(only because zero isn't an option) Dr. Alan Levy and his hygienists are excellent -- skilled, professional, genuinely great at what they do. Which makes it infuriating that the front desk is the reason why they've permanently lost my business. I was a loyal patient here for years. Spotless billing history, never a problem. Then one Friday I got caught in the 405 traffic that anyone in LA knows is a coin flip, called ahead to say I was running late, and as I was parking right outside their door -- 20 minutes late -- they cancelled my appointment. No offer to wait for the next opening. No attempt to rebook. No flexibility whatsoever. Just a cancellation, followed by a bill for an appointment that never happened. Then it got worse. I called three times -- calmly, reasonably -- to ask them to drop the charge for a service I never received. Three times I got the same cold, dismissive answer: lateness is billable, read the fine print. Years of loyalty meant nothing. No goodwill, no judgment, no interest in keeping a long-term patient over a single traffic jam. Just a hand out, demanding money for an empty chair. That's the whole relationship to them: not a patient, a line item. So they've lost my business -- permanently -- and I'll be telling everyone I know to think twice before handing this office their trust or their money. The dentistry is good. But you have to get past a front desk that will bill you for nothing, lecture you for asking, and treat years of loyalty like it never happened. Not worth it. Go somewhere that remembers you're a person. What a shame, all for $145. Good thing this town has thousands of other choices who provide equivalent care with exceptional service. read more

Dr. Levy is wonderful- a rare breed these days. The industry is filled with unscrupulous dentists. He is extremely thorough, conscientious, good humored and his dental hygienists are EXCELLENT. One warning: he talks politics the entire time. I do not share his views, but i don't say a word because he's that good! Thank you Doctor Levy! read more

Outstanding professional care. Thank you! read more

We've been going to Dr. Levy (Alan) for 28+ years. He's gentle, caring, funny and accommodating and so much more. He does amazing work and ensures our comfort before he begins.

Dr Alan was referred to me by a long time and very trusted medical Doctor of mine. The weight of that referral was huge-and very appreciated. Great guy and excellent work. Susan Griffin read more

I felt very welcomed and accommodated by Katie at the front desk. She got me in on a cancellation list. I have been very phobic of seeing a dentist in the past. Felt very comfortable and had a great experience with Dr. Levy. Highly recommend him! Kristen, the dental hygienist is excellent as well. I can't say enough good things about this practice. read more

My family has been going to Dr Levy for years, but no longer! He way overcharges for everything and knew I was paying cash since I lost my insurance. He could've given me a cash discount but didn't and instead charged me $400 for x-rays!! They're digital!! It's shameful!! He doesn't care about his patients! I should have realized bc he talks on both sides of his mouth being for our freedoms, but made all his employees take the vaccine or loose their jobs. He's that guy! All he cares about is himself! Don't get sucked in with his celebrity photos on his website either--it's all about the money for him. He's unscrupulous! read more

Dr Levy and staff are the best!! I've been a patient for over 10 years I would highly recommend them.

I didn't think places like this still existed in LA, with a family atmosphere and people who truly care. I'm so happy I found Dr. Levy! He is truly the GOAT of Dentists. read more

Allen is an excellent dentist. His hands are golden along with his astute mind! Personally I have had some very difficult dental issues that he took care of with ease. He is so confidant with his ability and skills, and that is truly a gift. I highly recommend Dr Levy without hesitation. If your dental issues are routine or highly complex, he's the one! read more

I like the dentist. I like the hygienists. Been with them for a year, but I will not be returning anymore. TWICE they mismanaged my appointment. A cleaning I had scheduled a few months backed, I arrived (20-30 min drive depending on traffic) to find that I was a month off. Even though I had called just days earlier to double check my time, apparently I heard the wrong month. I was almost positive I had heard correctly, but figured it must have been an error on my part. I was upset because it took an hour out of a day for no reason when I had a lot of work to get done that day. Then today, almost the same thing happens. This time, I had a cleaning appointment for June 23. Plans had come up taking me out of town that week. So, a couple weeks ago I called to reschedule and they said they could get me in on the 20th, which made me very happy that I could have it done before my trip. I then called again 2 days prior to my supposed appointment to double check that I had the time right. I show up today, June 20th and apparently my appointment was for AUGUST 20th. Even the receptionist who I'd talked to the 2 times i called before this appointment mentioned how I said "perfect!" when she gave me the appointment. Which I did. But why would I have been saying that perfect if I thought I had to wait another 2 months. Moreover, when I called 2 days ago to check the time, I wouldn't have mentioned the month, I'd have either said " what time is my appointment on Thursday?" Or " what time is my appointment on the 20th?" Since no one mentioned August, I would've still assumed it was June. So twice in a row I spent a pointless hour on the road because somehow I keep hearing the month wrong. So, I don't think it's me anymore, I think it's them. They are so busy that they can't even reschedule you till the time you're supposed to have your next cleaning, which is ridiculous. Stuff comes up all the time for everybody, and it's the dentist who's always telling you have to be in every few months. How can you expect that of patients if they can't even reschedule a few weeks in advance, without being able to get you in for a few more months. Lastly, they could've made things right by just squeezing a patient in, but apparently this dentist doesn't care about customer service. I'll also add that when I recently rescheduled, if the receptionist DID say "August 20" she didn't say it in such a way as to"sorry but I won't be able to get you in till August," she simply said "I can give you August 20," which would explain why AUGUST didn't register for me. Who would have expected a reschedule to be 2 months out? Another addition. The receptionist was nasty about the incidents on both occasion. No empathy. Was happy to make me look like an idiot. And when I asked if there was any chance to squeeze me in sooner, she didn't even look at the calendar, just immediately said they're booked for months out. read more

Dr. Levy is the best dentist ever! And I've seen a LOT of dentists. He has reformed my mouth to where I finally am not embarrassed to smile. He guaranteed I would love my smile, and I LOVE MY SMILE! Not only is he good at what he does, he is funny, cute and has an awesome staff! Katie and Tracy, as well as all the other girls whose name escape me at the moment are all awesome. You will NEVER go anywhere else, if you see Dr. Levy. [he also has a great team of other types of dentistry, so you don't NEED to go anywhere else, it's a one stop shop! And they are all good!] read more

Outstanding care. Skilled, and caring dentist. Wonderful office staff as well. Highly recommend.

I'm not sure why I'm even writing this review... everyone else has said it all. Dr. Levy has a solid five-star rating because he and his office are great. Very accommodating, quick to refer you to specialists outside his office if that is what is needed. My teeth are going to be challenging for any dentist (I got in the wrong gene pool.. and I dove into the shallow end teeth first)... so it's difficult to write a rave review for someone who is always giving me bad news. But it is through my challenging dental situation that I have come to respect Dr. Levy's skill. And it's the whole package... nice people in the office, appointments happening on time... FREQUENTLY accommodating last-minute calls when some dental crisis befalls me. "Come on in... we'll get you taken care of"... and they do. read more

Dr. Levy has been my dentist for some twenty years. I can't imagine a better experience can be had. He's adept, hilarious, and one of my favorite people. Needless to say, I will never ever need another. My 13 yr old daughter has been his patient as well, ever since the days of baby teeth. You won't meet a nicer man, or better dentist. read more

I've interviewed with more than just a few dentist and I found Dr. Alan Levy to be the most competent, professional and truly likable. His staff has always been courteous and respectful. I've also truly appreciated Dr. Levy's honesty which he has alway placed above procedures! He's the best! read more

Dr. Levy has been my dentist for over a decade, and I've never had any problems or issues. In fact, I travel 300 miles each way, from Northern California, just to make sure Alan does all of my dental work! He's got a very good bedside manner, is HIGHLY skilled, and really cares about his patients. Dr Levy and his staff are an excellent dental practice. His staff isfriendly and attentive. I really think as far as dentist go, Alan is 10 out of 10! read more

P Another great teeth cleaning! Everyone's always friendly and supportive. I've had lots of work done and the environment makes it less stressful. read more

Where to begin. Alan Levy is by far the best dentist in the world. He is kind, smart, knows what he is doing, prepared, detailed and a lot of fun. Going to Alan is just so easy. He explains things with no pressure attached and talks everything thru. In addition, his staff some of which have been there forever are a pleasure to do business with. Both Sonia and Kirsten are just lovely people and Katie and Ella are also a huge help. If Alan is not sure he will send you on to the next guy without reservations which speaks volumes about his comfort and security about what he does. In all these many years I have never heard anyone say or write anything negative about Alan or his staff. Anyone who goes to him will be nothing but happy. One in a million and we are all pretty lucky we found him. The best!!!!! read more

There is no better dentist period. Dr. Levy does the best work, he is not some cut rate dentist. He is the Rolls Royce of dentists, the Mortons Steak House of dentists. He has been our families dentist since 1990. I would never go anywhere else. BTW I hate dentists, he makes it very easy to go to where my worst nightmares occurred as a child. I never am kept waiting for long either. read more

If you feel nervous, embarrassed, scared, etc. about your current dental situation take a deep breath and call Dr. Levy. When it comes to dental work....well....Ugh. I have had both good and not so good experiences. Never ever have I felt more comfortable with a dentist! No judgement, genuinely cares about his patients, super skills AND has a great sense of humor. All the staff there from the front desk and beyond = fantastic! read more

Dr. Levy and his staff are TOP NOTCH! This guy is an incredibly talented pro... AND a menchy good, HONEST person. Dr. Levy never pushes to do dental work unless it is absolutely necessary. In other words... This dentist doesn't look at my mouth as a cash register. Dr. Levy is also very generous with his time and truly cares about the comfort and satisfaction of his patients. I am thrilled to know I FINALLY have a dentist on my side who I can 100 percent trust like family. PLEASE NOTE: Dr. Levy is new to Yelp. So, don't let the lack of reviews here fool you. There's a reason he's "THE dentist to the stars!" read more

Oh Where to start. lol Dr. Levy is the best dentist I have ever seen. lol now with that being said he has also been my dentist for most of my life 30ish years. He is honest, friendly, and treats you like you're part of his family. I suffer from severe anxiety sometimes and that is always something that I worry about, but when I see Alan, he always puts me at ease. I really don't need to leave a long review here. Simply put 1. Honest, Caring, and Friendly 2. Will always make the time to see you in an emergency 3. His staff (too many to name) is amazing to say the least. 4. He is always booked - that is a good thing in my eye's and is worth the wait to see Dr. Levy 5. lol My favorite thing are his masks. Since I was 5 or 6 he has had me laughing. 6. He really deserves 10 starts. here 7. It is very hard for me to give anyone 5 stars. If you look at my reviews you will see I only have 1 other 5 start review. I trust Alan not only with my teeth but with my life. Alan to you your staff. I personally want to Thank You, for the great care. You all are awesome. Hey Alan if you see this... your staff should get a raise lol. :-) read more

I had been looking for a good dentist for awhile, and was recently referred to Dr. Levy by a good friend. I've been very impressed so far - his staff is definitely attentive and professional, and Dr. Levy himself takes the time to get to know you and make you feel welcome and comfortable. I would definitely agree with the other reviews posted here - Dr. Levy does seem like a top notch dentist and I am very glad I was referred his way! read more

Thank you Dr. Alan Levy and team. Very thorough and professional.

I've been to Dr. Levy's office twice now. The first time was for a consult for my TMJ. I forget how long he sat with me but it was more than enough time to ask him every question I could think of. He not only answered me but explained and made sure I understood. He referred me to a doctor who specializes in mitigating the type of issues I have with my jaw. My second visit was for a cleaning with Kathleen. She adjusted for my jaw and teeth sensitivity and also gave me lots of advice on TMJ. Beyond being professional and knowledgeable, the staff are kind and take their time with their patients. read more

This provider has served my family flawlessly for over 30 years, Dilligent, caring, and has come to the rescue more times than we can count. Alan is a class act and a fine dentist and a real good man. Recommend without hesitation. read more

I have been going to Alan's since I was a little boy. Seriously. I'm 36 so I'd say about 35 years I've been going and he and his team and nothing but always incredible. I have lived all over, including France, and I have never once gone to a different dentist. I always fly back to make sure only he and his team touch my teeth. Not sure if I can express anymore deeply how great they are, but there you have it. If you live in the Valley, (or dont!), and need a dentist, you just found the perfect place! read more

I don't usually write reviews, however I felt this was a good opportunity to add value. I visited Dr. levy on the recommendation of friends for a likely broken tooth or root canal- nothing fun! I also saw two other dentists. I chose Dr. levy and his team for a variety of reasons- I felt comfortable, their offices were updated and the staff were freidnly and upbeat. But I also ended up needing a more complex oral surgery and the surgeon on the team (Shamefully can't recall his name) provided an analysis and procedural recommendation that was comprehensive and made sense. erm. They checked my insurance and said I was covered and provided me with an estimate for the total process. I went through the process - it was painless in the chair, and comfortable. They took great care to make sure I was comfortable and well taken care of in terms of someone to take me home, etc. They babied me for lack of a better term and I am a dentaphobe for some reason, and so this was appreciated. I had to return for several follow-up visits to check on the progress of the surgery and remove the covering finally. In the end, I was quite satisfied. The only reason I didn't give a 5-star review is because there was miscommunication with regard to what would be covered by insurance. I subsequently got a bill for an amount that seemed like almost the full amount of the procedure - as if my insurance covered almost nothing. I inquired about it and after discussing it, they explained that the insurance didn't cover as much as expected because they performed two procedures at once, and that this was done as a medical decision in my best interest - the thinking being that less surgery is better than more surgery or something to that effect. I certainly am not one to argue with that- and appreciated their explanation after the fact, but was upset that nothing was said prior to the surgery and I therefore had no chance to think about the cost or compare options. In any event, rather than turn it into a whole big deal, they were very gracious and agreed to reduce the remaining cost in half which was both professional and reasonable and much appreciated as a sign of their commitment to their patients and integrity as a "business." So, I'm giving them a 4 instead of a 5 so hopefully some people will read this an understand that they are actually top notch! And yes, they are fun and funny too! read more

I was extremely lucky to see Dr. Alan Levy yesterday, who is the very definition of a mensch. I don't even live in the area, and he prevented a painful dental problem from becoming really serious! I was in the Los Angeles/San Fernando area for meetings yesterday, and my tooth hurt--the upper left molar that is furthest back in my mouth. I was able to see Dr. Levy on essentially no notice because is a friend/colleague of my business partner's. After doing thorough x-rays and using a high resolution in-mouth camera, Dr. Levy diagnosed (and showed me!) that my molar is cracked. My now EX-dentist had covered part of the crack with a filling, but the untreated crack resulted in a 12-13 mm abscess and 2 fistulas. Gross and OUCH! Dr. Levy recommended that this tooth be extracted....SOON before the infection affects my sinus and bone. He did not push for an implant, because there is insufficient bone and because the molar on my lower jaw will still be functional. Dr. Levy also recommended that the extraction be done by an oral surgeon and not by a general dentist (like himself) due to the proximity of the tooth (and the infection) to the sinus and the resulting risk of complications. To complete my unscheduled appointment, Dr. Levy looked into scheduling and referrals for oral surgery. He also immediately wrote me a prescription for a 10-day cycle of antibiotics (Amox-Clav 875-125 mg, BID). I was also given PeroDex rinse, which I have started using. Hopefully this clears up much of the infection prior to extraction and will shorten the post-operative recovery period. Pretty good treatment of a non-patient! I have since scheduled my extraction with a local (San Diego) oral surgeon. In the meantime, my pain has lessened, and I am grateful for Dr. Levy. I would give him 10 stars if I could. Wish I could find a dentist half as good as Dr. Levy near me. read more
