I have a motto I use to judge a medical office. You can judge the care and attention you will get from the initial interaction with the person at the front desk. I appreciate how knowledgeable and skilled everyone is. They are kind and always answer my questions. I shopped around and am glad I decided on this office. read more

Long Beach Orthodontics - New aligners - Orthodontists Near Me - Long Beach, California

Above and Beyond as a new patient, I have never ever experienced where you not only see but hear in their voices how all the staff loves their job where everyone is very happy - that passes on the customers. Starting with Marisol who sched me as soon as 2 days away, and me calling the next day asking if I can go sooner, and Mayra emphatizing how im in so much pain bumped me to the very same day of my 2nd call instead of the following day. Soon as I got there, I saw so many people in the lobby and I thought this would take forever, but i could see people were being called in one after another. Lots of people have gone inside within the same hour because they were there for Braces. However, mine was an emergency appointment for the general dentistry services which involves first visit x-ray, consultations, in my goal of having tooth extraction. Vero in the front desk comforted me as she knew I possibly would wait a bit since I'm not a regular appointment. She was fun to talk to and all of them in the front desk were very friendly. I then found out there was only 1 dentist on duty when I was called in, separate from their behind the front desk are 6 dentist chairs lined up like gym treadmill or exercise bikes, that was for their braces customers. What a sight to see, all their equipment were so very new and advanced. The entire office is quite cold like being aboard an airplane cold. Further inside is the general dentist side and I counted at least 8 open dental rooms maybe more, at least 5 or 6 of them with patients for 1 Super Dentist. Next I met Michelle, dental assistant who did my all my x-ray and prepping. This was the very first time ever I had an x-ray where I didn't gag, normally the x-ray film packets are so very large and intrusive that I always end up gagging, this was probably half size of a credit card clipped into a handle and being held in one hand by Michelle and with her other hand, a portable hand x-ray gadget that you'd think you were in a 90's star trek episode. It's that high tech. Plus the all around 3-D imaging x-ray machine where you stand is also there just a tad bit more high-tech than what we had in the military. I almost wanted to be beamed up to an starship. So all 6 maybe even more patients were being handled by 1 amazing and beautiful on duty dentist Dr. Golshan who gave me the initial consultation. A very young lady I thought was in her mid 20s where later I found out she's actually 31. Most of the ladies there looked like they were in their early to mid 20s yet some were actually in their late 20s and early 30s. Next I met with Miss Mickey who gave me the cost breakdown of options and even helped me decide by providing feedback what if I get this and skip that etc, and all this without feeling pressured. She then reworked the numbers to lower my total cost based on my preferred choices. Usually other dental offices like the one I've been loyal to for over 11 years often gives me some pressure to follow what they want so they can get more from the insurance yet this office does not. From 2 pm even with 6-7 patients or more before me who are on actual appointments, Dr. Golshan started with me around 420pm or so... and she goes around patients whenever there is an opportunity of a short pause like waiting for anesthetics to take effect, she then works on another patient. This is an amazing multi-tasking Superwoman dentist that I've never expected, I mean to me she's a Supergirl and belongs in Fantastic 4 as she really amazed me with all her dental skills and great bedside manner. My last dental office for over 11 years handled about 6 maybe 7 total patients for the entire day with 2 dentists on duty. Dr Golshan was handling more than 7 and that was from the time i got there at 2pm so most likely she had done more earlier. She was very efficient, having an all hands helpful staff to her, even while patients are being worked on. You hear very fun music and all staff even patients are reacting to the energy, the vibe and the music - this was highly unusual for a dental office. The staff even comforted me from the cold temperatures by letting me use 2 blankets and even dimmed the lights while I wait for the doctor as she is multitasking where I got some rest. This is also the very first dental office not only having high tech advanced equipment, but this office has a lot of light. Great fun decorated environment short of not having an aquarium in the lobby, i mean you feel like your in an aquarium water theme park as far as the decorations and surroundings. I do wish I had met one of the two founders, Dr. Abaro in person from what I hear, he has 16 dental offices and all these great staff working for him, gives me the impression he is a very very good dentist. I'm pending to schedule for my cleaning, filling and partial teeth fitting/fulfillment. Thank you to all the staff and specially Dr. Golshan read more

I had the pleasure of being a patient here for Spark Aligners (basically Invisalign). I had my consultation with Dr. Hughes and she did a really good job at throughly answering all of my questions to help me make the choice that best suited my lifestyle. I really admire her background as an engineer and her passion for orthodontics. It's clear to me that she is very knowledgeable on this topic. Everything about the program was hassle free. I had no issues with payments or scheduling and communication was clear from the front office staff, especially Tina. During the first week of my treatment, I had a few of my attachments come off and it took only a phone call to get an appointment within a day. It was a lot like a pit stop, and Dr. Hughes also explained some of the science behind how the binding works and what could've compromised it. From my small sample size, I've seen that Dr. Hughes is more available on Tuesdays and Dr. Lee is more available on Thursdays. I've had a handful of Thursday appointments and have had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Lee. He seems to be one of those people who gets along well with everybody. I've personally only had a few interactions with him but each time it has been fun. He's fun to talk too and seems to always be in a good mood. All of the other staff members (nurses? technicians? not too sure about terminology) who operated on me were professional and did great. One thing that really impressed my was that after my first 29 weeks of treatment, I was scheduled to take another scan and get a few more sets in to further perfect the treatment. However, due to life events, I opted to finish the program and move on to retainers. I appreciated that they were flexible enough to allow to do this and didn't try to guilt me or push back against my decision. They just processed my remaining balanced, scanned my teeth, and had a set of retainers for me over the weekend. This super quick turnaround time on the curveball I threw at them was impressive. I'm not the most well versed on orthodontic technologies, but what I see in this office looks state of the art. The X-Ray machine is a lot less torturous and clunky than the ones that I am used too. The mouth piece is more comfortable, they have a lot more control on the positioning of my head, and there's some automated revolution instead having someone point and run back for 20 times while my jaw slowly morphs to become like one a deep sea fish would have. The scanner that they used to scan my teeth was super cool. I was able to look at the screen and see my teeth pop up on the computer in 3D. When a spot doesn't show up, they just go back to the location and it magically fills in the correct location. If this was 10 years ago at a different location, I swear the entire thing would've restarted but this machine/software is witchcraft. I'm pretty sure I spotted some 3D printers in the same room as the X-Ray machine. I think they 3D printed my scanned teeth to make a mold and thermoformed some plastic over it to make my retainers. This in-house manufacturing would explain how they had such a quick turnaround. Sorry for nerding out. The only slightly negative thing about this location is that when arriving from the west on Spring St. Turning in to the location is a bit tricky for just the very first time because there is an entrance to the Chase bank right next to the entrance to the plaza. Parking doesn't really get dicey, even when students at the neighboring high school (Millikan) get out because parents aren't allowed to park in the lot. Overall I've had a fantastic experience with this orthodontist and I am satisfied with my treatment and how I was treated. read more
