“Dr. Zao was very thorough and provided information I was not aware of, resulting in excellent care. It was also convenient that insurance was accepted and I did not pay upfront.”

Doctor Gao was incredibly kind and caring. She was very patient and I felt very comfortable with her, and she went the extra mile to ensure I felt no pain or discomfort during the procedure. Made me realize how some of my past dentists have not been quite as caring.
