Ellen Peng, DDS

Absolutely my favorite dentist so far.
High professional and very detail on the plans/​treatment to fix your issue. She takes your dental problem seriously.
Highly recommend !!! A very trustworthy doctor.

This note is a long overdue.
I met Dr. Peng when she was working at a dental group in the Peninsula area, even before she started her own practice. She is my family’s dentist. I, myself, practice in the medical profession. I view Dr. Peng as a dedicated, highly motivated and goal oriented dentist, who has a strong education and working background in providing quality care with a focus in patient advocacy. She is very organized, meticulous and thoughtful.
I respect her professional yet passionate attitude and I feel very fortunate that my family is very well taking care of by Dr. Peng.

My family have been seeing Dr. Peng for almost 15 years. She knows us and our kids by names, and has an amazing memory of everyone’s dental conditions, so that she can always provide us very personalized advices like where to brush more to avoid unnecessary fillings. She also remembers our different levels of pain tolerance to apply gentle and comfortable dental care without compromising the quality of service.
I respect Dr. Peng for her passions and commitment to her work, and appreciate how she managed to insist on a high bar of quality and service and always put her patients as the first priority.
Highly recommended!

My whole family have been seeing Dr. Peng for over 15 years. She is passionate and very committed for her work and has very high standard on her quality and treatments of her patients. Dr. Peng is very efficient and effective, and communicates well. She always provides great insight, offers options (if make sense) and helps us to make the right decision.
She is very nice and friendly. Thanks Dr. Peng. Please keep up the excellent work!

I have been a patient of Dr Peng’s since 1999 and have nothing but the best things to say about her professionalism and patient care. Her expertise, efficiency, friendliness, and honesty made her outstanding and trustworthy. I highly recommend Dr Peng to anyone who cares about their dental health and integrity of the provider.

I’ve seeing her for dental care for over 10 years. The main reason is that I feel that I can trust her. She is knowledgeable and experienced. She also always clearly explains to me whatever dental care she needs to perform. So I always know what and why. I highly recommend her service.

I have been seeing Dr Peng since around 2006! She’s a careful and thorough dentist who I highly recommend. I recommend her every chance I get when I hear people are looking for a dentist. My husband loves her as well. Great dentist (and so nice, she even sent us a baby gift!)

I finally found a dentist my entire family loves. We have three kids, ranging from 11 to 20 years and they have been going to Dr Peng for over 8 years. Dr Peng is caring, skillful at her profession and does a very thorough job in dental care. I love listening to Dr Peng’s travel and cultural experiences while she works on my teeth. Dr. Peg is hard-​working and down to earth and I give her an A+ for good dental health of my family.

I have been seen by Dr. Peng for over 7 years now. Very impressed by her professionalism and level of skills.
Just be mindful and respectful about Dr.‘s scheduled time and the patients after you, then you will surely be in good hands!

I’ve been seeing Dr Peng for over 10 years now. I have 2 small children now, and our whole family goes to see her. I have to say that she’s the best dentist I’ve ever had — very thorough, very conscientious, and she does a great job every time. I first went to see her to get a second opinion on a problem crown I had — where my prior dentist couldn’t resolve after 4 visits — a friend referred me to Dr Peng, and not only did she not charge me a consultation fee, she resolved the problem in one visit! Dr Peng is always very considerate of her patient’s time as well as her patient’s money (her fees are very reasonable). She will always find a way to accomodate if I need to leave to get back to work for a meeting or to pick up my children from daycare/​pre-​school. She works really hard and honestly cares about my teeth. She is honest about which problems need to be fixed vs. which we can monitor over time. My teeth always feel super clean and smooth after each visit. She is good at what she does and has a steady hand, so I don’t have to worry about getting random infections in my mouth like sometimes happen when going to more inexperienced dentists. Dr Peng has really high expectations of herself and her work. This includes having high expectations of her staff, but that is only because she wants to deliver the best to her patients.

I’ve been going to Dr. Peng for almost 6 years now. She is very dedicated and very considerate of her patients. She is tough but that’s how she keeps me in check about brushing and flosing my teeth!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Peng for 7 years and counting. She is truely a good dentist. She cares about her patients and is honest about money. She is very good with women and children. I saw some reviews who criticized her for being too harsh on her staff. Well, I actually appreciate her being hard on them because she is putting the customer’s interests first.

Finally find a dentist does awesome job, who I can trust:)

Dr. Peng has been our family dentist for over 7 years and we like her. She cares about her clients and works long hours to accommodate patients who can only come at non-​business hours. She or her assistant always call 1 – 2 days earlier to remind us about the upcoming appointments. Her clinic is clean and there is no sign of worn out over these years. My son likes to go there as he can pick a movie from her movie collection to watch. She is efficient and proficient. I had teeth cleaning, fillings, and a crown done by Dr. Peng. My teeth are under good care. She never puts equipment on my chest as I experienced with other dentists. I am also impressed with Dr. Peng that she remembers details in previous conversions with all of our family members. She handles insurance claims herself. She always communicates in advance and explains in details if there is co-​pay before making appointments for a procedure. I never receive surprising bills.

Dr. Peng is the best when you need someone to clean your teeth, but she isn’t so good at filling. She tries to be nice to patients but can be rude sometimes. One thing that makes me extremely uncomfortable is the way she talks to her assistants. She often yells at them in front of patients or orders them to do something with a mean tone. She really needs to learn to respect her assistants.

I just recommended my girlfriend to see Dr. Peng. She’s the best dentist I ever had. I always can trust her and have a peace of mind that I’m being taking care of! Thank you Dr. Peng.

I finally figured out why I never have to wait over 5 minutes at Dr. Peng’s office — she doesn’t overbook! In my past experiences, I’ve noticed that many doctors & dentists tend to book 3 patients for one time slot since they usually have 3 waiting rooms or 3 dental chairs (or they book patients 15 minutes apart which is crazy & impossible).
Today I noticed that Dr. Peng schedules each patient in 45 minute (or longer) intervals. This is plenty of time for her to dedicate the right amount of attention to each person she sees without rushing. This shows that she is more concerned about her patient’s well being than she is money hungry.

Been going to Dr. Peng for a while. She’s always been very professional and friendly. She lets me know exactly what needs to be done. She also explains to me as she works on my teeth. I’m usually very sensitive to pain but whenever she gives me the shots, I don’t feel much pain at all. She doesn’t just jab the needle in like some dentist do. I have referred a few friends and co-​workers to her and they have referred their friends and family as well. So far, I’ve only heard good things from my referrals. If you are looking for a dentist that is honest and will only work on things that are necessary (and not make you pay an arm and a leg for things you don’t absolutely need) or will work with your budget to space out your dental work, Dr. Peng is the dentist for that. But, if you are into Pain and have $ to burn, there are plenty other dentist you can visit.

Ms. Peng doesn’t deserve any star!
When my wife went to Peng’s to fill the cavity. Ms. Peng applied anesthesia wrongly causing my wife’s tongue numb for several weeks. When my wife contacted Ms. Peng for her malpractice, Ms. Peng just said it would take months or years to recover as she found out from her last patient. We cannot believe such inexperienced DDS can perform her profession.
Please stay away from her if you can.

My wife and I found Dr Peng through a friend’s referral, and we’ve been going to her for several years now. She has been great — timely, efficient, and friendly. I really want to take a look at my chart cuz I’m always amazed at how much she remembers from our previous conversations that I swear she must be writing it all down somewhere! For this last visit, I noticed she’s now playing Planet Earth DVD on the wall-​mounted TV, so patients can have something to look at while having their teeth cleaned. None of my teeth have fallen out since I’ve been going there, so that’s got to be a sign of a good dentist!
Unfortunately, Yogurtland is just a few doors down from Dr Peng’s office, and I’m not sure frozen yogurt is the best thing to eat after a teeth cleaning. But I guess it has to be.
