Report
My mom originally went here for an Invisalign consultation and a clean up. The experience with the dentist was excellent, and she felt really comfortable with him. The issue is with the receptionists. It has been 2 months of waiting and following up with them for the results of the assessment. Every call they say that theyll talk to the dentist and let her know next steps. This last time, we waited 3 days before calling back, where they said my mom would need to come back in. Each time weve called the receptionists have seemed flustered and as if they forgot. Were very disappointed considering

I (like many of us) get nervous going to the dentist. I hadn't seen a dentist in 5 years, and recently moved home to Vancouver. My mom had a friend that went here and had good things to say, and wow am I glad I went. I had 2 teeth that I was almost certain were as good as gone - and so for the past 2 years I've stopped letting people take my picture and have covered my mouth when I laugh (my teeth looked horrible) Dr Tang was super gentle, very thorough, incredibly kind - and I have never felt that relaxed during a visit to the dentist before. She gave me back something I thought I'd never have

Iv been going to this practice since i was a kid, so 20 years or so. The staff are very knowledgeable and are always so warm and extremely helpful. As someone who has anxiety about dentists i can say that they are very gentle and communicate with you at every step, which puts your mind at ease. They are the best, I couldn't imagine going to any other dental office.
