Dr. Young was not only kind and compassionate, he was non judgemental and down to earth. Dr. Young encouraged me to share not only how my teeth felt but how I was feeling in life and asked how I was fairing in any struggles that I may be having. Dr. Young made me feel like family.

Dr Young provided incredibly thorough care and was helped educate me to take better at home care as well! Will definitely be going back to see him again.

Review what condition I currently had and he described how to remedy it.

Great experience. Dr Russell explained every single step of the process and was really nice during the whole appointment. Definitely recommended

The practice was timely, informative, and thorough.

So kind and helpful! He really treats you like a friend and gives great advice. I would recommend this practice to anybody.

Very detailed oriented. Likes to talk about a dental plan that with surgical and non surgical options. He understood I had limited resources and telling what needs to be with a small budget and what can be upgraded later if the opportunity comes in the future.

I loved the way his office his office took me right in. He introduced himself and we started on a plan to fix my dental problems. His professional demeanor was excellent. Easy to talk to and he explained everything step by step. I recommend Dr. Young to anyone looking for a friendly professional environment where you dental needs are met.

Great communicator, detail oriented.

Very nice safe and friendly.

Great guy, really knows dentistry.

All The staff was really nice and professional. Dr. Kim was very good too, she was very patient and my cleaning was not painful at all.

Everyone in the office was very pleasant and friendly. The Dentist who saw me made me feel very comfortable with everything that she was about to do which made me feel like I was in good hands. Theu have modern and new equipment and the place seemed very fresh and clean. Parking might be hard to find, but that wouldn't stop me from returning to an outstanding clinic.

Extremely friendly and talked me through every detail of every step during my visit. Part of his process includes taking digital photographs to support X-ray images which I find very helpful when explaining things. Unlike other dentists I have experienced in the past, he will analyze each image by your side one by one. He also gave me honest recommendations for potential next steps on operations/ care.

Great at explaining things, the pros & cons. I was Educated on all options and costs and time lines needed for any additional work.

Really insightful and detailed explanations on everything. An enjoyable experience.

People very nice. First time dentist gave a plan of action on how she was going to fix my teeth issue along with estimate cost since I was on SSDI. I prioritize with the dentist what could I afford since capping a tooth was too expensive so was there another option and I would make the final decision.

The Doctor is so kind and nice. They treated me with respect and kindness. I would say they are not the spa-like experience, they don't have TV's and fancy equipment, but they are nice and knowledgable.

The 2 (!) hygienists were absolutely wonderful, patient, careful, and attentive. It was helpful to see photos of my teeth as they explained details to me.

Very friendly staffs, overall was a great experience. Definitely schedule another dental visit.

I only met him briefly but the assistants were wonderful and very good. Would return.

I hadn't been to the dentist in 3-4 years and was super nervous, but Dr. Russell Young make me feel so comfortable. He was personal and thorough, and honestly made my appointment enjoyable. Will definitely be coming back!

I was very pleased with my visit. Dr Young was very kind and did a great job educating me on dental care. I was very satisfied overall.

Fast, friendly, transparent

Very friendly doctor. Kept me at ease all throughout. Informed me of all aspects of the procedure, what else is needed, and the costs involved. Had a great experience, all in all.

Great experience. Dr. Young is friendly and professional. The experience was fantastic! I've been to several great dentists but feel that Dr. Young went the extra mile in informing me of my options, his thoughts, and how to take good care of my dental health. I never felt that I was in the dark and feel better equipped to maintain my oral hygiene. In general it seems to me that he operates with a high sense of integrity which I appreciate. I'd say it's often hard for patients to make accurate assessments of their dentists (After all, they weren't the ones that went to dental school or have any clinical experience), but all in all I felt very comfortable leaving my dental health in the hands of Dr. Young.

Dr. Young is a fun guy and a great doctor. He did a thorough assessment, and he took the time to explain everything as he went along. His staff was pleasant and knowledgable.

They were very informative and did their best to make the experience as pain free as they could.which isn't an easy feat with me because I have extensive problems with my grill.i would recommend them to anyone.

Dr. Young is an amazing dentist! He was very kind, personable and skilled. He helped me navigate my insurance plan, and provided excellent dental care. I will be returning next week!

Dr. Young was great. He was really personable and took the time to explain what he was doing and seeing during our check-up and how to then design my oral care routine. He also talked through how insurance factors into everything we were discussing and was transparent throughout our conversation. Going to the dentist is not fun, but Dr. Young was easy to trust and work with and make the visit very pleasant.
