This is a World-Class dentist facility and good for rich people, not for ordinary people. I won't recommend this facility to anyone that I know because no one is able to afford it. Even though this facility is in my insurance network, their fee is triple more than the the insurance coverage.

Dr. Patrick Ngafook was amazing! I was really nervous about getting root canal, but the entire experience was much better than I expected. The team was so kind, reassuring and gentle. They explained everything about insurance in a way that made me feel confident and calm.

My appointment was great. I am usually scared of dentists but Dr. Pat was very reassuring and calming. I got the deep cleaning done for one side, and now can't wait to be back for the right side.

Dr. Pat was so thorough! One of the best experiences I've had with an endodontist. My previous root canal was a painful experience at another dentist, this one was seamless!

I was in lots of pain. I asked to come same day and the doctor was able to see me and also treat me. He did an amazing job. I don't feel pain anymore and I now come to smile lab for the rest of my treatment. Awesome!
