Care Philosophy
One of the things Dr. Joo enjoys most about being a dentist is getting to know his patients and building trust and life-long relationships. He loves educating patients about the importance of oral health and how it affects their overall health and well-being. Dr. Joo considers the appreciation and acknowledgment from patients for the quality of work they received to be one of the most rewarding aspects of his job.
When he's not helping patients maintain their oral health, Dr. Joo can be found snowboarding, golfing, or watching basketball.
As a new patient to this dental surgery, my initial experience was nothing short of a wonderful experience. The staff there were friendly and acted professionally right from the reception to the dentist. The dentist (Dr. Li Yang) explained the results of the X-ray with me and suggested the options available in my circumstances in a highly professional manner. Although my initial visit was for my annual check-up and teeth cleaning, I was very satisfied with their thorough services. With the confidence established during my first visit, I will definitely try their other services in the future and that will be subject to another review.
