Hu Jerry C DDS

Dr. Hu is a friendly dentist who is very skilled. We did have a problem where we were caught in a loop of continually getting a bill that we had settled. We worked with his staff but it came up multiple times over three years. We reached out as a last ditch effort via email and facebook for a correction and Dr. Hu himself responded and he promised to correct the error himself. I appreciate his response and help.

I have been in healthcare education for nearly 25 years and has achieved the level of a full tenured Professor at a world renowned institution. I have taught and interviewed thousands of students who are now practicing healthcare professionals from lab technicians to doctors and dentists. To me, a good practitioner is someone who is not only passionate about their trade but stay abreast of their profession by constantly attending professional continuing education conferences, giving presentations both self-submitted and invited, and contribute to their profession through scholarly work. Dr. Jerry Hu is all that and more. This is evident by the numerous credentials he has obtained over the years beyond his original dentistry training and other scholarly activities. He attends professional conferences on a regular basis and is invited throughout the world for lectureships and workshops. He is a constant professional and the State of Alaska is very lucky to have him. Recently, I was diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea through a sleep study. Something quite common in people and often ignored but could lead to fatal consequences. I often wake up in the morning with a feeling of being "robbed" from the previous night's sleep and usually with a slight headache. I tried CPAP machine but was intolerant, i.e. I pulled it off multiple times per night so actually created an anxiety for me and made the entire sleep experience even worse. When I asked my pulmonologist about any alternatives he suggested an oral reconstruction device (ORD) and I knew right away who and where to go next. The phrase "you don't know what you don't know" is such a profound statement. I went to Dr. Hu's clinic and his staff took their time and measured my teeth with state-of-the art equipment using lasers and echo sound wave instruments so that a "perfect" and I mean "perfect" mode can be made. When this device came at first I was a little apprehensive and had both doubts and anxiety.

Dr. Hu is one of the best Dentist in the country. If you are in Alaska you must go see him.

Dr.Hu is one of the best dentists in Alaska!!

Dr Hu is by far “the BEST!” He’s knowledgeable, professional, kind and patient. His presence is warm and friendly, and you’re treated extremely special from the time you walk in until you leave. I am extremely happy with my smile make over and HIGHLY recommend Dr Hu! Dr Hu you ROCK!!!!

After so many years of going to dentists that don't listen or know what to do I finally found Dr.Jerry C. Hu. I had become self conscious about my smile, had constant pain from metals, poorly done root canal, improper care for tooth replacement after extractions none of which were repaired properly. After Dr. Jerry C. Hu assessed all my issues he thoroughly explained my options. The office staff is also held to a high standard which is very appreciated. All my dental work was done by an impressive lab that backs their work. I am so excited because my partials are an extraordinary fit and so precise along with my crowns, no more pain, no more metal and sleeping well. Dr. Hu has given me my smile back and everyone loves seeing that again. Congratulations to Dr. Jerry C. Hu for continually educating himself about how dentistry improves our lives and the outstanding awards he so rightly deserves. Thank you to Dr. Jerry C. Hu DDS, Elaine Mattson

My family have been to several dentists over the years. For one reason or another, we would move on to another, in hopes of finding a dentist that met our needs and expectations. Well over 16 years ago, we landed on Dr Jerry Hu's doorstep and have not looked back since. Dr Hu' s chairside manner, quickly gained the trust of our children, which was very important to us. They actually look forward to their cleanings and check ups. Not just Dr Hu, but his entire staff are incredibly and genuinely friendly on a personal level. Dr Hu and staff has proved to us over and over that they truely care for us and our continued well being. Dr Hu doesn't just tell you what has to happen, he gives you options with the pro's and con's of each option. I can tell you from personal experience, I will not go with option "B" again, when Dr Hu highly recommends option "A". He knows what he is talking about. (Thank you Dr Hu for not saying "I told you so"). My family didn't just find a dental practice, we found friends that keep our smiles bright.

Dr. Jerry Hu has been our Family Dentist for over 17 years. Our children have grown up with him and his services, and we feel like family when we go see him. Dr. Hu is constantly continuing his education to provide the most current technology, and up to date procedures to his practice. My husband who has had many Dentists before we found Jerry, feels he has “the most gentle hand” when performing his duties. We are blessed to have both his friendship and outstanding professional service.

Wow!!! I should have done this years ago. Dr. Hu gave me the best smile makeover ever!! It's so natural looking and I feel it makes me look younger. What a great experience and wonderful results!

Doctor Hu is great! Have been going to him for years, my teeth look great. I highly recommend him.

My dental exam was very though and went beyond a normal exam. The attention to my overall dental heath inclued more then my teeth, it was a complete oral exam. A side note, his office is fabulous and comfortable! You will not be disappointed!

Dr. Hu and his staff are highly efficient and well trained. They are friendly and compassionate. The clinic is clean and comfortable. I am pleased with the care and treatment I have received and will continue to have my dental needs met here.

After years of searching for the right dentist, I finally found Dr. Hu! My teeth are worn flat, almost to nothing. I searched on the internet for someone who is credentialed and uses the highest quality of materials and most current technology and equipment. His artistry and craftsmanship is beyond anything I can ever expect. My new smile is life changing. My bite is so comfortable and I look 10 years younger! Your team of excellent assistants and insurance guy is super on top of it all! I cannot recommend a better, more thorough and qualified dentist!

On the 13th month my fiance's crown broke, so he put the blame on her and charged us full price for the replacement. What kind of pride is that in your work and quality of workmanship. Dr Hu is a kind gentleman, but he is lacking in genuine patient concern and empathy. He is more concerned about his dollar than his patients well being. Personally I had a couple crowns done and went back in for increasing pain, hoping to get something stronger and his dental assistant was condescending and rude. I was beside myself with pain making it hard to even think and they wouldn't give me anything stronger. I just left and toughed it out. What a miserable experience. Having to change dentists after 41 years and find a good dentist in this area has been a nightmare

Dr. Hu is Fabulous! I highly recommend him and his clinic. They are all highly trained, professional, caring and knowledgeable in everything they do, from dental, restoration and now his sleep apnea! They work with you like you are his personal family and make sure the work performed is working for you. I can't imagine going to someone else for my dental. I highly recommend Dr. Hu and his staff...You can't go wrong.

Dr. Hu thank you for transforming my life. I'm very thankful, you're the best dentist who has accomplished so much in your career and changed the lives of so many. Very humble man you are with a great heart. You've had an amazing career, and you are doing excellent work. Thanks for your kindness and compassion. Great staff there too. I wish I could fly back to Alaska every six months to have you only be my dentist. 💗

FYI I just had to go to anchorage to an oral surgeon and have a tooth removed because Dr. Hu messed it up. He also caused a second tooth to decay but I got that one fixed in time. My new dentist agrees that both those teeth were improperly worked on. He also put a gold crown on that is not seated correctly ... I went to him originally because "everyone loves him" BUT now that I've talked to just a few friends about my issues they all have similar stories❗️ Be warned ,,,,

I have been a regular patient of Dr Hu's for over 3 years. He has magically given me back my smile and with it a new quality of life!! People notice and wonder what my secret to life is. Thank you doctor -- you've proven again how beautiful a smile can be.

Some People! Dr. Hu has done my smile makeover, and I just love smiling all the time. He is so compassionate and bends over backwards for his patients; I know that because that is the way he treats my family. I see some dishonest people like to attack him, maybe because they don't pay their bills over many months to years, or they irresponsible with abundant no shows. That is just so sad that people like that would fabricate lies to attack this hard working and highly skilled doctor. I know his entire office dedicates time in preparation for my visits, and every time I show up, everything is all set up and ready for me. Thank you Dr. Hu for my wonderful smile, and don't give up on the world; there are plenty of decent people who love you and respect your work and dedication.

I wish this post did not have a character limit:-( Dr. Hu and his office staff often schedule appointments without patient input, he gives referrals to specialist whom he later says he has heard bad things about, he charges 'no show' fees even if you cancel in advance, he charges 'no show' fees if you do not return his calls, he does not personally return calls even when requested, office turn over is high (hmmm, why is this?), some office staff is rude and cannot justify the policies that are in place (DJ), he cancels some of his appointments due to double booking, second opinions differ from his diagnoses, he drops patients who question his policies... My family and I will look elsewhere for a quality dentist who does not engage is questionable practices!
