Lee family Dentistry is wonderful. Great work from Dr Lee and the staff was amazing. Everyone was professional and friendly. -Thank you read more

Super welcoming and friendly staff members. Dr Lee was very quick and gave you options rather than choosing the easiest option for himself. Everything was great and very fast. read more

Very Pleased with my dental appointment with Dr. Lee and his staff, they were all friendly, efficient, professional and thorough! Dr Lee is a graduate from Loma Linda Universary, CA which is an excellent College that puts out some of the best Doctors and Dentist anyone could ask for. Thank you to Dr. Lee and staff for accepting me as a new patient! read more

I have been impatient of Dr Lee for a few years now. Starting with Josie who listens to what she needs are is both compassionate and efficient as she will schedule you quickly. Following with Christy or one of the hygienists. Who will evaluate you again there's no nonsense in between. You won't be sitting there when they say they'll be right back that's exactly what they mean. Dr Lee will then finish the procedure looking at x-rays speaking to the hygienist. Dr Lee is the ultimate professional. I had a cavity on my last visit so he had to numb me using the needle which I always dread. Yet I hardly feel it then he comes back in and finishes the procedure. From the time I arrived at the office to when I left was maybe 20-25 minutes. It's so important to me not to be left waiting in the lobby and then left in a room unattended for another 20-30 minutes as this has often happened to me and other dentistry. Never has it happened with Dr Lee's office. If I have to come back they'll let me know and schedule an appointment in the very near future. And the results are always outstanding. Thank you Dr Lee and staff. read more

Well dr. Lee did fine work on my teeth, however the receptionists are rude and arrogant. I work at nite don't get up til noon So appointment s always 2 pm or later . Somehow appoint got scheduled 8:30 am and I show up at 1:50 . The receptionist tells me I miss at 8:30 . I tried to explain to her as I did above that wouldn't have made appt . Anytime n mornings . She couldn't except that messed up and want to argue I left . read more

Recently I had a disappointing appointment with them regarding Cleaning teeth. I called them, the front desk said they can check it out. So I went. They are very efficient which is good, but however, they are not very honest about what they can offer to customer. They took the image of my teeth, and doctor walked in looked at around about couple minutes, and said the teeth is good, and he left. The assistant started to polish in my teeth which is I thought it was cleaning. Until I came back home and realized that wasn't the service I needed for. And they even didn't asking me if I want polish instead of REAL cleaning. It was a very unpleasant experience. read more

So... the one star is for the nice office staff .... It all goes south from there... I had the hardest time trying to find a dentist in the area that accepted Delta dental - I called around and came across Dr. Lee. For my first visit, I apparently came in a day before I was supposed to for a cleaning. The nice person at the front desk advised me they could still fit me in even though it was a day early. I advised them I was new to the area so they took a couple of x-rays. The hygienist took a quick look at my teeth and said "your teeth are very clean.", which I thought was odd. Then Dr. Lee came in - No hello, just opened up and looked around for about a minute and then left..... The hygienist then proceeded to put fluoride on my teeth and then said " we are done!" I am 58 years old and have NEVER been in a dentist chair for less than 30 minutes for a "cleaning" . I've written three different letters to Delta dental advising them of this visit and asked for them to cancel it as I had to go somewhere else for a real cleaning that involves scraping as a normal dentist/hygienist would have done. Delta denied my request and I had to pay out of pocket for the REAL cleaning. I see some people that love this office - I don't know if I caught them on an off day or not but hopefully this does not happen to anyone else as this should be done properly to prevent any issues. Delta dental will also be hearing from me - I've been with them since I was on my parents plan and never sent a single complaint to them until now. I will never go back here due to the time and money I have wasted! read more

I had an extraction done on a very swollen and painful tooth. Dr. Lee was so rough and rude! I have had other teeth extracted and have been numbed many more times that that and have never cried in pain, but I did this time. The Dr. mocked me saying "I am not even pulling yet" and asked if I was so nervous that I needed go somewhere else. When I said I was just in pain he stared at me with a look like "give me a break". Then he rammed the needle in three more times and immediately yanked the tooth, dropped his tools and walked out! Totally ridiculous and incredibly unprofessional and unkind! read more

I had three bad experiences back to back with this office. In all cases, the staff were super nice and attentive, but the overall service was terrible. 1. I went in for a filling. The injections were forcefully administered, and the doctor had no bedside manner. He came in, did his work fast and forcefully, and left. He accidentally dropped a metal burr down the back of my throat and couldn't find it. They were searching the floor as I was trying to choke the thing up and alert them it was in my throat. When I finally pushed it high enough so that he could see it, the doctor grabbed it from my mouth and moved on as if nothing happened. No acknowledgment or apology. 2. I went in the following week for a crown. I checked in 15 minutes early and sat there for nearly an hour with no word from anyone. I finally got up to ask what the delay was and they said they lost my charts. I was out of time and had to reschedule. 3. I came in the third time and had been misinformed as to the procedure. I was told they'd minimally numb my gumline (no injections) for the next procedure since the tooth was already dead from a root canal. When I arrived they said it was a pretty involved procedure and they needed to numb the upper quadrant of my mouth and would be installing a post and etc. They said this should have been explained to me. It wasn't. So I cancelled. In cancelling I complained about these series of issues and no one took responsibility. I was actually corrected -- told I should have googled the procedure to understand what they're doing. I told them googling wasn't the issue. They had specifically misinformed me. Again, I was corrected and told I should just google it. I cancelled all future services. Again, the staff are nice. But there seems to be little ownership or accountability in regards to errors or omissions. The work is high quality (I assume), but done without compassion (in my experience). It would have taken very little to alleviate my concerns. But vocalizing my difficulties led to awkard dismissiveness rather than solutions. read more

I finally found MY Dentist! What a wonderful office. No thrills or frills, just excellent service in a clean, comfortable environment. Dr.Lee and his staff were AWESOME. They are down to earth, no shaming or trying to up sell. Very comfortable friendly vibe. I just can't say enough about my experience. I highly recommend! read more

i just went to get fillings done and they told me that i wasnt getting numb enough. they were rude on the phone also they told me to go somewhere else to get my teeth done after they drilled into one of my teeth. dont go to this dentist. read more

I had seen Dr. Lee a number of times and gotten a decent amount of work done after my previous dentist retired a few years back and I had gone without dental insurance for a while. The girls in the office are very nice but to me, it seemed as if Dr. Lee had no respect for others. I had warned everybody during my first appointment that I have a family history of numbing not working and he still accused me of taking medication or drinking caffeine before the visit, even though I mentioned multiple times the family history. I had a root canal and several fillings done by Dr. Lee, including one that was entirely cosmetic and unnecessary which I did not authorize before it was completed. The tooth which my root canal was done on had a temporary filling in for over 6 months before a permanent filling was put in which caused it to crack down the middle. Also, after each normal filling, parts of my teeth broke off only a few days later. It did not cause me any pain and was mostly just cosmetic so I did not bother to have it fixed, it was too much of a hassle to make another appointment for the care I was not happy with. He mentioned that they would be writing out a referral to an oral surgeon to have my wisdom teeth extracted, yet it has been 2 years of waiting and calling but no follow-up. Then I called the office where the referral was supposedly made and they said it was never received. I will not be going back, especially since that unauthorized cosmetic filling I mentioned earlier has begun to discolor and is not flushed with the natural part of my teeth at all. It is larger and it is obvious that bacteria has been getting under it but there is nothing I can do at this point other than try not to smile. read more

I had my appointment today with Dr. Lee. He is a good dentist once you actually get into the back. I had an appointment at 1 and didn't get into a room until 2. After that I didn't leave until 4. If you don't have a lot of time to wait around don't go to him but if you want quality dentistry that is efficient go here. The dental assistants were great with helping calm my fears and anxiety about dentists. My only complaints about this place are the time it takes and the receptionist was less than polite. Not only was she rude to me but she was rude to people on the phone. It may have been just a bad day for her but she shouldn't take it out on people.

See all

Very fast and efficient, had a root canal done and it was a better experience than other offices where I only had a filling. The dental assistant was also very caring and made sure to keep me as comfortable as possible. read more

Short, sweet and to the point. I always appreciate Dr Lee's quick work and the friendliness of the whole office.

Went here for a dental cleaning. Was the fastest and most bizarre cleaning I've ever had. After the cleaning, you could see strings coming out of my teeth from whatever weird grit they used. It freaked me out. It didn't go away for weeks. I've never actually had the grit from a cleaning do that to my teeth. I wouldn't go here again unless you want your enamel "cleaned" off read more

David Lee is the worst dentist I ever been to. I took my daughter there 3 times every time we went they x-rayed her and told us different information about where her cavities are and how many she had. He told her that 4 of her teeth were so bad they would need to be pulled. We then went to another dentist for a second opinion they did one x-ray and were able to fill the cavities in all her teeth and none were pulled. read more

Seriously can't say enough good things about them! The staff is so friendly and helpful! I had an emergency situation where my work schedule was crazy and my insurance was soon to run out all the while I just moved to Oregon but only had California coverage, the staff here worked so quickly and helpfully to get what I needed done ASAP! They went out of their way to look out for things that needed to be delivered to finish my work and called me as soon as they came in making it possible for me to get all my work done before my insurance ran out. So so grateful to dr.lee and his amazing staff! Seriously saved my smile! read more

Dr. Lee was professional and fast. He doesn't make small talk, but he is courteous as are his staff members. All were friendly and helpful. Best of all, my treatments were painless. I'll continue using Dr. Lee for all my dental needs. read more

Lee David Dds, Family Dentistry - General Dentistry Near Me - Redding, California

This guy literally worked on 3 patients at the same time, came into my room to start step 1, then the next room and the next. Then back to me to ask what 1 of 3 or 4 things I wanted done that day. Then to the next customer and the next one. Then he came back to me to do the painkiller shot, then the next customer and the next one. Then he ran back to my room to start the cavity work then ran to the next room and the next room. It felt like a game show where you see which dentist can work the fastest except I felt like a piece of hamburger meat on the assembly line at In-N-Out Burger. He ground into one of my silver fillings not telling me it had mercury in it which went down my throat. I have had terrible brain fog issues which started to develop ever since then. Get a S.M.A.R.T Certified dentist if you have silver fillings, they know how to work with them because ALL silver fillings contain mercury in them. Terrible experience, don't walk, run from this business! read more

I went to see Dr Lee DDS for the first time today. I had the most wonderful experience (yes, this appointment was so very pleasant)!! I made it a point to ask for all their names so I can give credit where credit is due. First I was greeted by Josie who had a lovely smile. Then Janelle took me to the room and got me squared away; she was sweet. Dr. Lee came in and examined my x-rays and took the time to explain things to me. He was so nice. Diana did my cleaning. Diana was so much fun and so easy to talk with. I highly recommend this Dentist and his staff to take care of all your dental needs. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Deborah Deras read more

Very friendly staff. I really liked that the dentist didn't try and have full conversations when your mouth is full.

David Lee is so efficient and fast. I have had bad experiences with other places, and whenever I see David Lee, he always gets what I need done. it is such a relief to finally get my teeth taken care of. his dental assistants are so thorough with me, and explain everything that is going to be done. - Shannon R. read more

This was my first major dental work done here in Redding. Like a lot of people here, I didn't have dental insurance. So, I shopped around for different dentists here and there, and I found David Lee's dental practice. They were very friendly over the phone, and I was able to get a quote (their prices were very reasonable in comparison to most of all the other dental offices I called: I'll say most, because I didn't call every single dentist). There was a little wait time, but thats kinda expected at a dentist office. That's not what surprised me though. I went in for a a root canal procedure on a molar (back chewing tooth). I have had root canals done before on other teeth, and I was expecting 3-4 visits to the dentists. (Now, that is tough with a fulltime job). David got it done in one visit! One visit! I've never heard of a root canal be done in one visit, especially on a molar. He had an x-ray machine hooked up and he was constantly monitoring the progress of the root canal with 3-4 x rays, and it was done. Very professional and efficient. I will definitely go back if I need any other kind of dental work. Triple thumbs up! read more

I am a new patient with Dr. Lee and I can not compliment him and his staff enough!!! I have only been in twice ...the first time I had an extraction and today I had a root canal. Can I just tell you there was absolutely ZERO, no pain at all with both procedures, and they were so quick! He is just unbelievable. His staff is so caring, Josie & all of the Assistants really made me feel comfortable and secure. Not only is Dr. Lee amazing at his profession but it was such a nice feeling to go to the dentist and not have any apprehension whatsoever. 5 stars all the way for Dr Lee and his staff!! !! read more

Professional and good people but had an apointment at 10 but didn't get in till 11. For what was only supposed to be a basic exam took 2 hours. read more

Dr. Lee is Great. He is to the point and very professional. Josie is always a delight, very caring and always friendly. Janelle is so funny, she made my day!

A wonderful experience from initial exam to permanent crown in place. The ladies in the office are friendly and professional. The office is clean and hygienic. Dr. Lee really knows his stuff. Don't expect small talk.. He asks questions then gets the job done. I would recommend him to any adult! read more

Friendly and fast. Very professional. As far as medi cal dentists I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I had to drive from 3 counties over in order to get my cavities filled, because I live in a rural area and there aren't many options . The office and dentist were very accommodating and were even able to get all 3 done in one appointment so that I did not have to drive the 3 hour drive back again. I'm very happy! read more

They had me in and out of there no problem. Very professional and straight to the point, very calming atmosphere!

I just moved here from Southern California. Josie runs the front office with so much commitment and compassion! She's awesome! I want to gives kudos to the other girls who assisted Dr. Lee, I didn't get their names, however they were very professional and very nice. Dr. Lee is a very skilled dentist and friendly as well. The atmosphere is very calming and clean. I highly recommend Dr. Lee and his entire staff. read more

Took my mom here because she has blue shield. Not a quality dentist and my mother got an infection in her gums after his work. I had to go back to demand for some antibiotics for her. Will never go back there again. Horrible. read more

Nice clean office, wonderful staff and really great service, my whole family and I have used Dr. Lee for many years and we have been consistently pleased with his work and the way he treats his his patients and his staff. You will be pleased too! read more

I was very impressed with the latest equipment that Dr. Lee has. I normally have a problem getting x-rays done because of my gag reflex, but Dr. Lee has a great new gadget that makes it a whole lot easier.I enjoyed my whole experience, the people are great the service was great and I will definitely be back. read more

I called on Monday thinking it would be months before I could get in but was able to get in the next day. I needed three teeth to be looked at and it was recommended that I have one pulled and two capped. He pulled my tooth out in 5 minutes with no pain and scheduled my next visit in two weeks. They all made my visit so easy on my work schedule. I would highly recommend Dr. Lee David. read more

There are too many bad reviews about Dr. Lee that he doesn't deserve, in my opinion. I went in for a new patient exam & yes, there was a wait till I got into the back, but no wait at all between getting into a back room & seeing Dr. Lee himself. As others have said, he's not particularly talkative, keeping conversation to what is necessary. So if you're looking for a doctor who will make a bunch of small talk that has no bearing on the reason for you being there, go elsewhere. But he does good work--my teeth are EXTREMELY sensitive to the touch of metal, & most dentists & hygienists pretty much ignore that. For that reason I've procrastinated about going to the dentist for as long as possible. But Dr. Lee was so careful--I didn't know I could get a teeth cleaning & exam that doesn't include a bunch of rough handling & pain, so thanks to the dr & staff! Front office receptionist was very nice, went out of her way to help a few people. read more
