Of course it happens on a Saturday and not many dental offices are open. And the ones that were, refused to help. Seriously. No one. We had the crown, we even had the glue. We just couldn't get the angle right (upper molar) to get it in place. We figured it would take a dentist less than five minutes to get it back in place. But no one was willing. Except for Dr. Igawa. Everyone in his office was extremely kind and very helpful. They saved our vacation since the sensitivity made eating and drinking very difficult. And we wouldn't be going home for another week! If we lived here, Dr. Igawa would be our dentist. He's a thorough and very kind doctor and has an outstanding and friendly staff!

After asking around, I was referred to Dr. Leong. I wish I had known about him sooner. He and his staff are kind, patient, non-judgmental and always happy to see you. I am not a person who is afraid of the dentist but I know that some people are. They are very gentle and will tell you as things are happening. I have tori mandibularis (bones growing under the tongue and the top of my mouth), which makes x-rays painful. They were such pros in doing the x-rays with the bitewings that there was no discomfort or pain. They accept most insurance and copayments are minimal.

He did prescribe the antibiotics to eliminate my infection before my first actual dental care visit.

The staff, as I witnessed, were very conscientious with disinfecting and taking Covid-19 precautions. Dr. Leong is now my permanent dentist. He is efficient, gentle, and caring of my pain threshold. I am a finicky shopper or products and services. Dr. Leong gets two thumbs up and I highly recommend him.

All of the front office staff, dental assistants and hygienists are warm and friendly. Doctor is very clear, asks if you have questions/concerns. I've always felt comfortable and welcome by everyone. A few tips though-- be punctual as they are strict with that. Getting on the schedule can be tough at first, it will likely take more than 6 months. But once you are seen initially, you can generally schedule cleanings every 6 months.

I am trying to schedule an appointment for my kids on a day that works for my husband and I busy schedule. You have a Receptionist (Esther) whom does not take into consideration of changes and bypasses Rescheduling my kids to keep them on your scheduke for their Dental Treatment. My issue has NOT been resolved and your receptionist (Esther) likes to Disrespect and bypass the task that she was supposed to do. Esther has horrible customer service while providing care and respect to certain patients time, especially when she was advised of the changes of when we are available. Horrible experience while scheduling my appointment because Per Esther- I will inform my Dental Provider and see if he is willing to do the procedure on a saturday." That was not done and should not have taken Esther all day to provide a logical answer. She did not do what was mentioned to me at 07:45am HST yesterday 09/02/2025. You have a Disrespectful receptionist handling your scheduling of appointments that initially Refused to Reschedule after being told about changes to our schedule during the week. Esther needs to work on figuring out a solution that is best for Bother Provider/Patient. She did not do neither and was Quick to just cancel the appointment. I still have not been transferred to the Manager. Is this the type of Customer Service I have to experience when I schedule an appointment for my kids Dental Treatment?

The only problem with this practice is that they seem to have multiple patients at the same time for the same dentist, so the dentists are running back and forth while the assistants do most of the work.

I made an appointment to have my teeth cleaned as well as my four year old daughters. The day of…read morethe appointment they told me I was only going to have an oral exam and that I would need to come back another day for the cleaning. After the oral exam the dentist began to tell me about the importance of flossing and to help illustrate the point he pulled out yellowed dry erase boards with dental pictures and diagrams. These dry erase boards were from 1978, no lie!!! When my four year old had her x-rays taken they only took images of her front teeth and not her molars. She moved during the x-ray and the hygienist said, "She moved, but I'm not going to retake them." That day, my daughter actually got the teeth cleaned, if you call a polishing a cleaning. I asked if they were going to actually clean her teeth and they looked at me funny and said "we did". When I think of a cleaning, I expect tarter and plaque removal, flossing in addition to polishing, fluoride rinse and x-rays of the full mouth. I was very disappointed and underwhelmed with this dentist. Do not recommend to anyone.
