We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

An exemplar of a superb health care professional
I have seen Dr. Kong twice. The first visit was in order to have an evaluation for a possible root canal. He was wonderfully courteous, kind, thorough, and professional. In ascertaining that a root canal was appropriate, his explanation, preparation, and performance of the procedure were all five-star-level. The second visit was to evaluate another tooth, thought potentially problematic at the time of the first visit, but regarding which he was unpersuaded. After giving time for recovery, etc. from the first visit root canal, at this second appointment he was again supremely kind, professional, etc. He rightly found that no procedure was necessary. But in addition he listened closely, saw a need for other evaluation, not specifically endodontic in nature, performed that evaluation, and was able to kindly and professionally explain the nature of the unexpected challenge, answer questions, and guide me to a good plan of care for that problem. Highly, highly recommended.

My experience was great, I have always heard Root Canals were very painful, not with Dr Kong, he explained the procedure and it was very comfortable. I “Highly Highly” recommend Dr Kong and his staff!

5 stars isn't enough! Best experience I've had in 40 years with any dental related practitioner (Dr Kong and all of his staff). He has proven to be the most caring, professional, knowledgeable and forthright with my specific issues, patiently explaining options/outcomes for me to make informed decisions. I can't write enough good things.

Dr. Kong was concerned about my comfort from the moment he returned my phone call on a Sunday morning. His “bedside manner” upon meeting him in the office was superb. He explained the process, my options, and then answered my questions thoroughly without rushing. Best experience ever in what was a scary, painful situation. The procedure went smoothly and I did not feel any pain from the moment he began. I highly recommend Dr. Kong for all reasons.

Had a great experience with a root canal. Dr. Kong and the attending assistant Michelle were very professional, respectful and informative during the process. No waiting once I arrived and when in the chair all went quickly and without any issues. So the entire experience was one of the best ever during a dental visit. Hats off to all. Thank You University Park Endodontics Pros!

Ten years ago Dr. Kong did a root canal on a tooth for me, and it has been no trouble since. I now need another root canal, and was very pleased to find that Dr. Kong will be doing this one for me also. He is an outstanding dentist, and his staff are outstanding as well. Very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend Dr. Kong when you are in need of immediate help.

Dr. Kong and his staff are amazing with kids! My son is 8 and he was scared, anxiety. It took an hour to get started lol, and not once did any one make us feel like a burden. They recognized the human part of my son! The extreme emotions he was having, and treated him with the upmost respect and dignity! Thank you for being the Doctor my son deserved on this day ! You are an inspiration to the field of medical! I hope you will always remember us and have extreme feelings of a job well done in your future! Because you are amazing at what you do!!! Thank you!
