Our Clients

Dr. Chow enjoys working with patients of all ages and strives to be clear, attentive and informative at each step of your dental care. The following reviews are selected from Clinicbook:

  • Dr. Lowell Chow is the best dentist I’ve ever had in the 30 years I’ve been in Vancouver. He is not only thorough he is also very thoughtful and careful to make sure there no pain or fear. My family and neighbours go to him.

  • I saw Dr. Chow yesterday for a new patient exam. By far, it was the best experience I have ever had with a dentist. Dr. Chow is very patient and caring, and goes above and beyond to make his patients feel comfortable. He took great care to explain my dental health and to give me tips on how to maintain my dental health. I recommend Dr. Chow without hesitation.

  • Dr. Chow is outstanding. I was visiting Vancouver from the east coast and had a filling fall out. I booked an appointment through clinicbook based on his reviews and was very pleased. He did a fantastic job of fixing my tooth at a very reasonable price.

  • Dr. Chow is the best dentist I have had (and I am 67). He is thorough, professional, friendly, and he doesn’t suggest unnecessary work.

  • Dr. Chow has been our family dentist for about 10 years. He has been my children’s dentist since their first baby tooth. His kindness and professionalism has been a blessing to my family. My children not only have a great appreciation for him but they trust him completely which makes every visit to the clinic a wonderful experience for them. I have recommended Dr. Chow to my friends and family without hesitation. I’m really grateful to Dr. Chow and his staff, I highly recommend them.

  • Over the holidays, I required some urgent dental work on a Saturday. I called Dr. Chow’s office and was advised that he could be in the office to assist me within minutes. I really appreciated it. Thanks Dr. Chow.

  • Dr. Chow has been a godsend to me. I was always afraid of the dentists before. His clear, concise explanations calm my fears and his work is first class.

  • Dr. Chow is the best dentist I have ever had. I refer him to my family and friends! I raved about my dentist so much that my husband switched dentists so he could be cared for by Dr. Chow too. Dr. Chow has also accomodated friends who were not patients but needed emergency dental work. He is thorough and gives a lot of his own time to looking after your teeth. In other dental offices I’ve been to, dentists take a quick look at your teeth and leave you with the hygienist but Dr. Chow is there for almost the entire appointment. I never feel pressured to get work done as Dr. Chow has a very reasonable and conservative approach. Everyone in the office is friendly, professional and accomodating. I can’t recommend this practice enough.

  • I had many fears about the dentist. I am so happy and felt no anxiety with Dr. Lowell. The experience I had was relaxing and excellent.

  • I was on a visit to vancouver when my sister took me to her family dentist, Dr. Lowell Chow for the first time. It was the best dental service I had ever received. The following year we moved to B.C from O.N and I knew which dentist I would be going to from now on. Dr. Lowell Chow is an expert in his field and explains every detail in a simple way to his patients. His nice and caring nature adds feathers to his expertise.
  • Excellent service, a emergency visit as my wisdom tooth was giving me all sorts of pain. Mr. Chow gave me quick, honest, and valuable feedback and was pleasant as always.
    Highly recommended!

  • Dr.Chow and his staff are super friendly and he always takes the time to answer any questions.

  • A great dentist!  And this is from someone who had such a fear of dental work, it kept me away from regular visits for 10+ years.  But Dr. Chow takes time, ensuring you are comfortable and at ease with the procedure.  I now book my appointments without worry.
