Dr. Kevin H. Sakai grew up in Stockton, which is in northern California. He has one younger sister, Kimi. His family was always involved in the medical field. His mother is a pharmacist and his father is also a dentist. While growing up in Stockton, Dr. Sakais childhood centered around his involvement with the martial arts. He started karate when he was five, and this continued until college. As a youngster, the Sakai family traveled all over the country for karate tournaments.
After graduating from high school, it was time for Dr. Sakai to leave Stockton. He earned his B.S. at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). Growing very accustomed to southern Californias warm weather, he moved across to the other side of the city to attend dental school at the University of Southern California (USC). After earning his DDS degree, Dr. Sakai continued his education at Boston University in the area of pediatric dentistry.
It was in Boston, where Dr. Sakai spent the next two years focusing his training on children. It was here Dr. Sakai learned pediatric dentistry. This includes sedation techniques, behavior techniques as well as training with special needs children. It was here, where he also learned that he loved the RED SOX.
After finishing his schooling in 2004, it was time for Dr. Sakai to put his education to use. At this time, Dr. Sakai decided to relocate to the Seattle area. It was a good thing he did, because that is where he met his wife, Aleiah, and raised their son and daughter.
Dr. Sakai loves to travel with his family. If he is not traveling, he likes spending time with his family, friends, and pets watching movies and cooking together. He enjoys trying new foods and watching his favorite football team the Seahawks. GO Hawks!
Dr. Raymond Park received his bachelor in science from University of Wisconsin Madison. After having a great Midwest college experience, Dr. Park then continued on to receive his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the prestigious, ivy league Columbia University College of Dental Medicine. It was there that he discovered his passion caring for children while volunteering at Give Kids a Smile and Head Start Daycare Program. It provided a chance for him to interact with children who suffered from poor oral health and allowed him to realize the importance of early oral health intervention. Dr. Park became a true believer in educating families and ensuring children have a positive dental experience throughout their early years and beyond.
Dr. Park pursued and completed an additional two years of Pediatric Dentistry specialty training at the University of Rochester the Eastman Institute for Oral Health, where he treated a wide range of pediatric patients including those that were medically compromised.
In his free time, Dr. Park enjoys going to the Woodland Park Zoo and Seattle Aquarium with his lovely wife and 2 beautiful daughters. He is also avid sports fan of New York Giants and, of course, his alma mater, University of Wisconsin (GO GIANTS and BADGERS!). Dr. Park is also an enthusiastic foodie and would love to know any of your suggestions.
Dr. Misa Yoshioka grew up in the greater Seattle area and completed her undergraduate degree at the University of Washington (Go Huskies!). She headed down to sunny southern California to finish dental school at Western University of Health Sciences, where she graduated at the top of her class. She then completed a masters degree and two years of additional pediatric specialty training at Nationwide Childrens Hospital and the Ohio State University. She most loves helping anxious or apprehensive kids feel more at ease in the dental chair and celebrating with them in their accomplishments.

Excellent. We switched from another practice that I didn't love and was hoping to be happy here... I am! My almost 3 year old was treated with kindness and patience. The front desk was on the ball. We were in and out in 30 minutes. The waiting room/rooms are clean and inviting. I'm so glad I found this office!

They were amazing with my little guy on his first dentist appointment and the staff in beyond friendly. Definitely taking my other son here Updating, My youngest son (4years old) had to get some fillings done Aug. 31, while the staff we absolutely amazing, Dr.Max the anesthesiologist, TERRIFIED me son by slamming the mask on his face without even giving any warning or telling us what was going on. The first time he needed work they gave him a juice thing to drink and it went perfectly, I'm not sure why it was different this time. He had a bruise on his nose when we got home. I am definitely going to call and complain about this. It was completely unacceptable to handle it the way he did.

My four year old had her first Dental appointment ever (I know, I know) but they were SOO good with her! They walked her through each step and let her feel the tools on her hand before they ever had her open her mouth. The environment is non-threatening and the staff is so kind and helpful. We absolutely loved our experience and will make this our regular dentist for all four of our kids! They can also schedule appointments via text, which is incredibly helpful as a stay at home mom with lots of noisy little people around

It was our first visit - we've moved from a different dental office - and my child had a great time. Every single person was welcoming and helpful. They have service to children dialed in. The hygienist who worked with my child was so patient, gentle, and kind. Plus, the decor is adorable! It's like a sweet log cabin and the woodland murals are so fun. Dr. Sakai was fantastic. We're so glad we found this office.

The staff was very friendly and made sure any questions I had were answered, they called a few hours after my sons procedure to check on him and I would highly recommend them to any of my friends and family.

This place is adorable!! Who knew the dentist could be so fun?! My daughter had the best time for her first cleaning! The hygienist involved her the whole time and let her play with the magic "cleaning wand." Really sets her up for life for not being afraid of the dentist. Also, the Dentist we saw was very knowledgeable and was kind enough to answer questions I had about my other baby's teeth who wasn't there. We did have to wait about 30 min in the waiting room before being pulled back and I assume because of Covid they didn't have any toys out, but just bring your own in case you have to wait! But I'd say for a kids dentist office the wait was pretty minimal, and the visit itself super quick!

If I could give them a zero I would. We had be with them since 2017/2018. We received a letter stated they have missed multiple appointments ( 2 in 2018) which I called and rescheduled both times do to illness before the 24 hour mark. and 1 in 2021 do to illness (which I called that morning with a sick kiddo. But they have no records of,me callling??? IV called twice to speak with a Manager and get a different story and the run around about how the manger is never in or just stepped out. Waited on hold and had the Receptionist laugh and then send me to a random voice mail with no name? Still shocked I got treated like that!
