Dr. Chang, his dental hygienists, and office staff are all WONDERFUL. I was able to schedule a (very) last minute appointment due to a cancellation, and was unable to find childcare for my toddler on such late notice. They reassured me it would be fine for me to bring her and they'd help out! They were all so wonderful and the front office stepped in to help when me daughter got upset while they took my xrays. They did a wonderful, thorough job cleaning my teeth and I can't wait to take my daughter back there for her first dental appointment one day soon! I would recommend this dental practice to anyone! Dr. Chang was born and raised in Corpus Christi, Texas. He started at Windsor Park Elementary, attended Baker Middle School, and graduated from Mary Carroll High School in 2003. From there, he went on to Texas A&M College Station, where he met his beautiful wife while studying for his bachelor's degree in Biology.
