Dr. Chang was my childhood dentist from the early 90s-mid 2000s. After many years of braces, and a bad dental experience later in life, I started experiencing high anxiety over visiting the dentist, so I just avoided going. Recently I decided it was finally time to work on this anxiety and give my teeth the love health they deserve! I remembered Dr. Chang being gentle and educational, so I booked an appointment with her office. The gal at the front desk, Heather, was lovely and very communicative. Dr. Chang greeted me when I arrived, and after chatting a bit remembered me and my family! She also

Dr. Chang and her staff make for an exceptional dentistry. They are always upbeat, courteous, efficient and accommodating. Through the pandemic, Dr. Chang made every possible effort to keep her staff and patients in good health, and communicated her ongoing efforts via email. A dental visit seems always to be accompanied by a bit of stress, but we know we are in the very best hands with Dr. May Chang.

Been going to Dr. Chang for a couple years now after a decent lapse in dental care. While taking care of deferred maintenance on your teeth isn't always the most fun one can have, Dr. Chang has exhibited excellent craftsmanship in all the work she has performed on my teeth. In addition, the dental hygienist, assistant, and front office staff are competent, friendly and helpful and they have all done a great job managing the pandemic over the last year.

Dr. Chang and Dr. Mistry have a fantastic dental practice. They are thorough, efficient and highly skilled. I feel my dental needs (routine and more complex) are in great hands with Dr. Chang and her team and I would recommend the practice to all friends and family. Throughout the pandemic they provided regular updates on their safety practices through email and when attending appointments the staff made sure to reiterate how these precautions would affect my visit. I always felt safe.
The staff is experienced and competent, friendly and supportive, even remembering the type of music that I like

Having recently moved to Portland, I am delighted to have discovered this marvelous office. Dr Chang and her staff are not only clearly skilled and but warm and compassionate as well. The office itself is a visual treat as well, sunny, lots of light and windows and plants everywhere. This is a friendly as well as a highly professional office; I consider myself fortunate to have found Dr. Chang and her office -- and in the middle of a pandemic!

I love this dental office! The staff is exceptional: professional, friendly, knowledgeable, informed -which is exactly why I feel such a sense of ease with them. And the results of the work they do is exceptional as well. I came to this office after a repair on a chipped front tooth cracked off after 3 months. Dr. Mistry fixed it, he was warm and professional and I'm confident this repair will last for a good long while.
I highly recommend Dr, Chang's office to anyone seeking a fantastic dental office.
Oh, and I got a free Oral B electric toothbrush!

As a retired physician I am very aware and appreciative of the attention to detail that I have found in Dr. May Chang's practice. My fist encounter with the practice was an emergency visit after my previous dentist had retired. The staff was very responsive to my dilemma, and Dr. Chang fit me into her schedule that day, got me started on antibiotics and referred me to an endodontist. On my first scheduled visit I was very impressed by Dr. Chang's hands on training in proper oral hygiene, the basis of oral health. Dr. Chang's website has a lot of very useful information, including

I've been going to Dr. Chang for about 12 years now and thought I'd write a review now because of how the practice has managed the pandemic. They've kept us up-to-date with a monthly newsletter throughout, and during a recent cleaning, I had a chance to experience firsthand the measures they're taking to protect the safety of both patient and practitioner.
Reading through the other reviews before writing my own, I had to laugh at the similarities between my experience and that of Lars S (9/14). I too came to Dr. Chang on the recommendation of my former dentist, who knew her

The whole staff went above and beyond to take safety and precaution measures given the pandemic. The place felt very clean, welcoming, and was beautiful!
I had a great cleaning experience, and Dr. Mystery was very kind and knowledgeable.
The staff was also helpful and understanding of what procedures and costs would be in reviewing and advising what was necessary based on my check up. I highly recommend this office to others!

Although Covid19 presents new challenges for dental visits, Dr. Chang and her team stepped up safety protocols thoroughly and efficiently to make the experience very comfortable. My friendly hygienist greeted me at the door, then took my temperature and followed with the Covid19 risk questions. She explained the new venting systems in place, which remove the aerosols created during cleaning procedures. It took a minute or so to become accustomed to the new sounds and feel of them as she examined, cleaned, and polished my teeth. (It was pleasant to admire the lovely garden while being attended to

Dr. Chang has been our family dentist for almost 20 years from the time our 3 boys were toddlers till today now that they are full-grown adults. She and her staff offer the highest quality of care with great attention to the individual's needs. We drive a long distance to her office but it is well worth the trouble. She is awesome!

This is a very organized dental practice. I went in to schedule an appointment before my insurance ended and they were able to squeeze me in. Furthermore my teeth cleaning was not done with power tools. I was able to have the lower two quadrants on the very next day. My last dentist took a couple months to go from the top two quadrants to the bottom two.
Debra, the insurance guru was on the phone instantly to receive approval from insurance company. There were no surprises after services. Sadly Dr Chang was my first dentist to explain, show and test my toothbrushing and flossing skills

After recently moving to NE Portland from Milwaukie, I needed a new dentist but procrastinated for some time because of my dental-phobic issues...I really wanted someone who would just let me get my teeth cleaned and leave me alone, but figured that wouldn't happen given the delayed maintenance work that I knew would need to be done. I finally settled on Dr. May Chang due to her positive recommendations and made an initial appt. I think that the staff could see me coming a mile away - another one of THOSE patients who hate going to the dentist and want to refuse everything and has no pain

I was new to Portland and needed to find a dentist. After browsing through Yelp, etc. I made an appointment with Dr. Chang. (Admittedly, the location helped--I live about a mile from her office.) Apart from one technical glitch early on--I filled out a form on her website, asking to be contacted for an appointment, and never heard back--my experience with Dr. Chang's office has been superb.
The office is easy to find and very nice--bright, cheerful, and clean. Everyone from the receptionist to Dr. Chang herself is exceptionally pleasant and helpful. And Dr. Chang clearly cares about her

After having a number of fillings throughout childhood, I needed a lot of dental work. Dr Chang thoroughly and meticulously replaced the worn out fillings with seamless gold crowns. She also prepped and placed an implant that gave me the best smile I've ever had!
For quality dental work, I doubt you can find better.

Dr. Chang is an excellent dentist. I was referred to her when I moved here 10 years ago, by my dentist in another city, who had gone to school with her at UCSF (one of the top schools in the world!). SInce then she has taken excellent care of my family's teeth. What I like about her:
1. She and her staff are kind, attentive, prompt, caring and helpful.
2. Dr Chang is excellent at diagnosing and has great technical skills. My friend who is a dentist in San Francisco looked at an inlay she did for me and was very impressed with her work.
3. She does not do unnecessary X-rays

For a dentist, doctor, or any other professional your judgement should not be based on what I or anybody else in the Internet peanut gallery has to say. Instead, speak with other dentists in Portland. Time and time again they will tell you that May Chang is the best in the city.
I unfortunately had some teeth issues and was referred to a number of specialists around town. Each praised the quality of May's work, her professionalism, and her skill.
I've been going to her forever. Friendly, accommodating, and above all....she is the best in her field.
