Randall I Hashimoto, DDS

Dr. Hashimoto was wonderful with my son when he was feeling anxious about visiting the dentist. He took extra time to explain what he was doing and was very patient! We’re changing over our whole family to his practice. The staff is very organized and efficient. The office is clean and very nice.

Dr. Hashimoto has been my family’s dentist for over a decade. He and his staff are fantastic! I can’t say enough great things about him. :)

This review is long overdue. While on the search for a dentist in Fremont years ago, I went to 3 others in the area for visits/​consultations. All of them had differing input on the amount of work I needed done. i.e. number of cavities I had. Some recommended a ridiculous amount of work. One even said I needed 2 root canals 7 years ago which I have not done and am still fine today? I did choose another dentist, but wasn’t happy with the work done or how the office was run.
When i finally got to Dr. Hashimoto about 6 years ago, I hope I never have to leave his care. He says what he sees and evaluates them and makes recommendations as if it were his own teeth. He just makes so much sense and I know I can really trust him. My husband and kids now go to him also. He’s really great with little kids too. Once you’ve had the best, you really can’t go back. Even if my insurance stopped covering them, I would pay additional out of pocket to see him. Yes, he and his whole practice are just that good.

I’ve been going to Dr. Hashimoto for years and I’ve never felt so taken care of at any other dentist. He really listens to his patients, loves his job, does quality work and charges fair prices. He is also just a cool guy! I would recommend him to everyone.

Great!

My husband and I both went to Dr. Hashimoto for about 3 years. We just moved away so I wanted to write a review in hopes that our spots are filled with two more patients! I have nothing but good things to say about our experiences. Dr. Hashimoto and his staff were always so friendly, helpful, and efficient — I was never left waiting at an appointment. The toothbrush, floss, travel-​sized toothpaste I got at every cleaning also came in handy. I will miss this place!

Dr. Hoshimoto is incredible … Friendly, informative ready to answer my every question his support staff rock the house as well!!! Not having been to a dentist in twenty years I was nervous, apon arrival was set at ease

GUMS DISEASE PREVENTION
I had a dentist appointment today but I’ve been going to Randy for sixteen years starting with my junior year in college. The first advice he gave me on my first appointment was to take care of my gums. My gums were really in awful shape. As he cleaned them my mouth turned into the Red Sea. This is not to scare you but puts you on notice of taking care of your gums to prevent gum diseases in the future. Think of the plant and the soil where your teeth are the plan and the gums are the soil. Taking care of my gums is the best advice Randy has given me. Because of this advice he’s great dentist. His staff is also helpful because they give you advices in taking care of your teeth. If you want to take care both of your teeth and gums I highly recommend this place.

Excellent dentist! It is a pleasure to visit his office — which is not what one often sais when going to the dentist! Dr. Hashimoto and his staff are so good — that my wife and I commute almost an hour to go to his office.

Due to frequent traveling for work, I’ve been way past due for a dentist’s visit. For the few days that I’m back home, i never seem to find an open slot from my family’s dentist… Worrying that my wisdom teeth, which have been growing sideways from past years’ x-​rays, have to be pulled out soon, i decided to go find myself a dentist while i’m here (finally). Thanks to Unilocal,i found Dr. Hashimoto.
The staff are friendly and helpful. The hygienist was very gentle (never hurt me one bit), and she explained what she was doing throughout the whole procedure. She also gave advice on how i should take care of my teeth.
Dr. Hashimoto was not intimidating at all. He made me feel comfortable, and his explanations are thorough and easy to understand. From the x-​rays, he said that my wisdom teeth need not be pulled out! According to him, as long as they’re not bothering me/​causing any complications — they don’t have to be pulled out ever! *big happy face*. As with my cavities (from years of postponing a dentist’s visit), i only need to get one small one filled *big sigh of relief*.
First dentist’s visit in a while = a happy patient.
ps. i love the puzzles, they’re all over the hallways and in every room! :-)

My husband and I both like Dr. Hashimoto’s conservative approach and calming manner. We are both new to Fremont and were nervous about leaving our trusted dentist of 25 years. He recommended waiting to pull a wisdom tooth for my husband until the small cavity in it began to hurt. He could easily have filled the cavity and then made more money pulling out the tooth (which was recommended by our other dentist) a short while later. He gained my husband’s trust that he wasn’t just going to do needless procedures and had the patience to wait for my husband to admit his tooth needed to come out — no small feat! My husband is a dental wimp.

Great experience I’ve had for a very long time. After a chain of bad and shady dentists who were never upfront with charges and services performed, I found one that was perfect for my family.
I recently moved to Fremont and did not have anyone to recommend us a good dentist so I went to one that were sending us advertisement in the mail. Very clean and big place with the new and fancy individual TVs and everything. The dentist said my wife’s teeth were in bad shape and I need some work as well. She quoted us about $ 4K to do deep clean and redo old fillings for my wife and I. I asked for a copy of our xrays. Went home and sent it to my dentist friend from out of town and completely disagreed with she said.
I took a risk and found Dr. Randall Hashimoto. Olga the reception was super down to earth and sweet. I told her my situation and she squeezed my in that same week! Dr. Hashimoto’s office had a very classic feel of a dentist office I went to when I was kid during the 80s. He took over the business from his retired father. Great man, very honest, went through my x-​rays and also disagreed with the previous dentist. Olga ran an estimate and it would cost us only $ 200 and he was doing at least have of the previous recommendation.
Make sure to ask your new dentist if they are in network because they dont tell you upfront and it could be a time waster.
Thank you Olga and Dr. Hashimoto for your sincerity and professionalism!

I have been going to Randy since last year. He’s a good friend of my husband and my husband has been telling me for your years to go to him. I finally did last year and he’s been excellent! He’s taken care of the problems I’ve had for years just like that! I would totally recommend him if you are looking for a dentist.

Our family has been going to Randall since he started his practice and his dad before that since 1963.
My wife and I have regular checkups and always seem to be trouble free and we’re thankful for that.
I cannot say enough about his personality and skill, if you knew his mom and dad you would nod your head and agree… that’s where he gets it from.
It is a pleasure to see him every 6 months and an honor to know all of them.
The office is very nice and the staff is great.

I’ve had a few dental experiences that have reminded me of the scene in the Marathon Man, where Lawrence Olivier is torturing Dustin Hoffman by drilling his teeth without anesthesia. Thankfully, none of those white knuckle experiences have ever happened with Dr. Hashimoto.
I’ve been coming to Randy’s office since 2000. A lot has changed since then, but Dr. Hashimoto’s office still provides the same friendly, excellent service that they always have.
One of the things I liked about Dr. Hashimoto, is that instead of trying to upsell unnecessary procedures, he takes a conservative approach to dentistry. Some of the other snake-​oil salesmen in the dental field should take a lesson from his high ethics and integrity.
I highly recommend Dr. Hashimoto to anyone in the market for a new dentist.

A great group of professionals always with smiles on their faces! Doesn’t try to push multiple procedures on you — — he likes to take a wait and see approach. Knows his stuff.

I have been seeing Dr. Hashimoto for many years now, and I couldn’t be any happier. As with most people, I didn’t care or wanted to see a dentist. When I first saw Dr. Hashimoto he was calming and funny and made me feel right at home. After getting my x-ray’s back he made a few suggestions and told me didn’t need a few procedures my other dentist suggested before I transferred. He’s honest and really cares for your mouth and overall well being. His staff is like family to me and I recommend this office and Doctor with no hesitation, in fact I have sent a lot of my friend’s there and their families.

I took my two young children (9 and 3) to see Dr. Hashimoto for the first time today. This is a FANTASTIC dental office! There was amazing customer service from the first day that I booked the appointment (OLGA IS GREAT!) and a sense of caring from everyone who works there. It was the first time my 3 year old had been to see a dentist. I was affraid that she would give them a hard time, not let them clean her teeth and just cry a lot. But to my surprise the hygenist made her feel so comfortable that she ended up really enjoying her visit. How many people can say that a three year old LIKED the dentist appointment?! The hygenist did a great job of putting her at ease and even made the cleaning a fun thing for her.
As far as Dr Hashimoto, he was really great. I got the feeling that he truly cares about his patients, no matter what age they are. He didn’t rush through the appointment, he took his time with each child and made sure that he answered all questions regarding their hygiene regimen. I am very happy that I found this office and would definitely recommend Dr Hashimoto to anyone in need of a dentist who provides superior care to his patients!

I’m one of those people who try to put off going to the dentist… just because I’m worried about getting a cavity (yes, I know is not the best logic… but I’m sure plenty of you out there feel the same way). My Buddy suggested for me to see Dr. Hashimoto & only had good things to say about him & his staff. I had recently moved from San Jose to Fremont (which isn’t far, but in my head– was my excuse to dump the old dentist I had), & I figured I better get my teeth checked before they started to fall out of my mouth on their own.
Dr. Hashimoto’s staff was very friendly & professional. My hygienist was very friendly, gentle and explained to me what she was doing/​planning to do (which helped to keep me relaxed).
I unfortunately had a cavity (danG!). Truth be told, Dr. Hashimoto did a great job. He’s very charismatic which helps ease the nerves… everything else was smooth. He was quick & very meticulous.
I plan to bring my daughter to him & have already suggested him to a few friends. If you’re looking for a great dentist, you should call and make an appointment with Dr. Randy Hashimoto, you won’t be disappointed.

Dr. Hashimoto has been my dentist for the last 5 years. Both he and his staff are as good as it gets in terms of professionalism, courtesy and patient care. Recently, I was in dire need of a root canal and not to mention a lot of pain. I contacted Dr. Hashimoto who got out of bed and met me at his office on an early Sunday morning. He relieved my pain by drilling into my tooth and releasing the pressure. He went as far as scheduling me with an Endodontist the very next day. Patient care just doesn’t get better than that.
