Timothy Rhee, DDS

Dr. Rhee called me after he read my review and told me to come in for a second opinion — back to him. Wait! Aren’t you supposed to go to a different doctor for a second opinion? And I already have two «2^nd opinions». Since I moved to this area just over a year ago, I’ve been visiting different dentists to find the right one for me and my family. I saw two different dentists before Dr. Rhee within the last year, and neither suggested changing out all my fillings.
And the icing on the cake, my husband got an email today from Dr. Rhee’s office telling him to use his dental benefits just because they are about to expire. I don’t use all my medical benefits just because they are about to expire — should I start getting unnecessary medical procedures too in order to use up my medical benefits?

Dr. Rhee’s office is clean and inviting. His receptionist and office staff is professional, friendly and on the ball. Scheduling is easy. I used to loathe the thought of seeing a dentist until I met Dr. Rhee. I had an infected tooth and was in a lot of pain. The problem was the tooth already had a root canal and filling from my last dentist. Instead of saying that nothing should be wrong, Dr. Rhee sent me to a colleague specialist of his. What happened is that there are 2 roots in the same tooth. Both dentists worked together to get rid of the pain and infection immediately. I have not had another issue with that tooth in 5 years. I’ve seen Dr. Rhee for fillings and another root canal (on another tooth). He is always professional and listens thoroughly to any complaint I’ve ever had. Since my first encounter with Dr. Rhee, I’ve recommended his services to many family members and friends. The feedback has always been perfectly positive with the same statement: I no longer hate going to the dentist. Cleanings are also thorough and done by a very conscientious and friendly staff of oral hygienists.

Dr Rhee is truly a caring and professional dentist. A friend who’s been using Dr Rhee for the last 2 years recommended him to me. I recently had an issue with a failed root canal which was done a few years ago by a dentist in Irvine. To make a long story short — Dr Rhee repaired my failed root canal and actually performed the proper root canal. My pain and swelling was immediately fixed within hours of leaving his office. His staff (Stefanie) was excellent, professional and courteous. I definitely will recommend others to Dr Rhee. Must kudos to Dr Rhee and his wonderful staff!!!
