This office is always not here I be having a appointment at 8am and no one is ever on time have to wait almost 30 minutes past my appointment I will definitely be looking for another dentist office this is ridiculous I was to told to arrive 15 minutes early for my appointment when the staff is not even here. Again sitting in the parking lot waiting seems an employee is in his car waiting to be let in the building.

My experiences with Dr. Chang and his staff are superb. His service is through and detail-oriented. The office opens on Saturday, I had to walk in for an urgent care as my primary provider wan't available and he fixed me well. Since then I've seen Dr. Chang two more times. He's a great dentist.

Our family of 6 have been going to Dr. Chang for 8 years now. Even if we live in Bothell, it's worth the drive to Renton to see Dr. Chang and all his staff. They are so warm and friendly! I doubt we'd find a better dentist!!

Amazing dentist! friendly staff, and a top notch Dentist! Dr Chang was recommended to me by a couple family members. (both of whom are Dentists as well) and I can see why! He knows his stuff and explains everything very well!
