Steve Wong, DDS

Everything that has been said by other patients is true. I have been seeing Dr. Wong for a few years and found that for the first time in my life I actually visit my dentist every six month. It has become routine. He always sees me on time. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable. Someone else mentioned honest and I must agree. He is honest and never looks to do unnecessary expensive procedures. His manner is very matter-​of-​fact and that suits me fine. I’m in and out… always with zero cavities detected. Also, I like the little gift he gives me on my way out… maybe that’s his way of saying thanks for coming… two enthusiastic thumbs up for my semi-​annual visits to the dentist.

first appt. came in 10 minutes late. had a good cleaning. upon checking out, i was given an ultimatum that if any members of my family (three altogether) were late again he would drop our insurance… this part was confusing: apparently he went out of network anyway without notifying us and was planning to completely stop accepting our insurance altogether in the beginning of next year. very unpleasant attitude with an exception of front desk and his assistant.

It’s hard to find an honest dentist out there, and I had a fear of dentists for a long time because of painful past experiences. There are so many scammers who’ll tell you that you have a million cavities and it’ll cost an arm and a leg to fill them all. Dr. Wong is not that guy. He’s so straightforward, honest, only does what’s absolutely necessary, and what’s more, he’s got a really gentle touch when cleaning – he’s thorough, but takes care not to hurt you. My fear of dentists is gone – I don’t need to pop any beta-​blockers before I visit him. Even though I moved farther away from him, I’m going to keep going. Thanks Dr. Wong!

Got to agree with folks here and give Dr. Wong some much-​deserved respect. I think just about everyone in my life goes to him — from my BF to my boss — all are pleased with his care. Some folks have mentioned that he’s a bit cool, but there’s a dry humor in some of his remarks. I have crazy teeth that look good on the outside, but are really a challenge. He’s really done great work over the years replacing old fillings and attending to new ones. His staff is great and they do most of their work via email, which is very 21^st Century! Thanks, Dr. Wong.

Dr. Wong has been my dentist for 10 years now, because he’s super thorough, amazingly available (he’s even seen my husband on Memorial Day!), always on time, and not only doesn’t push unnecessary procedures, he once gave me a tooth-​colored filling and didn’t charge me extra even though my insurance would have covered only the gray kind. You don’t have to call the office, because there are automated reminders and you can conduct all your correspondence by email.
You will get the same lecture every single visit about how often to floss, chewing sugarless gum after meals, etc. (in fact, I think he should just record himself doing it because it’s exactly the same every single time). But that’s a small price to pay for the level of care you get.

I’ve been to Dr. Wong five or six times at this point, I think. To add to the other reviews about his punctuality and efficiency, as well as his cool manner, I would say that the single best thing about him is his technical skill in cleaning teeth. He does all his own cleaning, which I have not seen in a dentist’s office before.
I have not had any major issues for him or his staff to deal with, so I can’t really speak to that, but when it comes to cleaning he is the best out there, the best I have ever met BY FAR. He is extremely careful while also being extremely fast and (so far as I can tell) thorough. It’s basically a zero pain encounter.
I don’t know if there is another dentist on the planet who can do this.

Thorough, detailed, professional exam, assessment, cleaning, recommendations, and information. Very impressed with level of knowledge and expertise. Prompt appointment, excellent customer service from staff, organized efficient patient processing (email sent to me prior to appointment with welcome letter and patient history questionnaire). He even showed me an informational video about dental hygiene and then reviewed my X-​rays in detail. Best dental experience!

I agree to everything about Dr. Wong: prompt, thorough, knowledgable, communicative, etc… I actually enjoyed going for my cleaning. HOWEVER… as a regular client who came to rely on my 6 month email reminders, I actually had to call THEM to find out that after 10+ yrs of loyalty, my partner and I were literally DROPPED with w/​o notice, a «thank you» or possible referral. He also did the exact same thing to my partner’s son’s family and children.
He drops those who’s insurance, for whatever reason, he can no longer accept. That is understandable, but after having been a his patient for almost 10 yrs and not inform you that he must drop you as a patient is just inexcusable. It seems cowardly, unprofessional and disrespectful. He knows that is not a proper procedure when dealing with your clients. He’s an intelligent man, but has lost our respect. Even an EMAIL from one of his assistants, would have been better than leaving us wondering why we hadn’t heard anything. We had to call his office thinking that maybe we were overlooked for the regular email and phone reminders. Thank goodness neither of us had a dental emergency, only to find we’d been dropped! Unacceptable.
I had to re-​think my initial review because the ordeal left me angry and insulted. However, in hindsight, I have to say that he was a wonderful dentist. I would just advise his current patients to call THEM periodically to make sure you’re still on his books!
Thanks Dr. Wong and all the best in your continued practice. :-/

Dr. Wong is an outstanding dentist. He gave me a very thorough cleaning and more info about my teeth than I ever knew I wanted but it was great to learn. I walked in 5 minutes early for my appointment and got taken right away. Thank you Dr. Wong!

The positive words written thus far on Unilocal about Dr. Wong are true — to an extent. Dr. Wong is punctual beyond belief, communicative while he works on your teeth, thorough as a dentist, and does not push for unnecessary services. But he also lacks warmth and can seem flustered. To be truthful, I liked going to Dr. Wong (and I did for a few years), though other people I know did not — his coolness rubbed them the wrong way.
Therefore I was only somewhat surprised when, a few weeks ago, I called his office to schedule an appointment and learned that he had decided to not accept our insurance anymore. He had not considered notifying us of this decision in advance an important thing to do. Not so professional, and for sure a disappointment and an inconvenience.

By far the most thorough Dentist I have ever had. He and his staff fully communicate all their processes and do not for lack of better terms sugar coat potential issues. They are also great with kids!

Just had a cleaning with Doctor Wong. Pretty much echoing what everyone else said on here. I’m someone who has a busy schedule and like being as punctual as possible. He was ready to see me at my appointed time on the dot. Crazy!
The cleaning was very thorough and he gave me a great overview of my overall teeth health and any potential future needs. He also prescribed a future course of action to avoid future problems. I walked away confident my teeth were thoroughly cleaned and I also learned a bit more about my teeth, more so than any dentist before. Will definitely be going here again!

I like that Dr. Wong tells you everything that he is doing, as he is doing it. Once he has finished, he gives a break down of your overall mouth health in a very knowledgable, methodical and professional way.
A no-​nonsense guy.
I also like that there are not a rotating cast of hygenists and dentists here.

My mouth is a mess – I have had lots of dental work done-​Dr. Steve Wong is hands down THE BEST. I went right in-​his office is clean and his employees friendly. He had a very gentle touch and first grade equipment. I HIGHLY reccommend him!

It’s all true. Dr. Wong is the best: thorough, efficient and polite. I’ve been coming here for about 5 years and not once has my appointment started even a minute late. Amazing.

I almost never write Unilocal reviews but since I found Dr. Wong using Unilocal I feel compelled to comment on a very positive experience.
My appointment began on time (to the minute — unheard of) and was finished within an hour. Dr. Wong did the cleaning himself and walked me through what he was doing throughout the cleaning and exam. Very thorough cleaning. Dr. Wong was very professional and informative. The office was spotless and the staff was polite, professional and efficient. Also liked the music…
Highly recommend this dentist.

Dr. Wong has been my dentist for many years now, and after many bad experiences with other dentists earlier in life, he has restored my faith in dentistry.
Dr. Wong is kind, thorough, gentle and very skilled at what he does. He is fairly priced when the insurance coverage runs out, and his staff is professional and efficient. His office is terrific!

I was definitely a bit nervous to try a new dentist but I had an absolutely great experience. From the dentist, to the staff, to the office; everything was perfect.
As soon as I walked in I noticed how super clean, neat and well kept the office was and the service, was great! No wait time at all. I brought in two other people with me and we were in and out in no time. We were all very pleased.
Dr. Wong was professional, friendly and thorough and on top of things. The dentist knows his stuff and I am glad I made this appointment.
Dr. Wong was excellent. I highly highly recommend!

I think any dentist that gets a 5 star rating should also get a medal. Let’s start with how professional the staff is: very. They email you all the paperwork for first-​timers ahead of time so you don’t have to go early and sit there filling it all out in the waiting room and there are automated reminders of the appointments if you choose to avail yourself of them. The office is spotless and looks brand new.
But most importantly, Dr. Wong is efficient, professional, thorough and about as gentle as a dentist can be. He gives you a lot of information about how your teeth are doing. I’ve been three times now, and my husband now goes too.

Found this place on Unilocal so I feel compelled to write this very positive review about my experience. Called in the morning and the pleasant receptionist was able to find and confirm my insurance over the phone (just needed my SSN) and get me an appointment that day in just a few hours time.
It’s right around the corner from me (across the street from BookCourt bookstore) and I spent no time waiting before being given a chair and the professional efficient treatment. Wang was all business and very skilled and explained every step of the process as it was happening and you just knew you were in good hands. I walked in for a quick fix and left a customer for life (as long as I’m in the area :)). HIGHLY suggested.
