I almost never write Yelp reviews but since I found Dr. Wong using Yelp I feel compelled to comment on a very positive experience. My appointment began on time (to the minute - unheard of) and was finished within an hour. Dr. Wong did the cleaning himself and walked me through what he was doing throughout the cleaning and exam. Very thorough cleaning. Dr. Wong was very professional and informative. The office was spotless and the staff was polite, professional and efficient. Also liked the music... Highly recommend this dentist. read more

I have been a patient of Dr Wong for over 15 yrs, I noticed recently that he has been very short tempered and snappy with me. I have gone through many dental emergencies and he facilitated me on short notice which I appreciated. I am however disappointed in his demeanor. He is very brash and can actually insult you if you are paying attention. My last encounter with him was one of embarasement. He spoke with me as if I was bothering him, and was quite irritated with my request for assistance: in front of his staff. Knowledgable sure I will give him that, Uncouth: he gets an A+. I guess my patronage is no longer important to him after supporting his practice for so long. read more

Dr Steve is awesome. I don't like seeing him but when I have to, I know that he is highly experienced, knowledgeable and kind, does top notch work and that all will go smoothly! highly recommended read more

The best, super reliable. Always on time, great care. Nice offices too. My wife goes now too.

Just came back from an appt a few days ago. Updating my review to state that I am still a happy patient of Dr Wong's 10 years later. He still provides excellent care, at what I consider a fair price, and is extremely punctual. I still highly recommend! read more

Before we get started (with the tale of what makes Dr. Wong so great)-- lemme tell you about the Great Dentist Cabal which I suspect exists around Columbus Circle. I fell prey to the Columbus Circle Cdentist Conspiracy about ten years ago when I went in for a routine check up and the dentist I was seeing tried to convince me I had many cavities and that I should start paying out of pocket for a third yearly check up. And then he tried to upsell me on cosmetic dentistry, referring me to another dentist for tooth beautification or whatever (that's why I think it's a cabal-- they're in league with one another!). I asked my coworker for another recommendation and my coworker practically did a spit-take, choking on her water as she breathlessly said "GO SEE DR. WONG." I said "well I'm concerned because the cabal already took my insurance money for X-rays" and she said "Don't worry-- Dr. Wong won't fleece you." How right she was! Dr. Wong didn't fleece me nohow. And, reader, get this: I DIDN'T HAVE ANY CAVITIES IN THE FIRST PLACE! Dr. Wong saved me from The Tolumbus Tircle Tooth Treachery! I had been lied to but Dr. Wong both didn't charge me for xrays but also saved me from 4 unnecessary fillings. He tells the truth in a world full of liars! This was a decade ago and, since this time, I have referred everyone in my life to Dr. Wong. The appointments start on time. He's super direct. It's all news you can use! He's reliable and no-nonsense. He's just the very best in the biz! I can't believe it took me so long to write this review. Dr. Wong would never let a necessary task lapse for so long. He's on top of everything. I hope to one day be as detailed, disciplined, and reliable as Dr. Wong. read more

I think any dentist that gets a 5 star rating should also get a medal. Let's start with how professional the staff is: very. They email you all the paperwork for first-timers ahead of time so you don't have to go early and sit there filling it all out in the waiting room and there are automated reminders of the appointments if you choose to avail yourself of them. The office is spotless and looks brand new. But most importantly, Dr. Wong is efficient, professional, thorough and about as gentle as a dentist can be. He gives you a lot of information about how your teeth are doing. I've been three times now, and my husband now goes too. read more

I was definitely a bit nervous to try a new dentist but I had an absolutely great experience. From the dentist, to the staff, to the office; everything was perfect. As soon as I walked in I noticed how super clean, neat and well kept the office was and the service, was great! No wait time at all. I brought in two other people with me and we were in and out in no time. We were all very pleased. Dr. Wong was professional, friendly and thorough and on top of things. The dentist knows his stuff and I am glad I made this appointment. Dr. Wong was excellent. I highly highly recommend! read more

Found this place on Yelp so I feel compelled to write this very positive review about my experience. Called in the morning and the pleasant receptionist was able to find and confirm my insurance over the phone (just needed my SSN) and get me an appointment that day in just a few hours time. It's right around the corner from me (across the street from BookCourt bookstore) and I spent no time waiting before being given a chair and the professional efficient treatment. Wang was all business and very skilled and explained every step of the process as it was happening and you just knew you were in good hands. I walked in for a quick fix and left a customer for life (as long as I'm in the area :) ). HIGHLY suggested. read more

Always on time and quick -- never any wait time which I really appreciate. His location is convenient and his staff is professional. I also love being able to schedule and confirm appointments online. read more

Dr. Wong has been my dentist for many years now, and after many bad experiences with other dentists earlier in life, he has restored my faith in dentistry. Dr. Wong is kind, thorough, gentle and very skilled at what he does. He is fairly priced when the insurance coverage runs out, and his staff is professional and efficient. His office is terrific! read more

The address is actually 158Court Street - half a block away from Trader Joe's. The staff and doctor were very friendly and efficient. The doctor was terrific and explained everything, patiently answering any questions. Unlike other dentists that I've been too, he didn't seem hurried at all and he did a nice job. read more

I agree to everything about Dr. Wong: prompt, thorough, knowledgable, communicative, etc...I actually enjoyed going for my cleaning. HOWEVER... as a regular client who came to rely on my 6 month email reminders, I actually had to call THEM to find out that after 10+ yrs of loyalty, my partner and I were literally DROPPED with w/o notice, a "thank you" or possible referral. He also did the exact same thing to my partner's son's family and children. He drops those who's insurance, for whatever reason, he can no longer accept. That is understandable, but after having been a his patient for almost 10 yrs and not inform you that he must drop you as a patient is just inexcusable. It seems cowardly, unprofessional and disrespectful. He knows that is not a proper procedure when dealing with your clients. He's an intelligent man, but has lost our respect. Even an EMAIL from one of his assistants, would have been better than leaving us wondering why we hadn't heard anything. We had to call his office thinking that maybe we were overlooked for the regular email and phone reminders. Thank goodness neither of us had a dental emergency, only to find we'd been dropped! Unacceptable. I had to re-think my initial review because the ordeal left me angry and insulted. However, in hindsight, I have to say that he was a wonderful dentist. I would just advise his current patients to call THEM periodically to make sure you're still on his books! Thanks Dr. Wong and all the best in your continued practice. :-/ read more

Dr. Wong is the best dentist I have ever had, and I've had many. He is smart, knowledgeable, honest, spends time to make sure you get the best information and treatment, and he works with you to honor your wishes. He is respectful and he has never, ever caused me even a little discomfort, never mind pain. I have never had this experience with a dentist before. Because all my previous dentists were either brutal or occasionally hit a nerve, I assume it is really hard to perform procedures and not cause discomfort. I think that Dr. Wong perfects his technique and tries really hard. He is also modest and relates to his clients as an equal, not as a world class dentist, which is what I truly believe he is. He always gives me a cool gift for coming (like a pen/flashlight/scissors/keychain-in-one tool or a mini autoclaving box for disinfecting just about anything during the COVID pandemic). His services are a great value. After seeing him bi-annually for a few years, my teeth and gums stopped deteriorating. And he is the only dentist I ever had who didn't try to take advantage with fees. I've had dentists who admitted (jokingly but there was truth in the joke) that they sent their kids to ivy league colleges by fleecing people. Dr. Wong is a serious, honest, respectable dentist, and I am truly grateful for him. read more

Just had a cleaning with Doctor Wong. Pretty much echoing what everyone else said on here. I'm someone who has a busy schedule and like being as punctual as possible. He was ready to see me at my appointed time on the dot. Crazy! The cleaning was very thorough and he gave me a great overview of my overall teeth health and any potential future needs. He also prescribed a future course of action to avoid future problems. I walked away confident my teeth were thoroughly cleaned and I also learned a bit more about my teeth, more so than any dentist before. Will definitely be going here again! read more

The positive words written thus far on Yelp about Dr. Wong are true - to an extent. Dr. Wong is punctual beyond belief, communicative while he works on your teeth, thorough as a dentist, and does not push for unnecessary services. But he also lacks warmth and can seem flustered. To be truthful, I liked going to Dr. Wong (and I did for a few years), though other people I know did not - his coolness rubbed them the wrong way. Therefore I was only somewhat surprised when, a few weeks ago, I called his office to schedule an appointment and learned that he had decided to not accept our insurance anymore. He had not considered notifying us of this decision in advance an important thing to do. Not so professional, and for sure a disappointment and an inconvenience. read more

Dr. Wong has been my dentist for 10 years now, because he's super thorough, amazingly available (he's even seen my husband on Memorial Day!), always on time, and not only doesn't push unnecessary procedures, he once gave me a tooth-colored filling and didn't charge me extra even though my insurance would have covered only the gray kind. You don't have to call the office, because there are automated reminders and you can conduct all your correspondence by email. You will get the same lecture every single visit about how often to floss, chewing sugarless gum after meals, etc. (in fact, I think he should just record himself doing it because it's exactly the same every single time). But that's a small price to pay for the level of care you get. read more

Thorough, detailed, professional exam, assessment, cleaning, recommendations, and information. Very impressed with level of knowledge and expertise. Prompt appointment, excellent customer service from staff, organized efficient patient processing (email sent to me prior to appointment with welcome letter and patient history questionnaire). He even showed me an informational video about dental hygiene and then reviewed my X-rays in detail. Best dental experience! read more

Got to agree with folks here and give Dr. Wong some much-deserved respect. I think just about everyone in my life goes to him -- from my BF to my boss -- all are pleased with his care. Some folks have mentioned that he's a bit cool, but there's a dry humor in some of his remarks. I have crazy teeth that look good on the outside, but are really a challenge. He's really done great work over the years replacing old fillings and attending to new ones. His staff is great and they do most of their work via email, which is very 21st Century! Thanks, Dr. Wong. read more

Horrible experiences, in line with other feedback detailed below. He threatened to drop my insurance because I was 10 minutes late. His office environment is tense and unpleasant. read more

Dr. Wong's office cannot be bothered to help long-time patients. I've been going to Dr. Wong for 6 years, and recently changed my employer. Although I now have two layers of insurance, including a PPO in which Dr. Wong participates, Dr. Wong's office asked me to pay upfront and seek reimbursement from my plan because he doesn't participate in one of my plans. Seriously, Dr Wong? Can't be bothered to keep a long-time patient and just bill the insurance plan that you participate in? Business must be booming. I checked with other highly-rated dentists in the neighborhood, and they have no problem billing my insurance provider. If you're looking for a one-off dental visit and don't mind paying cash, then Dr. Wong's your man. But if you want a family dentist who actually cares about his patients, then go elsewhere. read more

The man is an artist. He's been there for me for emergencies and regular cleanings.

Are you kidding me with 5 stars? This guy has the ego of a rock star. After being a patient for 2 years and having an emergency DURING office hours, we were told this was "not a good day" for Dr. Wong. Stay away, he does not care about his patients. read more

I don't know where to start. He has a waiting room but there's no need to wait ever. I walk in through the office doors and into the chair and the doctor gets to work immediately . He's very gentle yet thorough. My teeth have never been so white. Best cleaning I've ever had. This dude is truly an artist. He may not be the most personable guy but he's punctual and gifted . He's a an artist! read more

It's all true. Dr. Wong is the best: thorough, efficient and polite. I've been coming here for about 5 years and not once has my appointment started even a minute late. Amazing. read more

Everything that has been said by other patients is true. I have been seeing Dr.Wong for a few years and found that for the first time in my life I actually visit my dentist every six month. It has become routine. He always sees me on time. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable. Someone else mentioned honest and I must agree. He is honest and never looks to do unnecessary expensive procedures. His manner is very matter-of-fact and that suits me fine. I'm in and out... always with zero cavities detected. Also, I like the little gift he gives me on my way out... maybe that's his way of saying thanks for coming... two enthusiastic thumbs up for my semi-annual visits to the dentist. read more

I am usually a one and done type of gal when it comes to dentists. I will go back to dr. Wong. Everyone in the office was very nice. Everyone, including dr. Wong, explained everything to me before it was done. Dr Wong did my cleaning himself, which was very rare. He was so gentle. He then went over each X-ray with me in detail. I really appreciated that I didn't feel like I was Ina factory. I am very happy with dr. Wong. read more

My mouth is a mess--I have had lots of dental work done-Dr. Steve Wong is hands down THE BEST. I went right in-his office is clean and his employees friendly. He had a very gentle touch and first grade equipment. I HIGHLY reccommend him! read more

The office and staff are very organized and professional, but Dr.Wong was very harsh cleaning our teeth, it was like he was drilling pavement. He sits at a strange angle which hurt both of our necks, and we had many scratches on our gums which feel inflamed now. We are not going back to this dentist! read more

It's hard to find an honest dentist out there, and I had a fear of dentists for a long time because of painful past experiences. There are so many scammers who'll tell you that you have a million cavities and it'll cost an arm and a leg to fill them all. Dr. Wong is not that guy. He's so straightforward, honest, only does what's absolutely necessary, and what's more, he's got a really gentle touch when cleaning--he's thorough, but takes care not to hurt you. My fear of dentists is gone--I don't need to pop any beta-blockers before I visit him. Even though I moved farther away from him, I'm going to keep going. Thanks Dr. Wong!! read more

I had a great experience here. Everyone who worked at the office was very friendly, helpful and super efficient - no wait time at all! Dr. Wong was very informative, explaining everything he was doing during the appointment. I highly recommend! read more

Excellent dentist, he recognized the need for me to see a gum specialist after the fisrt encounter.I have been to many dentist s before him and they just overlooed some of my dental needs.Thumbs ub read more

Dr. Wong is an outstanding dentist. He gave me a very thorough cleaning and more info about my teeth than I ever knew I wanted but it was great to learn. I walked in 5 minutes early for my appointment and got taken right away. Thank you Dr. Wong! read more

first appt. came in 10 minutes late. had a good cleaning. upon checking out, i was given an ultimatum that if any members of my family (three altogether) were late again he would drop our insurance...this part was confusing: apparently he went out of network anyway without notifying us and was planning to completely stop accepting our insurance altogether in the beginning of next year. very unpleasant attitude with an exception of front desk and his assistant. read more
