Dr Harry Sangha fit me in one morning when I had a terrible toothache. I called in as soon as their…read moreoffice was open and an hour later, I was in his chair being treated. Him and his staff were so kind. I ended up getting a root canal on the tooth, and it has been feeling great since. I grew up with several traumatic dental experiences and I've avoided dentists like the plague since, which is why my mouth is a complete mess. Since I stepped into Dr. Harry Sangha's office, I've been back to treat several more teeth, including 2 more root canals and several fillings. He is an excellent dentist: kind, transparent and thorough. And his staff is also amazing: well organized, communicative and supportive. I'm a self-employed musician so I don't have insurance and I live on a tight budget. This office is very affordable, even for expensive treatments like root canals. I've visited other dental offices before and they quoted me much more for the same types of treatments.

It's never a fun time to undergo a dental procedure, but my experience with Dr. Abbey and his team of Emily and May was much more pleasant than expected. During my appointment, Dr. Abbey decided to switch to another procedure than what was initially recommended but he was very thorough and patient when giving me his justification as why he believed the change would yield a better result. The team who worked on my treatment had a very calm energy and they were always checking in to see if I was ok. They were patient and professional. Considering I was in the dental chair for a little over 2 hours, the experience was a pleasant as it could be and I really appreciate all the information they gave me during and at the end of the appointment. Sarah, the receptionist was also very kind and called me the next day to check in on how I was doing. Overall, Kits Endo is a very professional office and everyone I came in contact with were kind, professional and caring. Highly recommend them for your endodontic needs.

Came in to have my nightguard replaced and cleaning done at the same time. While the office manager…read moreoffered me a "better deal" on the replacement, my cleaning fees saw a whopping 37% increase from just 8 months ago. That's even crazier than the local housing market! And to add insult to injury I didn't even get topical fluoride this time. Also the sample dental floss included in the 'complementary' goody bag is the worst floss I've ever used. So, one star goes to the nightguard, which only required minor adjustments to fit ok comfortably; and another goes to the dentist's dog, which has incredible pearly whites.

I would enthusiastically recommend the services of Pacific Dental to anyone. From the moment I…read morewalked into their clinic I felt seen and heard, which is important if you're admittedly a little nervous before a trip to the dentist.

Had two root canal done at this place. Was told would last ten years or even life time. One of them…read morefailed after about two years and inflammation is growing under the tooth. Went in yesterday to have to have it checked up. The doctor seems to want to blame it on variety of reasons such as bad luck and the lack of night guard which doesn't really make sense given I had no history grinding teeth. And given I spent over $10,000 on the root canals and crowns, why would I skip on a few hundred dollars of night guard if it was made clear I needed it at the time of the treatment. There's also a growing gap between the crown and my gum, potentially caused by the metal crown itself. I'm not sure why a metal crown was chosen, especially since I've been told elsewhere that they're not ideal for sensitive teeth. I recall a larger than expected gap between this crown and the neighboring tooth, and I experienced minor pain when chewing. The dentist dismissed it as normal at the time, but I wonder if this contributed to the failure. While I understand that these procedures aren't always guaranteed, I chose this practice because I believed they were specialists who could deliver superior results. The outcome has been very disappointing. What's most upsetting is the lack of empathy and accountability from the dentist and staff. Instead of offering any form of apology or compensation, they seem focused on promoting a $9,000 implant. Why do I come here again if it didn't work well the last time? Maybe it also has to do with the nurse's English. It was hard to understand her. The same goes for the doctor. The communication seems to go in circles a lot of the time. The only good service was the Asian lady at the front desk. Overall, the dentist's skills are questionable, the staff are unhelpful, and the service has not been what I would have expected that cost of tens of thousands of dollars. You get Comfort Inn service while paying for Four Seasons prices. Doesn't make sense.

Being a UBC student and living in downtown, it was hard for me to find a convenient dental office…read more I did my research looking for the top Vancouver dentist who is very knowledgable. On my way to UBC a few times I noticed Vancouver Dental Specialty Clinic. Being that they were specialists, I thought I can get better high quality dental care but I was concerned the fee would be more expensive. Surprisingly, I found their fee is very reasonable. Dr. Zaeimdar was very kind, knowledgable and explained to me all is needed for my teeth and gum. What was interesting to me, was that other dental options never gave me the options VDSC gave me. I decided to trust Dr. Zaeimdar and do the treatment. I believe I got the best treatment there was ALONG with a reasonable price!

Everyone is very nice and makes sure that you get the best (and most painless) service while feeling (almost) like at home. I was impressed when Dr. Alex saw a typo in my bill from 1.5 years ago which I haven't discovered, and immediately excused and reimbursed me...I think 99% of the dentists would not have told me and kept the money. Thanks Dr. Alex, it is a pleasure being your patient!

On your first visit to the office, you don't sit down in the dentist chair right away - instead Dr. Marshall takes you into his office and has a little "teeth chat" - he goes over any problems you've had in the past, worries/concerns you have, or hopes for the future. Yes, hopes for your teeth. Then you're ushered into the light and airy dental chair areas and get the inspections done by fantastic hygienists (Mel is awesome!) while getting a view of the North Shore mountains. They also have blankets for you if you ever feel chilly! They are very thorough - whenever you need work done, the dentists explain exactly what has happened, and the various courses of action that they can take to fix it. I've often sat in the chair with a hand mirror, while the dentist shows me something on my teeth or gums. Fascinating - these guys really love teeth. They are excellent dentists too - very precise with their work, and I've never had pain when they're working on my mouth! The only downside is that apparently they are on the expensive end of dentistry, but it's totally worth it for me to know that I have experts working on my teeth! However, if money's tight for you, ask them to do an insurance proposal for anything they plan on doing - so you know what you're getting into. The office is always happy to do that, and abide by my wishes! I have referred three of my friends to the Drs Marshall office and everyone has been happy with them too!

My husband and I have been going to see Dr. Bruce Marshall since we moved to Vancouver. He was…read morereferred to us by our neighbor, a Professor of Dentistry from UBC, so we considered that a very credible endorsement. Bruce, his assistant Ting and his hygienist Mel are outstanding. My first visit with Dr. Marshall involved a sit-down in his office with a discussion about my dental health and my goals for my teeth. I had never previously experienced that level of concern over my chompers and it wasn't until then that I realized my teeth had been under-achievers! Dr. Marshall is a fabulous technician but what sets him apart from his peers are his excellent communication skills and his focus on making your dental experience as pleasant as one could have in a dental chair. From the second that you sit down you are told that you are the boss and if something isn't working for you, changes will be made until it does work for you to get the desired result. What other dentist calls you to check how you are doing after a procedure and gives you their personal cell phone number to call if there are any problems once so ever? Other than dentist drills sounding like they are noises being emitted from the final circle of hell (unavoidable), Dr. Marshall has created an environment that even the most fearful dental patient would have to admit is actually quite pleasant. My husband and I have recommended him to friends and colleagues and we would not hesitate to do so again in the future.

He took the time to explain what the problem was and answered all the questions I had. He also explained how the procedure would be so that I did not have any surprises. During the root canal procedure, he kept checking in with me to make sure I was doing ok and kept telling me that it was ok if I needed a break. He was just delightful! The front staff were also super friendly, they made sure to go over my insurance with me so I knew what I was getting in for and helped me file my claim as well. They don't direct bill but they do help you submit your claim. After the procedure, the doctor again asked me if I had any questions and made sure I was going home feeling comfortable. The next day, the staff called to follow up with me and make sure I was doing ok. They kept saying that if anything comes up, they would be there to help and that I shouldn't hesitate to call them. Really impressed with the way the treat their patients!

In addition to Dr. Hafezi's professionalism and care, his team maintains this level of kindness and knowledge throughout their role at the front and within their hygienist duties.
