Burgundy E.

What a amazing experience all around. I brought my partner in for a same day emergency extraction for his wisdom tooth, he was able to be the the dentist chair within an hour of calling. The care, concern and level of compassion in unmatched. A big thank you to the entire staff. We will see you again on future appointments.

Carol D.

We've been patients of Dr. You and Dr. Chan since my son was in kindergarten - now a County employee. Everyone on the staff is great. I had one bad experience with a dentist referred by my insurance co. - I'd NEVER see a dentist again without a personal referral. Consider this mine to you -- Laguna West is an excellent choice!

Taina B.

Fantastic experience from scheduling my first appointment, through my care! Dr. Sanghvi was professional, very friendly and easy to partner with regarding my care. The staff was equally professional and friendly and responded quickly to my questions and processing my insurance. I would highly recommend Laguna West Dental Care.

Claudia C.

I had a fantastic experience at Laguna West Dental today! The staff, from the receptionist to the hygienist and doctor, were all incredibly kind and attentive. They continuously checked on my comfort throughout the appointment, which made a big difference. I'm very happy with my dental care and highly recommend Laguna West Dental!

Kathy T.

I have such a fear of dental work (had a horrible dentist as a child who felt I did not need any numbing before most drilling) my whole life. But everyone here is so gentle so encouraging to report pain. I don't feel as much fear as I used to....thank you Dr Sanghvi and all your associates including the front desk!!!!!!

Christine P.

Very accommodating team of professionals. We were immediately greeted by the staff, and upon receiving the treatment for my daughter, the hygienist to the Doctor herself was warm, friendly, compassionate, knowledgeable and professional. This dental office is also very clean! We are excited to continue treatments here for years to come.
