I am a patient of Dr Parks. I have been going to WSD for 30 years. 3 different dentists. First one retired, 2nd had long time with and she sold her practice. All have been great. They are extremely reasonable on payment. Yes, Dr Parks makes his own crowns, and I have a few. Love it. He is creating the shape with his own mold. I think that is a plus. I have never had any problems. I have never seen him mistreat anyone, all employees I see look respected and well trained. Also, when I am in waiting area, I hear people who have moved away from West Seattle but continue to come back and drive quite a distance to come back to this clinic. When I am in the chair, I have plenty of time to listen and never have I observed any employee getting treated disrespectfully and my observation is the various assistants who work with Dr Park very much respect him and he is able to kindly explain (or train) his crew to get what he needs. read more

After going to Dr. Park for 10 years, I finally went elsewhere after not being able to get in for 6 months. After my exam, I did not wish to continue with the new dentist I tried. Upon trying to schedule a cleaning the office told me I would need to pay for a new exam and they could not use the Xrays from another dentist for my cleaning. this is not brain surgery. Its a dental cleaning. Not taking another dentists exam seems ridiculous. Seems like just a way for them to charge me for an unnecessary exam. read more

Great staff and care. I got a crown today and it was a wonderful experience. Dr. Smith did a fantastic job, my new crown feels perfect. I highly recommend this office if you're looking for a dental office in West Seattle. read more

Do not go to this dental clinic all they care about is money I have seen some of the doctors do unnecessary work, especially on the very elderly people and they treat their staff like crap. Do not go in for an interview. Do not work there. Do not go there as a patient. read more

I've been going to Dr. Smith now for a while ( wife as well). He has always been a good dentist, we became his patients after Dr. Dunham retired . Today he became a great dentist in my eyes, the best in fact . I had to have an implant done that I'd been putting off for a couple of years. I've never been a fan of the dentist ever since having some bad experiences as a child. Dr. Smith was excellent from start to finish . The preplanning appointments a few weeks ago, the actual implant process today all of it was smooth and dare I say fun ! Dr. Smith was very conscious of making sure that I felt nothing during the procedure and we even had a nice conversation as he took breaks from drilling a titanium screw into my jaw . Literally could not have asked for a better experience. Shout out to his assistant Trish who was in there helping him today as well. Oh and did I mention I had my procedure this morning .. it's a beautiful sunny Friday and as he promised he would , Dr. Smith called me at 645PM on a rare sunny Friday In Seattle . He was calling to check in and see how I was feeling. I'm blown away and I would highly recommend Dr. Smith to anyone who is looking for the best of the best . read more

I sent email to this group's email address noted at their web site. I did not receive a reply. 2 business days after I sent the email I called their direct number. The call was routed to a recorded message. I left a message with a call back number. I did not receive a reply. 2 more business days after I sent the phone call, I again called their direct number. The call was again routed to a recorded message. I left a message with a call back number. I did not receive a reply. 2 more business days after the 2nd phone call I called back again. This time I selected one of the phone extensions for a doctor's office. The person I spoke with was unprofessional to the point of being rude and condescending. They said in the end they would have their intake person give me a call back so I could provide information they requested. Here it is 10 business days after my initial call and again no call back. Is this the kind of service what you want from a dentist or any medical group? I recommend you look further. read more

NEVER go here. Dr. Parks makes his own "in house" crowns. The ONLY crowns I have had a problem with are the ones made by him. One in particular was shredding floor it was so poorly made. I let Dr Parks know that. He pushed around on the edge and considered it 'fine'. Turns out the tooth became so infected that I actually had to have the tooth extracted ! The remaining crowns done by Dr. Park (in house made) are garbage as well: catching floss, holding food and are made poorly. DO NOT GO HERE AND AVOID DR PARKS ! read more

Once again I go to my dental appointment with a great deal of stress. Once again, I thank Roma for making my visit almost enjoyable! She is pleasant, friendly, cheerful. She knows what to do, how to do and when to do it. She answers any questions. Without a doubt, Roma is a real asset to WSDC. As a long time patient of Dr. Dunham, I was hesitant about his replacement, Dr Kyle Smith. But I have come to like Dr. Smith, respect him and appreciate his knowledge, skill, patience and willingness to discuss any issues. Dr. Smith and Roma make a stellar team! read more

Dr smith is an amazing dentist, is kind, personal and goes up and beyond any expectations we have had. Even met my husband after hours on a Saturday night when he broke his tooth. He is the best! read more

I cant say enough about the quality of care I have received at the WSDC. I hadn't been to the dentist in nearly 15 years and have tremendous dental anxiety. I literally put it off for as long as I could going back, I hadn't eaten a steak or crunchy vegetable in nearly 3 years due to several large cavities in a couple of my molars. Everyone in the office has such a calm and professional demeanor. They are so patient with you and focused on getting you through each appointment as quickly and comfortably as possible. If you've been delaying going back to the dentist for way to long, this is the place to go. read more

I've been a client of Dr. Jim Dunham for over 30 years until he retired. I never thought there would be anyone who was as good as Jim Dunham but his handpicked replacement, Dr. Kyle Smith is outstanding! I love this center! The staff is wonderful and I feel like I'm coming to visit my friends. Pamela M. read more

Dr. Smith over charges. With other dentists, my cleanings are covered 100% even when out of network, yet his are almost $100 out of pocket and his bills always need adjustment. Plus frequent X-rays. Fillings, even worse. 33% higher rates and my last one hurt for 2 weeks. Not to mention quality of cleanings and service. I changed to a better dentist in West Seattle. read more

This is the best dental office! The staff are friendly, Dr. Park is amazing and conservative with his approach. They are so accommodating and have come through my multiple emergencies over the past 6 years. Thank you for being great. read more

This review is long overdue as a longtime patient of Dr. Park! I have seen Dr. Park for probably close to 10 years by now and he has taken excellent care of my teeth which have at various times required root canals, crown replacements and more night guards than I would like to count! His office is clean and welcoming, and his staff is kind and professional. Jan who handles the scheduling is amazing and always manages to fit me in despite how busy Dr. Park's calendar is! My daughter recently graduated from her pediatric dentist and she has been seeing Dr. Park as well - he is great with kids and the hygienists are very gentle with her. Highly recommend this dentist, office and staff! read more

Is it possible to actually look forward to a dental appointment...? Yes, it is. I do... Every visit, while improving my dental health, is also a uniquely pleasant experience. The entire staff at West Seattle Dental are remarkable. Remarkable in their kindness, their caring attitude, their skills and their use of new, comfort focused dental technologies. This dental office is a gift to the community it serves. For decades I saw Dr. Dunham at this office. When he announced his retirement and noted that Dr. Kyle Smith would be taking over his practice, I felt it appropriate to give Dr. Smith's skills a try. I'll never look back. His patient, highly skilled efforts and always kind, caring approach were an ideal formula and I will never go elsewhere. Equally important, the entire staff are wonderful, caring and exceptionally skilled in their efforts. Besides Dr. Smith, I'll call out Brooke, Jackie, Ophelia and every other individual who I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Really...? A call from my Dr. at 7pm to make certain that I'm comfortable and all is well...? Yes. Really. Call them. Let them help you. Trust them. You won't be sorry. MJS read more

Dr Park is an excellent dentist. I am very comfortable following his recommendations and treatments. HOWEVER, do not visit the office for dental cleaning if Dr. Park is not in the office. The service I received this last time was not worth a single penny. The dental hygienist took a total of 20 minutes to do her job and no one checked her work. More importantly she was more interested in pushing her services of deep cleaning (scaling) which she performs and directly benefits her. I double check with other dentists (2) and they both agreed that I was a long way from needing that services. read more

I have anxiety to go to the dentist and have not been in well over 10 years. After moving to West Seattle, I knew I needed to see a dentist as I had an infection on a tooth that I have been dealing with a long, long time. I chose West Seattle Dental Center as they were close to my home. After my initial appointment (I had such anxiety I didn't sleep the night before), it was determined I needed a root canal on a few teeth (again it has been a long time). The root canal process went off with out a hitch, as well as, my next appointment for a crown. I just want to say the Dr. Smith and all the staff are amazing. They are all very friendly and I truly felt the compassion, and professionalism of all. They were VERY understanding about my anxiety. They made me feel safe and like I have known them for ever. This office is a one stop shop. I didn't have to go to other offices for different procedures they were all done on site. The crown process was competed during my visit. I didn't have to come back. I recommend West Seattle Dental Center for all your dental needs. This from someone who has major dentist anxiety, I look forward to my next visits to fix my teeth. Best of all???? They are Seahawk and Mariners fan (a big plus in my book). read more

West Seattle Dental Center provides excellent dental care. I've found the entire staff to be very gracious and highly competent. Dr. Wilcox had to treat one of my teeth that proved to be extra nervy--in other words, it HURT for a part of the procedure--but she and her assistant were extremely patient and made sure the work got done with my dignity intact--and the new crown fitted perfectly. All in spite of my serious dental phobia. I've gone here for 5 years now and have never had a bad experience. I highly recommend this practice. read more

Wow, Dr. Luke Park is the best dentist I have ever had. His staff is also excellent as well. He is extremely professional and caring. Everything was explained to me as they were performing throughout the process and frequently checking in to see how I was doing. I really appreciate how advanced in technology this office was, and definitely saved me from making multiple trips to the dentist. (I moved away from West Seattle, but will trek out of my way for good customer service!) I had a partial crown done, and everything was done in-house, from the x-ray to the molding of the crown. It was amazing to see the whole process from A to Z. In addition to this, he called me personally after an appointment to check on me! He is truly amazing, and I would definitely recommend him to all my friends and family. read more

i began going here before dr. park joined this dental center. i had only seen the previous dentist once, for just a routine cleaning, so it's tough to make an impression and write a review about her. but i have seen dr. park now a handful of times and i am sticking with him despite my insurance considering him out of their network. i believe he is THAT good that i am willing to pay for some of the work he has done out of pocket. that should tell you something! plainly put, dr. park is a perfectionist and that means he only has exceptional people on his team and together they handle each patient with amazing tact and respect. from the hygienists to the bookkeeper, these people are skilled at what they do and it shows. i've had dr. park himself replace two crowns in the past couple of years and i've been extremely pleased with his work ethic, his concern for patient pain during the procedure as well as follow up within the first week. he is very informative and willing to answer questions. he is also well versed with the latest technology so that crowns are milled in house and fitted the same day! i could easily chose to see a different dentist and avoid incurring out of pocket expenses, but i'll choose dr. park every time just so that i'm assured that the work that is done is the highest quality. read more

Dr park is an amazing dentist! I had a lot of work to be done and I was so embarrassed of my teeth and he made me feel confident enough to get in the chair and get the ball rolling to get my smile back! You can tell he truly cares and goes above and beyond. I'm so thankful he got me to get started. read more

My experience started here with just a routine teeth cleaning and check-up. The exam room that I was in was FREEZING. Then I was told by Dr. Dunham that I "was going to pay the price for not flossing." He found two cavities in the very back of my mouth. When he filled my cavities, I was struggling to keep my mouth open wide enough(my mouth is really small,) and he was acting frustrated and annoyed, and never even offered me a bite rest, which seems like an obvious solution. I had to go back 3 times to have my cavity adjusted and it still wasn't right, my teeth were really sensitive, and my bite was off. He also didn't offer me water or to rinse my mouth out after they grinded on my tooth and filled my mouth with dust. I ended up getting an infection in one of the cavities, which required a root canal. I will say that the front desk staff and hygenists at West Seattle Dental Center are very nice and helpful. read more

I see Dr. Hogan at the West Seattle Dental Center. Dr. Hogan and all of his staff are just wonderful! Always willing to listen and take care of issues...Great work, flexible, professional and pain free!! They knew I was nervous about dentists...and really worked with me...gassed me up and gently worked on me. Thank you so much for your wonderful work!! Nicola Beeson read more

I have been so impressed with Dr. Kathleen Saturay and her crew. She is patient and understanding about my 4 year old daughter's fears. What's impressed me most though, is the work she has done on me. I've been terrified of dentists ever since a bad experience when I was younger. Dr. Saturay has truly gone above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and safe. She even gave me her personal cell phone number so I could call her on her day off if I was experiencing any pain after a root canal. I can't recommend her enough. read more

I've been a patient here for over 20 years. I've had very few dental problems, but what I love about this place is Mai, my hygienist! What a gem. She is gentle, thorough, always ready to explain what she's doing. She knows me as a person--I look forward to having the routine work done in part because it means connecting with this lovely woman. read more

Last week I brought my 4 year old to Dr. Kathleen Saturay at West Seattle Dental Center and am very happy with her. Everyone was friendly and patient. Dr. Saturay asked about our views on fluoride and sealants. It felt good to have my opinion taken into consideration. She also patiently answered all my questions. My daughter actually came home singing a song about how she got "shinny teeth from the dentist". I highly recommend Dr. Saturay. read more

Been going here every 6 months for five years, and will continue to do so! I love the dental hygienists. They are so friendly, great at their jobs, and overall thoughtful people. Mine remember what we have talked about throughout the years, at this point they feel kind of like friends. read more

I had been a very satisfied patient of Dr Dunham for decades so was dismayed when I learned of his retirement. Dr Kyle Smith adopted the practice, and while I didn't know what to expect with this new dentist, I gave him a chance. I have been impressed with Dr Smith's professionalism and expertise - he is skilled in the newest dental technologies. He has my full confidence. read more

I recently had my first dental appointment with Dr. Saturay. The great experience starts with her office manager Teri who is the most pleasant woman. She gave me a clear understanding of what to expect from a financial standpoint and went out of her way to make me feel welcomed. Dr. Saturay was just the same. I was having gum sensitivity, and she thoroughly explained all the possibilities and used a conservative before aggressive approach. The fam found their West Seattle dentist! Quick update: My German Exchange student cracked his tooth, so we immediately contacted Dr. Saturay. Wow. She and her staff couldn't be more accommodating. She thoroughly explained the options, the cost, and did everything she can to keep it affordable given that he is not fully insured for dental in the United States. We truly found a gem of a dentist, and I must give big kudos to her staff! Thank you!! :) read more

My father was my dentist until he retired a few years ago. What a gem Dr. Park is. I could not imagine a more thorough, inquisitive or gentle replacement. He has great hands and his attention to detail is exceptional. I'm thrilled to call him my dentist. read more

Dr. Saturay is by far the most efficient, kind, considerate dentist I have been to. She explains everything in detail, listens to my concerns, offers options to ease my concerns and did exactly what I had expected... Although I dont think I can ever get past the cleaning procedure, its the nails on the chalk board sensation that kills it for me! All in all, her, her assitant and the staff were great! I will definately be going back for my dental work! read more

I've been seeing Dr Herrin for a couple years now and always thought he was great. Not real pleased with my "aging" smile, I talked to Dr Herrin about options. He and I agreed I would be a great candidate for veneers. I just completed the final stage a few days ago and could not be happier. Dr Herrin is AMAZING! The process was so easy and pleasant. He really is an artist! I can't stop smiling!! read more

I am so grateful to Dr. Park for fixing my tooth which was injured 18 years ago. I have been self conscious about it because of the way it chipped and shifted. I was really nervous about getting it looked at. Another dentist quoted me an expensive implant that would remove the tooth completely so I avoided the work for years. Dr. Park fixed it in 10 minutes without surgery and I couldn't believe how affordable it was. His staff is also amazing and I love visiting his office. His office manager Ophelia is a genuinely kind and very helpful with insurance advice. Thanks for everything. read more

I've taken my 2 kids to this center for the past several years. I was made to feel a suspect parent by telling them I didn't want x-rays for my very young children and prefer not to use fluoride. Then my insurance changed and Dr. Saturay was the only one in the building accepting my new insurance. My wife and I both called her office several times and never got a return call. We even went into the office to try and schedule an appointment. Dr. Saturay's office never called us back. I feel she may have been told by our previous dentists there that I am a "difficult" parent and so completely ignored our calls and requests for an appointment. While I'm disappointed with Dr. Saturay and having to find a new dentist farther from our house, our new dentist at "A Kid's Place, Too" is great. Thanks Ms. Saturay. read more

Dr. Luke Park and the team at West Seattle Dental Center are awesome! I had four appointments of the course of two weeks and each time they did a great job of making sure I was comfortable and knew what was happening during each step. Their office manager was super helpful and friendly, too! I ended up paying less than I expected, which may be a result of having fairly decent insurance, but from other reviews it sounds like they are pretty affordable anyway. My teeth look and feel great and I left feeling good about keeping them that way. Thanks again! read more

I was a patient here from the time I was 2 years old til I was 20! These guys are awesome. Dr. Hogan rocks! They have the best dental hygenists in the entire state. My whole family went here and loved it. No other dentist will ever compare to these guys! A real class act! read more

I've been going to Dr D for nearly 20 years. He is amazing! Kind, gentle and does excellent work. The office is clean, organized and friendly! read more

Dr. Hogan is the best dentist I have ever had. First thing you will notice is all the awards he has won for be involved in the industry/community for so many years. His service and expertise are crazy good. He is very easy to talk to and really good at his job. I have seen a lot of dentists in my day but Dr. Hogan is the best. I would highly recommend him. read more

I'm came to see Dr. Saturay for a second opinion on a possible root canal. I was impressed from the moment I met her. She spent twice as long examining my teeth than the first dentist I went to and ultimately decided I did not need a root canal. She recommended a few things to try to alleviate the sensitivity in my tooth and it worked!! I'm a total dental phobe but now have total faith that I'm in good hands with Dr. Saturay. Her hygienist is also a hoot!! Super nice guy. read more

If everyone took notes from Dr. Saturay, the world would be a better place, really. Every time I've met with Dr. S. and her staff, I've been inspired to be to be a better a person. They are friendly, personable and really have the patient's best interest in mind. They walk you through every step and recommendation. Plus, they provide sun glasses and headphones to ensure you are comfortable! I'd also like to note I never felt ashamed as with some other practices. The principles Dr. S. and her practice run by should be applied to every business! read more
