I have been very happy with dr. stephen kato for many, many years. He is gentle, kind and does an great job in monitering progress -- such as when I had some of my front teeth chipped and monitering cracks. He also gives very practical advise when there were times I was unsure whether I had a cavity or not -- such as prior to a long trip when I was unsure whether I should have treatment done immediately or wait. Their staff is always consciensous when on calling in advance when reminding about appointments as well as setting up future appointments. A big thumbs up.
