Orthodontist

Dr. Sherri Chong

────

After many years in Seattle and Arizona, I came back home in 2014. I love Hawaii and feel grateful to care for the people in my community..

As an Orthodontist, I love seeing the transformation of one’s smile, function, and confidence. I recall a patient who always wanted to straighten her teeth but could not afford it. Her crooked teeth prevented her from being able to eat comfortably, because the top and bottom teeth did not touch when she chewed. On the day her treatment was finished, she told me I had changed her life and felt so overjoyed. <and could eat her favorite food? or what was the first thing she wanted to eat?

When not in the office, I enjoy trying new recipes and eating – I love Hawaiian food, sushi as well as Italian and Peruvian cuisine. I also stay active by running and attending fitness classes.

Dr. Lee is a great listener and always provides helpful advice on dental care. I like the fact that he’s down-to-earth and addresses my concerns as a parent. From my observation, my son had a pleasant experience and he seemed relaxed during our recent visit. He was especially happy to hear he doesn’t have any cavities! I would highly recommend this office to all of my family members and friends.

I had some gum line issues fixed today. Everyone was professional and quick. The doctor and staff worked well as a team. Doctor kept me informed before every move so there were no surprises. Happy with the results.

Adam Z, my hygienist, was so personable and professional. I am always surprised at his ability to recall detail from our previous visits. It really makes me feel remembered and valued as a patient. When I arrived for my appointment today, the team at the front had already checked me in, and everybody was ready for me. I didn’t have to wait, and the service was quick and thorough. When it came time to go, again, everything was already squared away for me, all I had to do was sign, and say my farewells.I really appreciate this team and I always look forward to my appointments here.10/10 would recommend.

It was very informative. I had a new hygienist for this cleaning, both are very pleasant and informational. The doctor was just as informative and pleasant to work with.

I had a great experience with my braces treatment. The entire team was kind, professional, and always made me feel comfortable during every appointment. They explained each step of the process clearly and were patient whenever I had questions.My teeth look so much better now, and I’m really happy with the results. The staff was friendly, appointments were well organized, and the whole treatment went smoothly from start to finish.Thank you, Dr. Shong, for giving me a beautiful smile! I’m so happy with the results of my braces treatment. You and your team were always kind, professional, and made every visit a great experience.

Long wait time but this is understandable since we don’t have a lot of keiki dentist. Once you Dr visits it’s fast and easy.

The Dental Assistant that was helping my Dentist was not very nice and she rushed thru with my care. But my Dentist came in and had to help due to the incompetence of the dental assistant. And when I voiced my request of not wanting the first dental assistant to care for me, she blurted out “Well this kind of stuff happens all the time” which I feel was unprofessional and disrespectful to me and my mom. So the other Dental Assistant Britney filled in and helped my dentist make it better and were able to fix the problem that the first dental assistant caused my Invisalign to get stuck onto my teeth. From now on I want to request Britney to be the Dental Assistant for my upcoming visits. And the receptionists are always nice and helpful. Thank you to my Dentist and Britney for another great visit.

I love bringing my kids to this dentist office. The hygienists are always so nice, the Dr. is busy, but he never seems too busy to be kind, to care about the kids and he has a gentle disposition.

The staff were very welcoming when going to see the dentist is scary. It’s not my favorite place to go to. The dentist that did my procedures was great. Very efficient and did a really great job. Also the hygienist, Adam, always does a great job. I actually enjoy going in to see him. Very knowledgeable and gives great reminders on what to do to keep my teeth and gums healthy.

My daughter's hygienist, Adam, is spectacular. My daughter has never expressed any level of comfort at the dentist, but she came out smiling and so happy because he was just fantastic with her. Introduced himself warmly and kindly to me as well. We've had an overall great experience at the Waiakea office. So grateful for them!

Dr. Lee took the time to thoroughly examine our son, who has autism. He was patient and understanding of our family’s needs. Their office was able to schedule him urgently because of a loose tooth.

Just Giving 5 stars so EVERYONE CAN SEE MY REVIEW..please continue to read..I would give this place 0 stars, if I could. DO NOT … I repeat.. DO NOT BRING YOUR BABIES HERE ! Dr.Coy traumatized my baby. He’s the worst dentist to have working on your babies mouths. I haven’t visited since my son was about 4-5, it was the FIRST AND LAST time I took him there.. he’s 12 now.. I have a video that I recorded the day (I CANNOT for the life of me, bring myself to watch the video, even 6-7 years later). The way my son screamed in his chair. SMFH!. Piss me off! This dude SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO PRACTICE ANYMORE!!and what makes it worse is IM NOT THE ONLY PARENT WITH A STORY LIKE THIS, THAT CAME FROM THIS DENIST.If you love your children… please find another dentist and DO NOT TAKE THEM HERE.
