    Patient Review 1:

    Dr. Wong is THE BEST dentist in the world! His overall patient concern is empathetic and sensitive. I felt at ease right away. Having to have 4 cavities filled after 38 years of no cavities, I was a little nervous about the procedure. I was most concerned about getting shots in my mouth. Fortunately, I didn't see, hear, or feel any needles. The whole procedure was absolutely painless, and I have a low pain threshold!

    His office staff was also very kind, friendly, and welcoming. Also, there wasn't a long wait. The whole office makes one feel like a special client , rather than a number.

    Dr. Wong is my dentist for life and I highly recommend him to everyone who wants a dentist that is kind, gentle, and sensitive to a patients concerns, and who also wants the best and most beautiful smile possible.

    About Hygienist: I think the Hygienist's name is Michelle, but , I could be wrong. Anyhow, she was wonderful, gentle, and reassuring by letting me know ahead of time what to expect. Really impressive was how much whiter and brighter my teeth looked after she was finished cleaning them. She even got the ugly coffee stains off of the backs of my teeth. Dr. Wong's standards of professionalism are set at the highest point and it shows in his office, staff and himself.

    The moment I entered Dr. Wong's office I felt the relaxing atmosphere...I was greeted with calming music and scented candles. I almost forgot this was a dental office. The staff was very friendly and helpful getting the intial paperwork out of the way.

    When I met with Dr. Wong, he took the time to review my history and make recommendations as to the best course of action. I never felt he was rushing. Once we began the treatment, he went above and beyond to make sure that I felt ZERO pain and that I was totally comfortable - including a heated neck pillow, a blanket and the movie of my choice during the procedure!

    The results are spectacular!

    I am happy to refer my friends and family to Dr Wong for all their dental needs.

    I have been a patient of Dr. Wong since he opened his dental office in San Mateo. Words can not express the favorable experience I have had over the years with him and his staff. They are all very knowledgeable, caring, compasionate and friendly individuals, always wearing a smile. They will do everything possible to make your visit comfortable, even provide a warm neck pillow for your relaxation. Their office is gorgeous with the most recent dental equipment and other attractive appointments including pictures, acquariams, etc.

    . I am most pleased to highly recommend Dr. Wong and his professional staff to anyone seeking dental assistance.

    Patient Review 6:

    Dr. Wong is a fantastic dentist because he is personable, direct and a pleasure to deal with. Despite his thriving practice, he is always calm, approachable  and generous with his beautiful smile.

    The Doctor does excellent cosmetic work and I don't exaggerate when I say his dentistry is virtually pain-free! Cosmetically, the Dr. has a lovely aesthetic: understated, natural and elegant.

    The office is a first-class operation w/ a great atmosphere. That pleasing aesthetic sensibility again figures in soothing d←cor: Nature, fountains, art, pleasing colors, sounds and smells  not to mention the smiling faces of his staff who are always willing to help  all contribute to a wonderful experience that seems more spa-like than dental.

    Dr. Wong is kind, bright, and competent, and he in turn hires kind, bright and competent people. They all work harmoniously together and treat the patients immensely well. I always feel like Im in good hands & can relax. Ironically, after a visit with the dentist, my day always takes a turn for the better. I highly recommend Dr. Wongs practice. Together, the team encapsulates excellence on multiple levels.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Wong: Years.

    I could not be happier with the quality of Dr. Wong's work. He did a wonderful job with my veneers. They are absolutely beautiful, but still natural looking. He is very conscientious and will make sure you are satisfied with the results. I could not be more satisfied. Thanks Dr. Wong!

    Patient Review 9:

    Let's face it - no one looks forward to going to the dentist. But we know good dental care is a necessity and Dr. Wong is the best. My previous dentist referred me to Dr. Wong and I have not been disappointed. I am speaking as someone who regularly visits Dr. Wong for general dentistry services. The entire office staff is fabulous (Michelle & Jennifer), but I would like to single-out his wonderful hygienist Alysse. I always look forward to seeing and chatting with her during our quarterly visits.

    About Hygienist: As I mentioned in my general review, Alysse is fabulous. She does a great job and - yes - my teeth always feel wonderful after she's done. She has a great personality and I always look forward to seeing and chatting with her during my visits.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Wong: 6 years.

    Dr. Wong is an amazing dentist and I wouldn't want to let anyone else work on my teeth, cause I know he's the best. He always greets you with a smile and makes you feel comfortable during whatever procedure you're having done. The office staff and hygienists are also very warn, welcoming, professional. It is always a relaxing experience to go to Dr. Wong's office. Especially, because you get to relax with a warm shoulder pillow during your treatment!!! If you're scared of the dentist, go see Dr. Wong and you won't be scared anymore.

    Patient Review 12:

    Dr. Wong is a very personable person who is caring and patient. I feel very confident that he has my concerns ahead of his and is most understanding and kind. There are some things in each person's life that can be very upsetting and not having a dentist that you can trust with regards to pain and skill is a great stress. For me, this is one stress I do not have. There is another equally important issue with regards to who my dentist is. I have gum disease along with diabetes. This is not a good thing! Fortunately, I have the best hygenist on the face of the earth. Elyse is a person who knows what she is doing. She really cares for me and I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that her skill makes the best of a very serious challenge that I have. Over all, Dr. Wong's office is like a pair of special shoes, like my favorite pew in church and a place where I can take my teeth and mouth and feel at home.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Wong: AT least 6 years.

    Patient Review 13:

    When I started searching for a cosmetic dentist, I knew I needed an Artist in addition for him to be an excellent doctor.

    I was very picky because I know I deserve the best .

    What a lucky person I was to find Doctor Wong, because he *is* an Artist in what he does, and he is a Perfectionist as well.

    He and his staff made me feel very easy from the very first minute I walked into his office, the office is a spa like, and what the most important, the doctor truly knows what he is doing, he listens to your ideas and concerns and he offers advises on how to make your smile look the most striking and natural at the same time.

    I was very skeptical about potential results of my new smile, and the results exceeded all my expectations.

    I am a new woman now with a 'Wow" smile! :)

    Thank you, Doctor!

    The overall friendliness of Dr. Wong and his staff help to put at ease the most nervous patients, such as my husband. Their proffessionalism and regard for his patients is constantly shown by educating, informing them of their conditions and avoiding unnecessary and invasive procedures whenever possible. The staff is also extremely helpful dealing with insurance issues and trying to accommodate schedules for appointments.

    I truly appreciate being treated by a dentist and staff that listens to my dental concerns and take all precautionary meassures necessary to treat a patient with sensitivity issues.

    After many attempts, over many years, you were able to solve problems unique to me and provide me with a beautiful smile. I receive compliments all the time from family, friends, doctors, even strangers.

    There were no surprises along the way. What you said you would do, you did, in a highly professional manner with much attention to detail.

    You have an excellent, caring staff that provided much comfort and assurance along the way that after all was done I would have a beautiful smile. And I do.

    Thank you again. I appreciate your perfectionism.

    I would and have recommended Dr. Wong to friends and family without hesitation. He is caring, professional and a perfectionist. I am complimented constantly about my smile and have never experienced this much confidence with the way my teeth look. His staff is outstanding - best hygienists ever. This is the highest recommendation possible, considering until meeting Dr. Wong, I would dread all dental appointments.

    Dear Dr. Wong,

    I am writing to let you know that I absolutely love my new Lumineers. I want to thank you for all of your patience and professionalism during the process. You have been very accommodating to my needs and the results are beautiful!

    I also want to thank your wonderful staff for being so warm and receptive. I felt more like a friend than a patient when I came to your office.

    I would recommend your work to anyone considering having Lumineers.

    Sincerely,

    Patricia Figlioli

    Dr. Wong and his staff are superb. My wife and I have been going to him for years, and I've recommended him to numerous friends and co-workers. He is always up on the latest techniques and technologies, so I know that I'm getting the best care possible. But what really sets his practice apart is the personal care and attention. Not only are Dr. Wong and his staff sincerely attentive towards your comfort and health, but they are all genuinely nice people. It's actually a pleasure visiting them every few months.
