Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

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.

A Truly Exceptional Experience with Dr. Shin
As a nurse with 17 years of experience in procedures and sedation, I’ve seen my fair share of medical scenarios, but Dr. Shin stands out as one of the best examples of what healthcare should be. Dr. Shin's compassion, skill, and dedication to providing the least traumatic experience possible for children are unparalleled. She took the time to make sure my son’s experience was as positive as it could be—focusing not just on the procedure but on his emotional and physical comfort. As a nurse who works with children undergoing medical procedures, I can tell you that it takes a special person to balance decisiveness with gentleness, and to be both quick and patient when necessary. Dr. Shin does all of that, and more. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

The best pediatric in the USA, rarely do you find a diplomate dentist as it proves her to be the best. A wonderful pediatric dentist and very gentle with kids. Speaks Korean, Spanish, English, Portuguese, a little French, and a little Hebrew...you won't find any other dentist that has her specialties, relates to patients, makes the patients and parents comfortable, easy to communicate with, a former veteran as well. She used to work on famous people in her practice in Los Angeles!
