I saw this dentist for about a year. I needed a crown in Feb, 2006. I paid $600 and the insurance paid $400 for a new crown, but it chipped after 4 months. When I asked to talk to the crown contractor to figure out why, he refused and asked me to pay another $200 to replace it. I do not think it's fair since I was told the crown is good for at least 20 years., and I paid a full amont. He also charged me for the following treatment after the crown chipped. I seriously doubted his ethics and his skills. I will not recommend this dentist to anyone in San Jose area.
