I would highly recommend Dr. Fong! ! It had been a long time since I been to the dentist office. This was due to Covid. Yvonne is Awesome and helped me through all my anxiety and fears! I'm glad that I was able to come back and visit Dr. Fong. I really missed coming here as he is the only dentist that is patient enough to deal with someone like me who suffers from dealing with anxiety. Dr. Fong is more than gentle, he is compassionate explained the procedure to you and calms you down during the process. I've had a lot of dental work done here throughout the years and will continue to

Dr. Fong is the best! He really takes his time to explain everything to you and does his best to make you feel comfortable. His receptionist Mary is so sweet and patient and his hygienist is a lot of fun. Her banter with Dr. Fong makes me laugh. They act like old married people (but they aren't old or married to each other LOL).

I've had to have a lot of work done. Dr. Fong is the only dentist that doesn't hurt me when giving the novocaine shots.

If you are looking for a new dentist definitely check them out!

I am so happy to see Dr. Fong today. I haven't seen him in 15 years, because we moved (location). I never forget the first time I went to his office (15 years ago), when he saw my crown was not perfectly fitted in my tooth (it was done by other dentist) Dr. Fong said let's fix that and he did, that crown lasted me 13 years, I would not even want to replaced it but the dentist that I was seeing said because it's old and it's time for new one. Dr. Fong is the best dentist I've seen. He is very thoroughly, very gentle and caring to his patient (me) . I'm very happy patient

I greatly enjoyed the atmosphere of this office. Everyone was professional, yet jovial. Dr Fong spent a LONG time explaining various things to me, about teeth/ gums/jaws in general, as well as how they specifically applied to me. In addition, he was equally as thorough when he examined me. Not only is he a great educator, but he is an excellent practitioner and advocate. He found 8 areas in my mouth that needed to be addressed that my previous dentist overlooked. He helped me recover the cost of a horrible crown from my previous dentist, so that he could give me a gorgeous one in one visit...and

TL;DR: The best dentist I've ever had, who cares about your teeth and has an excellent staff. I went from being embarrassed to smile to being able to smile again!

Longer Version: Dentist reviews have to be one of the hardest to write. On one hand, you need to be able to express how truly wonderful a dentist is, on the other, you don't want people to know how messed up your teeth are.

Dr. Fong is fantastic. His attention to detail and wonderful staff make this place a true hidden treasure.

I have been to many dentist. Ugly offices, beautiful offices, and everything in between. Dr.

Dr. Gary Fong is the guy to see if you want the job done the right way! I spent all year searching for a dentist thAt could fix my peg laterals since I hated them that much and I was lucky enough to come across his practice not to far from where I lived in Hayward. Upon my visit I was naturally a bit skeptical about getting fake teeth in the front of my mouth, fearing that they would actually look"fake". That fear suddenly came to an ease after he explained precisely how the procedure would work and showed me actual pics of his work. He work was good and from there I was confident he

I have been a patient of Dr.Fongs for over 10 years. He has taken great care of myself and my family. He is very gentle and is so knowledgeable. His staff is amazing too! Mary is always so happy and helpful. Alita is always so cheerful and seems like she really loves her job. And Becky has been keeping my pearly whites sparkling for years now! She is so amazing and is very delicate plus she's hilarious! Being a patient of Advanced Dentristy has given me the smile and little dental family I've always dreamed of. Thank you all!

I went to Dr. Fong for about 20 years. He's a nice guy, but doesn't stand behind his past dentistry work. The front desk/accounting is for all intents & purposes non-existent. They will offer payment plans, which is nice, but don't seem to look at possible cost savings to the patient by maximizing the insurance usage. For instance, I had work done at the end of the year that totally could have waited until the beginning of the next year, when I would have replenished insurance coverage. This had caused me to be out of pocket by thousands of dollars over the years.

Dr. Fong and his staff are wonderful. I tend to experience anxiety when going to the dentist, but I have not had that same negative feeling since I started coming here and I have been coming for about 3 years now. Ms. Arthur-Seed, the hygienist, is amazing! If you are looking for good dental services, I would highly recommend trying them out.

My daughter and I both love going to Dr. Fong. He and his wonderful staff take great care of us and I always leave laughing, they are so much fun. Sounds weird, huh, liking a dentist visit so much but these people are great. I have been going to him for 20+ years and still enjoy going.

I take my 6 children ages 2-15 to see Dr Fong. He is very friendly and thorough. The staff is wonderful as well. I was able to get 2-3 of my kids scheduled at the same time, and that is important with my busy schedule. Maria at the front desk is wonderful. She has even called me several times to see if I wanted an earlier appointment if someone else had canceled. She is very friendly and personable. My nine-year-old, who used to be very afraid of the dentist, was very relaxed and comfortable during his baby root canal. I will definitely be going back to Dr. Fong for many years to come.

Came in on a $35 tooth cleaning promo, I had a super legit dentist (Nice Teeth San Leandro) but lost my insurance and had recently (within two years) had gotten all neccessary work done and was in perfect health. I went to Gary Fong and he told me he had some new laser cavity detector and his diagnosis with his "special machine" showed I needed 8 cavities he gave me a quote of $2k to fix and that his special laser machine could repair my cavities without drilling, I didn't have the money at the time (1 year ago), but as time passed I saved up some money to get my work done.

After years of trying to find a dentist that could provide me with my intense dental needs I found Dr. Gary Fong. I love Dr. Fong and his dentistry because they make me feel comfortable and they are VERY friendly and caring. I love that Dr. Fong attends to any need you have when it comes to dentistry. If I need a root canal or even a tooth pulled or a cleaning, he does everything at his office instead of referring me to a specialist like most dentist do. He truly cares about his patients. I would recommend Dr. Gary Fong DDS to anyone and I will continue to go to his dentistry because they are true

Dr Fong is amazing!! I have been going to him for roughly 8 years. He has always been extremely thorough in his work as well as his explanations of what needs to be done and why. Due to Dr. Fong's focused attention to each of his patients, my wife and I feel like we have a great relationship with him. It makes it much easier going to the dentist. :)
From cleanings, to caps, to last minute dental needs, I have always been able to contact the office when needed. I get emails, text messages, and phone calls reminding me about my appointments.
To my regret, I once went to another dentist in the area

You do not want to use this dentist for root canals!!!
Dr. Fong did two root canals for me that I paid cash for, over $4000. In less than 10 years, I have had one pulled and the other rebuilt by an endodontist. The endodontist told me she found another root that Dr Fong missed completely and that it was the reason for my infection. Please consider using an endodontist if you need a root canal. Dentists do not have the proper schooling and their root canals are more likely to go bad.

I have lived my life always hating the dentist... after a 10 year hiatus... I was forced back in "the chair" do to tooth pain... After my latest experience, I will have to say, I have no fear of the dentist and have my dental health back on schedule. I have been going to Doctor Fong's office for over a year now and have found "My" Dentist. From someone who went in with a lot of things wrong. From start to finish I never had any pain and always felt comfortable, even during shots and a root canal. Doctor Fong and his staff are caring, thoughtful and professional. I cannot

I can't thank Dr Fong enough for giving me my smile back! He is different from any dentist that I've been to. Not only does he do great work and is gentle but he explains to you exactly what's going on and why you need it. Other dentists just say, "ok, you need a root canal, let's go!" But Dr. Fong takes the time to explain everything out with no rush; and with his updated technology, he can show you pictures of not just any teeth but YOUR OWN! His dental assistant is also very kind, nurturing and gentle. You can tell she is very knowledgeable and is on top of everything
