Dr. Keon Lee. The most careless, rude person l've ever met, and he's one of the two dentists at this place. I went in for a deep cleaning. No greeting whatsoever when he comes to my chair. Instantly tells me to open up and stay open. He proceeds to inject me w anesthesia to numb the right side of my mouth. The top part of my gums starts to hurt a lot, because I have sensitive gums. I tell him it hurts and yell out for him to stop, all I needed was a small break. He keeps me held down in the chair and yells back at me telling me "NO I CANT STOP" he then leaves me hyperventilating in the chair and carries on to the next patient on the other side of the wall. I'm left struggling to breathe normally, choking on my own breath, in that chair for about 15-20 minutes. I did not hear a single word from this Dr Keon Lee, less an apology. He treated me inhumane, almost as if I was a dog disobeying his order. The way I felt in that moment because of his treatment or lack there of, made me feel absolutely horrible. At the very least, the ladies there tried to calm me down. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone, especially not kids.

This is the first dentist I've been to in 40 years that is compassionate, funny, honest and 100% knowledgeable in his field. Dr. Lee is absolutely the #1 dentist to see for all ages, all problems, and i trust him absolutely. The staff are equally amazing. I had so many problems in the past that i let my teeth go far too long without treatment. I'm finally getting the work done and i have no doubts whatsoever that the end result will be a smile that I'm proud of. And the cost is lower than any other dental office here. Thank you, Dr. Lee and all your employees as well, for taking such great care of me. You are a wise and patient man!

Saw last review by Sylvia M,and wanted to ask which dentist said this because I’m going there and the last checkup might bite me at the end too cause that tooth hurts now!This dental place has Two dentists by last name Lee and the younger one was the best. He did an reimplant and really went far and beyond cause he checked to see if I had enough bone first, put a bone graph cause I didn’t and that tooth is not loose anymore cause it was a re implant. The other lee last checkup on one tooth which is chipped and food gets in there said nothing wrong here☹️, and it hurts and bothers me. Now, that tooth has throbbing pain. Also I had a tooth abscess and was referred out by that same older Lee and the Endodontics said it was another tooth that needs care versus the one he said. If I were to go there I’m always going to ask to be seen by the younger lee versus the other one ☝️.
