    Ambus was polite, attentive, and did not try to encourage additional work, in fact, quite to the contrary.

    I've been coming to this dental office for over 10 years and have had all my major dental needs…read moretaken care of here: from wisdom teeth removal to my first root canal, along with the regular cleanings I get every six months. Dr. Luo and his team have always treated me with the utmost respect and courtesy, and I really appreciate how accommodating they are when I call in for last-minute appointments - they always do their best to fit me in as soon as possible. During visits, they offer helpful advice and feedback whenever I ask, and I've always felt well-informed and cared for. I also enjoy the charm of the office; the little touches in the waiting room and the ample seating make it feel welcoming. While it can get pretty busy on weekends, my needs have always been met without issue. Parking's not a hassle either as there's metered parking conveniently located right outside the office. Dr. Luo is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and kind. I have a lot of respect for him and his team, and I'll continue to return for all my dental care.

    I am downgrading my five star review to one star due to the way I was treated by the staff. For…read morethe past several months, I have paid out of pocket for a Delta Dental plan that I know their office accepts. This is despite my being unemployed for most of 2024 and turning 65 at the end of August - yes, I am a "senior". On 9/16/24, I began a position with the State of CA where they offer a variety of dental plans. Since I need a considerable amount of work done - at least 10 implants, I was considering maintaining my current policy and signing up for a policy offered through the state. With open enrollment two weeks away, I wanted to ensure I chose a policy Dr. Luo's office accepted. I called their office multiple times. Each time I tried leaving a message, my message was cut off so that I could only say five words - very frustrating. I even called their office on Saturday as I recall their office is open on Saturday. When my calls were not returned, I sent a text message. Still no response. I should add that Dr. Luo's office had already fitted me with eight to 10 crowns. After insurance paid their max of $2K for the year I paid the remaining $10K in a lump sum check as i want to avoid making payments and se the at Dr. Luo is compensated for his work. When I still received no response, I went to their website and tried reaching out that way. Finally, five days after starting my new job, I called the office for the 20th time. I was told Dr. Luo had COVID and that the office was closed. I explained I started a new job and all I need to know is what type of dental insurance they accept. I recall from past conversations they accept Met Life. When I asked the woman if they accept Met Life she confirmed they did accept the insurance. However when I went into more details, she suddenly said, no we don't accept Met Life. I then asked about Delta Dental. She confirmed they accept Delta Dental but as I went into more specifics she then said, no we don't accept that insurance. Feeling totally frustrated, I told her I will give her the dental providers and she can let me know what plans they accept. She refused to work with me. I have since looked and there are other dentists in my area that are open Saturday. From my past observation(s) it is clear Dr. Luo's staff caters to Asian clients. I am disappointed in how I was treated and will not be returning. Suggestion. Next time Dr. Luo comes down with COVID, you should change your outgoing voicemail message to reflect this so patients are not kept waiting for days on end waiting for a return call. I need thousands of dollars in dental work - implants are my only option. I would have paid upfront but you lost me as a customer due to your substandard treatment of me.

    After nearly 20 years living in San Francisco - and cycling through a new dentist every couple of…read moreyears hoping to find the right fit -I can finally say I've found "my" dentist. It might sound unusual, but I genuinely look forward to my dental appointments. Especially in a world that feels increasingly stressful and anxiety-filled, that hour in the chair has become one of the most welcoming, calming, and unexpectedly enjoyable parts of my week. Dr. Tran at Thodas & Tran Dentistry changed that for me. Even though he is out of network for me and not local to me - I happily travel from SF to San Bruno because he and his team are worth it. Dr. Tran has a steady, reassuring presence and takes the time to clearly explain what's happening, what to expect, and each step along the way. He thoughtfully reviews all options, walks through the pros and cons, and makes sure you feel informed and empowered - never pressured. Georgia and the other dental hygienist are the best. My teeth have never felt this clean! Professional rocks starts. Jenny, the dental assistant is excellent - so knowledgeable, warm and friendly, and always one step ahead and ready to go. The entire staff is amazing. You're treated like a person, not a number. After two decades of searching, I FINALY feel completely confident, happy, and at ease with my dental care. Highly recommend!!!

Dr. Kim Tran is a total pro; he's efficient, and don't push unnecessary procedures, and he make the whole experience stress-free. Also, a huge shout-out to Michelle at the front desk. Even though it was my very first time and she didn't know me, she was incredibly helpful and managed to get me in for a last-minute substitution following a cancellation. She made the scheduling side of things a breeze. Best dentist in San Bruno, hands down."
