My experience at Laurelhurst Family Dentistry was phenomenal. Dr. Wilma was amazing, and very knowledgeable. She explained everything perfectly and made my experience very enjoyable. Not to mention her sense of humor was great! I love this place and have recommended it to my friends. Don’t hesitate to go here, you won’t be disappointed!!

Dr. Shen and her staff has been amazing. I’ve seen Laurelhurst family dentistry for 6 months now and have always been amazed at how great they are. Everyone is very welcoming and they let you know what they are doing. I can’t say enough positive things about them. Thank you!

My experience with Laurelhurst Family Dentistry was outstanding. I will first admit that I have a fear of the dentists office, especially in the time of COVID-19. However, the folks at Laurelhurst made me feel at ease with their kindness and professionalism. Upon arrival, I was greeted at the front desk by Chekah, who was ready for my arrival with my pre-filled out documents in hand. With a warm smile (behind a safeguarded face mask), she handed me a couple of short forms to complete. I sat down and quickly filled out the paperwork. Just a moment later, I was taken into the exam room by my technician, who took pictures and x-rays of my teeth. She was a pleasure to speak with and was very gentle with the procedure. Shortly after the initial imaging, I was seen by Dr. Shen. Dr. Shen was incredibly patient with me as we went over my pictures and x-rays in detail. After discussing my treatment plan, she proceeded to clean and check the overall health of my teeth and gums. It was determined I would need to return a week later to repair a chipped tooth. Leaving the office, I felt such a sense of comfort that my teeth were in good hands. Chekah was waiting for me with my paperwork (and another big smile) once I was finished with the exam. Overall, I would have to say that this is one of the best dental experiences I have ever had. Dr. Shen and her team are a talented group of professionals and I am so happy to say that I have found my new dentist going forward. Thank you to everyone at Laurelhurst Family Dentistry! (I returned to LaurelHurst Family Dentistry a week later to get the chipped tooth repaired and my experience was just as stellar!

Dr. Wilma Shen and team are fantastic! I really appreciated how both Dr. Shen and her team consistently asked me if I was comfortable during all parts of the appointment. That was a nice extra touch that made me know they understood how exams can be stressful, and me needing a break was a-ok! I’m also very happy with the tooth repair Dr. Shen and team completed. Would recommend!

Dr. Wilma is an amazing dentist. She is so thorough, patient, thoughtful and friendly! She takes great care of her patients and I’m slowly converting my friends to Dr. Wilma believers. 😉 Though the front office folks could use better organizational skills and communication. —— 1. I was charged for a service I didn’t receive —— 2. Then they got my appointment mixed up with someone else’s and transferred my call directly to Dr. Wilma. —— 3. I was also promised a call back about an insurance coverage question, but never received the call Pros and cons, just like life.

I saw Dr. Wilma for an initial exam and cleaning and couldn’t be happier with my experience. Dr. Wilma explained everything that she was doing, and I felt completely at ease during my entire visit. I highly recommend Laurelhurst Family Dentistry!

Dr. Shen has an amazing aura and kindness about her that is greatly lacking in the medical field. On top of her being a wonderful human, she is exceptional at her job. She took care of my issues very professionally and made me feel extremely comfortable. Her assistant Amber was also very kind and professional at all times during my two visits at the office. Definitely recommend!! Thank you Doc!

Laurelhurst Family Dentistry is the BEST dentist I have ever been too. My family was with our previous dentist for over 10 years and decided to make the switch and they are amazing, comforting and wonderful with children. And the place is super clean. We love you!

I had a great visit at the Laurelhurst Family Dentistry. The staff were all very friendly, professional, and had great communication. It was also very easy to make an online appointment through this Zocdoc app. The dentist’s office texted me confirmation and reminders of my appointment.

Dr Wilma is a great dentist. She is very though and yet gentle. I had a lot of questions about how my teeth are and what improvements I can make she answered them all. She also told me I have a small cavity and scheduled me to get it filled before it can get larger. She mentioned to me I have less inflammation than when I last saw here and she is really great on following up.

My husband and I just switched dentists and are so glad to have found Dr. Shen and her team! They are very professional, warm, and friendly. Dr. Shen and her hygienist communicated with me throughout the entire process and were attentive. I don’t get anxious over dental appointments but can understand why others do – this was easily the most gentle dental appointment I’ve had in years. Highly recommend!

Dr. Wilma was so very kind & incredibly thorough for my 1st visit with them after moving to Seattle + it had been a bit since my last cleaning. I also felt very safe with all their thorough post-COVID protocols. Nadia was also super nice as well as the rest of the front office staff. Was honestly one of my best dentists/medical visits in years. Will definitely be staying with them. Thank you!

Everyone was wonderful, patient, and the atmosphere was so relaxed it was hard to get too stressed. Reception was friendly and helpful, and both the tech and doctor were fantastic. The staff clearly take covid protocols seriously, which was a huge relief. Thank you, everyone!

Dr. Wilma is fantastic. She is patient, kind, super focused on making sure I was comfortable the entire time and very friendly. I referred a coworker who is afraid of the dentist to her after seeing her and he was so happy with how gentle and thorough she is. All of her staff a friendly and do good work. I highly recommend Dr. Wilma and Laurelhurst Family Dentistry.

Dr. Wilma Shen is such a great dentist! I love that they are open on Saturdays. It’s so nice to get an appointment on a day off work. She made me feel so comfortable in the chair. The office is fully digital which I love because of the low radiation from the x-rays. The staff are so professional and welcoming. I cant wait for my next visit.

A WORD FROM YOUR DOCTOR

Dr. Wilma Shen has clinical expertise in dentistry and is currently practicing at Laurelhurst Family Dentistry located in Seattle, WA. Dr. Shen started her dental training at National Yang-Ming University, Taipei. Subsequently, she also pursued additional dental education at the University of Washington, Seattle. Dr. Shen sees patients for a myriad of reasons, including broken teeth, fillings, root canals, and sealants. As she is fluent in English, Japanese, and Chinese, patients from a variety of backgrounds appreciate having her as their dentist. She takes pride in providing patients with dental care that best suits their oral needs. Dr. Shen holds active memberships in the American Dental Association, Academy of General Dentistry, and the Washington State Dental Association. A recipient of various honors and awards, Dr. Shen also believes in serving the community and her countless volunteering work is a testament to this. I believe that oral health is fundamental to overall health. To live a quality life, we need to take care of our appearance, be able to communicate with others and enjoy great food. I enjoy helping my patients smile, talk, and eat—all the basic things we take for granted in our daily lives, but make all the difference. Each one of us sees this world differently. By working with so many unique people every day, I get to see the world through their eyes—a young child who is eager to explore this world full of excitements, a college student who is ambitious yet uncertain about what this world will bring, or an older couple who has a lot to share about what this world has taught them. We all have our special ways to look at this world, this life. It is both fun and inspiring to build a long-term relationship with my patients, getting to know them better with time, and sharing our life experiences. My team and I are caring, attentive, and passionate about educating our patients about all things in dentistry. We want our patients to feel like they are at their dental home—their dental health, their life, and their goals all matter to us. Seattle has been my home since 2013, but I enjoy visiting my family all around the world—my parents in Taiwan, my cousins in Japan, and my younger brother in the Bay Area. When I have free time, I attend Bible study groups, read, watch musicals, take cello lessons, and spend time exploring new places. In addition to being active in my church, I volunteer with the Medical Teams International Dental Mobile Van. I enjoy giving back to the community and offering my skills to those in need.
