I've been going to this dental office for years although admittedly took some time off during Covid. Jetta cleaned my teeth today and I think it is by far the gentlest and most perfect teeth cleaning I have ever had. She cleaned parts of my teeth I didn't even think she could. She is the best! You should probably go there immediately. Also, I love Dr. Chew - she is so kind, gentle and generally awesome. During this last visit, I was examined by Dr. Poulose and she was super lovely too. My teeth and I are very happy.

Poor communication and unprofessional business that I have never experienced in the peninsula for dental. They had scheduled an appointment without verifying the insurance. At the end, I had to pay out of my pocket and they were chasing the payment without explanation or sending the statement to me. The weird thing was that I had to make a prepayment then they would claim to the insurance. Recently, i called insurance and found out that I was been overcharged for a few services that I had done there.

Great communication between office and patient in regards to insurance and payments. Easy to reach office over the phone or email. The dentists and dental hygienists are personable and professional. I have been to a lot of dentists over the years, but I trust them the most.

My wife and I have been going to Nest for years and I still enjoy visiting them as much now as I did from day one. The office environment is upscale and modern. The office is well lit and very clean. The front desk staff always greets me with a smile and friendly hello. The dentist's are very compassionate and it is clear they genuinely care about their patient's. The hygienist's and doctor's are well educated and explain the medical decision making process and treatment plans well. I have complete trust that my best interest's are in mind and I feel valued as a long-time customer. I highly recommend Nest Dental!

Very lucky to have found this clinic! Every staff member was kind, attentive, and respectful. As for COVID19 Safety - the office was extremely clean, sanitary, everyone was wearing masks and taking proper precautions.

I recently moved to the area and needed to find a dentist as I was well overdue because of the pandemic. The building is older but the office is kept modern and clean. I first came in for a cleaning which, other than the bad news of needing fillings, went well. I booked an appointment a few weeks later to take care of the fillings. I had never had a cavity so I was nervous but the staff was incredibly kind and frequently checked in how I was doing. The fillings went perfectly, honestly as painless as a cleaning. Dr. Prethi Poulose was my doctor and she is very kind and professional. I will be returning for my next cleaning.

I've had only great experiences here over the last 5+ years. The office is always clean, and the staff is friendly and super efficient. The advances in dentistry technology have really made dental work so much less painful and so much faster.

Last night a toothache was killing me. I contacted Nest Dental. Today, first thing in the morning I had a virtual dental appointment through FaceTime. Dr. Chiu was very thoroughly and carefully looking my gums. Then she gave me a prescription. My pain is not totally gone, but I was able to eat and rest, the swollenness is diminishing and I feel happy and confident that on our next appointment on Friday, I'll be much better. Thank you Dr. Chiu!!!

Just had a filling done here. It was by far the best experience I've had. Really quick and pain free. Dr. Chew did an amazing job! Would highly recommend.

My mom and I have been going to Dr. Chew for years, and she is exceptional. My visits have always been smooth and painless (or as painless as possible, given that you're paying for someone to drill holes in your teeth). I've never had a medical professional be as warm, competent, and unwavering in quality as Dr. Chew, and I'd be happy to continue coming to Nest Dental in the future.

I moved out of state a couple years ago but make sure that when I return to the Bay Area for visits, I schedule my check-ups at Nest Dental. I've been a patient of Dr. Chew's for several years now, and It's worth it to me to travel 800 miles to continue to see her and the excellent staff there. Can't imagine going to another dentist.
