PATIENT REVIEWS

Super Dentist with Magic Hands. I am the biggest wimp when it comes to my mouth. I recently had a root canal that needed a crown and another crown that broke needed to be replaced. Dr. Ku did all of that and I didn’t feel one iota of pain from beginning to end. He is also super fast, so you’re not sitting in the chair for very long. Also, he was a professor at the UCLA Dental School and he taught, among other things, Reconstruction Surgery!! If you are looking for the consummate professional dentist who will treat you like royalty, this is the man for you. Also, his admin staff is incredible and his Oral Hygienist is the best I’ve ever had work on me. I love these folks and you will too.

Very knowledgeable and up to date on current technology. So nice and professional both doctors James and Julie and the staff. If Dr Ku recommends a procedure he provides the risk of waiting or not doing in a very common sense way. He understands sometimes you can’t afford the procedure or can’t afford to not do the procedure. I always feel like im getting the straight answer, no bull.

Dr. Ku is my dentist with the best service in town. His staff is excellent and very skilled. Dr. Ku has done several root canals for me and crowns, absolutely the best. His hygienist, Michelle, is the best there is and has been taking care of my smile for years. They work very well with my insurance getting pre-determination of benefits before any service is performed.

Just the Best!!! I do not usually write recommendations. In this case I have to share an amazing Dentist I found in Albuquerque. Charismatic Dr. Ku maintains the cleanest, pain free, most hi tech dental practice I have ever experienced. For the first time I had my teeth cleaned with “0” discomfort. I never experienced pain when Dr Ku performed complex dental procedures. Dr. Ku, a highly accomplished professional, is adept at all dental procedures to include root canals, bone grafts and other oral surgeries. His staff is well trained, personable and you feel Dr. Ku and his staff actually care about your long-term welfare. His equipment is beyond state of the art resulting in an expedient and comprehensive diagnosis. The beautiful office is spotless. With Dr. Ku as my dentist, I know I am in good hands and will be healthier in the future.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Ku since he bought the practice here is Albuquerque several years ago. He is an EXCELLENT dentist! He is up to date with the latest procedures and has high expectations of his labs, staff, and himself! He is also very kind. He lately moved into a new, very clean and professional office. I’m glad I go to Dr. Ku as my teeth are getting the services they need.

Dr Ku just did the most marvelous work of making our 14 yr old’s smile as good as new. Our son lost half of one of his front teeth in a fall on a school bus his first day of 3rd grade at his new school. Although our family dentist had bonded stuff to his remaining half of a tooth, it never looked natural. Dr Ku re-worked it and also filled 2 cavities with no pain to our son and we are thrilled with our son’s new look. Both Dr Ku and his assistant, Theresa, are stars on our book.

I’ll start by saying I dread going to the dentist because of my overly active gag reflex. Dr. Ku and his staff are VERY accommodating and patiently and comfortably get the job done. I’ve had two crowns put on by him and appreciate all he did to make sure I could get a proper mold and crown setting without discomfort. I’d definitely recommend him.

I didn’t initially choose Dr. Ku….I became his patient when my previous dentist retired, so there’s always some trepidation when one is paired with a doctor/dentist you don’t personally pick. From my 1st appointment, his professionalism, humor, kindness and excellent dental work made me so glad he was my dentist. A wonderful practice – all employees are super!

Dr Ku is a dentist I found after intensive research, I wasn’t about to take my 87 year old father to just anyone. My dad means the world to me and dad being older and needing 4 root canals and crowns I wanted the best dentist money could buy for dad and we found the best at a reasonable price to boot. Dr Ku. Is absolutely awesome please visit his website jameskudds.com for more information– we couldn’t be happier and I spread the word when I find greatness in a profession and Dr James Ku, DDS is the real article!

Dr. Ku and his receptionist, Jenny are wonderful people. They’re the friendliest bunch and they take real good care of their patients. During any dental work, they continuously check to make sure you’re doing okay, or that nothing is hurting. They’re total professionals, and Dr Ku even teaches at USC on certain days. I normally dread going to the dentist, but they make it a pleasant experience for sure. The only downside to this place I noticed is that they’re only open 4 days during the week. Currently it’s Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. He teaches on Thursdays. So depending on the semester, his office hours might be different.

Looking for an excellent dentist? Let me highly recommend without reservation, James Ku DDS. I had the good fortune to meet Dr Ku 2 years ago when he arrived in Albq from Calif to take over the practice of my wife’s dentist, Gary Schroeder, DDS who was retiring. My previous dentist had abruptly left town. Dr.Ku immediately responsed to my need for a dental implant which went extremely well and has continued to provide me with comprehensive dental care. As a medical doctor, I am very impressed with Dr.Ku’s technical skills, utilizing state of the art technology, chair side manner, compassion and charming personality and his excellent office staff. I am confident that you will also be pleased. Robert T. Kellogg, MD

Came here for an emergency for my husband, everyone was nice and professional, respectful and took my husband in as fast as possible. We filled out some of the necessary documents and within 5 minutes he was in getting X-ray’s and getting his tooth extracted. Within 45 minutes we were out. Fast and efficient and not expensive. Awesome job everyone. Thank you so much for your wonderful help. We will be coming back in the future!

Let me start by saying I was a dental assistant for 13 years so know a little bit about dentists. Dr. Ku is not only extremely competent but caring compassionate and kind. A plus is his great sense of humor. So glad I found him, after 2 dentists could not solve my discomfort, actually made it worse …………no caring……not listen……..rushed in and out of the room……………..I was really miserable …………. Dr. Ku addressed the problem on the first visit………….took his time I needed to see him a few more times, I am now comfortable for the first time in over 2 years……………..he had actually listened to me. His staff is very welcoming, pleasant to to talk to and make you feel comfortable. So I recommend him highly for whatever your needs may be from a simple filling to cosmetic…………………go see him

After many years of seeking a trustworthy dentist for my family I’ve finally found a great one! I’m so pleased with everything from check-in to check-out and everything in between, for me and my whole family. Thank you Dr. Ku and staff for a wonderful experience. We look forward to being lifelong clients of your practice.

I came in as a walk not expecting to be seen, this was the 5th place I had visited, had horrific pain in my lower molar (#30), I was assisted immediately after seeing in how much pain I was in. Forever thankful for the care and professionalism show today, from office staff to the attending. Would highly recommend visiting here before other local places.

Dr. Ku and everyone at his office are always kind and accommodating! All are knowledgeable, up to date on the latest dentistry methods, professional, and patient. Dr. Ku is a true master! He has given me fillings, crowns, and recently an unplanned root canal. I dreaded them all. But my experience has always been positive! Dr. Ku takes the time to inform me about the procedure, what to expect, and answer ALL of my questions. He is the right mix of professional and personable that I value in a doctor. I enjoy a good laugh with him and his assistants while in the dental chair. The front office staff are stellar! They inform me of what is and isn’t covered through my dental insurance before my procedures and are willing to work with my insurance company if needed so I don’t have to. I am always in good hands and well taken care of with Dr. Ku and his wonderful staff!

Dr. Ku is a very talented dentist and uses the latest technology and the most modern dental equipment to make me feel comfortable during cleanings, fillings, crowns, and extractions – my journey down the dental path so far! Dr. Ku and his team have taken exceptional care of me and are committed to providing the most professional consultations and services available. You always know what is going on with your dental health, available options, and the costs involved. No surprises here – except that it IS surprising to have such a nice group of people committed to enhancing your smile so you can live a brighter life!

Best dentist you’ll ever see, and the best office staff you’ll ever deal with. No, seriously. I went years without seeing a dentist because a previous one cut my mouth up on accident and blamed it on me. It was a little traumatizing. After much goading by loved ones, I decided to take up an appointment with Doctor Ku. Doctor Ku has totally made dentists trips stress-free for me. Everything he’s done with me has been done with patience, a willingness to explain, and complete courtesy. The dude really, REALLY knows his stuff, too. If you’re looking for a good dentist, you’ve found him. And if you’re worried about going to see a dentist since you haven’t seen one in ages, this is the guy you should see. Take it from someone who procrastinated for years after dealing with somebody who sucked. Doctor Ku is amazing. Check him out.

I found Dr. James Ku on Yelp and I’m so grateful. My front upper and lower teeth were worn out because I grind my teeth. It was so bad that it almost hit my nerves. Dr Ku did an amazing job using state of the art equipments and by just using fillings able to rebuild my upper and lower worn out teeth. Totally recommend We Ku. The best dentist I had so far!

After seeing many different dentists, I feel I am in good hands with Dr. Ku.  He is the MASTER of extractions.  Dr. Ku has removed two of my molars and I felt no pain.  Afterwards I didn’t have to use the prescribed pain-killers.  I was riding my bike around and eating dinner later that day.  The experience is pleasant and Jenny the receptionist is very kind and professional.  Highly recommend this practice.

I have been seeing Dr Ku the last few years since he opened his office on Montgomery. It has been typical teeth cleanings for me until I chipped a front tooth last week. The staff got me scheduled for today. Dr Ku is no doubt a master of his craft! The results from my procedure to fix my chipped tooth were way better than anything I expected. The level of professionalism and technology throughout his office is impressive. I have never reviewed a dentist but Dr Ku is the exception and I will never consider using another dentist.
