i've been coming here since i was around 9, and everyone who has helped me along the way of my teeth journey had made it a superb experience. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone at any age for a pleasant, professional, yet enjoyable experience.

Dr. Sunwoo and the staff are a fun group, who are easy to relate and talk to. Dr. Sunwoo, especially, is good to talk to about k-pop and BTS. Usually going to a dentist or orthodontist, people feel nervous and afraid. But the easy going personalities of the staff take the fear away. On top of being fun, the staff is hard-working and gets their work done. I definitely recommend South Bay Orthodontics.

Update to my previous review. This office has now taken care of 5 of our family members teeth, we are so proud of our smile, 2 are still in braces and their teeth are beautiful as well. Thank you to everyone for being professional and supportive through tough personal times in our family. A place that feels like home..

The ambiance of the office is great, with a sea-life theme that makes the environment welcoming for kids. They also have games in the waiting room, which helped keep children entertained while waiting. Dr. Navarro was amazing with my daughter.

Everything was carried out exactly as it had been explained to us. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and they kept us informed about the progress of the treatment the entire time.

This place should be shut down!! I wasn't old enough to talk about my experience when it was…read morehappening, but I am reminded of how much trauma he put me through every time I look in the mirror. I saw Dr. Wadden young, I think he put me in my first bar at 7. I had braces for years, they gave me a herbst appliance for 9 months when I was in 5th grade which has left horrible circle bits outlined in my cheeks, and then I had rubber bands so crazy I couldn't open my mouth. I was in 7th grade when I had finally gotten them off, I thought the pain was done. I had moved, and my braces were off I never had to see him again!! (Little did I know he sent a little "fiberotomy" over to my new dentist that cut the fibers around my gums so they wouldn't move back, that dentist had never done one before and said they were abnormal to see done, but my parents waved ahead and that was so entirely painful) That all and all doesn't sound the most horrible, but what I left out was that he also used to hold appointments to lazer my gums without any numbing. I had so many times where they scheduled me in the mornings, alone, before other patients, because I would scream from being in so much pain. Every appointment was painful, truly and utterly painful. My gums were bloody and red after every appointment, sometimes just from molar braces brackets being pushed over and over onto the teeth, then being told to just rinse with salt and water. I was horrified of this man. When I thought I was done I went into another orthodontics office where I moved to get a retainer and the lady CRIED when she saw my mouth. Looking at my history, they were horrified. Back in braces I went because some of my teeth were way up high and the other side was low, for being in braces my whole life and so much pain I shouldn't have had a messed up mouth!!!!! At that time, my parents called Wadden's Orthodontic Office frusterated, and the office settled with them and paid them a grand which went back to braces and said "it's the best they could do". Me personally, between the trauma of those appointments, leading to bad results, it's sparked an entire lifelong battle both in my mouth and mentally, that I will always have to deal with. Do not take your kids here, they can't speak up for themselves. Do not let them take advantage of you, your wallet, or your kid.

Very hard to reschedule and nobody pick up the phone at their office. Doctor not really nice, she's…read morenice before you not sign the agreement documents, after you sign agreement, she treat you differently. Not really friendly and gentle to patient.

If you're looking for a trustworthy orthodontist, look no further!!…read more Getting orthodontic work isn't just getting straight teeth, it's a lifelong relationship. Dr. Phan has great attention to detail and will take the time out to educate you. You will never feel rushed during your treatment. Best of all, he is genuine and truly cares for his patients. I feel so extremely lucky I found Dr. Phan and chose him to be my orthodontic provider. My experience here has been more than amazing. I previously had a bad experience with another orthodontist, so I was afraid when I saw many patients during the consultation. But no worries, this office is super time efficient! Dr. Phan, Joel, Jessica, Sandra, and Janet go out of their way to accommodate to their patients to make them comfortable. I'm forever grateful for them. I will continue to recommend family and friends to Dr. Phan. Consider me a patient for life

Be careful with these guys. They don't own up to their mistakes at all. They promised my wife that…read moreour dual insurance will work to cover our daughter's braces. We verbally asked them are they sure multiple times and they assured us multiple times that everything is good. After our braces were done, they then tell us oh the our secondary insurance won't pay if there's already another insurance that covers it. Not only that, they used the lower amount from the first insurance instead of the higher amount from the second one. So under their assurances, they made us pay for TWO insurances premium, used the lower of the two insurances, then made us pay for their screw up. What did they do to help us after the mess and screw up? Nothing. So sad too bad. They didn't offer to make us whole or give us a discount for the mess. Do not trust these guys because even when they screw up, they will do nothing to help you. You will end up holding the bag. We ended up paying double what we were told we'd pay, not including the additional insurance premium on the second worthless insurance. This is our second kid to get braces here and this is how they treat their customers.

Good orthodontist but is often hampered by an unreliable front office and inconsistent customer…read moreservice. The person in charge of admin for patient billing, coordination and scheduling is Yvonne. Lately patients have had to put up with missed reminders, delays in scheduling appointments, and unexplained absences from the front desk that leave the customers hanging. On multiple occasions, I've arrived for appointments only to find no one at the front desk for extended periods. Follow-up calls about billing questions have gone unreturned, and I've had to call back several times to get simple issues resolved. When Yvonne is present and engaged, things run more smoothly, but the inconsistency makes it difficult to plan around appointments or trust that administrative matters will be handled properly. Dr. Chou himself is skilled and professional--the clinical care is not the issue here. However, the front office dysfunction significantly impacts the overall patient experience. For an orthodontic practice where patients need regular visits over months or years, reliable administrative support is essential. I hope management addresses these operational issues, as they're undermining what could otherwise be an excellent practice.

After over 4 years, my braces finally came off today! What an emotional journey and milestone…read more Thank you for putting up with me all these years and being so patient with me. This took over the double the time originally predicted. Quite ironically, my appointment today was also the one I was latest to. I hope you get better patients than me in the future! But seriously though, I'm grateful for people like Dr. Chou and Yvonne. Aside from just helping me with braces, they've been a constant for me during the pandemic. I'll still be seeing them with my retainers but it's bittersweet to close out this chapter in my life. Hopefully this is the third AND last time I'll need braces!
