this traumatic procedure and the amount of medications that I had to take for the pain that led to my son being born with autism. Unfortunately, I went to this dentist office for several years and can confirm every single cavity or crown procedure that I had done there needed to be redone multiple times because of how bad these dentists are. I don't know why it took me this long to write this review but people need to know about the risk of going here - sure they have GREAT hours for working people but it's simply not worth it.

Pain free and I was a happy camper. Thank you Dr. Wes Sato! I'll stay away from toffee for now.

Then I was blessed to experience Dr. Ho's special technique, in which he uses a special angle or ideal pressure or magic to deliver the injection so that it almost feels pleasant. That coupled with the time Dr. Ho's Office Manager, Char, pointed out how timing certain dental procedures to coincide with insurance coverage renewal would save me over a thousand dollars, made me feel so lucky to have been accepted as a patient. And when considering the unbelievable courtesy and warm professionalism of the rest of his staff, I'm sorry for being reluctant to write an honest review until now. Just being selfish.

And when I tried to reschedule they did everything to not schedule me in, first they tried pushing me 2 months out hoping I'd just say no, but when I accepted to their surprise, they quickly changed doctors to some other doctor I don't even know, then when I asked for Dr Ho, suddenly he became unavailable... it's just too obvious come on now.. On my first visit Dr Ho didn't even greet me or just say Hi. I was a business owner for 12 years and that's definitely not how I treated my clients. I'm not a number, I'm a human being who is reaching out to get help from a doctor who apparently won't even talk to you if you don't have your X rays done.. what is this a military boot camp come on? Saying hello only takes less than a minute and if it's not in your heart to give another human being just 1 minute of your time then I definitely think you shouldn't be working on my teeth. I feel this office prioritizes money & time over wanting to genuinely help people. So much for this referral, congratulations on you being the best dentist in town I'll look elsewhere.

Routine cleaning gone wrong:…read more 2/5 stars because the dentist did a pretty good job fixing a chipped tooth the first time I went in, but only 2/5 stars because I mostly go there for routine cleanings which kept getting worse and worse until I literally had to walk out half way through during my last cleaning. The hygienest didn't like when I asked her to skip the chit chat as she tends to talk my ear off and her whiplash to my request was very unpleasant. She was going off on a rant for ten minutes about random things before I had to cut her short and asked to just focus on the cleaning. She then became careless, apathetic, and mechanical while rushing to complete the job. Her metal toothpick abruptly punctured a gap between my teeth below the gum line prying them apart and separating the gap between my teeth even more which caused me a lot of pain. I immediately stood up and walked out. I was left with a major tooth ace, gum pain and a severe migraine for the rest of the day. In fact its been 12 hours and half my face is still throbbing in pain. I am left wondering if this what at all intentional?
