10 stars for Dr. Tran. Why? I have every reason to justify 10 stars.I got a cracked tooth and ended up in a dental emergency, where another doctor (in a well-reputed endodontic clinic) temporarily filled the tooth with pain killer and antibiotics. This doctor refused to do a root canal because he was FORCING me to get IV sedation (to make $800) besides the actual procedure ($339), and thats after meeting the deductible of excellent dental insurance. I went to another doctor in Fremont, and she booked 3 patients simultaneously, charged $110 just for consultation and $1100 for a root canal. Another bad experience! These clinics are rated 5-star on google; then, I decided to go for another endodontic who wont charge me for consultation at least. And this is how I found Dr. Tran.I visited him yesterday. The clinic was super clean, and there was no one in the clinic but just me, the receptionist, and Dr. Tran (this shows how well they manage their time during Covid). While I was filling forms, the receptionist called my insurance for the charges. Dr. Tran advised me to get a root canal done the same day, and it would cost me about $249 after insurance. Throughout the procedure, I was so relaxed—no rubber thing on my mouth to choke me. Super kind doctor!! I was numbed gradually, and I did not feel ANY PAIN AT ALL!. It took one and a half hours. I took just two painkillers afterward, but I dont think I need that anymore because he did everything well.Dr. Tran cared about me as a patient. I didnt feel rushed at any point. Same procedure, but every dentist was charging me different prices. Dr. Tran put his patients comfort as his priority without draining me financially and emotionally. My experience couldnt get any better.
