Had my first visit at this office, found them through fellow yelpers. Reviews are honest he has great manners, office is very clean. There's plenty of parking, staff is friendly. I'm terrified of the dentist and due to covid it's been over a year since my last cleaning. Their hygienist was super understanding & patient I felt zero pain. Definitely found my new dentist, thanks to the staff and dentist for being so kind.

Great place super clean and fresh staff was nice and friendly they listened to my concerns and helped me. I just felt that since I wasn't paying full price And wasn't a regular client I felt it was more minimum help. But I'm happy with my check up. I don't know if I'll be coming back since I felt they would kind of pricey but I'm still thinking about.

Today I met Dr Gih and his staff for the first time.
I can honestly say, it was a SIX star experience in every way!! Thank you Dr Gih and staff for your professionalism, knowledge and taking the time to answer all of my questions and concerns without my feeling rushed.
I’m so relieved my dentist search is over.

Love this dentist office! Everyone makes you feel so comfortable and they are so nice. I got my teeth cleaned by Lisa yesterday- she was so down to earth, sweet, and gentle. The office is always clean and Dr. Gih has such a great bedside manner. I would definitely recommend this dentist office to anyone!

Love Dr. Gil and his staff! They are all friendly and welcoming. My teeth was my biggest insecurity because of the horrible dentist experiences I've had growing up. Since going to him. I feel comfortable and enjoying my visits, I no longer feel anxiety to go to my appointments. He's great with my son and knows how to make dental visits a great experience for him, he looks forward to his next appointment. I'm blessed to have met an amazing team, my family and I can go to. Thank you!!

I recently went to Dr G’s office for a check up and cleaning. Everything went really well. They were able to send the forms beforehand through email, so checking at the appointment was quick and easy. Alma the front desk assistant was easy to talk to and was helpful in explaining how my insurance worked. Everything checked out ok and Dr. Gih was great at pointing out two areas for us to keep an eye on going forward. Overall great experience, and I am happy I found a good dentist.

Had a horrible traumatic accident that led to my front two teeth being chipped. Made an appointment with Dr. Gih and it was the best decision ever! I felt safe coming into the practice because all staff members were practicing great physical distancing and really took COVID precautions. Alma helped make the check in process as a new patient very seamless.

I must say Dr. Gih is the most gentle and personable dentist I've had. I had my front two teeth filled and he really took the time to color match, shape, and perfect my teeth. Frankly, it looks better than before my injury. Dr. Gih was extremely

I have been going to my dentist for many years now but was unhappy with the results. Fortunately after doing my research via Yelp and reading the various reviews, I made a decision to schedule an appointment with Nicholas Gih to get my teeth cleaned.

Communication: I initially communicated with Nicholas Gih on the Yelp Messenger and he quickly responded in a timely fashion and addressing all my questions and concern. The next day Alma from the front desk called me to make an appointment and sent me digital paperwork via text message which was super convenient, easy and Covid-19 safe.

I have been coming here for a couple years now just thought I would finally write a review. Dr Gih has always been honest and good at explaining everything to me. At my last appointment I came in for a cleaning and was set up with Lisa. She was very easy to get along with and made the cleaning a breeze.

I was little nervous about coming during this covid thing but I felt a lot better about things knowing that Dr. Gih and his staff are doing everything to keep us as safe and they can. They have hand sanitizer in a few spots, air purifiers, had me wait in my car until they could bring me straight

With dental hygiene matter under the COVID-19 pandemic in place, my wife and I are very cautious to get out the house due to our age group in the high risk categories. We have been visiting Dr. Gih offices for quite a few years. Our mouths are telling us that we need to get dental check-up and cleaning done. We called into Dr. Gih’s office and arrange appointments for my wife and I. We were told that there will not have contacts with any patients.
We arrived on our scheduled appointments. I first met with the new hygienist, Lisa. She is very sweet and kind. I chatted with her like we knew each

I love Dr. Gih! Who says that about their dentist? I do, because he does top notch work!! But beyond that, he’s cool as a fan. He’s the perfect blend of California causal and military discipline. That’s probably because he is former military and it shows. It shows in his practical approach and in him being a straight shooter.
I think what is most impressive about Dr. Gih however, is his attention to detail. He’s incredibly conscientious and can spot a problem before you will. He’s like an investigator, making assessments, asking questions and giving you honest advice on next steps or

Well after putting off the dentist for way, WAY too long (close to 7 years, yikes!) I finally decided that I was going to look on Yelp and try to find a dentist to go to and finally stop putting it off! I had some unpleasant dentist experiences in the past and was very nervous about going back.
I saw all the great reviews Dr. Gih had so I thought I would call and see if they accepted my insurance. They were very helpful and checked my insurance and let me know that it was accepted there. I made an appointment and immediately started being nervous about going. (Yes, I am THAT nervous about dentists

I was looking for a family dentist that can take care of the whole family, incl kids aged 7 & 10. The office was clean, inviting and had plenty of free parking in the back. They were able to accommodate all four of us in an appt and get us through our cleanings in a timely manner. One kid had to have a filling and Dr Gih and his staff were very patient & kind with settling anxious nerves and very gentle in performing the filling. I would give an extra star just with the skill in calming her down!

So I came here on short notice without an appointment, even though they were booked throughout the week, they still managed to squeeze me in. I was having some problems with my cavity that I was putting off for awhile now, and come to find out I had to get a root canal without insurance ..luckily they worked with me in order to figure out a way to help me out so I can get treatment done for the same day. Dr. Gih was very helpful to the point where he asked if I had any questions multiple times and elaborated on every detail of why I had to get a root canal and any other options I can take (like

Just had a deep cleaning done a few hours ago. Stephanie was great! She did a good job explaining everything in ways I could understand. I havent gotten the deep cleaning that I needed in 10 years (literally) because I was so traumatized the first time. This time it went smoothly. No pain this time! I have the other half of my mouth to do next week and looking forward to my next visit, instead of thinking of an excuse not to come. Nick runs a great office. Welcoming staff. Highly recommend it here.

I'm a bit hesitant writing this review...why? Because if everyone knew how phenomenal this place was, there would be a line out the door to the street.

Ever since growing up, I regularly visited the dentist. Although it was never a pleasurable experience, I still went twice a year. My uncle was actually my dentist growing up, throughout the years I have also tried a few other dentists recommended by friends, family and even my insurance company. None of them ever came close to the meticulous care my uncle did on my teeth. A few years ago, unfortunately, my uncle retired from this industry

I didn't think I'd ever say this... I had a great experience at the dentist last weekend! Usually, I dread going to the dentist because it's a painful experience. But Dr. Gih and the dental hygienist, Sabrina, made me feel comfortable throughout my visit.

We started with an extensive questionnaire, and then Sabrina took x-rays of my teeth. Dr. Gih came in and interpreted the images with me. He even asked Sabrina to take photos with a camera to help me see certain details better. Before they started with the teeth cleaning, Dr. Gih explained the plan: he'd use the ultrasonic

Dr.Gih is such a great Dentist! I had the pleasure of working with him for a little over 3 years. I have seen him go out of his way to put patient care above all, he truly cares and takes pride in what he does. I would love to be able to have him as my dentist!
