Had an infected nerve in my molar. Soooo painful. The first dentist ( at a different practice) squeezed me in to identify that I had the infection, and prescribed antibiotics. The wanted $6000 to fix 2 teeth, and I was scheduled to be fixed 8 days later. In soooo much pain. My husband asked me to get a 2nd opinion. I saw Dr Kim. He did a temporary fix, stopped the horrendous pain and said only one tooth was an emergency so I have to pay less than half of what was originally quoted AND Im not in constant pain for the next 8 days. The receptionist was so kind and even phoned the next morning to see how I was. Very impressed.

I canโ€™t thank these guys enough! I called for an emergency appointment and they were able to see me within a few hours. The girls at reception (Iโ€™m so sorry I canโ€™t remember your names!) were so kind and Dr Milena was fantastic. Iโ€™ll definitely be back for my general dental care. I felt so looked after and they were so kind to me.

I used to go here, it was fine for a while. But I stopped going one day after receiving a horrible treatment from Dr Kim. During the procedure he was very rude to both me and the female dental assistant. I was in pain and in tears (from my jaw issue) and he became impatient and began comparing me to a child. When the procedure finished, I was too much in shock to report it and just went home. It actually put me off from going to (any) dentist for a while. This happened over a year ago, but I recently got a phone call from the receptionist about coming back, so it reminded me of this experience. I've found another dentist somewhere else with much better bedside manner (more empathetic & patient) so I will not be coming back here.

I have been attending this practice for years because I am so impressed with the professional service, extensive new technology used and the personal care I am receiving. ALL of my dental issues have been treated expertly and promptly. Dr Milena is one of the most impressive dentists who has ever treated me (in some 60 years of dental work) and the results are most pleasing.
