Dr. Johnathan Choi - McKinleyville, California

I wish I could rate him a zero. I had 2 different crowns done by him and after 3-4 years, both have failed. The teeth have had to be removed because of the damage he caused while filing them to prepare the crowns. The teeth should have been pulled, but instead, he charged $2,000+ for each crown that completely changed my natural bite and alignment of my other teeth. My new professional dentist agrees that the teeth should have never been crowned, but rather, pulled. Dr. Choi was always judgemental and condescending...along with his hygenist.

Dr. Choi and his staff are the best in the area. He is a caring, wise dentist who makes the experience fun and comfortable while giving constructive advice. I needed a mouth piece because I clench my teeth at night. When in it didn’t fit perfectly I brought it back and he made a new mold free of charge. The staff are professional and easy to work with.

Best dentist I’ve ever had. Dr Choi always brightens my day. He gives great advice and I’ve never had a dentist that I looked forward to seeing before him. I honestly can not recommend him more. I feel so lucky to have found him. Best of the best in humboldt county.

If you are a person with invisible disabilities be careful going here. I have never been so discriminated against by a medical professional in my life.

He refused my accommodations and then when I told him I felt like he was discriminating against me for my disabilities and my sister defended me he said, “You can sue me if you want to”, which I’m guessing means he knew that he was in the wrong.

I was supposed to get a crown put on today (this was second appointment with Dr. Choi, the first I had a panic attack during and left crying because of his lack of compassion and refusal to be understanding of my disabilities). I ended up walking out of the appointment today because he said he could not work with me because of my disabilities and will never go back.

His other staff were helpful, understanding, and professional. The star given is for them and only them.

Dr. Choi on the other hand was the most unprofessional, ableist, and confrontational physician I have ever had and that is saying a lot considering I’ve had multiple disabilities and have been in and out of hospitals my entire life.

Dr. Choi is my favorite dentist! He did an amazing job and was very patient with my fear of dentists. He was friendly and fixed all of my dental work in a timely manner. The receptionist and assistants were all very friendly. I recommend him to everyone

My first impression was so-so. The x-rays for my wife and I were expensive and I had booked x-rays and cleaning. I was told after X-rays that there is no time that day for a cleaning. I scheduled a cleaning and fillings for the same day two weeks later. Great right! Wrong. In the following days they canceled the appointment due to a ‘family emergency’ they then rescheduled the cleaning only and the fillings on the following day. That was then Suddenly canceled as well. They never answer the phone this was all done via text messages. Finally I was told we can have cleanings but no fillings until March 26th 5 months in the future. I’m very busy. I was frustrated and asked to speak with Dr. Choi he was polite and apologetic and said they would make it work sooner. However when I was handed back to the receptionist she was extremely rude and provided no options she hung up on me when I voiced that this was not acceptable. I have received no further communication. Save your money on the expensive X-rays and go somewhere else with decent customer service and ethics.

I was a patient. Had a broken front tooth. He attempted to repair. My tooth immediately had problems the next day a chunk feel out of the back. He attempted to repair tooth. I made it another 5 months and I was eating pizza and the tooth broke off. Not happy paid cash for this. He will also tell you how to live your life and what you should be doing at no extra charge

I went to see Dr. Choi and my first impression was great, but after my first procedure he prescribed me a medicine that I'm deathly allergic to and could have killed me had I not done my research first. So I told him and he apologized and wrote me a new one that would't, but after I researched that one I was allergic to it too! He recklessly put my life on the line twice and I canceled my appointments afterword. I would NOT recommend going to here at all. The doctor should go back to school and actually learn what medicine does what.
