I had a terrible experience at West Coast family dental. I was booked for an “emergency” appt though I had stated I was NOT in pain, just a broken tooth. On my patient intake form I clearly stated my anxiety/fear of the dentist from past experiences and my ASD. I flinched when the air blowing device started up-clearly stated how nervous I was and Dr. Alex Fan disrespectfully said “do you want me to treat you like a child? Okay here this is what the air feels like, now I’m going to put this on your tooth” said in a very sarcastic and RUDE tone. When he orally examined my tooth (with X-rays as well) he said pulling my tooth would be too much work for him! And said I should have a crown instead. I can’t afford a crown I told him. He did not give any other options. I asked him to at least smooth out the sharp edge of my tooth for comfort- it didn’t help and I didn’t want him to do more, I just wanted out of that chair. He was in the room for a total of 5 minutes, embarrassed me, mocked me with sarcasm and I ended up leaving there with more anxiety and feeling confused. Do NOT recommend their over priced disrespectful service. What did I pay $150 for?! Not an emergency service by far. If I could leave ZERO STARS I would.Read moreShow less

I appreciated the dentist and her assistant's reaponses to my concerns. The receptionist was pleasant and efficient. And the hygienist was gentle and thorough. I am pleased to have chosen West Coast Family Dental for my dental care in Port Alberni and look forward to referring my partner to the office as well.Read moreShow less

I had an excellent experience at this dental clinic! From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable. Dr. Alex was very professional, gentle, and took the time to explain every step of my treatment so I felt completely at ease. Maria, the dental assistant, was equally amazing—friendly, attentive, and always making sure I was comfortable throughout the visit. The clinic itself was clean, organized, and had a very calming environment. I truly appreciate the care and attention I received from both Dr. Alex and Maria. I left not only with a healthier smile but also with the confidence to come back for future visits. Highly recommended!Read moreShow less

Exceptional Care and Compassionate Dentistry I can't thank Dr. Joslyn Dosanjh and her assistant (I'm sorry I don't recall her name) enough for the amazing care I received. I’ve always had a lot of anxiety around dental work, especially when it comes to needles. From the moment I walked in, they were incredibly kind and considerate, making sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. I had been putting off getting a broken filling fixed for over two years because of my anxiety. Dr. Dosanjh was so understanding and patient, taking the time to explain everything and ensure I was at ease. Her gentle approach and calming presence made a world of difference. If you’re someone who struggles with dental anxiety like I do, I can’t recommend Dr. Dosanjh enough. She truly goes above and beyond to provide not only excellent dental care but also a compassionate and reassuring experience. Thank you so much for helping me overcome my fears and finally get the care I needed!Read moreShow less

First time there yesterday. I traveled over from Ucluelet. From the moment I arrived, until I left, the whole experience was really awesome ! Thankyou so much for taking such good care of me Dr. Neel Minhas, and girls, I'm so happy to say I've found "my people" when it comes to my teeth from now on. Honestly, that was the best experience in a dentists chair that I've had in 54 years. Thank-you 🤗 ShellyRead moreShow less

I came into this establishment under extreme anxiety. I suffer CPTST. This mental health issue has caused lots of severe anxiety and severe fear. I used to be able to go into facilities with no issues that was until I went to a call as a volunteer firefighter that completely changed my life. I want to recognize this business and their ability to be able to handle my disability with complete compassion and understanding. It is hard for a gentleman to go into a place with the understanding that my condition will bring unwanted attention to myself. This facility and all its staff gave nothing but care and compassion to me throughout my experience. I personally want to acknowledge the front counter, two ladies and their understanding and compassion when dealing with my onslaught of fear. I highly highly recommend this facility to anyone that might deal with anxiety or someone with special needs as this facility has the staff that will accommodate a person needs that might arise throughout treatment. I truly want to say thank you. It’s not often accompany treats customers with that little extra special attention and I absolutely appreciate how you treated myself.Read moreShow less

Very pleased with the service! The staff is friendly and accommodating. Every procedure was explained clearly. All questions were answered. Definitely, I would recommend West Coast Family Dental to anyone looking for dental care.

I had a very good experience with West Coast Family Dental. I got an appointment as a new patient quickly and easily. Paperwork at time of arrival was quick and easy as well and they accommodated me nicely. Staff were considerate, thoughtful and respectful. Valerie and Dr. Lathangue were open and considerate, and very easy and comfortable to talk with about my concerns. Any anxiety I had going in was very much gone after we spoke and I was shown my x-rays. Donna was very pleasant and easily took care of the billing. And it was also more affordable than I expected. Overall I would definitely recommend this office, staff and Dr. Lathangue to anyone. I'm very grateful I had an appointment. Thank you.Read moreShow less
