James Khoe, DDS

I've had similar experiences with dentists and that nagging feeling that a dentist is recommending a treatment for treatment's sake -- but without being able to read a dental x-ray, it's feels impossible to be a discerning consumer. 

I picked Dr. James Khoe, a family dentist in San Leandro, based on reading several reviews about him having a conservative approach to treatments, and I have been very happy over the last 2 years or so. I have always been extremely cavity-prone, and on several occasions he has suggested a "wait and see until the next checkup" approach, instead of racing to get the drill like many dentists have done in the past. It's a very modest office, but it always feels clean and the whole team is super nice. Also very easy location right off 580. (My child has not had his first dentist's appointment yet so I can't comment on the pediatric care specifically.) Good luck!
