Always an amazing experience with Dr Alavi. Dr Alavi is wonderful. She makes you feel so comfortable and explains everything as she works. The staff is very nice and welcoming. This has been the best dental experience I've ever had. Everyone is friendly, knowledgeable, and supportive. Highly recommended read more

I had to perform a crown build out for a root canal. I emailed and called the office twice before someone got to me. I guess they didn't accept new patients at that time or the dentist was on vacation. Once I was able to get connected to a live person (two weeks later!) I was provided with an estimate which was nearly 2X more than my regular dentist! I was referred to this dentist by a trusted source, and they pointed out that she's super meticulous. I guess you pay extra for extra. read more

Farida has been my dentist for over 6 years and I absolutely admire what she does, Farida really take care of patients. For instance, I was grinding my teeth a lot and Farida recommended getting a night guard, having a night guard has been revolutionary in my life and has let me to have a much healthier teeth! read more

Dr. Alavi is amazing. She is a highly skilled dentist. She is very gentle. Throughout my dental work she constantly made sure I was feeling comfortable. She has great bedside manners. Her office staff are nice and organized. Highly recommend her! read more

Dr Alavi is so nice and caring! She is so much into details and I love how much time she puts to your dental health! She use the best materials and I have never had any issues during the past 3 years that I started with her! I love her team as well! They are so professional and friendly! read more

While Dr. Alavi and her staff are extremely kind people, I cannot refer other patients to Dr. Alavi's office for dental services. My 1-star review is for two reasons: 1) Dr. Alavi is not skilled at handling patients with dental anxiety, and will even discount dental trauma in a way I found to be quite patronizing; and 2) my new dentist confirmed Dr. Alavi's approach to treatment was extraneous, and that the treatment she indicated I needed immediately (e.g., a $500 mouthguard and multiple cavities) were in no way necessary at this time. Remember that dentistry is business too. We want to be able to trust our doctors, and I don't feel that Dr. Alavi is doing right by her patients. read more

Dr Alavi & her Staff are AWESOME. I'm a left brained silicon valley type...and I notice the little details every time I go to a doctor or dentist. I gotta say..Dr Alavi & her Team deserve an applause. Why do they rock? Well, for one I just had a change of insurance and wasn't sure whether my plan was an HMO or PPO. I called her office and Dr Alavi's Staff got my info..and handled everything else. Next, I go in for my filling (running a few minutes late)..I'm greeted with a smile...taken to the dentists' chair and the Staff applied a light ointment to my gum where they were going to give me the anesthetic in a few minutes. It tasted like Pina Colada...and guess what...it made all the difference. No pain at all. Thats brilliant! And of course for the coupe de grace Dr Alavi again wowed me with her wonderful service. The devil is always in the details...did the dentist communicate each step of the way? Was she gentle, yet on point with each stroke of the drilling machine? Was she detail oriented? Did she get my bite down perfect? Did she make sure the whole procedure felt right every step of the way? YES..she DID! Hence Dr Alavi & her Staff deserve 5 Stars. They stand out for honest caring & excellent service. And they're a fun bunch. If you're looking to find your dentist...look no further. Give her a try. And later...come back and thank me (just kidding...you don't need to). read more

I have been going to Dr. Alavi for 10 years and have always enjoyed her and staff's attentive care and professionalism. I highly recommend Dr. Alavi! read more

I and my husband had our treatment from Dr Alavi and from her office crew. She did a great job at fixing problems at my upper jaw.She was so careful at every detail with my teeth. She helped me gain my smile back. Thank you so much. I strongly recommend Dr Farida and her team to every one. They are professionals and enjoying what they are doing.

She's great and so is her staff! I walk in fall asleep (due to the chill music, not any gas) and wake up with a postcard for my next appointment. Once I went in to another place for a cleaning, and the girl that was doing it mentioned that my fillings looked spectacular! Not so much a compliment to me but a testament to Dr. Alavi's skill. read more

Great dentist and very friendly staff. I've been coming for a couple years and Dr.Alavi was great. I've had a crown plenty of fillings done, and a night guard fitting. She did an amazing job and always makes sure you don't feel any pain. Cleanings are great too, and their office keeps track of the gap in your gums (where food can get stuck) which I haven't seen other dentists do. read more

She knows what she is doing and she is so good at it. I wish there was more than five stars. She is so patient and If you ask her a question she will reply with a smile on her face. read more

Absolutely great. I hate dental work but I enjoy coming here all the time. Music selection is a nice touch. Dr. Alavi and all her staff are professional, personable, and courteous. They helped me to brush and floss properly and in 6 months (and 3 visits) I went from borderline gingivitis to near-perfect gums. First dental office that made me feel good about myself and my oral hygiene habits (which are improving). read more

Dr. Alavi, for 20 years, has taken such amazing care of me. She shows her knowledge as well as her ability to fit you in her busy schedule. I cannot thank her enough. Henry read more

I love dr. Alavi, she is such a caring and a professional doctor. Sitting in her chair is as good as it can get when it comes to dentists: pain free treatment, extremely considerate of how you are doing and if you feel ANY discomfort. Her staff is also very attentive, efficient and caring. The whole atmosphere of Dr. Alavi's office is relaxing and comforting, and the end results are fantastic, I couldn't be more pleased with them! The only reason I'm giving a 4 star review is that sometimes it's hard to reach the office and make the appointment, since the doctor and her team work 4 days per week, exchanging Mondays or Fridays off. That can be sort of confusing and hard to keep track of, and I believe is worth mentioning here. Other than that, a truly positive overall experience! read more

My favorite dentist EVER! Dr. Alavi is straightforward, careful, precise, gentle and extremely friendly. I've been going to her office for 11 years and know most of the staff, and they are just as delightful! Any time I'm asked for a dental referral, I always fully recommend Dr. Alavi. read more

Dr Alavi is the best dentist I have ever encountered. She has a wonderful bed side manner; kind, caring, always asking if I am OK? She is brilliant, superbly skilled in her craft, and gives the best painfree shots ever! She keeps me informed and educated about her procedures while working on me. I have walked away from her office, after much teeth work, and still when the numbing agent wears off I have yet to experience any post operative pain. Clearly this is due to her caring, gentle ways, and her exceptional skills at getting the job done beautifully Dr Alavi and her staff have transformed the way I hold dentistry. Where once it was the place I would LEAST like to be, today I find myself looking forward to my next appointment. I feel so cared for with Dr Alavi!! read more

I wish I could give them 10 stars! When was the last time, if EVER, you looked forward to a visit to your dentist?!?! Dr. Alavi is very sweet and effective in explaining the situations. She's pretty too! The ladies in that office are ultra efficient and friendly and polite and everything else nice. Not to mention uber professional! Dr. Alavi is also very thoughtful - I've never had anesthesia with deep cleaning, usually I had to slog through the discomfort and pain, but here, everything possible was done to make sure I had no pain, not even any discomfort. Thanks!!! read more

Love her and her crew. So professional and friendly! She is caring and spends time with you.

Dr. Alavi and her staff are so kind and caring. I used to be afraid of dentists and Dr. Alavi was patient and spent more time with me compared to other dentists. She was very thorough and explained everything. When I have any issues, I can trust that their team will handle it in a professional and courteous matter. Really dentistry as good as it gets! read more

I truly hate going to the dentist. I was referred to Dr. Alavi by a coworker. She is very close to my office and decided to go see her. She is very gently and her staff is very nice and helpful. My husband who hates going to the dentist now goes regularly and loves her and her entire staff. She is gentle, knowledgeable and answers all of my questions. If you are looking for a dentist that is super nice and gentle, this is the dentist for you. read more

Every time I enter this office, I get the same treatment as the previous time. First of all, the staff are so friendly. They make you so comfortable like being at home. Secondly, the dental treatments I get are the best and I know that I do not have to return for the same issue. Thirdly, Dr. Alavi is very caring and handles the dental work in a way that I feel so comfortable and relaxed. Her dental work is done in a professional manner. I have never gone back for a poor job, but to praise her and her staff for all the good work they have done. I recommend her to everyone out there who are seeking a professional and caring dentist. read more

My first dentist as a child was a sadist and a fraud. He would withhold the Novocaine and still charge for it. My second dentist was ok, but he retired in a manner that was dishonest to maximize his gain. My opinion of dentists was very low. I was lucky to find Dr. Alavi, I've been going to her for all my dental needs for over ten years. She was trained at UCB (if I recall correctly) and very competent in her work. She has a well trained staff and the office is efficient - never had any long waits. read more

My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Alavi for many years and we think that she and her staff are great! She is extremely gentle and is very much a perfectionist when it comes to her work. Treatment plans are well thought out and keep what's best for the patient as a priority. The office is always clean and relaxing. We highly recommend Dr. Alavi! read more

Dr. Alavi is awesome! She is great at her job. She is kind and caring. She has a great sense of humor. I used to hate going to the dentist but not any more! I look forward to my visits to Dr. Alavi's office because of her amazing bedside manor and her super nice staff! I have recommended friends to Dr Alavi and once you see her you will never go to another dentist (unless you need to see a specialist....her referrals for specialists are amazing too!) read more

Very skilled dentist and team with clear communication skills. Compassionate and professional. Excellent as a whole.

I've been going to Dr. Alavi for all my dental needs for years, and have always been happy. She is good at her work and very attentive to details. read more

Nothing bad to say about this woman she is amazing inside and out! She is so caring, attentive, and genuine! I recommend anyone to go to her! One of the best people I know! read more

Dr. Alavi and her team are truly the upper crust of their profession. The patients are always greeted with smiles and a genuine feel for your pain, needs and wants. Dr. Alavi is a total perfectionist and she goes the extra mile to make everything painless and the outcome perfect. My daughter has been her patient since age 3. She told me one day that she was surprised that her other classmate's worse nightmare is going to their dentists! She is not only having a blast there being pampered but also comes back home with full-load of gifts! read more

Dr. Alavi is the best! I've been her patient since she opened her practice and she will be my forever dentist. Great dentist, great personality, great bedside manner, great staff (and a cute office). Can't say enough about her practice. Happy to have her as my dentist read more

Dr Alavi is truly great, I feel really lucky someone recommended me to her. Her team is super nice and has been with dr Alavi for a long time. I had a lot of work on my teeth and couldn't be happier. Aside from being an excellent and super precise professional, she's also very trustworthy. Some dentists treat with the intention to have you come back for bigger issues, dr Alavi clearly has the patients best interest in mind. Shes very careful and tells you what's going to happen during the whole procedure so you're always prepared and I was always relaxed. Highly recommend her. read more

I have been going to Dr Alavi's office for 7 years. Have nothing but wonderful things to say about Dr Alavi and her dental Hygienists, She is a pleasure to work with and extremely detail orientated. Dr Alavi is caring and professional. She really does great work However the last few years, I saw a lot of turnover over there. When it comes to scheduling, billing and customer service. My experience has not been good. The receptionist is not organized, always forget things, often call last minute to schedule, then cancel. She is friendly but can barely get anything done. Insurance info was not updated even after I gave it to her multiple times. I would get a call one year later asking why insurance rejected the payment, well because you never updated the insurance info. One time I ask for my receipt (Phone calls and emails all went unanswered for weeks until my husband showed up at their office for service). Recently my husband changed employer, there are still funds in FSA. I asked the receptionist to use the funds to pay for previous services Dr Alavi performed months ago (I never see the bill) . She promised over the phone that she will get it done the same day -- forgot it again, We only found out after the card expired. My husband and I are likely to continue seeing Dr Alavi because of her outstanding work but I just hope she put some emphasis on the business side of the things, and recognize customer experience is key to the success. I certainly do not want to get anybody in trouble but hope my honest feedback will help Dr Alavi's business improve and thrive. Sincerely, Jenny read more

She's absolutely amazing! She takes amazing care of you and all the treatment is extremely pain free. I'm extremely pleased with her and I'll always go to her for all my dental treatments. She's professional and caring. Just close your eyes and go to her -- you won't have to worry about anything. read more

Dr. Alavi is the best dentist. I have been her patient for over 17 years. My husband sees her and my sister and brother in law. She is so kind, friendly, and professional. Her staff is always so accomodating and I always look forward to seeing her every six months. Also, if there is anything bothering me Dr. Alavi is very thorough and is wonderful about referring you out if she thinks it is necessary or needs a second opinion. read more

Dr Alavi has a big time attitude once you start expressing opinions on your own dental care. She will even politely ask you to get out and go elsewhere if you don't completely concede to her whims on what all procedures to do on your teeth. She gives you the vibe that she owns your teeth and not you. I suspect she wants to up-sell you on non-existent cavity fillings and unneeded root canals etc. I would never go back. read more

Dr. Alavi and her staff are amazing! professional, kind and fun group of people. She is detailed and takes her time to make sure her patients get the highest quality of work. I highly recommend her to everyone. read more

Every aspect of this establishment could be described as going above and beyond the call of duty. Dr. Alavi is the absolute best. She knows what she is doing, she is honest, gentle, intelligent and kind. Her staff is amazing, her office is modern and welcoming. Love this place. read more

Dr Alavi and her staff are professional, friendly, and really know their stuff. Whenever I call to make an appointment and whenever I come in I'm greeted with a smile, and promptly whisked away to a thoroughly pleasant dental cleaning and check up experience. Dr Alavi and her hygienists are very good at explaining what they are doing and checking in frequently to make sure everything is ok and there is no pain (in fact, I have never had a dental experience with so little pain in my life). I am very pleased to have chosen Dr Alavi to be my family's dentist in this area! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Alavi for several years. I love her proactive approach. She recommends a course of action rather than letting things go till it hurts or you need a root canal. Also, she is a perfectionist when it come to the details of the work. She gets things to fit right and makes sure things are the right color etc. All the assistants and hygienists are experienced, professional and very nice too. She is the best dentist I've ever had, and I've had more than a few. read more

Dr. Alavi is an intelligent, experienced (extremely skillful and capable) and caring dentist. If you are afraid of going to the dentist, you won't need to be with Dr. Alavi. She, her office assistant Jane, and the rest of her staff will make your experience a pleasant and comfortable one. read more
