When I first went to Yu Family Dentistry a few years ago for a routine cleaning and exam I would…read morehave highly recommended them. Since being back numerous times I cannot say that anymore. The office is very new and clean -- impressive for any doctor's office. The staff was meh. My cleaning was ok; I've had better. Former chairside dental assistant here by the way. The hygienist was meh. The doctor was rushed. In fact everyone was They have so many procedure rooms all filled with patients and not many assistants, hygienists and as far as I know just the one dentist. Look, I'm not looking to tell anyone my life story, but where was my exam? I didn't get one any of the times I went -- charting, checking gums, etc. No dental assistant to take notations. But my insurance sure as heck got billed for the exams The dentist would always say ok, see you in 6 months, get up off his stool, throw his gloves away and leave the room. The first two times it happened I assumed things were done differently now since I was a dental assistant -- we manually charted and didn't have digital xrays. So then I wisened up and starting asking about my exam. He'd poke around my mouth with his gloved fingers but that's about it. Didn't even bother to look at xrays -- they insisted I needed a full series every 6 months (keep in mind I'm in my mid 40s and only have 2 cavities that were so small I didn't even need numbing). No root canals, no crowns. But if my insurance is billed for xrays just because it can be at least look at them man. I also have a problem with so many xrays. But anyway Let's talk about the condescending hygienists who tell me how awful my teeth are. Really?? If you've read this far you'd know that was baloney. Scare tactics maybe? I floss after almost every meal and brush 2-3 times a day. No buildup that I can see Now the front office staff and people who answer phones. So rude. They usually just say hello and I have to ask if I've reached the dental office, and I do notice they cater to a certain crowd. I'm not sure how to say this in a way that doesn't sound disrespectful, but being the only native English speaker in the waiting room I have always definitely noticed such a drastic change in the staff when communicating with people whose first language may not be English. I'm very glad that everyone can have access to the healthcare they need, but it's just a weird change I was actually supposed to have an appointment today for a cleaning and exam today but had to call because my car is still in the shop. When I asked when the next followup appointment was the gentleman said next year and was going to leave it at that. Being that it's the middle of December next year isn't too far off but I had to push for that follow up date "next year". Since my new appointment is about a month away I think I will cancel and seek out a new dentist so I don't have to feel like crap and insulted when I go in for a simple cleaning and "exam" Now I see why they got such poor reviews on Yelp (but kudos online?).

They're also one of the only dentist around me that takes my dental insurance so my options were limited from the start but if I had read the reviews I probably would've chosen to go elsewhere... My appointment was for 11am, I spent very close to 4 hours in the office. The staff was super friendly but a bit unprofessional with regard to caring about a patients time. Dr Yang was very nice and constantly asked me if I was okay during the procedure but she also stopped not once but twice to go work on two other patients. I don't understand why it wouldn't make sense to finish with one patient and then move on to the next. All the back and forth was extremely frustrating. I still have two more procedures scheduled with this office, I hope they will go better than today. Another plus for this office is they are open later than most other dentists.

They are also very nice over the phone and willing to accommodates. -Knowledgeable staff Both the dentist and the hygienist seemed to know what they were talking about. They also gave me their full attention and took time to listen to my concerns. Negatives -High Pressure Sales Pitches For me personally, when my tooth hurts and I've come to the dentist, I don't want to hear how braces will make my smile look better. In addition, when I say no thanks, I don't want a false compliment about how pretty my eyes look and how much straighter teeth will bring them out. Keep in mind, I had braces when I was in middle school, my teeth are not crooked, they could be a bit straighter I suppose but no one other than a person up in my face would notice. It seemed very unprofessional. -Suggesting Unnecessary treatment When discussing a treatment plan,I really felt like they were less concerned by what I needed and more concerned by how much money they could make off me. When I asked about cost of things they didn't give concrete answers and instead spoke about how "happy I'd be in the long run." That's great and all, but answer my questions.

Unfortunately, I do not have to spend a fraction to what Dr. Perry has charged, for just two months without pain in my mouth and 2 years worth of service. Unbelievable!

This is the second time I visited him since two different general dentists (one five years ago and the other now). The first was because of a broken tooth but Dr. Sanchez recommended extraction rather than root canal, which I had done by another dentist when I got back to Florida. This second time was because my FL dentist wanted me to see an endodontist due due to extreme pain when eating something cold- love that Tillamook Ice Cream! Having had such a good first experience with Dr. Sanchez, I waited until I returned to LI to see Dr. Sanchez. He examined my x-rays and the tooth that my dentist had capped 6 weeks ago and also the adjoining teeth. He doubted that the capped one needed a root canal and after testing the adjoining teeth determined with reasonable certainty that one of them was the culprit due to a suspected hairline fracture and receding gumline which creates the opportunity for sensitivity. So this is the second time I was sent to him for possible root canal and the second time he advised against it. His opinion the first time turned out to be the correct course and I have no doubt that this one will be the same. I cannot recommend him enough for his friendliness, completely understandable diagnosis and plan for further wait and see. I have no doubt because of my experience with him and the other reviews that if I end up needing RC, he is the man! But the way the pain is diminishing I think he is correct and that the sensitivity will diminish over time. Do not hesitate to see him and his clean, modern office with all the latest hi tech equipment. He will only do the root canal if he is certain it is needed.

Dr. Bear himself was very reassuring and made sure I was as comfortable as possible during the whole procedure.
