Meyerhoff Undergraduate Excellence Award for Leadership, Service and Scholarship.

Dr. Chan has a great passion in both learning and teaching, striving for excellence in his practice of dentistry. He is a graduate of the prestigious Kois Center in Seattle, WA, where doctors from worldwide go to receive their post-doctoral training on the latest, scientific evidence-based advancements in knowledge and technology on aesthetic and restorative dentistry.

Being dedicated to provide the best quality care to his patients, Dr. Chan has attended averaging over 180 hours of continuous education every year for the last 10 years, which is nearly 10 times the state basic requirement for practicing dentists.

Since I was very young I've struggled with dental hygiene and have had several different dentist's over the years that left me anxious and even terrified of visiting another after experienceing many painful visits. The day that I went into one dental care to meet the Dr and go over the state of my teeth and put together a treatment plan everything changed in the way that I view dental work this is absolutely the most caring and detail oriented facility I have had the pleasure of dealing with and the work they have done with me has completely changed my smile and day to day life I would recommend them to anybody that has ever had a negative experience with a dental hygienist because they are hands down the best team I've had the pleasure of working with.

I have been going to Dentist for 65 years, This was the most Complete Exam, Cleaning and Consultation that I have ever received!! The Exam was extremely thorough, the cleaning was better and more complete than any I have ever received in the past. Dr Chan explained everything in detail and I felt very confident in his ability.Best

Dr. Chan and the crews are great. I went here for about 3 years now thru a referred of a friend at work. Dr. Chan is very patience and very careful on his work. Marcie is one of the best hygienist that I have for years (I like it soft on my teeth). Barbara is a very friendly front desk, and Debbie is a careful and friendly dental assistance. I highly recommended.... (thumps up!!)

I was happy with my previous dentist until she left her practice, so I looked for a new one. Dr. Chan came highly recommended so I thought I'd give it a shot. Wow, what a difference! I've had one cleaning and several filling appts so far. The hygenist is the most meticulous person I've ever met. She spent almost an hour carefully cleaning every tooth. I've never had one that spent more than 20-30 minutes max on cleaning. The different was amazing. Then Dr. Chan took digital photos of my problem areas and carefully explained what needed to be done and what to prioritize. He is never pushy and doesn't try to sell extra unnecessary procedures unlike some other dentists. He also gave me great recommendations on better protecting my gum and enamel. The 2 fillings I've had with Dr. Chan were professionally done and I've had no problems with them. Like his hygenist, he is so careful almost to a fault about getting everything right. If you're looking for a dentist you can truly trust, look no further.
