Peter Lee, DDS, MS

My 2 kids have been going to Dr. Lee for 10 years, my son got his braces and graduated, now is my daughter’s turn.
We build up a trust relationship and very therapeutic rapport with dr. Lee and the whole care team, very professional but not boring or uptight
Special thanks to Cindy, Dental assistant, she has been wonderful, she would assist you even though she is not assigned to you that day!
By the way, all the staff there are friendly, caring and professional!
5 stars for sure!

I went to several orthodontist for consultation but Dr. Peter was by far the best! He was very through and honest how my teeth conditions were. Most of orthodontist recommended me to put braces on right away but Dr. Peter told me its not really necessarily. He explained in very detail several times even after their working hrs. I loved all the staff! They were all really friendly. I would recommend anyone who needs braces! Ellen

Excellent service. My brother and I have been coming to Dr. Lee’s office for over 10 years started at around age 8 yrs old. When we started out as patients, my parents were uncertain if they could find any dentist to fix me and my brother’s severe overbites. Dr. Lee took up this «extreme case» challenge, and over time way exceeded my family’s expectations. Over many years and an intensive process with braces and various dental procedures, we have beautiful smiles today. Dr. Lee delivered his promise to deliver the best service in a situation where it was hard to be optimistic.
But more importantly, I admire Dr. Lee and his staff for the culture they have created in their practice. It feels like being a part of a family. Dr. Lee and his staff are genuinely concerned with the overall well-​being of their patients, and always love to have great conversations. Everyone is friendly and attentive. Dr. Lee has a ridiculous sense of humor that I look forward to every time I come to the office. I actually look really forward to coming to dentist appointments because of the interaction with the staff.
Facilities are very clean and nice. You have to find street parking which may be a little tricky though.
Bottom line: If you want the best of the best, go to Dr. Lee. He probably ranks in the top 5% of his industry based on his extensive knowledge of dentistry, education background– (teaches at UCSF), on the East Coast, and in England. Very sharp guy. Life transforming business, with the effect of not just performing dental services, but improving self-​esteem and developing relationships with clients. Dr. Lee has played an instrumental role in the lives of many children and seeing them grow up. That’s true service there.

We have had great experiences with Dr. Lee and his entire staff. When our daughter was 4, our regular dentist suggested we take her to an orthodontist to get an idea of what kind of work would be necessary in a few years so we could start saving money, since he anticipated a lot of work (yes, her mouth was that bad). And that began her long journey with Dr. Lee. She has had expanders, a device to prevent thumb sucking, a torturous Herbst appliance, stints with rubber bands, etc. Luckily, she was a model patient and we had really great results. Then Dr. Lee treated my son. His teeth were actually not that bad, but he was a terrible patient… the kind who didn’t wear his rubber bands and broke his braces (must have been eating forbidden food). I was losing patience with my son and his non-​compliance, but Dr. Lee and his staff never did. His braces were recently removed, and his results are just as good as his sister’s. I enthusiastically recommend Dr. Lee!

Dr. Peter Lee has been my orthodontist for the past 5 years. I have had an extremely positive experience. Most importantly, he straightened my teeth and my horrible overbite. He and his staff were always friendly and respectful. They were nice and very talkative. Dr. Lee runs a successful business because he actually cares for his patients. The place is clean and you can even watch tv while he works on your teeth. Come here to get your teeth fixed. Dismiss the other 1 star reviews. He is truly the best orthodontist.

I went to Dr. Lee to get my braces, and I think my mom picked the perfect place for me to get them. Dr. Lee and his staff are super friendly and caring. You can watch movies during your appt. and they have video games and books while you wait. Their new office looks beautiful and their bathroom has an underwater theme which i think is amazing.

Our family LOVES Dr. Peter Lee and his entire staff. We have two sons who both needed braces. There’s two real big things I care about — communication and care. When it comes to orthodontics — it’s not about cavities and flossing your teeth — it can be some serious stuff. In our case, there was the real possibility that my son would need jaw surgery and that’s a scary notion for parents. Dr. Lee is fabulous in communicating and educating both parents and young patients with the right mix of care, love, science and humor. As it turns out — our son Kyle didn’t need that surgery after all, but at least we were mentally prepared and appreciated the honest, candid, and great «bed-​side» manners.
The entire staff work as a great team and they see your children grow up.
They are spirited and transform the office to celebrate the seasons of the year. They even celebrate the momentous occasion when the braces come off!
In the end we had great results. Handsome boys with handsome teeth!
Here’s a video I made called, «Spooky Orthodontist» that captures the playful energy of Dr. Peter Lee. It has to be watched on a computer not mobile phone or iPad.

I’ve been going to Doctor Lee ever since the eighth grade (college student now), and I highly recommend him. He and his staff are friendly and all take great pride in their work. He always pays attention to detail. I used to have reaaaaaaaaaallly crooked teeth, but Dr. Lee made sure to make them perfect. I was always afraid to get braces, but it was a quick process and didn’t hurt at all. And like some of the other reviewer said, there’s always a good movie playing on their TV screens, haha. Great experience for many years, def recommend to go see him. :)

Dr. Peter Lee is one of the finest orthodontists I have ever encountered. He is always up on the latest techniques, he teaches at UCSF school of dentistry, yet he is down to earth, friendly and I love his sense of humor. The results are amazing! It means a lot that before he starts treatment when necessary, he has a periodontist gum specialist assess the foundational health first. Dr. Lee creates the best health, esthetics, and long term success for his patients!!!

I highly recommend any looking for a potential orthodontist because Dr. Lee is awesome. I am so grateful to my mom’s friend for recommending him to us. Dr. Lee guided my parents and I through the process with great detail because my parents cannot speak a word of English, so Dr. Lee speaking in Chinese with them was nice. When I had the braces on, I thought those 2 – 3 years took forever, but Dr. Lee paid a lot of attention to detail and I am forever grateful for it. Even when my braces are off and I wear my retainers, Dr. Lee notices the smallest detail ever and is willing to help me correct it again. The end result was good, but Dr. Lee wanted to make those results even better and I am perfectly fine with that. By the way, His office and his staff are pretty awesome too.

This is what I wrote to Dr. Lee after my daughter saw him for the last time:
«Dr. Lee, I just want to take a moment to thank you for all the wonderful work you have done with (my daughter) over these last many years. You were so patient in those early years, tweaking things here and there, waiting for just the right time to give her braces. It has all worked out beautifully – her teeth look fantastic! I give her a lot of credit too, for being very good about wearing the retainers. But I know that is part of what you were waiting for, for her to grow mature enough to follow through. Your plan was perfect.
«I sing your praises whenever anyone asks if I know a good orthodontist! Thank you so much, and thanks also to Dr. (Dorothy) Pang, who definitely helped us through some of the more complicated times.»
Dr. Lee, orthodontist, and Dr. Pang, pediatric dentist, share office space, which was very convenient for us while my daughter was wearing the braces. And, FYI, my daughter has Down syndrome, and her teeth were a mess. Dr. Lee was convinced that if we just waited for the right time, she would be able to comply with the requirements for wearing braces, then retainers. It took years to get to that point, and a few baby teeth were pulled during that time (by Dr. Pang), to make room for her permanent teeth. Dr. Lee’s instincts were spot-​on. My daughter still wears her retainers faithfully, and her teeth are beautiful!

My 3 brothers and I have been going to Dr. Peter Lee since we can remember. The new offices are super cool. Great video games and movies while you wait! I have always been greeted by friendly staff members. I have gone through 2 sets of braces. I am so happy with the results. My teeth look better than any of my other friends. I know that my parents have always had great things to say about our dentist Dr. Pang and Dr. Peter Lee. Thank you for everything!

Excellent Dentist!!! Very patient and pays attention to detail!!! THUMBS UP !!! I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Peter Lee. My only regret is that we didn’t find him sooner. Was amazing to see all the high tech equipment. They kid patients there seemed happy to actually be there. Video games etc. Wish my dentist office was like this when I was a kid HA! Very nice staff and environment indeed!

Dr lee and his staff handled my extremely complicated case and brought about a great result. Fantastic work

Dr. Lee is a fantastic orthodontist, very capable, great with kids, and really accommodating. Our 9 year old daughter has a retainer and our experience with him has been great. She really likes going to the office for appointments because of the movies, games, etc.

This is probably the best money I have ever spent. Dr Peter Lee did a great job on my teeth and changed the way I feel about myself. During 2 years of treatment, Peter Lee and the staff were helpful and quick in response to any issues. Although it was expensive, I think it’s a good idea to pick the best possible orthodontist out there since it is long-​term treatment that the end result will stick with you even longer.

Dear fellow Unilocalers, numerous times I’ve heard of people expressing their concerns about not having the best experiences with their dentists.
Well, look no further!
For over 13 years in counting, my experience with Doctor Peter Lee and his staff has been nothing less than exceptional for my sister and I.
During my visits, I can always expect the following:
— A consistent display of professionalism and the ability to connect with anyone in the office (from the admin staff to the assistants to Dr. Lee) The fact that the assistants and Dr. Lee are always so energetic and personable are a plus, especially how passionate they get when you don’t take good care of your teeth (their efforts!)
— A facility that sparkles like the head of Mr. Clean, which would probably put the restaurant health score cards to shame (after all, this is where they operate on your teeth, so I would expect nothing less)
— An environment that puts its clients first by providing a plethora of various entertainment for the seated patients and those waiting in the lobby
— although busy since everyone wants to see the man himself, Dr. Lee would make the effort to take the time to educate me on the status of my evershifting teeth and provide me with various options and solutions to suit my goals. It really makes me, as a client, feel important to them.
I dont expect you to take my word for it, but just give them a visit and you’ll know why I’ll be very sad whenever Dr. Lee decides to retire.

I have been going to Dr. Lee for over 5 years and to say the least, you are getting the best of the best. Everyone in the office is welcoming and kind and you really feel comfortable in the newly renovated office. He is dedicated to providing the best service for his customers and the results couldnt have been better (braces, teeth allignment)! I tend to be misplacing my retainers all the time and even with his busy schedule he is still able to see me within 2 days notice, that goes for any emergency I may be having. Even if I have a any questions regarding my teeth I am able call him anytime and get a direct answer without having to worry. I highly recommend Dr. Lee for all your ortho work, you will not regret it! Prices are also reasonable which is always a plus!

My experience with Dr. Lee has been non-​satisfactory. The treatment was very expensive and the result was very poor. He does talk friendly, but treatment is the bottom line. He has many assistants that he gives instruction to. The assistants do the job. Many times he did not even check on how well did the assistants do. He loves to talk friendly, but has less patience to hear what the patient has to say. I do agree with previous reviewer that his assistants are friendly. Only not all of them are competent. Their practice facility is new and clean. My kid likes to play with the game.

Dr Peter Lee is the best! It can’t get any better. His front desk staff is just so helpful and kind! Have not been treated this nice in another docs office around. They treat you as another member of the family. Great feeling. I highly recommend him! For adults or kids!!! I’m one of his adult patient and I can’t say enough good things about him and practice. Can’t forget to mention his assistants, they have a lot of patience and are very gentle. The office is extremely neat and clean. I just love them. I’m certain that I’ll be bringing my kids to him (-;
