Dr. Yu is an excellent Dentist who goes the extra mile for her patients.
My only issue is it is very pricey.
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
Dr. Annie is a really great dentist and super nice person. She cleans her teeth herself and takes her time explaining the little details like your x-rays and flossing. I pay a little more than I did at my last dentist but I think she is really worth it. She also helped me correct some tooth grinding and shifting of my teeth since my braces as a kid. :)

Quite posssibly one of the best dentist I have ever visited, particularly in the DC Metro Area. Dr. Yu answered all my questions completely and understood all my concerns. She made a usually terrible procedure (wisdom teeth extraction) easy to sit through and recover from. I highly recommend her.

She is actually as great as her reviews say! Extremely nice, professional, thorough, and compassionate. She performs a truly comprehensive exam and makes sure that every dental issue is addressed. She did not tack on any 'extras' or pressure me to get work done that I didn't immediately need. My previous dentist kept calling me to come in for bite guards despite telling her I don't grind my teeth at night. Dr. Yu told me that the stress lines in my teeth and my exam suggested that I was clenching my teeth during the day (she was right) and taught me how to stop. Attention to detail and true physical exam skills!

Always friendly (both front desk staff and Dr. Yu), and pleasant. The dental office is always nice and bright and clean and there's great music playing in the background. Wonderful environment, and comfortable, which, seeing as it is a dental office, is quite nice and helps add to the overall pleasant experience.

August 27, 2016Sarah F.Verified patient
Annie is the BEST dentist I have ever visited. She is caring and kind and offers very helpful advice on maintaining proper care of your teeth. Her friendly and happy demeanor make it easy to visit the dentist for routine cleanings and more detailed care. I should also add that I don't have to wait when I arrive for my appointments, which is very important given my hectic schedule. I am never disappointed when I visit Annie Yu.
July 27, 2016Christy G.Verified patient
As usual, Dr. Yu provided great care. She is always informative and caring in every aspect of her work. I have never had a more understanding, smart and skilled dentist. She provides very thorough care and does an excellent job of educating me about good dental hygiene so that I can take the best possible care of my teeth in between my visits. I feel very fortunate to have found her!
July 1, 2016Toby L.Verified patient
Dr. Yu is very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. I have seen her multiple times and always have a great experience. I feel like my teeth are in good care with her. The office also is clean, bright and modern, and I have never had to wait. Highly recommend.

I actually look forward to going to the dentist, that's how great Dr. Yu is. She's friendly, easy to talk to, and genuinely wants the best for your dental health (with other dentists it's sometimes felt like they push unnecessary fillings or procedures)
April 25, 2016Initials hidden
I continue to be so exceptionally pleased with the care I receive from Dr. Yu. She knows her patients very well and cares about them as individuals, not as customers. She takes extra steps to personalize my care, knowing what procedures make me feel the most comfortable. I am pleased to hear about the professional meetings and seminars she attends to stay abreast of the latest developments in the field. I also very much appreciate her guidance on how best to care for my teeth and gums. She is a good educator as well as a skilled practitioner. I was surprised to learn new actions to take that my prior dentist of many years had never suggested. I feel very lucky to have found her.

She's the best!
