    Dr. Chan has been our family dentist for over 35 yrs. With his retirement in the future, I has to find another dentist. The dental office I was referred to by my dental insurance was awful. I spent over $1800 for a toothache & teeth cleaning with a recommendation to schedule extraction of my molar with their Oral Surgeon for another $900. I asked for a second opinion from Dr. Chan of Smilehaven in La Mesa. Dr. Chan was able to fit me with a crown so my molar did not need to be extracted. Excellent dental service.

    This was the best dentist experience I've ever had. They really cared about helping making it more comfortable and Dr Chan cares about your whole well being. They also did a good job of communicating and getting me in and out.

    Very informative on holistic care of the mouth. I haven't had a cleaning done in a long time. So it was a very thorough cleaning and I feel great.

    I don’t going to the dentist for a few reasons. The main one being individuals with heavy hands. The drs touch was gentle and light. He was also very communicative on getting involved with my insurance to help cover a costly procedure. 5 stars from me!

    Very knowledgeable doctor and the staff are great. First, they don't pressure you to buy other services, I got a couple recommendations and was asked if I wish to make an appointment or buy the recommended teeth care but no pressure. My teeth needed lots of help and he did a great job.
