Have you ever experienced fate, destiny, luck and blessing all rolled in one? It is as if all the stars aligned and there it is, the perfect moment - that life-changing moment that makes you wonder sometimes whether it is real or not; if you are even worthy of it. Ah yes, serendipity. I found Smile More Dental Clinic by pure serendipity. It was a warm summer afternoon in 2011 when my sister and I happen to visit Smile More Dental Clinic for the first time. The clinic used to be situated in a commercial building in Sta. Cruz, Manila. It has a very home-y vibe with classic style couch, wooden floors, everything earth tone and relaxing music softly playing - the kind that slows down your breathing and will lull you to sleep. We were lovingly greeted by Ate Rose. She asked us to fill out forms for our records, patiently answered all our queries and shortly after, introduced us to THE BEST DENTIST THERE IS - DOC RICHARD LIAO. Doc Richard Liao is a gift from the Almighty. His work is a masterpiece. He has a vision and he gives more than 100% when he attends to his patients. He is very thorough and spends time with you in explaining and educating what will work best for you and your budget dental-wise. From my own personal experience, he helped me boost my confidence when he skillfully enhanced my facial features from being under bite with crooked upper teeth, to having this nice set of pearls with the help of dental braces. This and many more. Dental prophylaxis, dental filling, my Mom's minor surgery- which Doc Liao just coined as "difficult tooth extraction" because he understands my finances, too. Oh, the years of Doc Richard Liao's hardwork for me and my family. I am in constant awe to his dedication and skills. His love for his patients and his passion transcends with every stroke of his hands. I always look forward to my dental appointments with Smile More. I always refer Doc Liao and the entire Smile More Dental Clinic team. I keep sharing their wonderful service and positive treatment to all their patients and how I pray that this dental clinic and Doc Richard Liao will always be here to stay forever and that more people will get to experience and share this beautiful dental experience I have been blessed with. This dental team has always been a family to me. Through all life's ups and downs, the small things and the big things, they are with me. I am sharing my experience with you with such great happiness in my heart. I have nothing but absolute love, gratitude and respect to Doc Richard Liao and the entire SMILE MORE DENTAL CLINIC family. โค๏ธ
