My family has gone to Dr. Alfaro, Dr. Leyva & staff for many years & many generations. I was always afraid of going to the dentist, not anymore. Dr. Alfaro & his staff are very professional, kind, understanding, informative. My teeth were well taken care of, not to mention I couldn't even feel pain. Always making sure you are comfortable. Can chew I drive quite a distance to the office, in fact it's a 2 hour drive. It's always nice visiting Dr. Alfaro & all his staff. Thank you again, Paula R & Family read more

Took my sister who has early onset dementia for a second opinion on how to treat NUMEROUS :( molar extractions. Dr Alfaro was extremely helpful in explaining options and was patient with my sister. He explained how her case would need to be referred to an oral surgeon, and yet performed a complete exam to identify and future dental issues. Once my sister's immediate extraction issues are addressed, will be returning to Dr Alfaro for my sister's future dental treatments. Also the entire staff was very helpful, professional and welcoming. Highly recommend. read more

Went to Dr Alfaro in an emergency. I had cracked a crown straight in half! I had never been there but they took me the same day. Everyone in there was genuine, warm, friendly and professional. Dr Alfaro explained everything to me and treated me without any pain or anxiety. I was so relieved and happy!!! I have a dentist in Newport that I've gone to for over 30 years but I think I'm making a switch to Dr Alfaro. They're really good -- try them out! read more

I had to have X-rays before my cleaning and the Tech (I didn't get her name) who did them was very good and fast and I told her so. It even included the panoramic X-ray that one has to get every 5 years. I then had my teeth cleaned by my regular hygienist Cecilia and she is always very good and is also very nice. Dr. Leyva popped in to do his usual check, which was also quick, and I was out of there in under 1 hour! It might have had something to do with my Friday afternoon appt, but worked for me! :-) read more

My wife and I have been going to Dr Alfaro's office since he took over from the preceeding dentist sometime in the 1980's when the office was on Merced behind Queen of the Valley Hospital. Dr Alfaro has always been very professional in his practice. The following is regarding my recent visit: The staff and the dentists are very professional and friendly. All staff greeted me and said as I left very sincerely. The hygienist I had was very nice and concerned about my comfort during the cleaning process. This office is always up to date regarding new dental procedures, techniques, and has the latest equipment. They follow very strict protocols to protect both staff and patients from Covid. read more

David W. Alfaro - Oral Surgeons Near Me - West Covina, California

Got over my fear of dentists thanks to Dr Dave I hate dentists. I hate visiting them. I dislike the poking and prodding. But what I hate more are cavities and other problems that make my teeth hurt. I started having trouble with old fillings (yes, apparently they decay too and often need refilling). So, I committed myself to a search and found a dentist that I actually LOVE. Dave is very gentle - an efficient and straightforward dental professional. He took one look at my old cavities and put me on an 8 month program to replace all those old silver(ish) fillings with modern porcelains. You may say - whoa dude - that's just cosmetic. But no - this was not just for looks. I had a pain that was misdiagnosed by two other dentists. Dr Alfaro took one look at the xrays and said - "my friend, we need to replace this one - look at the decay UNDER the old filling!" He and his assistant worked for 2 hours on that one filling. The rot went deep. But he managed to save the tooth, and now it even looks great. I open my mouth to laugh and I'm no longer exposing a maw with 30-year-old silver/black fillings. Instead - they look as natural as can be, and my mouth doesn't hurt. Now, if only I could get over my fear of dental hygienists. read more

I tend to have tons of anxiety whenever I go to the dentist! I've always gone with Dr. Leyva but due to covid I need an appointment ASAP so I was not picky on which dentist I saw. Let me say Dr. Alfaro was nothing short than amazing. First he plays amazing music and he was so gentle with a cavity filling that I didn't feel A THING! Usually I always have to get more numb than most people but one shot this time and I was good!! Didn't even feel the pitch of the shot!!!! During the filling he also let me know what each instrument would feel before he used it!!!! Not sure if he knew I have dentist anxiety but he was so warm and welcome to me! 100/100! read more

I hope I spelled that right ! But he's your go to guy ! And shout out to his teammate Norma! I'm forever grateful . They didn't rip me off . Price was very fair and got me urgently I can't thank them Enough! read more

We all value a bright shiny grill! However with age stains, decay and tooth loss is horrific. To my HORROR I lost my front tooth requiring a cadaver bone graft & must wait 1 year for an implant & crown. Dr. Alfaro is such an incredible caring, sympathetic compassionate dentist. He listened to my concerns & shared his personal tooth nightmares with me. The final result an exquisite retainer with a gorgeous snaggletooth that hides the gaping hole when I smile with confidence.10 Star dental practice with 10 star staff. Everyone makes you feel at ease and the service is impeccable! read more

As usual, even through COVID, I went in for my Teeth to be cleaned. I was greeted by an ADMIN person at the door, she went through several questions, and I was seated inside the Office Lobby. The inside was very clean and the Staff was friendly to me. Within a minute they called my name and I was in a chair getting ready for my teeth to be checked & cleaned. I have always been treated well buy this Group, If you do not have a Dentist, Dr. David Alfaro is the one to see. read more

I used to absolutely dread going to the dentist, and now I'm able to literally go with a smile on my face. I can't recommend this dentist enough! read more

Dr. Alfaro and Co have been taking care of three generations of my family, back to the days of Dr. Feedler! Dr. Alfaro is and has always been great to my family. And the office staff is THE BEST. The cleaning staff and assistance are EVEN BETTER. I have never had a more thorough, gentle cleaning than Barbara. Dr. Layva is just as good and totally different! His soft and gentle touch is great for the most tender mouth. So why no perfect score? The price. They take very few insurance, and even something as a basic cleaning is still $150 out of pocket if they will take your insurance. Again, to be fair, their cleanings are remarkably thorough and gentle. Larger items such as fillings, caps, crowns and root canals they are mostly price competitive (by which I mean outrageously expensive even with insurance, just like every other dentist I have been to). read more

Dr. Alfaro is a skilled and compassionate dentist. He is also a nice guy. I had many dental issues and Dr. Alfaro worked with me to save what few teeth I have left. He did not try to talk me into extractions and expenses dentures or implants; although I have had some done. I wish I would have found him 10 years ago, more of my teeth may have been saved and my overall dental health would have been better no question. I recommend him highly. His office is clean and staff helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. read more

Dr. Alfaro and his staff are super friendly, welcoming, and sweet. The office is huge, super clean, well equipped, and super organized.

They truly care about their patients. I love it here! read more

After a comprehensive cleaning I was examined by Dr Alfaro for possible problems. I was also treated to the best explanation of the effects of Sleep Apnea. My dentist made the need of a CPAP clearer then any other physician I had interviewed about my sleep Apnea. More importantly, the effects of not treating it. That's the kind of information everyone should get from their doctor, not necessarily their dentist. read more

I cannot recommend Dr David Alfaro and his staff enough. They are all wonderful and professional. I am always nervous when at the dentist and Dr Alfaro understands this. He takes his time and explains everything before proceeding. If he has to numb the area, he makes sure it is totally numb before beginning to work on that tooth. The assistants are excellent and willing to answer my questions as well. The front office staff is welcoming and friendly, while remaining professional. Thank you for taking great care of my teeth! read more

I only wish I would have started coming to Dr. Alfaro sooner because I couldn't be happier. And that's saying a lot for me. I always hated the dentist. Before Dr. Alfaro, I had been going to another dentist. I won't name him but he's in Covina. He was planning to do all of this work and it was going to be expensive but I was going along until he wanted me to put a 33% deposit for an upcoming appointment. We disagreed on that and a dental specialist I'd seen recommended Dr. Alfaro who examined me and performed the treatment for a fraction of what the other dentist was going to charge. Dr. Alfaro and his staff are awesome! Plenty of parking too! read more

I was in and out with consultation, cleaning, and a couple work related items I wanted to get done for a while.

I highly recommend and cant believe I'm saying this but, look forward to my next visit! Lolol read more
