I've been seeing Dr. Wong for the past 25 years; ever since I was first taken there by my mother when I was 5 years old. In the years since, he has become a part of my family as many of my family members now see him for care as well. In the past 25 years, I have at times sought treatment from other dentists due to the fact that my dental insurance did not have Dr. Wong in their network and so I could avoid a copay. Those were mistakes on my part since the other dentists with their flashy gadgets, dvds, and color cameras in my mouth often just found reasons why I was in need of a bridge, crown, or other treatment that would have cost me hundreds of dollars even after insurance kicked in. Upon having returning to Dr. Wong for a second opinion, he told me the truth; that I did not need any of those treatments.
Just like a everyone needs a good mechanic who will not rip you off by recommending needless fixes, everyone also needs a dentist who won't treat your mouth like a used car by recommending unnecessary and painful treatments to make payments on their Jaguars.
In the end, I have stuck with Dr. Wong despite at times my dental insurance network at times not including him, but the negligible copay I pay out of pocket is well worth his years of sensible, down to earth, and HONEST care.
