Gary T Umeda, DDS

I always feel like I'm learning something about how to better manage my long term oral care and at the same time, that I'm as involved in my ongoing care as Dr. Umeda is. A partnership that's lasted 29 years. Thank you Dr. Umeda!

Had a toothache and Shirley up front was such a sweetheart, making sure she got me an appointment ASAP and working around my work schedule. Their new patient paperwork is available to be filled out ahead of time online which I really like because it’s great to get that all out of the way and not have it take up your time with the dentist. And on that note, Dr. Umeda was absolutely superb. Iris who took my X-rays was so patient, sweet and caring. From my X-rays, Dr. Umeda found the culprit of my toothache—a wisdom tooth. Just to make sure I don’t run away and never have the courage to come back which did cross my mind, they offered to take it out for me right then and there while I’m already in the chair. I knew that if I didn’t get it done right then, I’m going to put it off again and probably prolong my own pain unnecessarily. Dr. Umeda and Iris were so patient and encouraging during the anesthesia. Despite all my worries, the shot didn’t even hurt. And he gave me more than one! I’m so grateful for their care and will be returning to get my other wisdom tooth out. Thank you, Dr. Umeda, Iris and Shirley!

I was referred to Dr. Umeda by a close friend whose judgment I trust implicitly. I was delighted to find Dr. Umeda"s approach in treating my dental issues was as unique and comprehensive as my "Uncle" described it to be. I eagerly look forward to the successful completion of my procedure.

Dr. Umeda, Shirley and Iris are a 5 star team. I always leave feeling like my dental health is there number 1 priority. I can't say that about any other health professionals I have ever known. Excellent, excellent dental service!!

The first time we visited Dr. Umeda was for an extraction. The experience was beyond amazing!! Dr. Umeda removed the tooth so easily. It was like slicing through butter. Smooth and painless. Dr. Umeda is very knowledgeable and he shares this with his clients. He sets a comfortable environment and you never feel rushed, which is very good. Everyone in the office are very warm and helpful. My daughter's and I truly enjoy going there, it's truly a pleasure. I highly recommend Dr. Umeda and his staff members to anyone who desires to establish a welcoming family oriented dentist relationship. Which is also professional in their work and are very good at what they do. Make an appointment, I promise you will not have any regrets. ^_^!!

Dr. Umeda is the best. He really cares about your teeth and thinks of the longterm effect of your teeth. Minimal treatment is the best treatment! I went to another dentist for a year and ended up getting multiple teeth operations which did not need to happen. Some dentists are in it for the money! Now that I'm back with Dr. Umeda, I am a very satisfied customer. The only downside is that his services are mostly not covered by insurance, but that's the premium you pay for getting the best service. Pay more for better preventative care, or pay physically more for unnecessary oral treatments? I'd rather have healthier teeth in the long run!

As always, wonderful care & service from Dr Gary and team. Education is the focus of all the cleanings and Dr Gary makes sure you have every option for preventative maintenance and less-invasive treatments. And every time I go, the office has updated their procedures to incorporate the very latest techniques and technology. And certainly, I feel they've been very covid-safe. The kind, cheerful team is as adorable as ever.

Dr. Umeda is the most extraordinary Dentist I have ever been to! He’s an exquisite teacher as well as an over the top amazing physician that works with his patients in a prophylactic way. He wants you to be healthy and teaches you and shows you methods to achieve that result!

I so appreciate Dr. Umeda's professionalism, thoroughness, and insights. He is the only dentist I will ever need. Thank you, Dr. Umeda, for safely removing my filling, and keeping my teeth in good shape.

Dr. Umeda and his staff are truly THE BEST. He is kind, thoughtful & gentle. He is also continually pushing himself to learn and is always up to date on the latest advancements in medicine. Dr. Umeda is one of those rare physicians who actually want to heal & help you be the best you can possibly be. In this day and age, I'm extremely grateful there are still a few doctors who made career choices for altruistic purposes rather than financial gain. Dr. Umeda is one of those priceless gems!
