Donna L Leong, DDS

I’ve been going to see Dr. Leong for 17 years or so. She is gentle in her work yet thorough. She talks to you about what you need but does not scold. As long as she is in practice, I’ll be a patient.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Leong’s for 10+ yrs and let me tell you she is nothing short of AMAZING. Makes you feel extremely comfortable, and i actually look forward to seeing her and her staff! Dr. Leong is extremely compassionate to all of your concerns, and treats you like a person and not just a $$ sign. I would highly recommend her to ANYONE!

5+ STARS!!!
Like some, I have been hiding from the dentist (for over 5 years, in my case). Then, I broke a tooth, and so, had no choice but to be seen right away (isn’t that enough of a motivator to be seen by a dentist?). After a few varied and unpleasant experiences with several other local dentists in the past, I wanted to see if I could find a dentist that was more responsive to my needs, and asked a good friend to recommend a dentist (he’s real picky, but only recommends the best). Upon my first frantic call to Dr. Donna Leong, I explained my urgency (the broken molar was lifting. right into a nerve. YIKES!!). I was given an appointment on very short notice to come in for an evaluation. Like many things, one’s needs tend to be immediate as well as taking place in a most inconvenient time, (in this case, late Friday afternoon. I was hoping that I wouldn’t have to wait until Monday to be seen by a dentist. To my surprise, I discovered that Dr. Leong’s office is open on Saturdays, which meant that I wouln’t have to suffer all weekend.
Upon my initial visit, I could tell that Dr. Leong was highly recommended for a good reason. Just about everything that I was concerned and nervous about were met with patience and understanding, and everything was carefully explained to me. Additionally, the atmosphere is not so clinical, and I am welcomed like a good friend. Her assistant, Carla, is excellent as well, and they both work harmoniously together and contributed much to the calming of my fears. Certain procedures are stopped if they detect tensing or if I motion due to some discomfort (I easily have a powerful gag reflex) to provide a moment of rest or to offer more or some kind of other pain killer to ensure that I am as comfortable as possible. It turned out that I needed a crown, and in the next few visits, had one made and installed that pleased ME, not just the dentist.
I have been treated by local dentists in the Redwood City area for over 20 years, and some were not very responsive to my needs, especially a certain one who insisted on continuing even though I let out a scream when a nerve (in a region that was inadequately medicated) was contacted by a dental tool.
It is with this kind of past experience with dentists that I had previously, and have come out of hiding, to be seen and treated on very short notice by Dr. Leong.
I don’t mind traveling a little distance for dental work, but it’s all worth it for the excellent skills and concern for me that I continue to receive.
If you’re avoiding the dentist, or have other issues with dentists, please give Dr. Leong a try. She and her staff are HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

This is pretty much as painless as a dentist appointment can get… and dare I say even pleasant.
The staff is super friendly – this was the first thing I noticed when I came in. They do their best to make you feel at ease. Dr. Leong does a thorough job, and is very professional.
I just switched over after a recommendation from a coworker, and I would definitely recommend her to others.

I have been going to Dr. Leong for 20 years.
No problems at all!
Good staff.
