We came in with a referral for an orally sedated exam since my son had high anxiety and could not be seen by a regular dentist. He forcefully examined my son with no sedation what so ever despite that being why we were sent there. My son screamed and cried to the point of nearly puking while being restrained. I finally put a stop to the exam which resulted in my soon having bleeding teeth, an abrasion on his jaw and swollen mouth. His mouth continued to bleed through the day and my son hasn't eaten or drank anything since and panics if anyone gets near his face.

This dentist doesn't appear to me to be good with children, especially special needs children. My 5 year old daughter had her first appointment today, October 7, 2015, at Trinity Pediatric Dentistry at 2:30 p.m. When I first arrived, I was told by the lady at the front desk that they never received my online paperwork. I submitted it at 10 a.m. this morning, online as instructed, and received a confirmation it was sent. Not a big deal. Next, they ask me if my daughter can come back alone since I had another child with me. I explain that she was nervous to come to the dentist, and it would be better if I came back with her. Again, not that big of a deal. Once in the exam room, the assistant asked me a series of questions. I was quick to point out that my daughter was adopted from foster care recently, and she has experienced significant abuse and neglect. I informed the assistant that she suffers from PTSD (due to the abuse and neglect) and sensory processing disorder. She wrote the information down on her notepad. Next, the assistant cleaned my daughters teeth. My daughter was agreeable though out the procedure. Next, the assistant tells my daughter she is coming to get X-rays. They assistant tells me to stay in the exam room while she takes my daughter to a different room for the X-rays. Here is where the BIG problem arose... suddenly, Dr. Chris Choung comes into the exam room where I am waiting and without introducing himself or saying hello blurts out, "This is ridulous, your child just kicked my assistant and she is being completely defiant. I want to make sure you are on the same page to hurry up and get the rest of this done." I tell my daughter she cannot kick people. Completely shocked I respond with, "I am sorry she did that. Did your assistant share with you that my daughter was adopted from foster care and has experienced a lot of abuse and neglect and has sensory processing disorder?" He replies, "Yes I was told that." I then tried to explain to him that she wasn't just "being defiant". She is a special needs, abused child that responds out of fear. My daughter came back in the room and hid behind the plant in the exam room. He tells his assistant they need to see other patients. He leaves the room and comes back in a few minutes. Then, he begins to question me in detail about why my child had previously been to two other dentists. I explained that we moved and her insurance changed. He made me feel very uncomfortable with what felt like an accusatory tone. As I was checking out, the receptionist at the desk was engaging in a what sounded like a confrontational phone conversation with another parent. As a mom of three children with a degree in education, I certainly don't condone my children kicking anyone, but I hoped he would offer us some compassion since she has special needs.I do not know if Dr. Choung has received any training on working with special needs children. Maybe had I brought one of my other children in, my experience would have been different. I do not know and do not wish to find out.

This staff and doctor were amazing. They made my 3 year old so comfortable and were so kind to him. I drove a little bit of a distance to come to this practice and it was well worth the drive. I highly recommend Dr.Chris he was above and beyond as was his staff!
