The practice is very warm and welcoming as were the staff. I had an appointment for a cleaning and it was probably the gentlest a dental hygienist has ever been with my teeth and gums! Left with no chunks missing lol. Dr. Kim was extremely friendly. I would definitely recommend this practice to friends and family

Dr. Kim is wonderful! I came in on the wrong day by accident, and she still saw me that morning. The staff was so accommodating and attentive regardless of my mistake. Great team here!

Dr Kim provides excellent dental care. In February, Dr. Kim replaced a crown which had failed (done by another dentist years ago). The new crown looks great and I no longer have any issues with the tooth. Her office staff are professional and courteous and are very accommodating with patients requests. I highly recommend Dr. Kim and Oronoco Dental.

Dr. Kim is a world-class dentist, equally good or better than the dentists I have used in New York and London.

I am very picky about dentists as I have had very good dentistry experiences since childhood. When my prior dentist in the DC area retired it took me quite awhile to find a perfect fit. Finally, after 3 less than optimum dental experiences, I found Stella Kim!Dr. Kim is a skilled, knowledgeable dentist whose cutting-edge approach and warm manner inspires confidence. Her skills are enhanced by her state of the art dental tools and cozy, welcoming support staff and office. A visit to Dr. Kim has, for me, always been a positive experience with a great outcome.

Dr Kim and staff are always professional, prompt and kind. I am undergoing a dental implant and Dr Kim took the time to explain all the steps in the process, and did an excellent removal of the tooth without causing me any pain. This is my first extensive dental procedure and I feel confident in Dr Kims capable hands.

Dr. Kim has been my dentist since Dr. Hanna retired from Oronoco Dental. She’s always very personal, affable, thorough and takes time to make sure the patient’s questions and concerns are addressed. She always has the most friendly, competent staff as well. I would recommend her without hesitation!

Great experience! Everybody was friendly and, best of all, gentle! The use of the water pick instead of the metal pick made this a completely different experience than most dental appointments. Felt great and clean all day instead of sore and wounded :)

Review №16

I am very picky about dental care and overall healthcare. I took a long time researching and comparing dentists. It is not easy because you really dont know what youre getting until you go in for the service. I finally chose Dr. Kim. EXCELLENT CHOICE! I am so happy!!! Professional. Quality. Modern. Competent. Caring. I am so happy with her work, I convinced my family and friends to switch to her. Her entire staff is excellent but I believe it starts with her.

Review №17

Were my teeth cleaned well. Yes. Cost was reasonable. Pain... Not too bad. In Australia dentists routinely offer gas to calm the nerves. Id pay extra for that. I know it goes with the territory but its not necessary to tell me ten times about flossing. I get it.

Review №18

Super! I recently had a laser procedure for bone loss and there were detailed instructions involving my cleaning, They were up on it having received instructions form the Pero, I am very comfortable involving this practice and will be back. The hygenist was great! Very, very detailed! I look at this first! Then Dr. Kim came in. I was pleased with her evaluation ! She acknowledged the bone loss - 100% opinion on that, but also said that my basic teeth were good! I will be back in three months for my next cleaning,

We moved recently to Alexandria, so we (my husband, 4-yr old daughter, and I) are very happy with Oronoco. Everybody there are helpful and respectful. Dr. Kim is very patient, explains well, and involves the patient in the decision process. My daughter likes to go there, even after she got her first tooth filling.

My first visit was great! Dr Kim and my hygeynist (I forget her name) were both very sweet and informative. They made the visit very comfortable and were clear with their recommendations. All around a very comfortable dentist experience!

Dr, Kim was very thorough in her explanation of the work to be done. And her Office Manager, Ms. Madelyne was very helpful not only in the accounting part but she helped me get down the stair steps to find my way to the sidewalk (I need to clarify that I walk with a cane) . Both Dr. Kim and Ms. Madelyne deserve and A+!

I have been seeing Dr Kim at Oronoco Dental since the transition from Dr Hannas practice. Dr Kim and her staff are absolutely professional and personable. I love the detailed attention she gives from routine check ups and cleanings to explanations of things to watch and possible future work that may be needed. I just recently had in office bleaching done and Im totally satisfied with the results.

Review №26

High-quality and attentive dental care, efficient and cordial service, reasonable prices from hassle-free dental bills in which all the costs are know in advance, frank discussion about and understanding of your dental health and treatment options . . . that’s Oronoco Dental - what a change from my previous dentist: At first, I went to Dr. Kim at Oronoco Dental for a consultation and second opinion about a complicated problem that may require three crowns. . . . Oronoco’s patient coordinator was exceptionally responsive, efficient, cordial, and knowledgeable about my insurance plan (one of many that they are in-network for). . . . Dr. Kim was caring and attentive to my unique concerns and needs in this situation. After a careful examination, she offered frank advice that included treatment options and tradeoffs, and then helped me through the decision-making process - what a refreshing change from my previous dentist, who dictated a treatment plan without options, as if I were incapable of participating in my own healthcare. . . . And, coincidentally, some of Dr. Kim’s treatment options could save me money, if I accept the tradeoffs. . . . Oronoco Dental’s prices are very reasonable, and from my experience, Dr. Kim’s approach to dental care is conservative - she is happy to do only what is immediately needed but ready to discuss and do whatever I want to maximize my dental health and appearance. . . . Oronoco is customer-service oriented, participating in many dental plans and providing patients with a hassle-free approach to dental bills in which the costs are clearly understood in advance and not laden with additional costs for services that should be included in the charges for basic services.

I love Oronoco Dental, Dr. Kim, and all her staff! They work really hard to provide a calm, pleasant atmosphere and I always leave feeling better than when I arrived. A few specific things I appreciate: they explain what they’re doing as they go, they constantly check in with you to make sure you’re okay, they’re organized and efficient, they play calming music and provide tinted goggles for your comfort, and I feel safe there knowing they take COVID protocols seriously. Everyone in the office has been vaccinated for COVID. Customer service is really excellent from the front desk, as well, which is a little detail that makes a huge difference to me! I would absolutely recommend this office to my friends and family.

Dr. Kim is great. I always have an efficient and pleasant experience when I visit her off. The staff is all friendly and helpful. They have been great during the last few months communicating their safety process and updating patients when there were initial rescheduling of appointments due to the pandemic. I would definitely recommend Oronoco dental for anyone looking for a good dentist!

Review №48

After 3 years with another dentist, I decided to switch because we moved and Oronoco Dental is the closest place to us. My experience here was so much better than anywhere I have been in the last 10 years. The dental tech was gentle, friendly and concerned and Dr. Kim was great too, plus she didnt try to sell me anything, just told me I was doing a good job on my teeth and gums. When my wife gets back from deployment she is going there too! Update 2021: My wife is very happy with Oronoco too. As long as this place stays in business and we live here, we will be patients with Dr. Kim and her great dental techs! Oh, the front desk is awesome too! Our old dentist moved into Old Town too, but we are sticking with Dr. Kim and her excellent, flexible, 5-star staff.

Dr. Kim was very nice to me. I had terrible toothache because of a cracked tooth and she took it out for me almost completely pain free, very gentle. But Id recommend asking for a strong pain killer after the procedure because its about 5 hours of excruciating pain. Other than that this is the place to go.

Dr. Kim’s staff got me in on an emergency visit; they went above and beyond to ensure I was taken care of. The staff is amazing and Dr. Kim’s dentistry is exceptional. I have had 2 crowns and root canals prior to seeing Dr. Kim, she made my 3rd crown and root canal a piece of cake. I have never met a more empathetic provider and caring staff.

I was a long-term client of the previous dental clinic at this location and my information was passed to the new owner. This had happened at my previous dentist and I was very disappointed with the new owners. This was definitely not my experience with Oronoco Dental. Everyone on the staff was professional from the moment they contacted me for a cleaning appointment through completing my cleaning and consultation with Dr. Kim. They use a really great mix of technology and personal touch in the clinic and Dr. Kim was very personable and professional and asked if I had any questions and listened with great care and concern. I am happy to say Oronoco Dental will have a long term client with me!

I contacted Dr. Kims office with a dental emergency and was able to get an emergency appointment with no problem. When I entered the office, I was greeted by name and immediately taken back to the exam room as I was able to fill out new patient paperwork before hand. Dr. Kims beside manner was impeccable. She explained everything in detail and even took care of other issues not related to my initial reason for visit. Dr. Kim and her staff made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire visit. My follow up visit was already scheduled when I approached the front desk to check out.My first visit was amazing and I look forward to having Oronoco Dental as my family dentist. The caring and friendly nature of the staff, calm and soothing atmosphere, and the clear and precise diagnosis and follow through is the best in the DMV area.
