| - This is my dentist, my last one. For all those that know me, know that I have this thing where I change dentists much too often. Why? Because I could never find one that wasn't out there to rip me off and feed me a load of bull. I had taken to going from dentist to dentist to get an opinion that actually would be consistent. I found Dr. Hao through YELP and amazed by the amount of positive reviews I decided to give him a try. First of all, the wait time to see him was long. I wasn't overly concerned because I figured it would be. However, I also had an emergency appointment with Dr. Hao done a month after my first visit and was booked in right away. I find that Dr. Hao is one of those dentists that truly does respect and care about his patients so if that means he has to cut back on his personal time off to fit in emergency appointments, he does.
Anyway, I didn't expect much going into my first appointment. I figured he'd do the same thing most of the other dentists I saw would do - take more xrays (despite me sending over xrays from my previous dentist), charge me a ridiculous amount to go over my gums and determine quickly through one xray that I needed a root canal. This was not the case here. Dr. Hao spent a good amount of time with me explaining my xrays, comparing them to other patients, taking actual photographs of my teeth with all his cool new equipment and even did an extensive oral cancer check with an UV light. I felt he was incredibly thorough, calm and encouraging. My dental anxiety was melting away.
As stated previously, my emergency appointment followed and I was booked in right away with no questions asked. Once more, Dr. Hao was very thorough and I trusted his diagnoses. Apparently I just had sensitive teeth that were bothering me. I was given a few suggestions and products to try, he didn't try to sell me anything from his office either which was new to me.
Lastly, I had a cavity filled with Dr. Hao which another dentist said I'd need a root canal on. The cavity wasn't even deep to ever consider such an extreme action. It was just awkwardly placed. Despite the strange location of the cavity, Dr. Hao once more assured me that he would succeed in fixing it with minimal difficulty. He then compared my cavity to previous patients so I could get a visual of what work would be done. He is the only dentist that I've been to that has done that and It calmed me down considering my anxiety. During the process of having my tooth fixed Dr. Hao would occasionally stop and take photos of the tooth in question so that I could see the actual cavity. He was very informative and involved me in what he was doing.
It's been a while and the teeth Dr. Hao fixed have been doing great. I never had any sensitivity after the fillings nor any other problems. I recommend him to everyone seeking a new dentist, he is simply the best. Fantastic bed side manner, a great sense of humor and lets not forget his staff- they are all so friendly and personable. I am happy to note that I will no longer be dentist hunting!
