I LOVE Dr. Metias! For a few years I have been bouncing from dentist to dentist, looking for one talented, fair person who cared about me, and not paying off Medical School debt through me. But overpriced and uncaring practitioners was all I was finding. That all changed when I found Dr Metias. She's very talented and has a wonderful chairside manner, but she also listens to me, my concerns, and my situation. She knew the ins-and-outs of my insurance, and together we decided on a treatment that was right for me. As I left after our first meeting, I was so happy! At last, I found a Dentist I want to stay with the rest of my life. She (and her staff) really are the BEST! read more

Dr. Nagwa Metias is without a doubt the best dentist and find in a life time. My family has been her patient for almost 15 years now and each and every visit is greeted with professionalism, knowledge and kindness. We leave the office so very happy and pleased with every result. Venice Dental group has been our blessing. Thank you Dr. Nagwa and your precious team! read more

Nagwa Metias, DDS - Dr. Nagwa is one of a kind...bar none. Her amazing team are the best in the west. Being a patient at Venue Dental Group is s big blessing. - General Dentistry Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Dr. Metias is not only knowledgeable and quick, but also kinda and attentive. I came to get a crown two weeks ago, and I'm happy I did! She and her staff made me feel welcomed and taken care off. She also took the time to discuss different options to help me make the right decision. Im glad I came! read more

I have been seeing Dr. Metias for a few years now for a variety of treatments and her work has been the best! I have had many dentist and it's always been a cold experience your "in and out". Dr.Metias makes you feel cared for and explains everything in a kind way you can understand. She is honest about what you need and what you can wait for due to cost, that's rare! Recently, I called with pain and they fit me in the same day! She stayed past closing and pulled my tooth to make sure I would not go home and be in pain. The front office calls you to check in the next day (Letty your the best!) If your looking for an office that does great cleanings and great dental work with affordable prices who are kind and caring and make you feel like family than go to Dr. Metias. Ps. Easy parking is a bonus:) Thank you Dr. for doing great work I healed up great! read more

FINALLY the best dentist in Los Angeles has been found! For years I've been worsening my habit of biting the inside of my lower lip. It sands down my teeth, has misaligned the right side of my jaw and produced numerable migraine/tension headaches. I've tried everything to stop it, but the only thing that seems to weaken my habit is using a night guard retainer. Bigger Problem? - Even if you have a dental plan attached to your health insurance, mouth guards and night guards aren't normally covered. So after putting in more hours than I'd like to admit to searching for a dentist who does affordable, quality work, I found the Venice Dental Group. Dr. Metias remembers each client and treats them with the utmost care. I know I sound corny, but I really do enjoy going to the dentist now. I don't have to stress about high pitched drills or getting hustled for more procedures. They listen. They actually care. The staff always keep me happy and the low bill is even better! Since becoming a patient there, I've stopped waiting until the holidays to go see my family dentist at home. With fantastic prices, super friendly service, I feel comfortable.....comfortable at a dentist office. I feel like I'm among family already. read more

Nagwa Metias, DDS - Dr. Metias Nagwa DDS - General Dentistry Near Me - Los Angeles, California

See all

Before coming here, I would read the negative reviews. Apparently Dr Metias has a rough hand. She also has a rough hand when it comes to dealing with Medi-Cal patients. As a Medi-Cal patient, I came here needing a root canal. Dr Metias and Jesse (who had an attitude from the get-go) filed the necessary Medi-Cal paperwork. It takes about a month to be approved. After waiting OVER A MONTH for the approval, it came in the mail from Medi-Cal. I then asked Dr Metias for an appointment and all of a sudden she's telling me it's "illegal" to work on my tooth because I had an open-and-med at another office. This is not something that she told me before despite the fact that I mentioned my open-and-med multiple times to her specifically. Sick and twisted people who jerk around those in need. She's going to try to reply to say that she didn't want to work on me because she was afraid of getting sick in wake of covid19. But that is not true. She lied and had several different stories before she told me that she didn't want to work because of the quarantine. This would be a good place to avoid. read more

I just had 3 root canals/crowns in a week. Dr. Matias and staff were fabulous, comforting, and caring. I love the office. Beautiful, clean and warm. Thank you for taking great care of my teeth read more

Amazing dental office, every single staff member is extremely patient and understanding. Dr. Metias is an awesome dentist who will definitely take care of you! She did an amazing job on my root canal/crown. She made the whole process as pain free as possible and made sure I was satisfied with everything. TLDR: If you come here you will be in good hands. read more

Do not go here. I used yelp and was burned. She up sold me to do three crowns vs only one needed In a row, (I only needed one but on the basis of matching color and fit she convinced me to do all three for 3 grand, 1 k each... After multiple return visits over pain problems continued tap tap sand sand, and a mouthwash rx, blah blah another dentist months after visit said all were bad fit and how horrible she was in not replacing within a timely manner I had to pay 5 grand to fix and replace her horrible work, plus the added PAIN PAIN of 2 newly needed root canals because of nerve damage re HER bad crowns... read more

I've been seeing Dr. Metias for over 3 years now! I just got lucky to be honest, she is the best dentist I've ever had. Most dentists will push you to replace old fillings and nag you for extra work you don't really need but not her! She's there to take care of you! She recently took care of my darling boyfriend who hasn't been to the dentist in years. I'm so thankful to know he is in good hands. All of the staff are so friendly and helpful. I have TMJ so I always get a little worried that I'll have a jaw problem during a cleaning but they are very careful to pause and give me breaks if I'm uncomfortable. They are all angels! read more

First off, as I was reading reviews for this dental group, I noticed at the bottom of the page that other reviews (POSITIVE) had been filtered! I'd just like to say Shame on you, Yelp!! Carrying on... I just got back from Venice Dental Group less than an hour ago to get my root canal done, and let me tell you, the staff is WONDERFUL, professional and caring. I hit it off right away with the office manager (she had a very welcoming smile and extremely friendly.) I was also here last Thursday for my daughters teeth cleaning as well, so I was a familiar face to them. My daughter enjoyed her experience here as well. This dental office made me feel welcome, unlike the other dentist office I went to two years ago where I had a negative experience, but that's another story AND another review [negative], which I'll get to later). Dr. Metias came into the lobby and greeted me and asked me what I came in for. I told her I had a broken tooth. She, too, was very sweet, funny and welcoming. Now, in this crud of an economy I had explained to her my finances. Granted, their pricing for the procedures were a lot reasonable compared to the other dental office, I felt comfortable with the payment plan. Although I needed a couple more work done, I asked if I could do each procedure at separate times and they said what ever works for me. I didn't feel forced to do ALL procedures, but I knew I had to get the root canal done, as it has been long over due. As for the dental assistant, she was just as sweet and friendly. She gave me a break down of what needed to be done as well as the pricing. There were a couple of times where I didn't understand the financial part of it but she broke it down to me clearly. I left that dental office worry free and happy. I would definitely come back here again. read more

Dr. Metias has been my dentist for the last 6 years, and for years to come, and that's for many reasons.. First let me say that I used to drive about 75 miles one way to go see her, now I only drive 45 miles.. and I look fwd to her healing hands every time. I don't usually hurry to book a dentist appointment, so whenever I finally do, it's for something big and painful, hopefully not too late by then: Root canal, loose teeth, deep cleaning, crowns, fillings, broken molars, etc. Dr. Nagwa cares. She listens carefully, and takes care of all details. Her recommendations and work has proven once and again, over the years, to be very efficient, reliable, painless, fast, and durable. She seeks my best interest, not her profit. And all with surprisingly low bills (I have no dental insurance), which add to my satisfied smile as I leave her office each time. Everything in her office is clean, neat and well organized, minimal waiting time, 10 to 15 min, all assistants are professional but very helpful and welcoming.. with a sweet serving attitude. You will also listen to some romantic songs of the 70's and 80's in the background.. read more

Ok, full disclosure first. I have a mouth that some dentists would alternately recoil from and salivate over. Recoil from because there's cavities, misalignments, gingivitis, and a couple rotted teeth. Salivate over because said deficincies translate into $$$ in business. After years upon years of neglect I was finally convinced to visit a different dentist because of a painful abscess. That particular dentist (Ray Farzam) drained the abscess competently but with considerable pain and afterwards the upselling was relentless and the quotes well beyond my budget (to the tune of $13,000 even with insurance) and furthermore, Dr. Farzam wasn't very interested in doing procedures in reasonably priced phases. I definitely felt like he was seeing me as a conduit for a down payment on his next Porsche than as a living, breathing patient (I know, I know, maudlin but gimme a break here.) I looked up other dentists on my HMO and I found consistently good things written about Dr. Metias here on Yelp so I made an appointment and I must say I'm extremely relieved and glad that I did. So far I've had and exam, X-rays, two extractions, and a periodontal deep cleaning and I've been very very impressed by their professional care and attention to detail. Every procedure thus far has been thorough, pain free, and done with a warm and inviting chairside manner. These ladies, from front desk to drill, care about the health and welfare of every patient who walks through their door, they really do, and they do it all without making the patient feel like an ATM. They'll tell you exactly what needs to be done without any superfluous upselling and they'll tell you exactly how much your copay will be before anything is done. I can honestly say that they're as ethical as they are skilled. For all you fellow folks who are nervous or even scared of the dentist let me assure you that Dr. Matias and Dr. Mary do everything in their power to make every experience as gentle and pain free as possible. I didn't feel any pain during the extractions or the periodontal deep cleaning. Thanks to Dr. Metias I can confidently say that my days as a dental chicken are over. This office is the real deal. read more

Wow, I had a wonderful experience at this dental office yesterday. I went in for an exam, x-rays, and cleaning using the coupon on their website. Dr. Metias did a great job and was a pleasure to deal with. It was a lot of fun talking with her. And the Dental Hygienist Jessie did a marvelously thorough job cleaning my teeth. She really took her time to see to every detail using the water pick, scaler, floss, and polish, and she even began by using a topical numbing agent on my gums! Amazing. This is an excellent dental office. read more

If you're looking for an honest dentist and a place where you feel like your with family I highly suggest you come here. Staff is very nice and friendly. Dr.metias is very nice and fast I had my tooth extracted and I felt no pain whatsoever.the next day I didn't even need pain killers. She's great!!! read more

Nagwa Metias, DDS - General Dentistry Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I picked the right place! (I picked this place from yelp review....) I made an appointment 2 weeks ago. I went there for general check up and cleaning. I had to take X-ray, it was a bit long process but nice piano BGM made me relaxed... After the x-ray, Dr Metias told me there was no cavities but one of crowns may need to be replaced in the near future, when I'm ready.... So she didn't force me to replace it or made me to make a decision now. Assistant? cleaned my teeth. I couldn't hear the nice piano sound, I was only hearing the "annoying Dentist noise" for a while.... T_T I wish I wouldn't listen to the annoying scraping Dentist noise someday... I have sensitive teeth (and eyes too @_@) but I didn't have pain while the cleaning. I drink Tea and Coffee everyday and my teeth was stained so bad ... -_-; But now, my teeth were really clean! Good job! And next day, they called and asked how my teeth are... Thanks for caring. I will go back for my crown when I'm ready ^_^ Peace. read more

The last time I had been to a dentist was when I was too young to remember. After getting insurance through my work and getting over my laziness, I decided to go see someone. I went to Yelp, as I always do, to find who to go to and I must say, without a doubt, I know I made the right decision. I don't often write reviews, but when someone in a profession that has so much potential to just ruin your day makes such a positive impression on you and treats you as well as Nagwa Metias treated me, you just have to come on Yelp and speak your mind. Overall, my experience was positive in everywhere and, long story short, this is definitely my dentist now and I will be coming back and back for all my dental work! read more

I have been a patient of Dr Metias for over 10 years. I just received a tooth implant today and I am so very pleased. NO PAIN! Dr Metias and the Venice Dental team is awesome. They are very professional, courteous and friendly. I highly recommend Venice Dental and their elite team. You won't be disappointed! read more

I had an exceptional visit to Dr Metias's Dental office. The first thing I noticed right when I  walked in the door was how clean and organized the office was. Her staff members were professional and friendly. I did not have to wait long to go in. And when I saw the doctor, she was very knowledgeable and I felt a personal touch. She was very good in her treatment. I did not have any pain even though i did a major procedure and took two teeth out. I would highly recommend Dr Najwa's office read more

First of all, I absolutely despise going to the dentist. I know that sounds cliche and nobody really looks forward to the experience - but the only time I have ever felt anything close to "anxiety" is sitting in that chair hearing the drill buzz. These ladies rules! Dr. Metias and Dr. Mary are both super sweet and gentle, yet you can tell they are total pros. They certainly help make the experience tolerable. Prices are great, far better than other quotes I have gotten around town. Family vibes in the office, Amal at reception is amazing. Highly recommended! read more

I had a very bad experience with Dr. Metias today. It is not about her skill but attitude. This is my first time to have dental service in the States. I am not familiar with the procedure of insurance company and dental office. In the beginning, Dr. Metias explained me the service and charges that I would receive today. In the back of my mind, I am not sure the reason why I need to pay so much money to do 2 fillings. The front desk lady patiently explained to me and even showed my insurance coverage from her computer. Information looked right. So, I signed the consent (service/charge agreement) and paid by my credit card before the service. Okey~ I was ready for service on the chair and waiting for the service to start. Dr. Metias came in and said if I am not sure about the amount of co-pay, I should check my insurance company first and reschedule another appointment. I agreed to do so. (Seriously, I appreciated she told me that.) But odd thing happened. They still wanted to make a copy of my consent that has my signature to agree to pay for the service today?! It doesn't make a sense for me. I am going to check with my insurance company first and reschedule, no service would be done today. They should give my consent back and cancel my credit card transaction. I refused them to make a copy of my consent. Next thing Dr. Metias did very surprised me. She rudely took the consent from my hand,** TORN IT UP in front of me **, yelled the front desk lady" give her quote" and storm out the patient room. What the hell is going on? Does any patient deserve this kind of attitude? She may be a doctor with professional knowledge and good skill. Certainly she doesn't have any patience and communication skill. I just want to give 1 star, however that very helpful front desk lady deserves 1. read more

She is very professional dr , very clean clinic , staff so friendly . So caring and understand what she is doing , she cares so much about patients and try not to make me feel any pain. Doesn't over charge or do unnecessary work. I highly recommend to come here read more

What can i say. Amazing, amazing, amazing. Its' true she really does care. She was really patient, was able to work with me on cost, we even kid around and laughed during the procedure. I'm going back Dr. Nagwa! See you soon! Gustavo C. read more

I was in terrible pain. Honestly it was the worst pain I have ever had in my life. I had constant pain on the right side of my face. About 10 years ago I had a root canal done in Mexico. Well little did I know years later it would give me an infection. Well luckily I came across Dr. Metias. I can NOT thank you enough for getting me out of pain. I wasn't able to sleep or go to work. She drained the infection a few times and re did my root canal. She was very patient with me, as I'm afraid of needles. It's been about month or so and let me tell you the pain is completely gone. Thanks to her and her team. read more

I've been going to Venice Dental Group for 5 years now. Both Dr. Nagwa and Dr. Mary are super sweet and very professional. They take care of their patients and make sure you understand what's going on. I had root canal done there. I didn't feel any pain and there were no complications afterwards. The clinic is also very clean and the staff is always friendly. Dr. Nagwa and Dr. Mary are the best, and they know what they're doing. Venice Dental Group has been the best experience I ever had. They are truly one of the best! read more

The entire crew is very loving and made me feel very warm. A special thanks to Dr. Nagwa, Latisse and rest of the staff. I appreciate your kindness. read more

My wife and I have been have been more than pleased with the Work Dr. Mary and Dr. Metias have performed on our teeth. They are very friendly people and also incredibly knowledgable in their work. The whole staff is very friendly and makes you feel right at home in their office. I highly recommend this place to anyone that needs any kind of work done on their teeth. read more

Got fired as a client when I asked her to guarantee some work I criticized cost me thousands afterwards.

This place is great. Friendly staff, parking, works with ins, and willing to negotiate any out of pocket costs. Dr Metias is a sweet lady and her staff is awesome as well. Her hands are gentle and she does great work, she's funny too! read more

Wonderful experience, Dr. Metias is super gentle and great at what she does. It's so hard to find a doctor who genuinely care about their patients these days! Simply the best Dentist in Los Angeles. Dr. Metias is friendly and has a great sense of humor. She has excellent staff and wonderful office manager. read more

Dentist best at all, Loving each patient, Very professional helpful people with her team

Dr. Metias and her staff are amazing! They are all very professional and polite and make you feel very comfortable. So glad I found this place to get my dental work done. Thank you Dr. Metias and crew!! read more

I've put off the dentist for years! I finally decided to take care of the necessary dental work last year and went to the dentist. After 1 visit I knew I did not feel comfortable there, I put off my dental work yet again. In January 2013 I conducted a very time-consuming research. I cross-referenced lists of hundreds of dentists from my insurance carrier with google, yelp reviews and other search engines and finally found Dr. Metias' office. Some Dentists' reviews are just downright scary! My experience with Dr. Metias has been great! I've had cleanings, fillings and awesome patient care. Too bad the only ortho work they do is with Invisalign. I needed the 'ol school hardware with the sorta teeth activity I have going on, so I had to go to a different office for my braces. The place is small but very clean, trust me I pay very close attention. The staff is super friendly, they're like a "family" there. Although I'm handling the Ortho work elsewhere the Dr.'s are always making sure that I'm ok and available for any questions or concerns. So glad I found them! read more

Dr. Metias is a very kind dentist. She truly cares for her patients and has taken excellent care of me. She is very experienced and really knows how to do root canals. She ensures you are comfortable and will follow along with you until the work is done. I highly recommend! Thank you Dr. Metias! read more

Dr. Nagwa Metias and Dr. Mary are very compassionate, and deeply concerned about the patients in their care. They are profoundly caring, and highly professional with a genuine concern for their patients, and most important, very skilled and confident and encourage their patients to do what is best at that moment. My father has been seen by Dr. Metias since 2012 not long after his wife, my mom, passed away. I was immediately drawn to her warm and deep caring nature and outgoing personality. I felt her to be highly trustworthy, and able to care for difficult dental issues. As one gets older, it is of high importance that the cleanings be done with care. My Father is healthier overall since going to her office, and most recently she and Dr. Mary, found a very scary situation, in that there were problems in the base of a tooth and she needed to do surgery and remove bone tissue. there was no hesitation and no delay. After the cutting and removing of unhealthy tissue, he was sutured, and my Dad recovered with antibiotics and just an ice pack to the area in the front that was involved. Though she ordered mutiple medications normal for this kind of oral surgery, to reduce swelling and decrease pain, and treat the infection, my Father and I didn't feel the need as he stated his pain was like a 3 out of 10, and eating and drinking surprisingly well. Thank you Dr. Metias as 3 out of 10 is amazing and speaks of her skills! I filled the prescriptions anyhow, just in case. The office girls, all of them caring, called to check up on my Dad every couple of days and at the appointed check up to remove the sutures, Dr. Metias, chose to accelerate what was already healing very well, another suturing which absorbed, and would not charge my Dad for that extra treatment, though he would have gladly paid. She and Dr. Mary literally saved my dad from becoming very, very ill as time is of the essence at his age, infections in the mouth are dangerous to the heart and immune system. Thank you Dr. Mary for finding the problem and cleaning my dad's teeth, and Dr. Metias for immediately and skillfully treating my Dad. He is so very fortunate to have had you both there on the same day, with no delays. read more

I have been seeing doc. Mary Youssef at the Venice Dental Group for about a year now, and she is the Best dentist ever! Everyone at the office is friendly, extremely helpful, and very professional. Wait time is 5 min. max any time I've visited. In general, all charges are explained and discussed up front which I appreciate. Doc Mary is not only sweet and patient, she knows what's best for my teeth. I have gotten hairline fillings and wisdom teeth extraction besides regular cleaning at this office. Doctor Mary was especially skilled with the teeth extraction, the pain and hassle was at a minimum post procedure. And, the staff made sure that they checked up on me each time afterwards. I felt taken care of here, and it's more than a dentist's office. Thank you! read more

This was my first dental experience since moving to the west coast a few years ago, so I was a little timid at first but Nagwa and her team really help alleviate any preconceptions I may have had before actually going in. The staff is friendly and they were also rather prompt. No terribly long waiting room down-times or anything. The routine X-Rays and cleaning went well and I would certainly go back for my next dental need. There is ample parking out front, too. read more

They are great, the doctor was really nice and the girl who did the cleaning to me was amazing, im really bad patient, and i have a really sensitive theeth, but she took her time to do it gentle, explained me everything she was about to do, and was very considerate and nice. On top of that, they did a really good job! 5 stars on service and 5 stars on the cleaning!! read more
