Dr David Jou is a professional. His team provides very good services. I am going to have 3 implants at the end of this August. The one thing I concern that he asked me to make full payment in advance even no implants has been performed. However I am stilol his patient. read more

I've been a longterm patient of Dr Jou's for many years, and honestly, I can't recommend this practice. There are many other better dentists out there, and I highly recommend looking for them before settling. Pros: it's easy. The receptionists answer the phone, they're nice, they take my shitty Delta Dental insurance, and it's super easy to book with them. Cons: they aren't actually going to care for your teeth, especially if something goes wrong. Their cleanings are super short and my teeth barely feel clean afterwards. Unsurprisingly, I developed my first cavity in years... only to have Dr. Jou absolutely butcher the filling. He left bits of filling in between my teeth and told me 'it would be fine,' and when I called back later that day, unable to floss my teeth anymore, he had to redrill the ENTIRE FILLING. I started crying when he told me; I literally couldn't believe it. I had to endure two fillings, that should have been one, and to top it off, he just filled the entire tooth so it's a big chunk of filling, rather than being rounded on the bottom and sculpted to my tooth. It still irritates me. He's never seemed particularly engaged or caring with his patients. He's been very dismissive of my concerns, both during the filling and before, when I had a sudden pain in my jaw... told me it was a 'woman thing' and I should just see a specialist. All the equipment is very old and they are often without dental hygienists (once, one left in the middle of the day and I had to come back another day because no one could polish my teeth). I was willing to put up with it until the botched filling, but that was the last straw. I switched to Fremont Hub Dentistry and the different is SHOCKING. They have all new state of the art equipment, were able to run so many more tests and preventative care for me (like a saliva test and oral cancer screening), and the dentist clearly care and explained everything to me. All for the same $5 co-pay. I'm so glad I switched. read more

Very hard to schedule an appointment and to even call during business hours (before their lunch hour) to cancel an appt. I left a few voicemails in the past and never receive a response back. Decided to go to another office read more

Great staff. Caring and attentive dentist. Haven't been here in a while due to insurance change but if you're in need of a dentist, consider this. Worth the try. read more

I was looking for a new dentist back in 2021 when I got on my company's own insurance. Dr. Jou was one that took my insurance and had good reviews! The front desk, assistants and dentist himself are efficient and actually good at what they do! My past dentist from since I was a child for the past 10 years have gone downhill where the dentist doesn't do the cleanings anymore; they only checked for cavities. Dr. Jou does the cleaning himself and assistants do the polishing. They actually go in deep on cleanings and my teeth feel cleaner after coming, which is the whole point! Everyone is always super friendly! I've only gotten my cleanings here for the past 2 years but I'm in an out within 35-40 minutes. Props to them for text reminders, given that appointments are 6 months apart I appreciate a text reminder over a phone call! I've even recommended my sister to come switch dentists to over to Dr. Jou. read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Jou for more than 3 years. Last year I had a crown on a broken tooth done by Dr. Jou. Last month, for whatever reason, the crown broke. In the past month, they removed the old crown and replaced it with a new one. While getting replacement crown took long time (3+ weeks) I was very surprised that I was not charged for the replacement. I know there is warranty for crowns and some dentists had given me warranty cards for 7 years but when I claimed it, there were always additional expenses. In this case, I applaud Dr. Jou for his professionalism and not trying to nickel and dime me. In fact, I asked how much I needed to pay for the crown and Kevin who manages the front desk said that no payment is necessary. I am shocked that they are honest, honor warranties without question and do excellent work. Kudos to you Dr. Jou! read more

Great staff and great care Dr. Jou is a amazing person. They all take the best care of you. Will definitely recommend my friends and family here. read more

I called to make an appointment, here's how the conversation went: - Front desk answers the phone. - I say hello and ask if they are taking new patients. - She answers "yes." - Awkward silence. - I ask if I can make an appointment. - She asks about insurance. - I tell her what I have. - She tells me I need to know if its a PPO or HMO. She will put me on hold beause she is helping someone in the office. - I tell her it is an HMO and just put their office as a provider online. - She says I don't show on up on their roster and to call back 9/1. - I ask if I call the ins company will that help? - She says she can't answer that question. - I thank her and say good bye. - She says "mmmhmm" and hungs up the phone. I won't be going to this office. As someone who worked in a medical office for 10 years, this is NOT how you treat patients. I understand she might be busy and overworked. But, I am not the one to take it out on. I was overly polite since I know how it is working at a medical office. On that note, I will respectfully not mention her name. read more

Very much an assembly-line type of operation. The cleaning is done very quickly, so one wonders how thorough it is. Also, you are required during the cleaning to twist your head in an extreme and uncomfortable way, for the entire process. Haven't experienced this during cleanings elsewhere; maybe it's because the room is so cramped. The facility itself is aged. If you're looking for state-of-the-art, this ain't it. On the plus side, the office is run efficiently, and you don't encounter the upselling found at other Delta Dental offices. read more

Customers beware! I've had several bad experiences with Dr. Jou. The crown he ordered for an implant was too large and rather than reorder the proper size he filed the adjoining tooth down then crammed the ill fitting crown into my mouth. Consequently I am not only unable to floss that area but he left a jagged point on the tooth he filed that causes discomfort. In addition he stabbed me in one cheek, burned the other cheek and caused a hemorrhage while cauterizing the gum around an implant. Stay safe, don't let this quack work on you. read more

Everyone went smoothly! They processed my insurance amd finished my cleaning and checkup efficiently.

This is the first time I visited Dr. Jou's office. It is a no- nonsense place and front the front desk to the dental technicians and Dr. Jou himself, they are direct to the point get the work done, tell you what to do.... No frail. To me, this is efficient and I can get out fast. read more

Update: I forgot to say that Kevin, the front desk manager ROCKS! He is so helpful and works hard!!!!!! read more

Like many, I too was very nervous to go to the dentist. I had not seen a dentist in years, and felt so embarrassed about my teeth but knew a visit was well overdue. I came across Dr Jou's dental office and could not be any happier. From the moment I walked in they made me feel welcome. Brittany the dental assistant was really sweet and super friendly. Dr Jou was very kind and continued to make sure I was comfortable through out my exam. Their whole team was extremely professional. Needless to say, I highly recommend this place and will be back! read more

Dr. Jou is the best dentist I have ever been to. His staff is super friendly and very organized. Very nice office on the inside. I needed a crown done and he had me in and out in about an hour. There was no pain or discomfort and the crown is a perfect fit. I feel very lucky that Dr. Jou was still accepting new patients. I give him my highest rating! read more

Dr Jou is an excellent dentist - and a rarity, a dentist with his own practice. He's not part of an impersonal large clinic with lots of changing personnel. He and his staff are excellent in the manner in which they conduct the exams, do x-rays, and cleanings. I had my checkup and so did my 86 year old mother. We were pleased by Dr Jou's treatment and professionalism. Plus he did not try to impose unnecessary charges or treatments, as did our last dentist. Great dentist! read more

Dr. Jou and staff are the best. He has been by dentist for over 20 years. Excellent bed side manners and the facility always clean and professional. I recommend him to everyone in the area. read more

I have been to about 10 different dentists in my life and several orthodontics. Dr. Jou in his team have been by far my favorite office to go to. He's fast, efficient and actually does a great job despite how fast he is. His team is great at scheduling and super nice every time I come in. I've done cleanings, cavity fillers and he's fixed my chipped crown for me. All beautifully done and well worth every penny. They tell you the education behind most procedures and the differences which I really appreciate. I hope he never leaves the Bay Area bc I'd be so sad. read more

I am so happy n satisfied with there service and treatment.Dr Jou , Shae .Kevin n Rosalinda they all are awesome Thank you so much everyone

I have a confession. Before visiting Dr. Jou it has been five years since my last dental visit. Mostly because when I had insurance I couldn't afford work off and when I didn't Have work I couldn't afford dental care. Dr. Jou was beyond friendly and caring. I needed a last minute cleaning before my flight back to Louisiana and he was able to fit me in and was patient and gentle as he broke the news that I had cavities! I felt cared for and never judged. The entire staff was warm, welcoming, and reassuring. I've always had anxiety around paperwork especially when it comes to insurance and his team made the process smooth and painless. My teeth feel polished and pristine and I know all the next steps to take in my dental health journey thanks to Dr. Jou and his colleagues! Thanks everyone! read more

A co-worker of mine referred me to this dental office so I decided to give it a try....and I am glad I did. I have been going to Dr. David Jou for over a year and so far I have no complaints. He's patient, careful and considerate about his patient's well being. His receptionist is very friendly and his dental assistant is super nice too. You can always ask questions and address your concerns. Dr Jou will give you professional answers and make sure you are comfortable with each treatment. I highly recommend this dental office. Over the last 5 years, I switched dentists/dental offices 3 times and I finally found one I am satisfied with. Five Stars! read more

Dr. David is a good doctor! He really save my toothache... The place is not luxury, but cozzy. It's also reflect to the reasonable price ^^ --not lke other dental group overcharge me .... Dr. David is professional and effective to fix my toothache at first time I went to see him; and in the process to cure my ach was not hurt at all, Also, his assistent was well-training and experienced, she made me felt relax. read more

I discovered this place through yelp and I must say i placed my dental care in safe hands. I have been here four times (including my dental check up and deep tissue cleaning) and my experience has been consistent and a good one. Dr David Jou is an excellent dental care professional. He was very gentle while performing his procedure, in fact i felt no pain at all each time I returned from a dental visit. This dentist is easy on your teeth as well as on your pocket. Staff is friendly and helpful especially Dr Jou's assistant. Special thanks to all of them for accommodating me for the deep tissue cleaning at a short notice. I would prefer sticking with this clinic for any future dental care needs. read more

This place is still running like clock-work. I went in for a routine check up, six months after my visit and nothing changed in terms of service. The staff is still courteous, the appointment was quick, and the procedure was painless and very comfortable. I'm thinking its probably worth while to take advantage of some of their other services. ..I've always wanted to get my teeth whitened.. read more

After having some not so pleasant past dental experiences, and the worst possible experience with western dental, my husband and I turned to yell. Here is where we discovered Dr. Jou, and we are so thankful we found him. He is very trustworthy, personal, and take the time to really get to know you. Western Dental told us we had 15 cavities between the two is and wanted to start work immediately, we didn't believe that and looked for a second opinion. Dr. Jou examined us and couldn't find a single cavity with either of us! From our first visit with him we were sold, he is the dentist for us. When he moved locations we moved with him. We've been going to him for years, and today he even gave our 9 month old a visual exam too. If you are looking for a dentist, look no further! I recommend everyone to go see him. read more

My husband and I've been going to Dr. Jou since he took over Dr. Shimamoto's practice several years ago. He has had the same assistant since he took over the practice. He is always on-time (I usually book in the morning). He is very personable and interested in you. Dr. has updated the equipment and is very focused on keeping up with the latest techniques. I have been very happy with my teeth cleaning and other services he has provided. I think he is always willing to go the extra mile. read more

Pros -Nice clerical staff -Friendly hygienist/assistant -The office has a welcoming feeling -Dr Jou is kind, patient, flexible -He will help any way he can, added bonus: good sense of humor Cons -After several years as his patient, none read more

After my last experience with the previous denitst, this dentist is refreshing on my wallet and my mouth. He gave me nothing but good news, he was efficient on time and was honest about what needed to be done. He did not even mention it as a need to do hundreds of dollars of supposed "necessary work" that my last dentist said I needed. Thank you Dr Jou for your honesty, which will definitely pay off because I will continue going to you. Staff is also friendly and their office appears to be maintained. read more

Dr. Jou and the staff are all very nice. The office is clean. Dr. Jou has a lot of attention to detail and is good at explaining things. I'm super happy that they're part of my kids' dental plan. read more

My sister recommended this dentist to me and now I see why. This was by far one of the best dentist visits I've ever been to. Dr. Jou cleaned/polished my teeth and came up with a dental plan for me. They kept the visit prompt and professional with honest prices. read more

I dreaded having to find a new dentist after 10+ years of avoiding it but Dr. Jou and his staff are amazing! Super personable and friendly!

The previous reviews are right on about this place... The location of the office leaves little to be desired; however, the service of the staff more than makes up for it. Dr. Jou is very nice and patient and best of all he is honest!!! (You can read up on my full story of why I went to him on my previous review of Setty Dental - San Jose). If you care more about integrity and quality rather than aesthetics, I'd say give this office a try. read more

Called in to make an appointment for the first time the girl said she will call to follow up on my mom's insurance prior to her appointment, 4 days before appointment I called in to see what's going on instead of them calling us and no answers no one will pick up the phone on a tuesday and then left a voice on Wednesday! Finally I called on Thursday and she is like oh we ever got a voice mail and sounded like ok whatever lol I cancelled the appointment only because lack of follow up and no answers! I totally dislike when a business does not answers the calls or return the calls back! Negative 10 stars read more

This Guy tricked me to call back in a month to become a new customer for my girls and then was told were not taking your insurance anymore. Total waste of our time left me holding the Bag. Where is the Honor in that? read more

Went to Dr. Jou for my HMO dentist and I can't say enough good things about him and his service. He is honest about what you'll need done and he will explain it to you in common English and he makes sure you understand before he starts treatment. Staff is excellent and patient with any troubles you may have. Best of all, Dr. Jou DOESN'T try and sell you things you don't really need. Can't say that about pretty much any of the other DDS I've had. It seems the only complaints I've seen for Dr. Jou are about location of office (watch out pulling in and out of driveway!) and some of equipment is kinda old but works fine. If you place a higher value on the actual dental work and $$$ saved than the frills of HDTV's and the like, Dr. Jou is the dentist for you!!!. read more

I used to go to Dr. Jou's office off of Jackson and really loved the way I was treated and the way it made me feel. He is a great person and excellent dentist. Very respectful of pain and your tolerances. He is highly recommended and we moved with him to his new location. read more

I was forced to select a new dentist due to my retirement. My selection, Dr. Jou, was an excellent choice because of his knowledge, skill, and genuine care for my concerns. My visits have been pleasant even though I do not like going to the dentist; he and his staff are very friendly! read more
