I can't say enough good things about Dr. Alexandre Aalam and his team. I recently experienced a…read moredental emergency, and Dr. Aalam went completely out of his way to help me. From the moment I contacted the office, he was incredibly responsive, professional, and genuinely caring. What stood out most was the personal attention he provided. In a stressful situation, he made me feel like a priority and took the time to explain everything clearly while ensuring I received the care I needed as quickly as possible. His expertise and calm, reassuring manner immediately put me at ease. It's rare these days to find a specialist who combines such exceptional clinical skill with such a high level of personal service. I am extremely grateful for the help he provided and would recommend Dr. Aalam without hesitation to anyone in need of periodontal or implant care. Thank you, Dr. Aalam, for your professionalism, responsiveness, and kindness. It made all the difference.

Dr. Aalam has responded saying that "We take feedback from our patients' experience seriously..."…read more And concludes that he would have been happy to discuss the matter at the time. That completely misrepresents the facts. He could have easily called me the next day and cleared the air. I am not interested in publicly hurting a man's career. But this has been on my mind, that if he hurts someone, I will feel guilty that I did not share this information. NOTE THAT HE DOES NOT ACTUALLY DENY HIS YELLING AND SCREAMING. Instead, he says "Yelling or inappropriate communication of any kind does not align with the environment we strive to provide for our patients and team members." Of course, it does not align with an environment that anyone would "strive to provide." No professional office would openly "strive to provide "an environment where a customer/patient is treated like that. It happened. There was at least one staff member who witnessed it. Plus the screaming was so loud, people in the lobby could have easily heard it. The man completely lost control. I raised the concerns in person at the time. His response is that the concerns should have been raised at the time. They were raised at the time. I quietly raised the issue that I have already signed a contract and put down a deposit. He went into a screaming rage. Really screaming. This is hardly someone who is happy to discuss any issues. There were witnesses, at least one other staff member in the room. Then he left the room and came back minutes later, screaming again. Even with a break, he could not get under control. He came back and showed me a ridiculous interpretation that the contract said all services must be completed in 30 days. (Of course, it really said that I had 30 days to accept the contract. ) I pointed out that the services could never be completed in 30 days. He responded "But you never made a deposit". His own records show that I had made a deposit immediately. This is not a guy who is happy to discuss any issues. It is a man out of control. There was another issue. A faulty CT scan, which he told me was a reason for a delay. Delays is his big thing. So I went to UCLA Health to get another CT scan. His CT scan was wrong. I was charged approximately $250 for an incorrect CT scan. But mistakes like that are possible and understandable. It's the losing of his temper that is why I am writing this review. There were other people in the office that day. They all saw it. A man who can lose control like that must have done it other times. My concern is that anesthesia is part of his treatment. That is a serious health risk. A man who can lose his tempter...if that happens during anesthesia, you're in serious trouble. Again, I don't want to mess with a man's profession. But I would feel guilty if he hurt someone, and I had not shared this information. He should have calmed down and contacted me and this could have been cleared up.

Words can't express how grateful I am to Dr. Shahi and her incredible team. Two years ago, I walked…read moreinto her office after losing a tooth (thanks to an unfortunate bagel!) and dealing with the aftermath of previous dental work that had left me not only missing a tooth, but also much of the surrounding gum tissue and wall. I felt overwhelmed and wasn't sure if my smile could ever be restored. From the very first appointment, Dr. Shahi and her team treated me like family. Every step of the process was handled with so much kindness, patience, and attention to detail that I always knew I was in the best hands. The entire journey took nearly two years and included several surgeries, but somehow it never felt that long. I actually looked forward to every appointment because everyone in the office made me feel so welcome--they've truly become friends. Dr. Shahi performed each surgery with exceptional skill and compassion, making every procedure as comfortable and painless as possible. She always took the time to check in on me, answer my questions, and make sure I was doing well. The care I received went far beyond the dental work itself. I'm honestly a little sad that this journey has come to an end, but I'm incredibly thankful for everything Dr. Shahi and her team have done for me. They didn't just restore my smile--they gave me my confidence back. I couldn't recommend them more highly.

Dear people who need to have a tooth removed: fear not. I had my tooth removed today, this very…read moreday, barely an hour ago actually, by the skilled hands of Dr. Kao and his team. It was as easy as getting a cavity filled but it took half the time. I was terrified yesterday, I felt doomed, and I must say I'm a bit ashamed of that now. We either overthink the procedure or don't know anything about how it works. First, it's not like you're imagining, there is no terrifying pulling or yanking. The tooth is merely trimmed apart until it's gone while your mouth is entirely numb. I felt nothing throughout the whole procedure which lasted only 15 mins tops in my case. The only thing I could feel was the drilling sensation as if I was getting a cavity filled. That was it. I left the office feeling fine, maybe even a little dumbfounded, because yesterday in my imagination I was expecting to leave crawling and whimpering. I'll tell you right now if I ever have to get another tooth removed, or anything serious, I wouldn't even consider another dentist other than Dr. Kao. It's unthinkable. He is highly skilled, in my case he was exceptional, a surgeon like a fine artisan. So, if you have to get a tooth removed, and I can almost picture you now, scrolling through yelp reviews scared and desperate, don't worry, I promise you, look no further and book your appointment today, because there's nothing to fear at all.
