Obviously, I cannot stop glowing about Dr. Nelson Yen and the staff at his office. It looks like…read morethe bone medication that I was given over a year ago by my primary physician has had a horrible side effect as I've lost two implants. This experience has been painful, expensive and a bit traumatic. The "expensive" part could've been so much worse but Dr. Yen did everything he could to help ease the blow and it was so very much appreciated. The one saving grace in all of this is the way that Dr. Yen has taken care of, not only me, but also the situation. He has been so attentive and empathetic. I know that it upsets him as much as it upsets me, to have had to endure the loss of two implants. Dr. Yen was the one that brought to attention the fact that I was on medication that had this dire effect. I just never thought to put the two together. He listens so attentively and addresses any and all concerns... not to mention the highest quality of expertise and skill that he embodies. I truly wish that every doctor in my life could give me the care that Dr. Yen does. And I have to mention the entire staff in the office. Everyone is so courteous and kind. So, if you're looking for a periodontist, look no further. Don't hesitate to become a patient of his.

Dr. Yen is the best dental implants periodontist in SoCal, he has superb knowledge, skill and…read moreexperience, plus he's very witty and friendly, both my husband and I couldn't thank Dr. Brent Lew enough for referring such a caring, thoughtful and intelligent specialist for our dental implants consultation and treatment. We're also surprised and grateful that Dr. Yen, treated us like family, constantly trying to save us money, he tirelessly and patiently explaining to my husband, twice I think, how and why treating three different areas in one visit, saving at least $2,300 than what my husband's brother suggested better to split into three or more different visits. Dr. Yen called and checked on me @ 7:00 pm tonight, after he saw more patients after he extracted, cleaned, and bone grafted my #30 tooth, and cleaned #31 all done by 4:00 PM (in less than an hour), I am so impressed, he kept me informed of the different types of surgery procedures all throughout the surgery, I only felt very minimal pain from the local anesthesia needle, no pain, no swelling, no bleeding as far as I could tell, how's it possible? The lengthy instructions clearly stated to use ice packs, 10 mins on 10 mins off for first 24 hrs (3 packs were provided), then warm heat packs for next 24 hrs to break up swelling and minimize bruising, I tried for less than 30 mins while driving home post surgery, then stopped, since there's no need, no swelling, no bleeding, and no bruising at all. I am so thankful for Dr. Yen's incredible expertise, and Dr. Yen is so humble, he asked me how do I know he's done such an amazing job? I think it's quite self explanatory, when those possible bad/worse/worst scenarios are not happening to me, Dr. Yen has done a fantastic job! Right?

I had a very frustrating experience with this office. I waited months for my procedure because we…read morewere waiting on Medi-Cal approval, and throughout that entire time, communication was extremely poor. They repeatedly said they would call and follow up with insurance, but they didn't. We had to constantly chase them down ourselves just to get updates. After finally getting approved, they scheduled my procedure a month in advance--only to call the day before and cancel, saying the dentist was sick. They also said they couldn't reschedule at that time. What made things worse is when we called back with Medi-Cal on the line, they gave a completely different reason, saying the dentist had a family emergency. They couldn't even keep their story straight. This level of disorganization, lack of communication, and inconsistency is unacceptable--especially when patients are waiting months for necessary care. I would not recommend this office.

One year post op: I was warned that some gum might grow back and in all honesty I didn't continue…read moreto brush toward the gum with the special brush as I was instructed. But... The gum stayed put! I still don't have a gummy smile even at my highest smile. I don't feel self conscious when I smile any more. I finally finished my aligners just in time to get married. This surgery was an absolute blessing and I didn't have to think twice about my smile in front of our guests and the cameras. I am so grateful to Dr Gaffaney for what he's done for me! He's an amazing human being and a skilled surgeon.

Dr. Gaffaney is unprofessional and rude, likely misogynistic. I went for a consultation for a…read moreprocedure that was not familiar to me (though I do have experience with oral anatomy and structures due to my profession) and that seemed complex/intimidating so I had a lot of questions for the doctor. It's clear this man is not accustomed to being questioned because he met my questions with sarcasm/mockery and gaslighting, at one point telling me to "stop asking so many questions. I don't have time to give a full anatomy lesson to you!" And "There you go again.....more questions..." I don't care if any of this was said in jest; this is not appropriate care or bedside manner at all. His ego clearly operates at the forefront and he doesn't like that a woman had knowledge of the oral mechanism and has very specific questions. In terms of the office experience, the office is fine if it were 1983. Not a place I would want to receive oral surgery for concerns of cleanliness and lack of use of new tools, etc. Everything looked archaic down to the fans in the room. The front desk woman, who I think is his wife named Carrie, was polite if you don't cross her. But I had concerns with a bill received and then she was very rude and defensive on the phone- not answering my questions and dodging the point of my call. They did not inform me of the cost or the name of the consultation service that I received that day (which was actually an eval) and thus did not tell me they would be billing insurance or for how much. While I have dental insurance, I like to know what is being done and appreciate up front and honest care. I instead went to see Dr. Scheines in Cerritos for my gingival graft and she took over 40 minutes answering my questions alone and explaining the process of the procedure to me. Her office also gave a complete breakdown on paper of the cost of the evaluation, plus the cost of surgery, and what insurance would cover. I highly recommend her care and her renovated office feels clean and modern!

My husband saw Dr. Warner a total of four times. The first time was for a consultation, the next…read moretwo times were for periodontal scaling and root planing and the last time was to check the work done and recommendations for further work. He was charged a consultation fee for EACH visit, including the days he had the scaling/root planing done, which had already been discussed in the initial consultation. It was coded as a "consultation fee by other than the referring dentist", but HE was the referring dentist. Futhermore, he never got back to us regarding the additonal work he recommended in the consultation. One of the bills we received had so many corrections and crossouts it was impossible to dicipher what we owed. I suggest they hire a new billing person who is more competent and ethical.

He is incredibly kind, patient, and has such a calming presence. His staff and hygienist are just as amazing, literally the sweetest and most reassuring team. They never make you feel like you are asking too many questions or like you are a burden, which means everything when you have dental anxiety. The wait time is short, which helps so much with nerves, and Dr. Hakimi has the lightest hand when it comes to numbing. I honestly did not feel a thing. He is understanding, funny, fast, and efficient. He even gives you a stress ball if you need it. In my 32 years of life, I have never been this grateful to find a dentist I actually feel comfortable coming back to. Even when it is a traumatic sounding procedure, they make you feel safe and cared for. I have officially found my dentist for life.
