Patient Reviews for Alderwood Endodontics in Lynnwood WA

To perspective patients of Alderwood endodontics, I have had two dental emergencies that needed prompt attention. Both times, my situations were addressed promptly and with appropriate deference. Imagine having major dental work and feeling relaxed AND not feel ANY pain. It was absolutely true for me.. The combination of the optional nitrous, staff, and doctor professionalism is second to none. I would characterize Alderwood Endodontics as being "the best in class!"

- Daniel E

Very friendly group of people. They were kind, knowledgeable and professional. I was blown away by how they went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable.

- Bree S

Dr. Wu is a very skilled and experienced endodontist. I was very impressed with her professionalism. I will be happy to refer her to my family members and friends. Her assistants and other stuff are also great and knowledgeable.

Dr Ashley Barrineau was excellent to observe. Very efficient, and so many steps involved! She and her Assistant Tanya were a well coordinated team. I was impressed. Thanks to Dr Janison for referring me here. Beverly Rogers

i was terrified to have a root canal! Dr Wu was so very patient & explained everything she did.

- Lucretia N

No one wants a root canal but if you need one, this is the place to go. Dr Wu was fantastic as was the office staff and dental assistants. It's easy to schedule an appointment within a fair amount of time, billing is explained up front, and care is taken to ensure your comfort.

- Dinah D

I got my root canal cleaned after my regular dental appointment showed some issues in the X-Ray. Getting appointment was very fast and doctor Wu explained the teeth/root status very well in the first visit and the intervention needed. Second visit was setup for a later date and it was a two hour appointment. It went great and I was shown the before and after X-Rays of the affected region. By the next day I was chewing and eating normally using the teeth that had the procedure. Thanks all again!

Everyone was helpful during a very painful time. They answered all my questions, especially while having anxiety! I appreciated the phone call to check on me the next day!

- Janice B

Not hard to get scheduled. I saw Dr. Wu and enjoyed her relaxing professional manner. Consultation was explained really well. I had a root canal, my 1st, and it went so well during and afterwards. Would refer for sure. My regular dentist referred me.

- Patsy M

I liked how engaging the staff was. And I liked the calm attitude that Dr. Bogaert had--even enjoyed hearing him hum sometimes during my visits. During the procedures, I was continually asked how I was doing.

- Vonya K

Dr Wu and Tonya were excellent, knowledgeable with great “bedside manner”, made me feel confident and comfortable having an uncomfortable procedure done!

- Russell L

Who knew a Root Canal was easier than getting a filling. Well the updated technology was a charm. I absolutely had no pain, even when administering the shots to recovery time. Amazingly smoot entire procedure.

- Monika W

I was referred by my general Dentist for evaluation and work was needed. The procedure was long but not uncomfortable. Everything turned out well.

- dave h

Referred by Cedar View Dental to have root canal consultation. The scheduling was a breeze with Jennifer over the phone. In my initial in person visit; I was welcomed by Jennifer and the consultation went well. Scheduled for a Canal and that was on time. Chelsea, answered all my questions and, It was mentioned to expect a follow - up cal from Dr. Barrineau. Overall, the staff seem to get along well, and I had relatively painless procedure. I would recommend Alderwood Endodontics for their staff and location.

- Wayne L

Root canal was painless, even when several hours later after numbing sensation went away I didn't have pain. Next day, like nothing happened. Thank you for wonderful care.

- Maryna F

I came to the office for root canal retreat. I had a wonderful experience at Alderwood Endodontics. Everything was great starting from scheduling appointment to the actual procedure and post treatment care. Dr. Boagert and the entire staff was caring, professional, and ensured that I receive the best service. I even received a follow-up text message from the doctor who ensured that I am okay after the procedure. It was a very nice gesture.

- Arjun B

Great service and great staff.

- Habtom G

They made me very comfortable, and I had no pain. I had a root canal and a crown in one long 3 hour session that went by quickly due to the kindness and care and comfort they gave me. They are the best in the business. My pain is gone. Thank you !

- Cheri B

Thankful to get in so quickly

- Ranee P. P

Best dental anesthesia I've ever had, super painless and effective.

- Lori M

DR Wu and her staff were exceptional. I came in for a root canal expecting pain and discomfort. I left there in amazement. I had no pain through the entire process. Dr Wu gave me step by step notification on her procedure. I would defiantly recommend Alderwood Endodontics. Thank you, Dr Wu and staff.

- Mark B

Having had 2 previous root canals, I was nervous about my third one. But I worried needlessly because from the numbing injections, which Dr. Wu did slowly so as not to cause much pain, to the procedure itself and afterwards, I felt almost no pain at all. I didn't even need Tylenol post-procedure! I can't recommend Dr. Wu highly enough.

- Ginny S

Please with the procedure and the telephone followup the next day by the doctor

- Roger L

Dr. Wu and her staff were very professional and courteous. Would highly recommend their office to others.

- Eddie T

Best dental procedure experience ever.

- Crystal S

The doctor was upfront with all the information that I would need to know; the good and bad. The root canal was so painless, I found myself nodding off!

- Bret B

Dr Wu did a fantastic job on my root canal and I'll definitely be back! I have severe anxiety because of several prior experiences with doctors who were unable to numb me up. The staff was so kind, Dr Wu talked me thru every step of the process, and I had no pain at all. I enjoyed listening to her golden-doodle's escapades - I couldn't help but laugh. Thanks again for the top-notch care! 🙂

- Kim H

I can tell that Dr. Bogaerts really knows what he's doing because he'll sing along with the intercom music while he's working. Even Assistant Nikki was rockin' to the music during my root canal. Dr. B and Nikki worked very well together; for a root canal everything went smoothly with zero pain. I have had 3 major dental appointments with Alderwood Endo and I am very pleased with their work.

- Andrew W

My experience was very good and I would recommend Alderwood Endodontics.

- Teresa B

Impressed by after visit call by Dr. Wu

- Sandra E

I came to Alderwood Endodontics for an emergency root canal. They took me the same day and completed the procedure so I could travel the next day. I am a white knuckle dental patient and they could not have been more gentle and reassuring. Great job!

- Julie Z

Had a root canal procedure last Wednesday. Staff was extremely friendly and explained any questions I had. The procedure was done expertly by the doctor. She was very pleasant and explained the procedure in detail which helped put me at ease. Will recommend this office for the same procedure to my friends.

- Manuel H

I had two root canal procedures done for the past two weeks. Dr. Bogaert demonstrated his expertise so convincingly that I was very comfortable and able to rely on his skills completely throughout the operations. My teeth did not hurt after the procedures, and I am quite happy about the whole experience.

- Masako N

It was a good experience

- Rupinderpal D

Very thorough and responsive after my questions after the procedure

- Masako N

I was nervous about getting a root canal, but the doctor and staff were incredibly accommodating and made the whole experience positive! Dr. Bogaert was very friendly and even checked in on me a couple days after the procedure to make sure everything was okay!

- Julia K

Efficient staff, they made the experience pleasant

- Patricia C

The staff is very friendly and efficient to book appointment for me, Dr. Wu is nice, communicable, and professional which make me relax. Nice place!

- Yang T

Everyone involved with scheduling and carrying out the procedure was very friendly and professional. Dr. Wu especially was very pleasant to meet and chat with.

- Chris S

A root canal is not the most pleasant experience to be had, but Ashley Barrineau and Chelsea Richardson made my 4 hour procedure on a Friday night a truly memorable and enjoyable experience. The fact that both of these people elected to stay late on a Friday and made me glad I was there says something very important about both of them. The long procedure was handled with great professionalism, and, even though I couldn't talk with my mouth full of dental equipment, I had a great time listening and laughing with both of them. My mouth feels great but, more importantly, I made happy acquaintances for life.

- rick c

Professional work and current equipment, good explanations

- Fred V

I would highly recommend Dr. Grace Wu. She is obviously an expert in her field and highly skilled in providing the best patient care. In my particular case, a back tooth which had a previous root canal treatment over 10 years ago, was having issues including infection at the top of the root. Dr Wu was able to save the tooth and strengthen it as well. I was very grateful for her expertise, care and follow up.

- Rick B

Overall this was a very productive visit. My dental pain/issue was quickly diagnosed and addressed. The patient in the afternoon "emergency" time slot cancelled so I was able to be seen as a new patient, diagnosed, and get a root canal all in the same day. I was thrilled with the care at the office and after visit follow-ups. Dr. Wu called to check on my status a few days after the procedure to confirm everything was healing as it should. I wholeheartedly recommend this office and Dr. Wu as an Endodontist to anyone requiring this type of care.

- Julie D

Kind professional office. Great attention to detail and at making sure you are informed and comfortable.

- Kim D

If needed I will come back to see her again.

- Bruce B

I would highly recommend Dr Wu for any Endodontics procedures

- John L

Very professional and prompt service

- Michael S

I have to admit up front that I am not fond of going to the dentist. Fortunately I have not required any procedures other than cleaning my teeth every 6 months for several years. When my regular dentist discovered I had a root absorption she referred me to see an Endodontist. I waited 2-3 week as I really was nervous about that appointment. During that time I researched all of the nearby Endodontists. I’d read the reviews, go back and read again and again. I found myself always going back to Alderwood Endodontics and specifically Dr Wu. When the consult appointment came my Blood Pressure went up as I sat in the chair waiting to meet dr Wu. When she came in her demeanor was calm and reassuring and knowledgeable. Ok. I was going to make the 2 hour appointment for a root canal and an absorption repair. Of course I dreaded the appointment. Day of the appointment everyone calming and efficiently proceeded to numb the area. After 10-15 minutes the technician tested for numbness and it was not numb enough yet. She calmly said she’d have the Dr come back in to make me more comfortable. Dr Wu came in and gave more medication to numb the area. She was not rushed or agitated. She remained calm and sensitive to my comfort level. Next time she came back she was ready to begin. First the root canal, with several X-rays during to procedure to assure the root canal was completed. Staff would always allow a break for me if needed and a time to swallow. Next came the absorption repair. Again done carefully and efficiently with Dr and staff always verbally asking how I was doing. I would highly recommend the office and Dr Wu for any procedure. Although I hope I will not need any more special procedures I would definitely return to this office and Dr Wu. Thankyou staff and Dr Wu!

- Sue J

The whole process with very quick. From calling for the consultation appointment to the actual appointment. Staff was pleasant and kept me informed of what was going on.

- Dennis R

I would definitely recommend Alderwood Endodontics! Their staff are friendly and knowledgeable. I was able to get an appointment quickly and felt like a valued patient. I was extremely impressed when Dr.Barrineau personally called to check in later that day to ensure I was feeling well and didn’t have any questions! I will most certainly be returning for any future treatments!

- Rachael C

Very professional and comforting dentist and office staff

- Michael S

Great staff and communication a plus!

- stephanie h

Very friendly office

- Kiem T

Dr. Grace H. Wu was so nice and explained everything in detail even during the procedure. Explaining what she was doing and why, was very comforting and relieved a lot of anxiety I had. Even the music selection was excellent! This is the day after and I'm already feeling relief and doing well. Dr. Grace H.Wu called me this morning to follow up and make sure all is well. I highly recommend her for any procedure! I had a Root Canal done.

- Tod B

I would go there again if the need arose

- Sandi Joralemon J

Overall it was very good and easy

- Yusuf N

I am writing this review one day after surgery. I am feeling great and have no pain and am already back in the office with meetings and calls. This is my second time seeing Dr. Wu and will keep coming back if needed. The entire staff was friendly and professional.

- Marco A

Overall good care and friendly environment to get the treatment done

- Swetha P

This was my first root canal, not knowing even what to expect, I really wasn’t even sure what to ask. I should have done more research myself, nod much was told me. I felt the Dr. was extremely annoyed with his assistant. Not sure if the assistant was terribly capable or not, seemed as though he might have been new to that office? The procedure itself was painless. Seemed state of the art equipment. I would not go out of my way to recommend this place. I’d ask around more, do more research in my own.

- Nancy K

I was so happy with Dr. Wu, she is such a great doctor. I had gone to a different endodontist in the past for root canals, (of which there were several), and each time, the doctor numbed the area in the gum, and then started the drilling and each time he always hit the nerve and I got that shooting pain. Then he would immediately put novocaine into the canal and then I was fine. But every time, I had to experience that extreme pain as he exposed the nerve. Not so with Dr. Wu. I was expecting it, but it never happened! It was great. Other than a little pinching feeling when she put in the shots to the gum, I felt NO PAIN in the tooth at all throughout the entire procedure. Whew, I was so relieved and I will only get my root canals from her from now on. Thank you Dr. Wu so much. And also thanks to Kyra the assistant, she was wonderful. They are a great team and had good communication with each other and me. Another thing, that was great about this practice is they would tell me what they were doing as it was happening, which made me feel more comfortable. The procedure was long, about 2 hours, but I will take that any day to be pain free! I recommend Dr. Wu highly.

- Annette R

Needed to ask for adjustment to Nitros. Needed a pause

- Steven A

Overall a great experience- both in the chair and out.

- Mark V

The Doctor was Very friendly and compassionate! Explaining the procedure in detail.

- George A F

Dr Bogaert and his staff are patient, understanding, professional while being sensitive to the patient's hurting and the need for the procedure..

- Marcia G G

Dr. Wu explained me her procedures and she made me comfortable and informed through the whole process. She was so responsible and called to check on me. Overall, I recommend to other who need root canal treatment.

- Haritha G

Dr. Wu was very kind, knowledgeable, and friendly. She explained her procedures every step of the way and she made sure that you felt comfortable and informed through the whole process. Thank you for the excellent care!

- Grace T

Everything was perfect

- Viktoriya U

I had a dental emergency and was referred to Alderwood Endodontics by my regular dentist and was so appreciative that they were able to get me in quickly given the level of pain I was experiencing. Dr. Bogaert provided an exceptional explanation of the images of the involved tooth and roots. The procedure went smoothly and I appreciated receiving a follow up call to check on my status. Best of all, I was doing so much better even later the same day of the procedure.

- Tracy H

My dentist found I needed a root canal. They called while I sat in the chair and got me in immediately! I was walked there from Dr. Robinsons and welcomed by all. The doctor and her assistant were so caring and explained to me what they would be doing. They were kind, they were gentle. There was no pain and no need to worry. I am so thankful and would highly recommend!

- Vicki A

Would have liked a little more desciption of the procedure as it was going along. Overall painless procedure, the nitrous gas helped a lot with anxiety.

- Erin D

This was my first root canal. It ended up being a three visit process over a year + because of Covid shut downs and my procrastination. I never had any real pain. At the end of the appointment today Dr B explained everything in detail. I might have appreciated a little more explanation through the process, since I have never experienced this before. Sometimes I felt he was not happy with his assistant, but I felt comfortable with the job she did. It was a good experience overall.

- Nancy H

Wow - what a great office. This was quite the set up, so upscale from the last root canal I had done several years ago. Top of the line equipment, very very friendly and helpful personnel and a top notch dentist. He had to spend extra time to find the 'calcified' canals. Can't ask for much more.

- Ranee P

Great!!

- Lance A

Top notch service. Thank You

- Rizalina P

No pain during the procedure except a shot of numbness on my gum. Dr. Wu was so responsible and called to check on me. Overall, I recommend to other who need root canal treatment.

- Chanthou S

Im a big fat chicken in the dental chair, which is a bit embarrassing at age 50. The dental tech was very informative, honest and made me feel very comfortable. I even tried to reschedule my visit at first. After my consultation with Dr. Bogart I felt a confidence that it would turn out okay. I have a difficult time getting numb- that's way I was referred here . He promised I wouldn't feel a thing- and I didn't. I enjoyed that that he was kind, pleasant and was actually personal. I find that is difficult to find in healthcare today. When I was home after my procedure I did have some post operative pain. I called the clinic and the doctor had already left for the day. But he did call me at home and instructed me further so I could get the maximum level of pain control. That is very important to me!

- shelly g

I would recommend Alderwood Endodontics to anyone. My root canal was painless, well done, and they were finished in under a hour and a half. All staff, assistants, and doctors were very kind and welcoming. Scheduling my appointments was simple and any question I had was taken seriously and respectfully answered. Everyone there is very professional.

- Miles P

Dr Wu and the entire staff were exceptional from the very beginning. They were concerned,calm,reassuring, and very supportive . Dr. Wu explained everything as she proceeded with the treatment. I had to return for a 2nd treatment that was difficult but my trust in her confidence was never at a doubt. I would highly recommend her practice to anyone who needs her assistance.

- diane S

At first, I thought my root canal tooth operation would be a very unpleasant and painful experience............To my surprise, my appointment was actually very non-eventful and surprising not as painful as originally thought. I thank the enitre Alderwood Endodontics from the front desk receptionist to Dr. B himself, for making my visit a pleasant one. Kudos to you all. Regards, Dennis C.

- Dennis C

They got me in in one hour and did a root canal!! Who does that? Exceptional!!!!!
