Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Best of The Best
I had to have complete rebuild of my lower teeth; multiple extractions, bone grafts and implants. Dr Walker performed a miracle - no pain, swelling, complications, infection or implant failures. Superb professional care and follow up throughout his office and staff and genuine care for his patients. He and his staff are amazing. I highly recommend Dr Walker and his team.

Peter Cutler whose practice is in Saratoga found I had infection in the jawbone and sent me to Los Gatos. Lee Walker determined I needed 5 implants. Not a pleasant prospect but he promised no pain and kept his word. I elected to have a local anesthetic and while there was no physical pain the grinding, drilling, hammering and crunching is unavoidable but tolerable. He operated deftly and with obvious competence. The nursing staff were all pleasant and skilled and efficient in the own disciplines. I am glad it is over but if I need more work I will return to Los Gatos without hesitation.

After two extractions, implants and a sinus lift, I am extremely satisfied with Dr. Walker and his team of specialists. It was a lengthy process but every procedure was thoroughly explained in advance so I always knew what to expect and I always received follow-up calls to ensure that I was doing well. More than anything I felt safe entrusting my care in Dr. Walker and his professional support staff.

Had my one and only implant three years ago. It's clear Dr. Walker is an expert. No issues through any of the stages and now I don't even notice the implant is different from natural teeth. I would definitely return to him if I needed another.

Dr Walker and his staff explained the implant process thoroughly as what was to be done. This was my third implant done by Dr Walker. Dr Walker is an excellent surgeon, truly concerned about his patients well being.

My tooth implant so far has been seamless. Not only was I extremely satisfied with my care, but my dentist continues to say that Dr. Walker is the best there is. He says that he has no issues with any of the work he does compared to any other oral surgeon in the area.

Dr. Walker is a phenomenal dental surgeon. Upon arriving to have my wisdom teeth removed, I was anxious and afraid that something was going to go wrong due to the fact that I've never been put under anesthetics or gone through any surgical procedure before in my life. I was relieved and amazed after the procedure was over at how quick it felt and how little pain there was in my jaw as it was conducted (in fact, none at all). The office is super clean and tidy as well!

Skilled oral surgeon. Works fast & gets it right the first time. I would go to no one else if I needed to see an oral surgeon again. Staff are excellent. Office well organized. 5+ stars for sure.

It was a smooth process from filling out the registration information on line to the post operative instructions in the recovery room. The home care instructions were clearly explained verbally and with their take home handout. The follow up call was very helpful as well.

Dr Lee Walker is without question the best Oral Surgeon around as he was referred to me by my Prosthodontics Doctor who is also a patient. I have had three procedures including implants performed by Dr Walker with minimal pain and excellent, excellent results. His staff is also very helpful and efficient.

My regular dentist has the utmost faith in the skill of Dr. Walker and referred me there when I needed an implant. He had referred me to Dr. Walker in the past when I needed an impacted wisdom tooth removed. In both cases, Dr. Walker did an outstanding, successful job. I recommended him to a friend who needed implant work done.

HORRIBLE SERVICE!!!!! I called yesterday to see if as a returning patient he would finish my implant abutments due to the fact that my previous surgeon was horrible. No call back.. I called twice and finally they agreed to "Ask the Dr" .. Finally after calling a 3rd time.. they said.. NO..he won't take a returning patient.. no referral no quick chat.. THE WORST SERVICE A RETURNING PATIENT HAS RECEIVED
