The Proof is in Our Patients

The dentist is always super kind. I HATE going to see the dentist, but I was having terrible jaw pain and it was unbearable. The office got me in quickly. The staff was super kind, and the dentist was very knowledgeable and informed me of every step of the way. I will continue to recommend them ❤️ stars

I appreciate that both dentists made extra effort for my situation- I had a challenging root canal and the dentist was humble to send me to a specialist and also didn’t charge me. The follow up dentist was considerate since I moved and did work to relieve my trips. Both were always kind despite being super busy. I enjoyed my interaction with staff despite their busy environment! stars

Kathleen Scott

Wow! I made an impulsive appointment at 11pm for 9am the next morning as a brand new patient. These ladies still had me in and out with fresh x-rays, a full cleaning, and a fluoride treatment in less than 45 minutes. They were friendly, kind, and right down to business. The dentist was compassionate and answered my questions with no pressure to get expensive treatments or procedures I might not be ready for yet. They are excellent!!!! stars

Alisha Lehigh

I was so well taken care of at Lakewood Family Dental. From making my appointment, to creating a treatment plan, I felt prioritized and cared for. Dr. Yang explained exactly where all my cavities were and showed me the X-rays. One of the other staff carefully went over what my insurance would cover and what my options were. I will be going back and highly recommend! stars

Lakewood dental did a good job on my teeth. I’m keeping it clean. There was a young guy dentist and he’s a very polite and respectful guy. He has done a great job and will always go there because of his excellent job. The receptionist/staff are really nice too. I’m glad my husband found me this wonderful dentist to work on my teeth. stars

I had been dealing with extreme sensitivity for nearly 10 years on one side of my mouth due to gum recession. All other dentists just said to “manage” the pain, etc and really only ever said there are treatments but very expensive. I recently switched to Lakewood and on my first visit, the Doctor FIXED this issue that has caused pain and discomfort to anything cold or even air for 10 years. Cannot thank him enough and GREAT job!! stars

Michael Strong

Great experience here, the office staff was friendly and well versed; and got me in to see the dentist ASAP. The dentist and technicians have the utmost care for their patience and will even make you laugh a couple times. Which makes a new situation relaxed. Thank you to Lakewood Family Dental. stars
