Customer Reviews
I went in for a deep cleaning today - another
positive experience at this office. Today I met Dr. Ro who painlessly got me numb and prepared me for Rachel who did the cleaning.
I’m usually uncomfortable and fidgety in the chair but not today! I did not even feel the injections after Lucy had prepped my gums with gel. Being properly anesthetized is key and Dr. Ro was terrific.
I leave feeling so much better and with a good report on my oral health.
I look forward to rebuilding my smile with this wonderful team who take so much time to ensure that a patient is comfortable.
Thank you Dr. Ro and team!
Modern, well-equipped facility and a genuinely friendly staff. Dr. Ro was especially patient and caring, which made the whole appointment comfortable and stress-free. Would absolutely recommend.
We highly recommend Dr. Ro! She saved a tooth other dentists wanted to extract, which is how I found her from a recommended list for Google employees. My husband and I have had crowns, implants, night guards, and other procedures done with Dr. Ro over the years. Because she has an outstanding in-house technician, appliances fit beautifully. She and her team seem to enjoy their work. They certainly take pride in delivering the best care. On a referral to a specialist, they commented that Dr. Ro is ‘beyond excellent.’
Dr. Emily Ro is truly one of a kind. I've never met a dentist like her. For over 20 years, I suffered from pain in my canine tooth. I visited many dental offices and had countless X-rays taken, but was always told there was nothing wrong. But when Dr. Ro looked at the X-ray, it took her less than a minute to identify the real issue, and it was a biting problem. After a quick adjustment, I felt relief!
Not only is she incredibly skilled, but she also has such a warm and caring heart, which is rare to find these days. I’ve been recovering from breast cancer surgery and struggling with vertigo, and she was so thoughtful and gentle with me. Even the cleaning (scaling), which I usually find uncomfortable, was the most pleasant experience I’ve ever had.
Her office is far from where I live, but it was absolutely worth the trip. I can’t recommend her enough! She is a truly exceptional dentist.
I can’t adequately express how grateful I am for Dr. Kan, Dr. Ro, and the entire staff at the office! I’ve seen over 15 dentists in my life but the people here have really raised the caliber beyond what I thought possible. I had a complicated case (decade old bridge, permanent retainers, a chipped tooth, problematic implant, etc) and Dr. Kan came up with a meticulous treatment plan, all the while never making me feel pressured into doing anything I didn’t want.
She is extremely talented in her craft. People have told me that the temporary bridge she made for me is a lot better than some permanent ones they’ve seen. This is just one moment that highlights the genuine care and precision she applies to her work. For years I had gotten used to an uncomfortable bite and shrugged it off. Dr. Kan noticed this and went above and beyond to fix it. I don’t think biting down has ever felt this natural and easy in my life.
This kindness and passion is also evident in Dr. Ro and everyone else at the office. Logan at the front desk is easily one of the nicest and most helpful people you’ll ever encounter. They made long visits and long procedures feel easy. A million thank yous to everyone at the office for being so awesome
