Louie Kenneth G DDS MA

Dr. Louie has been my family’s dentist for more than ten years now. He is extremely knowledgeable, gentle, and makes visiting the dentist a very pleasant experience. I started grinding my teeth a couple of years ago and had no idea — he laid out my options, explained the pros and cons to each of them, and helped me make an informed decision. He teaches at a local dental school too, so we know he knows his stuff and is current on the research.

Dr. Louie is by far the most gentle, kind, and professional dentist out there. You can tell he loves what he does and is the best at it, after all he teaches over 100 young dentists every year the fundamental skills needed to practice dentistry. He is a dentist you can trust and will only treatment plan what is necessary and will always provide quality care to his patients. Dr. Louie is just the best, I would definitely recommend him to all of my friends and family!

I totally trust Dr. Louie with my dental care. I have been going to him for numerous years. He is always friendly, gentle, thorough, and conservative on any work that needs to be done– which I appreciate. He recommends what is necessary and gives me timelines if he sees work that should be done in the future. This is helpful so I can budget and anticipate the work as I don’t have dental insurance. He runs a lean office so it is not fancy which is fine by me. I would rather have a honest, caring dentist than fancy surroundings and services I don’t really need. Definitely check out Dr. Louie.

Dr Louie is a fantastic dentist … my sister-​in-​law is an orthodontist, and she recommended him to us.

I have been seeing Dr. Louie for a number of years. Although his office is not in tip-​top shape, his care is outstanding. He is a very mild mannered man who has great people skills. I work in the insurance industry and he is not on my plan but my coinsurance is so minimal that I do not mind paying it. Experienced dental work is not free! If someone doesn’t want to pay coinsurance then they should go to a dental school where it’s free, time-​consuming and done by students who are not experienced dentists. Would you expect your medical doctor to waive your co-​insurance or co-​pay because you’ve been a loyal patient? I think not.

Dr. Louie is a great dentist! He is very professional and patient. As for the person that has to pay a co-​pay for their cleaning. If any dentist «absorbed» the co-​pay, it would technically be considered insurance fraud since you are suppossed to pay your portion. I get that the co-​pays could add up and can become financially frustrating but I think this is an example of how ethical Dr. Louie is. I hate paying my co-​pay too but I would much rather pay the co-​pay knowing I have an honest dentist!

After years of teeth neglect, I finally got the courage to visit a dentist. I went to Dr Louie from a referral. I was expecting him to go bashing on me for my lack of care for my teeth and embarrass me on how many cavities I now have & the poor condition of my teeth. BUT quite to the contrary, Dr Louie didn’t really say anything. Or when he did, he said it in the most polite and gentle way. I’ve been going to Dr Louie for years ever since.
So why he is only worth 4 stars now? The reason is that he is not in Dental plan network and I have to pay 10% co-​pay for teeth cleaning. It ends up being like $ 10 – 12 each time. It would have been good if he could absorb that $ 10 – 12 to show appreciation of my loyalty for being his customer.
I am also being to wonder if he has been «downplaying» the condition of my teeth just for the sake of being nice and polite. I hope sometimes he would just outright tell me if there is anything wrong with my teeth.
Dr Louie is a one-​man show. His mom, Lydia, helps out in the office during the weekend. She’s hilarious.

friendly, detail conscious, and professional.
Dr. Louie is also an instructor at UOP Dental School in San Francisco, so he knows his stuff!
