Dr. Ku. has been our family dentist for about 4 years. Our family can't say enough wonderful things about him and his entire staff. The other evening, our son was having discomfort with his new tooth coming in, but his baby tooth was still in. We snapped a photo, emailed Dr. Ku at 7:00PM and asked his thoughts. Within minutes Dr. Ku wrote us back and gave us his advice. I have never met a dentist that's so caring and thoughtful. Thank you for helping our family and helping our 5 year old never have a fear of visiting the dentist. Our son always looks forward to his visit and loves picking out his treasures after his cleaning. read more

This place has never done me wrong. They never find cavities that aren't there and I feel that I always get excellent. In a way there is not that much to say because the experience has always been pleasant. One time, after having some work done on my front tooth on the top of my mouth, I had some chipping on the opposite tooth on the bottom of my mouth. I asked if I could please get the repair at a discounted price and they met me halfway, which I think is totally fair. Businesses spend a lot of money on marketing every single year, it cost a lot less to keep a happy customer coming back. Hopefully, my family will. read more

Dr.Ku, Dr.Pham and his team are awesome. They are very understanding and every time I have gone to an appointment I don't wait they have been on time every time and we have been going to him for years my daughter is going to be 9 and she has been with him since she has needed to see the dentist. I love that they are text friendly they will text you the day before and sometimes the day of to remind u !! Their office is always clean they greet with a smile and are very friendly. With the new covid guidelines I felt very comfortable being in their office they have the chairs sectioned off and there was only one other person in the lobby the lobby was pretty much empty. I go their myself and feel comfortable! A good dentist for kids!! My kids love them! read more

We absolutely adore Dr. Ku and his staff. They are all extremely patient and kind. We are partial to Miss Sarah at the front desk- she is our fav :). All three of my boys and myself have been patients of Dr. Ku's for over four years. His office has provided the most pleasant dental experience I have ever encountered. The staff is kind, gentle and genuine in their approach. You will never receive unneeded care from this office; they treat what needs to be treated. You will find a very kid-friendly environment with plenty of toys and games to keep your little ones busy while you wait. On that note, we have NEVER had to wait beyond our appointment time to be seen. This office is extremely punctual. We are a military fam and the thought of some day moving away from the area makes me sad to leave our dentist behind. read more

I am so impressed by this place! My family has been here 3 times and there isn't a negative thing I can say! 1) The front staff is amazing!! Very friendly and went above and beyond in helping me! They came out and had conversations with us while we were waiting, had snacks for the kids and coffee for me. 2) All 3 times we had NO wait time. My husband was out of there in 30 minutes and I was out after an hour and that included x-rays, cleaning and getting a cavity filled. Which they did the same day so I wouldn't have to come back. Today I took all 3 of my kids and we were out in an hour. My son had a hole that needed filled and they did it before he left so he wouldn't have to come back. 3) The dentist was very, very friendly. He came out several times to talk to me and tell me what was going on with the kids. He took the time to chat with me and discuss any concerns I had. 4) They have a play room for the kids to keep them busy. Overall this place was amazing, 5 star staff and 5 star dentist. read more

These guys are ridiculous, the only reason I'm giving them a bad review is because I was at a dental appointment with my son and he did not move at all the whole time. I watched him through out the whole appointment and they had the audacity to tell my wife over the phone after I left that he kept moving and had to be referred somewhere else. I honestly think they just wanted to be lazy and have leas kids because they make more money off of adults. This dentist is a joke. read more

We visited the office for the first time today for a peek at my 17 month olds teeth, due to what I knew maybe staining from iron supplements he took at a point. I called yesterday and got the appt for Today. When we walked in we were warmly greeted and the ladies at the front were super engaging with my little guy. We went and played in the toy room for a few min while we waited for the dr which was a super short wait and then instead of stressing my little guy out by going to the back he took a peek of him out where he was comfortable. The dentist was very reassuring, no pressure and didn't make me worry about anything. He was calm, polite and easy going and really everyone there made the whole process pleasant. So happy to have read so many good reviews about this office when searching for a dentist since we're new to the area :) highly recommend read more

I cannot speak on my experience with Dr. Ku since Dr. Pham always assists me. She's really nice and very gentle when she works on my teeth. I recently had a crown replaced but I did not get to see it the day it was permanently cemented. I didn't think about asking to see it, nor was I asked. It ended up not matching the rest of my teeth; could this have been a lab mistake? Maybe. Just make sure you get to see the permanent one before it goes on, otherwise you'll be told you have to pay again since it's a "cosmetic" defect =\ I was given other options that involved teeth whitening, but again that's more money I'll have to pay out of pocket. read more

They were my dentist! They were In charge, according to the urgent care, of anything to do with my mouth and an infection comes up they bring me in to take some xrays charge my insurance then tell me they did no work and they can't help with the pain from the tooth infection? Some of the worst pain I've ever felt and needless to say what the urgent care gave me barely helped.

This is a fantastic place. Everything about it was a positive experience. It took me a few weeks to work out an appointment because of things going on in my own life, but when I could finally make one I got in very quick. Sarah at the front desk is amazing. Every single time I talked to her she was upbeat, compassionate, and was all the more inviting. Which brings me to Dentist himself, he was very nice and informative. He did not push me to buy services I did not need, and even offered me advice on how to SAVE money. The decor of the place is phenomenal. The atmosphere alone lessens the worry we all feel of being at the dentist. Try this place out. The prices are reasonable and the staff is helpful.

My hometown dentist had set the bar high, but Ethos has truly exceeded all of my expectations and set a new standard of excellence. When I first started my search, I visited another dentist who quoted me nearly $8,000 for a root canal--even after insurance (Delta Dental). I was in pain, overwhelmed, and desperate for the right care. From the moment I called Ethos, I knew I was in good hands. The receptionists are some of the kindest, most attentive people I've ever met--they listen with care, are incredibly organized, and made sure I was seen right away. At my first appointment, Paige (the hygienist) was wonderful--gentle, thorough, and genuinely kind. The office itself is spotless, modern, and so comfortable. Each room has a TV with headphones, clean cozy blankets, and little touches that make you feel at ease. Dr. Vargas has been an absolute light throughout my entire experience. He is not only highly intelligent and skilled, but also approachable and compassionate. He explained every step of my care plan clearly, always put my best interest first, and made sure I felt heard and comfortable. I needed a couple of root canals (my first ever), and while I was nervous, the process was painless, quick, and seamless. Their referral for an endodontist was also excellent. Back at Ethos, Carlos did an amazing job crafting my temporary crown--it was carefully sculpted, perfectly color-matched, and surprisingly comfortable. My permanent crown was also a perfect fit, and when I needed a minor adjustment afterward, Dr. Vargas immediately got me in and personally followed up to make sure everything felt right. The fact that he even called me after appointments to check in says everything about the level of care here. More recently, I had another cleaning and started their whitening program. The team took into account my teeth sensitivity and took the time to explain the process thoroughly and made sure my whitening trays were precise and comfortable. At that visit I also saw Dr. Sewell, who was so fun, energetic, and personable--he has a fantastic sense of humor and made the whole experience enjoyable. From start to finish, Ethos has gone above and beyond in every aspect of care. Whether you see Dr. Vargas or Dr. Sewell, you will be treated with kindness, expertise, and genuine care. I can't recommend Ethos Advanced Dental Care enough--it's truly the best dental experience I've ever had.

I had an incredibly frustrating and disrespectful experience with this office that ended up wasting…read moretwo full months of my time. I previously had dental work done elsewhere where a tooth was ground down too far, and I simply wanted cosmetic bonding to rebuild and even out the teeth. This office advertises bonding, so I scheduled an appointment specifically for that service. At my first appointment, I was expecting to see Dr. Josh, but I was seen by a completely different dentist. Instead of discussing bonding (the reason I scheduled the appointment), the entire visit turned into a hard sales pitch for veneers. I repeatedly made it clear that I was not interested in veneers and only wanted bonding. I was then told the dentist who actually performs bonding was not even in the office, so they scheduled another appointment, which had to be a month later due to my traveling work schedule. I came in for my second "consultation" expecting to finally meet with Dr. Josh and discuss the situation face-to-face. Instead, the dentist never came out to see me at all. The condescending receptionist had to repeatedly go to the back to speak with someone and then come back to relay messages. I was ultimately turned away and told the doctor "was not comfortable" doing the bonding with no further explanation as to why. So after two months of waiting, taking time off work, and showing up to my appointment, the doctor didn't even have the basic courtesy to come out, look at my teeth, or explain the decision in person. If they were never willing to do bonding, that should have been communicated from the beginning instead of dragging this out for two months and pushing veneers. The whole experience felt like they were far more interested in upselling expensive cosmetic procedures than actually helping me with the service they advertise. I travel frequently for work and am on a time crunch, and this situation has been incredibly stressful because I simply want my smile to look normal again after the previous dental work. The lack of communication, lack of transparency, and complete disregard for my time was extremely disappointing. I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere if you're seeking honest cosmetic dental work.

He carefully explained the X-ray results, answered all of our questions, and walked us through every step of the procedure so we knew exactly what to expect. The staff was just as impressive. They clearly explained what our insurance would cover, what our out-of-pocket costs would be, and even offered flexible payment plan options. There were no surprises--everything was transparent and easy to understand. To our surprise and relief, the entire procedure was completed the very same day. My son and I left feeling genuinely cared for, respected, and confident that we had received the best possible treatment. I've never had such a positive experience at a dental office. Every member of the team was friendly, compassionate, professional, and made us feel like we truly mattered. I highly recommend Zak Dental in Temecula to anyone looking for outstanding dental care. Thank you for making what could have been a stressful experience such a positive one!

Very expensive, and when the work failed, accountability was not there…read more I had a crown placed on tooth 19 on 12/23/2025. After placement, I continued having pain and cold sensitivity, and I raised concerns before any root canal was done that the crown was not contacting or functioning correctly. Multiple adjustments were made, but the problem was not resolved. I was then told to proceed with a root canal, and after that the crown still was not functioning properly. The end result was a crown with no proper occlusal contact that was not functional for normal chewing. Dr. Im also stated in writing, "You won't need a new crown" and "We do not remake crowns (my crowns) after root canal treatment." Despite all of that, Dr. Im refused to replace the crown or issue a refund. In my experience, the office felt more sales oriented than patient outcome oriented, and I was not comfortable with how far discussions went beyond the core dental issue I came in to address. I have filed complaints with the Dental Board of California and the California Attorney General.

I called in because I suspected I had a severe tongue tie and they made me an appt to see the…read moredentist. The experience was bizarre. First of all it took wayyy too long (I was there over 2 hours) just for a consult - no cleaning or anything. It was totally disorganized - they were having me fill out a million forms on paper then the same forms on a digital screen which took so long and I had to stop to start the appt. Dr Im would have kept me even longer and acted annoyed I had to leave after 2 hours 15 minutes. Secondly, Dr Im has a strange bedside manner. She didn't really "diagnose me" - she just rambled about tongue ties and kept pulling up screenshots on her computer to show me. It was a disjointed "presentation" not a diagnosis and I was entirely unclear what did or didn't relate to me. I kept asking questions to clarify and she would answer nonsensically so I kept getting more confused. Her assistant took about a thousand high res images and a scan of my skull. With no physical examination or further follow up using an explorer tool to tap on my teeth and feel for irregularities, she then declared I had "leaky fillings" and dental decay. She didn't tell me which specific teeth were supposedly experiencing these issues. I explained I had just last month had a dental exam and x rays and was cleared with no issues. She stated that you wouldn't see the decay on X-rays, only on her amazing cameras but assured me it could be reallyyy bad underneath (wouldn't you see it on the X-rays then?). She scoffed at the idea that a dentist can diagnose teeth unless they have her expensive camera set up. I think it's suspect she didn't ask to review my recent X-rays and simply dismissed them outright. IMO it is highly unusual and not best practice for a dentist to rely only on images, even high-resolution ones, to diagnose the condition of a filling. She appeared to have a bias towards technology, and came across as overly reliant on her camera system. My spidey senses were going off like crazy. After wasting my time she ended by saying I'd need to make an appt with their myofunctional therapist for an evaluation - why wasn't I sent there first? I didn't need a dental evaluation - I was looking for a tongue tie evaluation. I called my dentist and reported what they said about my teeth and they had me come back free of charge and my dentist said "your teeth are fine. No cavities. The fillings aren't cracked. You want to keep them as long as possible and avoid messing with them when not necessary." I found another dental office that, when I called, directed me to their myofunctional therapist directly for a consult. I'm so glad I didn't end up using Dr Im for my tongue tie. As others say be very very careful if you go here... and if she says you need a gazillion new fillings get another opinion!

Juliana was a major help during a very vulnerable time. I booked multiple at-home lactation…read moreconsultations when I was freshly postpartum, and she provided personalized and thorough after-visit reports to support my breastfeeding journey. I was dealing with blood blisters, a poor latch, doubts and fears about supply, and a baby that was temporarily not gaining enough weight. As a first-time mom, it was extremely stressful, and there were many tears. However, Juliana's visits always left me feeling more informed, reassured, and capable. We also did a weighted feed during every visit, which confirmed that my baby was indeed getting enough to eat. I still remember the relief I felt when I learned that. Juliana is a big reason why I decided to stay the course with breastfeeding. (Thank goodness, because now I LOVE it.) My insurance covered the cost of the visits, so I just paid the $60 travel fee. I also attended her breastfeeding class with my husband before giving birth. This was super helpful, but I recommend taking the class within 1 month of your due date. We took it a bit too early in my pregnancy, and forgot a couple things by the time I gave birth. Overall, I would highly recommend booking a lactation consultation with Juliana if you're in need of support!

We decided that with our for sure LAST baby we would do things differently. After having 2 natural…read more(no meds) hospital births that were not pleasant experiences by any means, I wanted to have a home water birth. Steven made sure I had just that. I did the research and found the absolute BEST midwife I could have ever prayed for. From the very beginning of our journey Christina Sanders made us feel like family. She included everyone in all of the appts, let's just say my 3 year old, Stori, is now a midwife in training. Everything about her and the world of midwifery, let us know we made the perfect decision. It was a very special intimate experience. Though natural labor is excruciatingly painful, being in my own space with my husband and daughter Ahmyiah by my side, along with Christina and Kristen Rud (Midwife in training) it was so peaceful and I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. There was less stress, less anxiety, no stupid intake questions that had been answered 100000x before, nobody making you feel incompetent, nobody barking orders. Instead, It was perfect lighting, soothing warm water, Christina reassuring me that I'm doing great and to simply let my body do what it is naturally designed to do, all while surrounded by nothing but love! It's hard to fully describe, just know that it exceeded all of my expectations and I am beyond grateful that I had the opportunity to take this journey with so much love. The postpartum care was unexpected and soooo needed. 1 Day after they came back to check on both of us, bringing me tea and food to assist in the recovery process. Tinctures and herbs to soothe discomfort. 1 week they were back checking on us and providing me with more yummy treats. They even prepared the most beautiful floral/herbal bath for Xo and I to share. It was magical. The GIFTS they made for us OMG if I was a cryer Id have been balling...A couple weeks later I had some weird wacky things going on with my skin, most likely had to do with my liver needing to heal. Christina jumped right in to help me find awesome natural soap for the weird rash and she gave me another tea to help my liver recover, it worked! 6 weeks postpartum we went back to the office for our final check. It was bittersweet, knowing our prenatal journey was over and that would be the last time I'd sit in that office as a pregnant mama. As of today, Xo is 5 months old. We still keep in contact, and always plan to. Christina and Kristen are two beautiful women with hearts of gold that we never knew we needed!!!

I am so happy to have found Amanda! My family and I absolutely love her, and I would recommend her…read moreto anyone planning a natural birth. Her passion for what she does shows, and she'll care for your baby like her own. This was my second birth, and when compared to the coldness and unfamiliarity of the hospital, I can't imagine giving birth any other way! I also want to mention that Amanda is prepared for hiccups. My baby got stuck in-between my legs, and Amanda was calm when helping baby and I get through it. She managed to untangle the cord, encourage me to continue pushing, and grab the resuscitator incase baby needed it. Amanda works calmly, swiftly, and effectively. Also, I'm convinced my baby already knew who she was! Baby could recognize her voice, and Amanda's loving energy because she was/is as calm in Amanda's arms as she is in mine. If we were to have another baby, we wouldn't hesitate to call her. She's worth every penny and much more. She is such a genuine person. Her support does not end the day baby is born, she continues to check in on the well-being of you and baby. I feel so fortunate to have had her as my midwife!

When I became pregnant with my second son I knew that I wanted a natural home birth after feeling…read moredisregarded during my first son's birth at the hospital. I did a little research and spoke to 3 midwives. However there is something special about Amanda and choosing her as my midwife was a no brainer. For one, she offered to have our first meeting at my house. Second, upon meeting her, she had such a calm demeanor and soothing voice that my worries and anxiety regarding a home birth went away. From then on my interactions with Amanda became more meaningful. I always brought my first son to all my appts and Amanda was so sweet at letting him play with her stethoscope. During these appointments she talks to your baby as she is checking baby's heartbeat. She looks at your health holistically, and even allowed to me to talk about stress and worries that I was experiencing at the time. I feel this was so important for my overall pregnancy health. The day I have birth I was already experiencing intermittent labor and my water was leaking out. Amanda came over and offered different options on how to get my labor to progress, and was so patient with me as I was able to dictate what I wanted to do and not do. She gave me the space to listen to my own body. She was incredibly patient and calm and guided my husband and I every step of the way. And let me remind you, her voice is so soft and soothing that when you are in the thick of labor contractions, she is all you will want to hear. Several hours later, my son was born and Amanda was by my side! Amanda is truly a caring person and it is evident that she loves what she does. Her energy is so warm and inviting. When my baby met her, he just melted into her, as if he knew her. This entire experience was nothing short of incredible for me, and I really have Amanda to thank for that. I encourage anyone looking for a midwife to consider Amanda.

Wouldn't recommend this service to anyone! Our experience was very similar to Emily's experience…read more I'd say almost to the T with the exception of her assistant, Sally was great and is one of the reason my wife and son are alive today. My wife and I expressed concerns about her pelvis being too narrow but she brushed it off and we believed her. A mistake that nearly ended my new family. She would say that something was fine and then would say that the same thing was concerning. We chalked it up to her being a bit eccentric. On top of that, we only got reimbursed a little over $100 from insurance and we had Anthem PPO at the time. Not necessarily her fault but it added to the negative experience and expenses. My wife's labor ended up being 24hrs at home and 36hrs total which ended in a C-Section. She was little to no help and it was Sally that recommended we go to the hospital. Plug-in for Rancho Springs, amazing hospital and staff. It's not what we wanted but definitely what we needed and more. We didn't want a hospital birth but they have the best ward bar none. Only hospital me and my wife would go to for this. From our conversations with other people that used her in the past, I think she was once a great midwife but from our experience, I would highly discourage anyone from using her services. If you use her, you'll be playing roulette with you and your child's life.

Would not recommend Our son was born early September 2024…read moreand Anne was our midwife for the pregnancy. During our meetings we were constantly recommended to seek outside opinions from my OBGYN and medical facilities, causing us to spend thousands more during my pregnancy and birth on top of her fee for services ($6000). During my birth Anne and her assistants made the environment stressful when I expressed for my birth to be peaceful to my liking. Upon Anne's arrival she said that I was fully dilated at 6am. At 3pm Anne had checked me and told me that she had still felt some of my cervix (I WAS NOT FULLY DILATED). She had complained earlier in the day that her fingers were too short to check properly, so I'm not sure how she has been a midwife and her fingers be too short to check her clients. I was instructed to push while not being fully dilated. Anne appeared impatient and she didn't seem to know what to do to help me progress. After an hour and a half of pushing she recommended transfer to the hospital. Upon arrival at the hospital I was checked and was dilated to AN EIGHT. The hospital determined that my baby was too large to have naturally. During my pregnancy we brought up the size of my baby and Anne would discredit all the ultrasounds and weight estimates that we were given. I had my baby via c-section and was born at 11 pounds 1 ounce, he would never have been born safely naturally. After my hospital stay we returned home to a birth pool fully inflated and still containing the water from my labor, this was after I was told that everything would be cleaned up before our return. A warning to all, a contract is presented and must be signed that states once Anne shows up to your birth/labor there are NO REFUNDS of any sort. Ultimately I would not recommend Anne's services as a midwife. If you are looking for a midwife to trust as your expert and for a safe, comfortable birth, look elsewhere.

I will start by saying I have never written a review on yelp for any business, but after coming here I felt compelled. I made appointments for myself and my two kids. The kids just needed a check up and I hadn't had a cleaning in over 10 years because every dentist I went to wanted me to pay for a deep cleaning and wouldn't do a basic one. Dr ku did a basic cleaning on me although I am coming back for a second one because I need it lol. My youngest daughter did have a cavity that was going to need filled......so we made another appointment to come back in a week. I walked out feeling extremely satisfied with the service we all received and how friendly they all were. It gets better though! We came back for our second appointment shortly after the first so that my girls could get their molars sealed, and we could get that cavity filled. I will admit I was a little worried not because of Dr ku but because family members had been telling my daughter about the shots and drilling that happens when you have a cavity so she was terrified! I bribed her to go back there and Dr. Ku was AMAZING! I SERIOUSLY CANT STRESS THAT ENOUGH! They numbed her with gel. she never saw or felt the shot or the drilling. :) when we left she told me that dr ku was a special dentist because he got the cavity out without drilling or giving her a shot. She said it didn't hurt at all! I am so pleased with the service that this dental office provides. My kids love going to the dentist and I wish more dentist were like Dr. Ku. I promise you will not be disappointed when you come here. read more

Thanks Dr. Ku!! My teeth feel great! Also,very happy that his office has Saturday appointments available. I wasn't thrilled about visiting the dentist. It had been almost 25 years since I had any work done on my teeth. I was expecting some scolding and judgement, but my experience was quite the opposite. Dr. Ku and his assistant- Yvette?- assured me that I made a smart choice to take the first step back into dental care. I felt that some of my questions were naive, but they addressed all of my concerns with confidence and sincerity. The teeth cleaning was thorough and much more comfortable than I thought it would be. No complaints whatsoever. The facility is nicely furnished and the equipment modern. I can tell that my wife and kids will like this office. He did inform me of future care that I should plan for (pulling wisdom teeth being the priority), but there was no sales pressure about it. I highly recommend Dr. Ku!!! read more

He said, let me see what our sales person can do The salesperson then appeared with a quote: $3,400 cash -- more than double what I'd been told on the phone -- or $1,450 if I purchased their recommended insurance plan. I told him no, I can't afford it, getting more noticeably upset He disappeared for 5-10 minutes and came back with the exact same total, just broken into different line items. By the time I walked out, I had told three different people four times I couldn't afford it, and there were no offers of other options that might be within my price range. Called my old dentist and got a quote of $600-$800 cash for a deep cleaning, but was advised they aren't sure I'm going to need it. They are farther but worth a drive to save over $1000. So, I would skip this place unless you enjoy sales pitches with your dental work.

I had a horrible experience with this office, not so much the dentist, but the office staff. First…read moreoff, they kept going back and forth about my insurance being in network or not. I have excellent health and dental insurance but for some reason, this office either didn't know how to process the paperwork or didn't want to. The first two years were fine and then all of a sudden, last summer, this office decided they didn't want to be in network. Last summer, I showed up to my appointment and they told me the day of, they wouldn't accept my insurance (BCBS Federal Employee Program). Then magically, the office manager figured it out and they were able to accept and process my insurance. Today, same thing happened. I guess the moral of the story is, just depends on their mood if they want to process and accept your insurance and be in network..the day of your appointment. Mind you, there are 3 people in my family, all being seen by this dentist. Beware and try another dentist that is more consistent. I really tried to give them the benefit of the doubt but instead have decided to move on.
