    I never thought I would get to a point where I felt emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed, and…read morecompletely unlike myself. There were days when anxiety, stress, and self-doubt seemed impossible to overcome. Thankfully, reaching out to Dr. Lopur changed everything. From our very first session, he made me feel heard, understood, and genuinely cared for. His compassionate approach and professional guidance helped me navigate some of the most difficult moments in my life. With time, I regained my confidence, found healthier ways to cope, and started feeling like myself again. The progress I've made would not have been possible without his support. If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, or personal challenges, I highly recommend Dr. Lopur. (415) 859-3976 Thank you, Dr. Lopur, for helping me find my way again.

    Would not return. The dentist spent the whole visit talking about all the new property he's buying,…read morethe wealth he came from and the fact that a sushi restaurant named a roll after him. It's not surprising that his main picture on this site is him on the news. I'm all for celebrating wins but maybe he could have spent more time focusing on me as a patient rather than aura farming. The other staff were much more patient oriented.

    I truly appreciated how the doctor took time to explain everything in simple terms. It made a huge…read moredifference.

    I tried to transfer my care from a different Aspen dental location out of state and continue my…read moreMotto aligner care and dental care in Albuquerque (only one Aspen location in Albuquerque open on 2424 Louisiana blvd). After the first appointment where I explained that I hoped my new dentist would help with my aligner care, I got a sense the dentist (Navbir Aurora) wasn't not enthusiastic about addressing my need, but reluctantly agreed to reschedule me (they didn't have the parts needed). After the second appointment (that took about 3 minutes total) where the dentist (Navbiv Aurora) created spaces between my teeth to ensure my teeth were moving as they should, he said to me in a condescending tone "I am not supposed to help you because you initiated care somewhere else. I am doing it as a courtesy, I am not supposed to do it" and he walked out of the room. He went on to attack me because I happened to ask if all necessary spaces were created between the teeth. It's my mouth, my health - I have the right to ask clarifying questions and receive reassurance, but basic questions triggered his fragile ego and he got defensive. He then really wanted to make sure I knew and felt that my issue and my care wasn't important to him and that he was bothered by it and his demeanor showed it. It was a put down. No follow up plan, no goodbye- just left the room after a snarky arrogant remark. That conversation made me feel shocked and confused, and I told the assistant who was in the room and witnessed the conversion that the exchange didn't make me feel welcome here as a patient. Why did he have to reiterate multiple times that helping me was not what he was supposed to do? This is the only Aspen in town- who is supposed to help me then!? The dentist who is also the practice owner made me feel like a bother, a waste of his time. The assistant brought the dentist back to the room who immediately said "That's not what I said- I didn't say you aren't welcome here" to which I replied that he made me feel extremely unwelcome by his comments and that I would appreciate a different kind of attitude toward my situation. He replied coldly and vengefully "you are done here. Go back to Vegas and receive your care there. I am done with you" That was terrifying and scary. I have never experienced this type of harrowing customer service and arrogant condescending attitude from any medical professional in my life. Especially coming from a practice owner who could try caring about people, their dental problems, his reputation a little more or at least pretend to. The scenario felt like this: "you aren't bringing any money to my business , you are another dentist's problem (even from another Aspen), so I will make sure you know your care isn't important here and we are doing you a tremendous favor" And when you bring up that his behavior makes you feel unwelcome, he will try to flex his muscles, show his temper knowing he is the only Aspen dentist in town and will blatantly kick you out of his office knowing that you are left with no options in town since Motto aligners are specific only to the Aspen chain. I was told that transferring care wouldn't be a problem because Aspen is a chain, but this local Aspen owner feels bothered finishing up someone else's work for free, will be very explicit about it, will rub it in your face to make you feel bad and will kick you out as a customer when you bring up an issue just because he feels like it. This is not normal behavior from a dentist/business owner. I feel bad for his staff-they all seem like really nice well-meaning people and I am sorry that they have to work with him (Navbir Aurora)and be subjected to conceited, emotionally volatile and unprofessional behavior from their boss with a superiority complex. They all seemed so helpless. Shame on you, sir. Shame on you. What a disappointment and disgrace.
