Updated Review 9/17/26: I cannot say enough positive things about Dr. Dr. Melnick and the entire team at Dr.Wongs Practice. I recently had to undergo a serious gum surgery, and naturally, I was nervous about the procedure and the recovery. From the very beginning, Dr. Melnick made me feel comfortable, informed, and confident that I was in good hands. What really stood out to me was his professionalism, knowledge, patience, and attention to detail. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of my questions, and made sure I understood what to expect throughout the process. His calm and caring approach made a stressful situation feel so much easier. The procedure itself went smoothly, and I truly appreciated how attentive he was to my comfort and well-being. You can tell that Dr. Melnick genuinely cares about his patients and takes pride in the quality of his work. The entire staff is also welcoming, professional, and kind, which made the experience even better. I'm extremely grateful for the care I received and would absolutely recommend Dr. Melnick and Dr. Wongs Practice to anyone looking for a dentist who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and trustworthy. If you're nervous about dental treatment or need more complex gum care, I highly recommend giving this office a visit. You'll be treated with professionalism and genuine care from start to finish! ______________________________________________ Previous Review 6 Months Ago: I came to Ms Suzie Wongs Dental Practice due to a serious dental emergency last week. The office experience was clean and pleasant- the staff were kind and attentive. I have to say this woman is AMAZING with her knowledge, detail and knowledge in Dental Practice. I felt cared for, attended to & respected as not just a potential client but as a Human Being in distress. Needless to say, I've officially transitioned to Ms Suzie as my Primary Care Dentist hands down! read more

I have been living in Ca for years but haven't found the best dentist until Dr. Suzie Wong was referred by my dental surgeon. She's thorough, knowledgeable and really takes the time to explain recommended dental care and procedures, a professional, I can say she's a master of her craft. Other than that, seemed like she's already part of the family and being my family's dentist we know we're in good hands. Thank you Dr. Wong for keeping my teeth in good shape. I absolutely love my new smile. Thank you also to her assistants Yolly and Helene, all pleasant experiences to be in her office. read more

After looking for a good dentist for so long, I'm so glad to finally feel confident in my smile again -- all thanks to Dr. Wong! I had a great experience with her. She is kind, gentle, and attentive to every detail throughout my visit. She took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I felt comfortable the entire time. You can truly tell she cares about her patients and takes pride in her work. I highly recommend her! read more

I've been seeing Suzie for about 10 years. She's the best. She's thorough & detail orientated. She also has a good network of other dental resources for work outside of her scope that she can refer you too. The best thing I like is that she will check your insurance for you ahead of time & let you know what is covered or not. This is rare with any medical facility. They tend to bill first then take care of any charges they charged you after the fact which can be a huge headache. Her staff is great too. 100% friendly & professional environment. read more

Dr. Wong takes great care of my teeth. She is friendly, caring and very professional. I have been to over half a dozen different dentists since I moved to California 14 years ago and she best dentist that I have ever been to. I know that I am receiving the best service every time that I go in for my regular cleaning and checkups. She always does a great job cleaning my teeth and gives me good advice on how to take care of my teeth. read more

I've been going to Dr. Wong since I got my braces off a long time ago. She has been seeing my parents since she before she took over the practice from a previous dentist. She always takes the time to get to know her patients and every time I go in we can catch up on what has been going on over the past 6 months since I saw her last. When my daughters were little they came with me and when it was time for my oldest (now 18) to start seeing the dentist, Dr. Wong was the one to start seeing her. She was comfortable with her since she pretty much came to all my appointments. The office staff is great. Dr. Wong is a great doctor and I would highly recommend her read more

My front two teeth started thinning in the middle due to all the acidic food i ate. I really didn't want a cap or veneers but thought those were my only two options. I came to dr. Wong and immediately she told me there was a third solution called Bonding. I have had them for about a week now and they look amazing! I was SO nervous these being my front two teeth but Dr. Wong took care of me and thoroughly explained all my options and the pros&cons of each. I am super grateful to her for the amazing job she did. Thank you Yolanda and Helen for your help as well! read more

I had a wonderful experience at this office! Suzie and her staff are all very professional, the office is cleaned, and Dr. Wong is highly experienced.

I highly recommend you book an appointment with her for all of your dental needs. Happy Patient Toni Watson read more

Only been going to Dr. Suzie for a few years, but I love going to her and will probably take my toddler there when she needs to start going to the dentist! Dr. Suzie and her staff are attentive, thorough, and very knowledgeable. They never skimp on anything to save time, they make sure to take the proper time to do everything you need. Dr. Suzie also has a great way of explaining things so that you can understand what's going on and what she's recommending. They are a combination of old school practices using a paper calendar they pencil in appointments for, and then using different dental practices that will ensure the best equipment for their patient's care. So far I've gotten dental cleanings, a crown and mouthguard made here. The dental cleanings are done using the old school metal instruments, but I've also gotten sandblasting using fine salt particles to remove some very tough stains in my teeth. The mouthguard was created with everything possible in mind of how I would grind and move my teeth at night. Covering every base possible so I don't end up with ground down teeth by 50! I don't even remember that I have a crown in place at all! That's the best thing I can say about that dental work. Other than the practical part of dentistry, Dr. Suzie feels like another aunt of mine. Which makes it more fun to visit! All the fun of an aunt, none of the chiding! read more

I have been going to Dr Wongs office for less than a year and I wish I went sooner! A little bit about me... I am such a baby when it comes to pain and been avoiding the dentist. I had two cracked teeth that turned into infections. I found her on yelp and she took me in that weekend for an emergency. I've been to her several times now! She is so kind and patient with me. I really have a difficult mouth She always checks up on me and tells me exactly what she is about to do. You can tell she takes her business very seriously. She does really meticulous work! Her whole staff is also very kind and sweet. They are taking a lot of precautions to not spread covid. There are a lot of sanitation stations in the office, so you dont have to worry! They are located in the same plaza as Kansha Creamery and 7 Leaves. read more

Dr. Suzie Wong is one extraordinaire person/dentist! She's so meticulous that you can't believe you'll find a dentist as reliable and efficient as her. My case is so complicated or shall I say unique but she gave me her personalized care to make me feel excited to come always. Am definitely recommending her to everyone! read more

not sure why my previous review was taken down, so im reposting it, Dr Wong is an one of a kind dentist who really cares about her patients. She sees you as a person and provides personalized amazing care. And her team is very friendly and extremely helpful. I didn't have a dentist in the area but was able to get a last-minute appointment. Dr Wong was not only very accommodating; she took care of everything. She Immediately referred me (and scheduled me for same day appointments) with the endodontist and the oral surgeon for an infected tooth. I appreciate her bedside manners, her attention to detail, and her diagnostician's eye. I do not wish a toothache to no one, but if you need a dental appointment, do not hesitate to come visit Dr Wong, read more

I finally found a dentist that is CARING & HONEST. Susie Wong DDS is very thorough explaining the problem going on with different teeth and explaining my options. She does not rush you into procedures and is caring about my health and age as to what is the best for me, besides the financial part. I feel so blessed to have her as my dentist. I would give her 10 stars in all around her staff and how professional she is. In the past 10 or more year I have visited and had work don by 4 different dentists and they all where there for the money and any work they did was not good or not needed. I feel very confident in Susie Wong DDS taking the best care of my teeth. read more

The first time I met Dr. Wong was in 2011. I was working in Gardena and randomly chose her office for my dental insurance. She did a couple fillings for me to fix a sensitivity issue. I moved around for work and eventually landed in Long Beach. I chose a PPO dental plan just so that I could go to her clinic. So, 7 years later I'm getting my teeth cleaned and filled by her again! I just really get along with her like no other dentist ever. She's an honest dentist and makes sound recommendations. If you enjoy traveling- she's got a lot of tips and stories. read more

Such a patient, kind, and honest dentist who genuinely cares about your well-being. I'm so grateful to have found Dr. Wong! My parents are both in their 60s and have been scared of going to the dentist. Both needing some extensive dental work, Dr. Wong has been extremely patient and caring with them. She took the time with each of them to explain what needs to be done - and really took good care of my parents. She makes you feel like you're in solid hands. Would highly recommend Dr. Wong! read more

Prior to Dr Wong, I hadn't had a good experience at the dentist but I went to her because someone highly recommended that I go to her. This was the first time I've ever felt comfortable with a dentist. Since going to her, I feel more confident in my smile and the extensive work she's done to help me have stronger teeth has made a great difference. Dr Wong also helped me realize what I was doing wrong and has also helped me with my teeth and gum hygiene. She is very nice, professional, and flexible. Dr. Wong is an amazing dentist! She goes above and beyond for her clients. read more

I don't remember the last time I experienced a Dentist who cares, listens, and pays as much attention as Dr. Wong. In a time where the healthcare system feels more like a fast food service "quantity over quality", Dr. Wong breaks that mold!! She sees you as a person and provides personalized amazing care. And her team is very friendly and extremely helpful. I didn't have a dentist in the area but was able to get a last-minute appointment. Dr Wong was not only very accommodating; she took care of everything. She Immediately referred me (and scheduled me for same day appointments) with the endodontist and the oral surgeon for an infected tooth.

Dr Suzie Wong is very knowledgeable, She is interested in me more than just a patient. She is very conscientious and persistent of caring her patient.

She will tell you what you need to know in plain language and in forthright manner to communicate the underlying to me.

I've been going to Dr. Wong for about 10 years now. She has helped me get on the healthy teeth path with her thorough and layman explanations of procedures and prevention. Other dentists may be able to provide this, but I return to Dr. Wong simply because she has gained my trust as a practitioner and she and her assistants are always friendly and personable. You can tell that she cares for her patients and always has their best dental interests in mind. She doesn't make recommendations unless they're absolutely needed. I would recommend her as a dentist to anyone. read more

I feel like I just found our family dentist with Dr Suzie Wong. My husband, my 11 year old and myself go to her. She is a very concentious dentist who is very upfront with what you need and what it would actually cost. I've been to a lot of dentist who looks at me because of my insurance coverage and how much I can pay...not Dr Suzie! She is very considerate and transparent on cost and treatment effectivity. Her staff is very friendly and her clinic is clean read more

LOVE this dentist, Dr. Suzie Wong! I initially wanted to find a dentist located closer to me, and found her through YELP. Thank you to past Yelpers who have posted about her. I too, wanted to share about my positive experience with her (and her staff). She is professional, personable, and knowledgeable. After just our first session, I felt like she has been my dentist for years and years. Things just felt comfortable and right. I plan to stay with Dr. Suzie Wong for the long haul - she is my dentist of choice. read more

Dr. Wong is fantastic! She explains everything thoroughly and has great "bedside" manner. You never feel rushed - she's in tune with your personal needs as a patient and does a great job! My whole family goes there now. I'm a dental scaredy-cat, but not anymore. Go see Dr. Wong! read more

I have been a very satisfied patient of Dr Wong's since 2008. And have proudly recommended her numerous times. Her staff are always pleasant. Forward any questions or concerns in timely manner. Anita Murakami read more

I have gone to Dr. Wong for many years; I currently reside in OC, and still make my appointments to see her. Dr. Wong and her staff are very professional and courteous; they take the time to get to know you, are patient and listen to your questions and concerns; Dr. Wong makes you the priority at every appointment, and she will give you options and work with you. Just today I was telling her about my husband's health conditions, and she immediately suggested two specialists to see after my husband and I consulted with several neurologists, urologists, and made multiple ER visits. Trust me when I say Dr. Wong is your go to dentist when it comes to your teeth because you won't get top notch/A++ service anywhere else. You won't regret it! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Wong for 15 years now since I was just out of college. At the time I was having a horrible time finding a dentist that I could trust. She was filling in for my parents dentist who had just passed away and I have been with her ever since. I even continued to see her when I lived in San Francisco for 4 years and I drive 45 minutes to see her as I have a very strong relationship with her and trust her completely. She has done all sorts of work on me from a root canal to many fillings and I always feel taken care of. She now even sees my wife and feels like a friend not just a Dentist. She takes an honest approach and doesn't do unnecessary procedures and doesn't rush you in and out like so many dentists often due. It's really quality over quantity for her. Her staff are also very nice and I always feel welcome there. If you are looking for a friendly, talented and honest Dentist than look no further. read more

If you are looking for a great dentist look no further ! I highly recommend Dr Wong for all your dental needs.
