    I came here to get a routine check-up and to get a cleaning done. Be aware that this office is huge and sits on the OTHER side and OVER a wall of another dentist office that I accidentally visited. The office staff is pretty nice and the place is clean, and very appealing. It doesn't even look like a dental office. The practice is ran by a dad and son that just graduated dental school. He has to be the youngest dentist that has ever worked on my teeth in my whole life (25?). I was truly thrown off and couldn't believe it, but he got the work done. Now I'm hoping he just didn't oversee or forget something haha. The average cleaning is about $77. I would highly recommend this location for your dental needs based on my experience with the staff and service.

    Hands down the best dentist's and office I have EVER been to! It was August 5th, a Sunday at 6pm mind you and my nephew dove into the shallow end of the pool breaking big chunks off his front two ADULT teeth. We were able to get ahold of Dr. Stephen Lee and Dr. Elan Lee and they told us to meet them at the office ASAP and they would be there shortly. Incredibly kind and so gracious to our family and even helped calm the nerves for my very nervous nephew. Not only did they go above and beyond the call of duty with their hospitality and kindness, but their dental work exceeded all of our expectations given the situation. Blown away at their family ran and operated dental practice...and that's just it, they made us feel like we were family. I highly recommend Stephen Lee,DDS to anyone looking to get the hands down best work and service out there. We will be going to them for all our dental needs. Thank you Dr. Stephen Lee and Dr. Elan Lee you guys rock!

    Yeah... GIVE GIVE GIVE, and get WHAT in return? Shabby treatment! Yuck! What a poser!

    Dr couldn't wait to get out of the room; didn't interact with me at all, just interacted with his assistant; he was pained when I asked for some more info - getting info was like pulling teeth, pun intended.. Again, he couldn't wait to get out of the room. I was soooooooo astonished by his avoidance behavior that I didn't get answers to my questions about different possibilities for fixing tooth, like implant or bridge! Egotistical Ash-pole. When I asked the office manager my dental questions after my exam, she said those are questions I should have asked the dentist. I told her I tried...(duh). In all fairness, I went in with high expectations of personal empathetic dental care based on their website. I often forget how easy it is for even doctors with good intentions to become insensitive because of the pressures put upon them by insurance companies, but I'll be looking for another dentist that puts his ethics above his finances.

    Dr Lee butchered my left eye cataract surgery and had zero explanation or remedy. Went elsewhere to find immediate relief. She was clueless.

We also need more anesthesia during surgeries thanks to our MC1R gene. I have woken up in the middle of surgeries which is never a good thing! I needed a deep cleaning of my gums as I have pockets and my gums have receded. Natalie, also a redhead understood my anxiety as I needed many shots of Novocain to complete this task. I have horrific past experiences from many years ago when dentists have drilled into my teeth to fill a cavity and refused to give me the numbing medication I needed. I sat in the chair and cried during the pain. Natalie was very patient with me. She took the time to make sure I was comfortable and numb throughout both cleanings. I am not going to lie..I needed MANY shots to complete this task and yes..they hurt. but she was understanding, very patient and a total sweetheart. Dr. Khansari.... please keep Natalie on staff until she retires! She is AMAZING at what she does! Compassionate, patient, understanding and calming.

I was referred to Dr. Khansari by my dentist, & it also helped that one of the office's dental hygienists was seeing him for the same thing because she gave a glowing recommendation. Dental work is never fun but when you get positive word of mouth reviews, it helps! The entire process- getting the tooth extracted, placing the new implant, switching out the implant for a bigger implant & the check ins in between took a few months & Dr. Khansari outlined everything for me during my first visit so I knew what to expect. The entire team was kind, organized, explained everything in detail, professional & most of all, handled my dental work with care & ensured I was tolerating everything okay!

    Long overdue review! Dr. Do is an incredibly knowledgeable periodontist who truly cares for his…read morepatients, is so detail oriented in his work, and will patiently take the time to answer patient questions (I had a lot!). I am not local so flew into town to get my teeth evaluated + my gums grafted.....he proved to totally be worth the effort as the level of care he provided truly is exceptional. I've gotten multiple gum grafts previously from three other periodontists. Dr. Do's work not only provided the most coverage, but it held up the best and he was able to gain a teeny bit of height!! My previous understanding is that it was impossible to gain and maintain increased gum height. It was a lengthy procedure as Dr. Do took on the challenge of performing the graft on the lingual side (challenging angle to see in the first place) and I had scar tissue that made it harder to graft. During this time, Dr. Do was laser focused, maintained communication so I was aware of what he was working on, and checked in through out to ensure I was not in pain or didn't need a break. I cannot recommend Dr. Do enough and only wish I had someone like him for all my other medical needs!

I had all uppers taken out about 5 months ago as over a long time, extensive bridgework was failing. My regular Dentist is fine for the 'normal stuff,' and he had recommended the Oral Surgeon who did removal. Afterwards, neither gave me much confidence in their expertise when my gums did not seem to be healing. Quite frankly, the whole process was way more invasive and slow healing than I anticipated. After research, I made an appointment with Dr. Ho....he emailed me necessary medical history type, was quite amenable when I screwed that up a bit. Appointment was very solid, both he and his assistant were great. They actually listened while I conveyed my 'story.' He did a very comprehensive exam, took a large # of photos and took a lot of time in explaining his findings. He also gave me some small 'cleaning utensil' type brushes to help in daily brushing. He said the whole process can take a year before the gums, jaw etc. are fully functional....and I was progressing nicely. I came away feeling like all my questions and worries were addressed...that was very important. Also, and equally important, he (and his assistant) were quite diligent, took time, and both seem like very nice people. Highest Recommendation, No Doubt.

It's a smaller office, but everything runs very efficiently, which was really impressive. I filled out the forms ahead of time, so there was almost no wait before being seen. One of the biggest advantages is that they have X-rays, CT, and 3D scanning all in-house, so you don't need to go elsewhere for additional imaging -- everything can be done in one place. The exam itself was very calm and straightforward, but thorough. He made sure to go over everything I needed to know without being overwhelming. And the highlight for me was definitely the cleaning. They removed years of buildup and stains, and my teeth even look noticeably brighter. The touch was very gentle, and I felt no discomfort at all. Honestly, it was the best cleaning I've ever had -- I was really impressed.

He has done amazing work on my teeth, especially when it comes to any surgical procedures I've needed. Dr. Cho is by far one of the best dentists in Scripps Poway.

From the front desk receptionist to the doctor himself, the entire team makes it a great place to go if you need a good dentist. I highly recommend Dr. Cho.

I've always had a real fear of going to the dentist, but Dr. Beck-Mayo and her staff completely changed that for me. They are incredibly attentive, gentle, and genuinely make you feel at ease. I've never experienced dental work where I didn't feel the numbing shots--Dr. Beck-Mayo is that skilled. I recently had oral surgery that I was honestly dreading, and it turned out to be one of the most painless and comforting experiences I've ever had. The level of care doesn't stop there, the follow-up has been just as impressive. From checking the healing process and removing stitches to clearly communicating next steps and scheduling, everything is handled with such thoughtfulness and professionalism. What really stands out is how much they truly care about their patients. They carefully document progress with photos and X-rays and keep my general dentist informed every step of the way. If you're looking for a periodontist in the San Diego area, I highly recommend Dr. Beck-Mayo.
