‘‘Dr. Yu continues to impress me with his professionalism, high-quality of care, and attention to detail. He educates himself on best practices and brings this to his dental office. It is difficult to find a good dentist - one who cares and does an excellent job, much less someone who is a great one like Dr. Yu.’’

Keysone V.

‘‘I’ve been to about four or five different dentists in my time in the Bay, and Optimum Dental Care has been the best! It’s just on another level of quality care. Personally, I love that Dr. Yu always makes sure that I know exactly what is going on with my dental health. And with him, it’s also always super clear and easy to understand.’’
