Fantastic experience! Had two cavities filled - Doctor Chen was super gentle, hygienist and doctor did a lot to ease my nerves (they were my first cavities and I was very anxious). The secretary was also very sweet and reassuring. Basically, everyone there is amazing, and I now love my dentist.

Cal Sanik

My wife and I both had fantastic experiences at Dr. Chen's office. The whole staff was friendly and professional, and we felt very well taken care of. I was impressed by the use of modern digital imaging (for both x-rays, and then visual cameras, which were helpful to show me directly what's going on and help explain things), and got excellent thorough explanations and had lots of opportunities to ask questions and share any concerns. I'd definitely recommend them.

Lowell Meyer

Dr. Chen is a great dentist with the loveliest manner. She's extremely compassionate and helps you understand what is wrong and how she'll fix it with minimal pain and a quick recovery. She doesn't push for whitenings, but definitely for night mouthguards--though, I do think she has good intentions when offering them. My 8 yr old even loves going to the dentist. Her staff is equally lovely and it's a genuinely nice experience.

I’m always happy with my visit to Pine Lake Family Dentistry. The best!
Today I was sitting in the waiting room, Doctor Chen walked in and greeted me and the other two patients by name.

Dr. Chen and her team are the best! They are wonderful with kids; my son won't let anyone clean his teeth. They do a really good job at communicating costs and never push unnecessary procedures. I recommend Dr. Chen to all our friends and family!
