Patient Stories
We give our best — and our patients give us the kindest words!
“As always, my experience was excellent. In fact, I can’t think of a thing that could have been better. Dr. Trinh is always great, and I always request Brittany for a reason. I have never had anything but positive experiences with everyone at Totem Lake Dental.”
Tom B.
“Dr. Andy N. Trinh is the most patient dentist I’ve ever come across. I suffer from extreme dental anxiety, and I was blown away by how communicative and patient they are. They go over every step calmly, gently, and kindly with enough time for me to comprehend it all.”
Jennifer L.
“As someone who used to avoid the dentist, I’m so happy I found Totem Lake Dental. To help calm my nerves, they even streamed the otter pool at the Seattle Aquarium during my visit. That kind of attention to detail shows how much they prioritize patient comfort.”
Elise R.
“I had an emergency root canal last year and have been a regular patient since. The staff prioritized my situation with empathy and clearly explained the procedure. My insurance covered most costs, and the front desk efficiently verified coverage for each visit.”
Taylor B.
