Dr. Wu is an outstanding doctor. She is very knowledgeable, listens to the patients concerns, and answers questions in a manner that is not complicated to understand. She comes up with good preliminary treatment plans and the office does a great job breaking down the cost for the patient.

I really enjoy this clinic, everyone is caring and treats the patient very well. Dr Wu is very informative and kind. Everyone treats me very well. The one thing that could be improved is the clarity of the cost of the dental treatment, I had a little confusion but it was cleared up. Overall great office, thank you!

Came to dentist as I had pulsating feeling in my gums. My primary dentist referred me to this dentist to check for any gum disease. I had to ask questions of the dentist to prompt her about what her thoughts were about my condition. Really gave no answers as to why I have the pulsating feeling in my gums and why my front teeth have slight movement. Disappointed in this exam especially as to how long it took me to get in and see this dentist.

I would appreciate getting an email which lays out the potential options for the one tooth in question. while I think I remember the options stated, it would be better if I had something to refer back to for future reference.

I spent most of my time with the hygienist, who was great. The doctor appeared briefly and talked mostly with him, looking at the images of my teeth on the screen, before briefly telling me that I should return for root planing. She was very courteous but seemed to assume I knew what this would involve. I do, because I've had this treatment before, but if I didn't, I would have been left wondering.
