When you arrive at their location, be sure to go up to the second floor even though the directory lists it as first floor. I asked their front receptionist about this error and she didn't care to find out why it was wrong to avoid any unnecessary confusion for their patients. Hopefully, their office manager- Sahar, who’s working from home takes notice and gets it right. Dr. Lin was my Doctor and he was alright, I do appreciate his professionalism and his willingness to listen about my inquiry pertaining to TMJ diagnosis.
Regrettably I was referred to Dr. Nam Cho for my wisdom teeth extraction. I opted for the general anesthesia. I've never had any experience in wisdom teeth extraction before so I didn't know what to expect or prepare. The day of my appointment I arrived an hour early. I was hoping to get some information about what to expect from the procedure. Nope. He didn't explain anything about the process or the procedure. Instead Dr. Cho put a needle in my arm and put me to sleep. My husband later told me the whole process was ten minutes when the doctor came out to say I was done. I remember how the doctor rushed me in and out. There was no one in the waiting room. I felt like I was treated with such negligence and so coldly. He could have spent 5-10 minutes explaining what he was planning to do to my wisdom teeth and how I can be cautious about preventing dry sockets. Instead afterwards they wheelchaired me outside and gave a leaflet flyer to my husband to read on how to recover. I don't recommend this doctor to anyone.
I was referred to this office for a wisdom tooth extraction and I must say that everyone there was so professional, friendly and very helpful. Dr. Allen Huang was AWESOME. All of the nurses were so very nice.
Dr. Cho was extremely wonderful and professional. He was able to calm me during the entire procedure (I have a tendency to be nervous). The nurses were A+ also. Front desk people were all friendly and nice-looking :)
After PPO insurance it was about $150 for two teeth. I had local anesthesia.
I had a better recovery timeline than when I had my wisdom teeth (left side) removed in China. So USA 🇺🇸 No. 1 LOL 😂

Wow, what a great oral surgeon! I came here because I was referred by Dr. Jack Von Bulow. I cracked my back molar, and needed it to get extracted. I wanted to go to Smilecare in Rosemead, but after reading all the terrible reviews for that place, I decided to come to Yelp, and read reviews for a dentist in my area. I am soooo glad that I did!!
Normally I go to cheap dentists, but after reading some of the horror stories, I decided to go with a better dentist, and not skimp on my mouth.
I went to their office, they gave me a quick appointment (because I was in pain) and they confirmed that I needed to have it pulled. I am wimpy, so I had them put me under. Within an hour, I was awake again, and tooth was extracted, with minimal swelling to my face. It is now the next day, and the area is maybe 5% tender, with NO swelling (yay! I don't look beat up!! ha ha!). I am utterly pleased with this oral surgeon, he has a great bedside manner and highly recommend him to anyone!!
