I was skeptical about a 'new kid on the block' when Dr. ward sold his practice to Dr farokhian... but, IMO HE IS THE BEST OF THE BEST!! ( the picture above is some unknown woman) the doc is a male!!) Dr. farokhian is very gentle, communicative, knowledgeable and just a 'simple' guy who knows his stuff. as far as pricing: the doctor charges normal charges and bills insurance. for those of you who complain- maybe you need a better insurance company. I wouldn't go anywhere else. glad Dr. farokhian has this place now. the front desk (everyone) is amazing, attentive, helpful and communicative. and, Tina!! the bestest EVER!! enjoy our cleaning sessions!!! do not hesitate to choose this dentist's office. you will not be disappointed...... read more

A successful dental practice is made up of more than a skilled dentist. It is also the front desk staff, hygienists, and dental techs. Everyone at this practice is the best-friendly, caring, and professional. I always look forward to my visits, knowing that I'm going to the best practice in San Diego. read more

The front desk staff are always welcoming and accommodating. My favorite dental hygienist works with Dr Farokian so I get to frequent the office once every 6 months. I had a food trap that was a nuisance and they fixed it right up. I've also had some emergent dental issues and they always squeeze me in ASAP. read more

Dr Farokhian is an expert in his craft, technically adept and, most of all--he and his staff are deeply caring perfectionist. I have been a patient since his beginning his San Diego practice. Because of my belief in him, over this time I went from a partial plate to the most realistic implants ever. I have a crown, so I believe I've had every imaginable dental experience and feel blessed to have been in his care. I feel his staff is like family-and what an amazing family!-- From Lisa who is as diligent as he, to Genevie who is on top of everything and greets you with that dazzling smile, Tina, Lupita and Ayman. Take it from a lifelong dental scary cat--YOU WILL NEVER DO BETTER read more

I've been to my share of orthodontists growing up with the 'old style' braces and various dentists over the years for cleaning and wisdom teeth removal. So for years I just resigned myself to the fact it's just always gonna have some level of pain and anxiety depending on what is being done, during and after the procedure. Then I met Dr Farokhian. By far the most gentle, talented dentist I've ever been to. After a few visits it became apparent just how different he is from the rest. Never even felt the shot of Novocain. They took short breaks so I could rest my jaw. A small pillow was provided for my neck support. I even got sunglasses to wear to help with the bright light. More Novocain was given when I started to feel just a little bit. My anxiety was way lower than with other dentists which is a huge relief for me. My most recent procedure started out as a cavity filling and became my first crown. I had my temporary crown for a few weeks while my permanent crown was being made. Once the permanent crown was in I was able to chew on that side again with no problems. Other than being a little sore I had no additional pain or swelling. A small miracle in my book! Aloha to Dr Farokhian and your wonderful team! read more

I've been to several dentists I even am married to a ex hy·gien·ist. And all I can say is that if you want some top notch staff and top notch dentistry go see Dr. Farokhian. My wife had two crowns done by him and she was very pleased. I've been having some gum recission issues. Been seeing their talented and gifted hygienist Stephanie and she really cleared it up pronto!!! Stephanie is probably one of the the best hygienists in San Diego after my wife of course (she is retired though). Oh and their billing person Debbie explains all the charges and lets you know exactly what things will cost with or without insurance. Thanks Deb for working out the costs for me today. Dr. Farokhian might not be the cheapest but in my book cheap dentistry in the long run is not cheap. In fact he found a crown that was causing me problems and he told me why, margins weren't good! I've been dealing with issues for the last four years and my previous dentist couldn't tell me why. Again cheap dentistry is no bargain in the long haul if you ask me. Any ways I've found my forever dentist and forever Hygienist and I'm glad I did. Oh as a double bonus they take most insurances!!!! Do yourself a favor and book a cleaning with Stephanie you'll be glad that you did! And of course Dr. Farokhian also! Cheers! read more

I have a crown that I have literally hated for years after my implant work was done. I thought that I would have a chiclet tooth forever and it seriously bothered me to smile. Super team at Dr. Farokhian's office put the sizzle back in my smile. My new crown is a Picasso. I am so happy with all the work I've had done. Dr. Farokhian has a gentle touch and a wonderful bedside manner. I highly recommend this office. read more

I found Dr. Farokhian from Opencare and was very impressed by his staff and practice. I came in for an annual cleaning & x-rays and was very pleased. Angela took care of my cleaning and she was such a pleasure! We had great conversation and shared a few laughs. She was so warm and welcoming, it made the entire experience so much better! Thanks again read more

I have been to Dr Farokhian multiple times now for general cleanings, fillings, and teeth whitening. Each time I come here the staff, including Dr Farokhian, are exceptional. From making an appointment over the phone to the moment I check in for an appointment, the staff make the whole process effortless. I really appreciate how this office is open on Saturdays as it is usually so difficult for me to find any kind of medical office open late enough on weekdays for any after-work appointment.. So this place has easily solved that problem for me. The dental assistants are very knowledgable and always throughly answer questions I have. My cleanings have been so painless. Dr Farokhian just recently corrected a couple of old fillings I have and he honestly made my teeth look the best they have ever looked. He was even kind enough to touch up on tiny details that he noticed which really made me feel a lot better about my smile. The staff here are truly great at what they do and I will be happy to recommend friends and family here. read more

Dr Farokhian's office is the best! Highly professional and the front desk staff is warm and accommodating. Highly recommend!

Never take for granted the value of an outstanding dentist with excellent chairside manner. This is a big deal for me as I have terrible dental phobia. It's so bad I have to take a sedative beforehand. Thank you Dr. Farokhian! I have written reviews for Dr. Farokhian before but every time I have work done I feel compelled to write another, that's how grateful I am. read more

Dr.Fthis is. Not a dentist much less a cosmetic surgery entist. Had him replace 2 partials, with instructions of what I wanted to see. I was told everything I wanted, which Dr. Ward my previous dentist accomplished 10+years ago. I am now sitting with dentures that continually fall out ofplace. They a made by a 10 year old, I believe Dr Farokhian made these himself. I am 72 yeatrs old and I believe I received ELDER ABUSE from this office,specifically Dr. Farhokian. To charge he over $7000 plus whatever my insurance company paid him for plastic fake teeth is abusive. read more

Well here is the follow up...... I went yesterday to have 2 crown preps. The work was/is impeccable. And the marriage of heart and skill were perfectly blended. It was obvious that the dentist and his RDA worked well together. Excellent team. I could not ask for a better dental experience. read more

Like I'd imagine most people are, I have never been particularly excited to go to the dentist. However, I do look forward to going here. All of the administrative staff, hygienists, and Dr. Farokhian himself are very friendly, personable and go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. I never feel pressured to undergo any procedure they may mention. I recommend this dentist to anyone in the Hillcrest and surrounding neighborhoods! read more

5 star review to Dr Farokhian and his hygienist Tina. But the people Dr. Farokhian has at his front desk are atrocious, Genevieve in particular is a nightmare. She is rude, obnoxious, a horrible book keeper, and flat out bad with people. Patients beware if you can stomach this women's attitude and make it in the back Dr. Farokhian and RDH Tina are amazing. read more

See all

Yesterday, I received one of two needed crowns. Dr. Farokhian and his assistant, Chloe, did a remarkable job in a reasonable amount of time. Aside from the whining in my brain from the drill, the procedure was painless. It has been just over 24 hours since the procedure and I can barely tell that anything was done. Believe it or not, I am looking forward to my next visit in two weeks to have the permanent crown installed and the second one fitted. I've been going to this practice for almost twenty years. read more

This is an awesome office! Great staff, careful work and understanding especially Reggie! I met him from a mutual friend and was able to get in the office the next day for a consultation and they were able to x ray me and refer me to a place to get my wisdom teeth extracted! Definitely will come back here! read more

First time here & staff was amazing. My fiancée went in to get a procedure don't & since it was a abnormal procedure we were not able to get it handle at this office. They not only referred us to one oral surgeon down the street, they referred us to 3 options. Called to make the appointment for us on the spot to get us in as soon as possible with someone else. We encountered 3 employees at this office & they all were pleasant. Staff helped one another & had beautiful smiles. They made us feel comfortable cause I mean let's face it we all know the dental office can be a bit stressful & intimidating. Definitely going to be coming back for myself & my son. Thank you Reggie for referring us to your office! I don't think I've ever enjoyed going to a dental office before you guys. read more

Best dentist in San Diego! Dr. Farokhian has many years of experience and always concerned about patient comfort. Staff is always amazing. Especially Tina! Been a patient for 12 years now and glad to have them around. read more

This is a wonderful office! The dentist, the hygienists, the front desk staff - all of them are very personable and very good at what they do. I had a small chipped edge on a front tooth, and the doctor did such a good job with the repair that you can't see where it is at all. I also have more than one crown, and there is definitely a difference in the quality of the work (older/inferior ones were done elsewhere.) Even the numbing shots didn't seem to pinch and hurt like with other dentists. If you're looking for a new dentist or dental hygienist, check them out and you won't be disappointed! read more

This is the only place I go. Dr.Farokian has the best office ever. I had a toothache and they got me in right away. This place is amazing. I was very pleased as each employee welcomed me by name. To be honest, I am a regular there. They really know how to treat their patients. Dr. Farokian is very thorough and has amazing chair side manner Anyone who is in need for a dentist, this is the place to go. read more

This used to be dr. Wards practice. Beautiful big office. Got a checkup and he only took 30 seconds to look. Very sloppy. You get no personal attention. He said some teeth needed "watching over". I went to another dentist who said I needed fillings. Clearly Farokhian is guilty of a practice used by many dentists. Forgo fillings and wait until the tooth needs a crown so they can charge more money. Dr. Ward was guilty of this too, tried to talk me into a crown but i had him put in a filling instead. read more

I have continued coming to Dr. Farokhian's Dental Offices since before he took over. It was a smooth transition. Dr. Farokian and all staff cares about each and every person who walks through the door. They take time and care to explain any concerns you may have. The ladies at the front desk take the time to see what your insurance covers and copays may be for your next visit. What I love is when you walk through the door, you are acknowledged right away. I would recommend Dr. Faokhian to anyone. I moved from San Diego in June 2018, but I will continue to come to Dr. Farokhian's Dental Office. read more

Dr. Farokhian took over after my Dentist retired. I was a little bit nervous at first as I really liked my old Dentist and my family and I had been coming to this office for years. I wasn't sure how I would like my new Dentist, but to my relief, the transition has been very smooth and easy. The office staff is very friendly and professional and Dr. Farokhian is an amazing Dentist. I have only great things to say about Dr. Farokhian's office and highly recommend him for any kind of dental work! read more

Dr. Farokhian and his staff are incredible! I was unhappy with my previous dentist, so I'm so glad I was referred to this office. The hygienists and administrators (especially Reggie) are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Farokhian gave me a very quick and painless cavity filling. No problems! read more

I've been coming here for years and I love my experience every single time. When Dr Farokhian took over I wasn't sure how my experience was going to be, but to be honest he's the best dentist I have ever had! He's kind and yet confident in his craft. I feel comfortable every time I'm in his care. I hope he never retires lol! If you're looking for a good dentist, come here. You will be soo happy you made him your dentist. Btw, always book your cleanings in advance. They get busy here and spots fill quickly. read more

I have been a very happy patient of Dr. Farokian for many years. Dr. Farokian and his team are excellent dental care givers. The dental techs are awesome and do a great job in cleaning my teeth, they always give me tons of praise on my dental habits. I have my teeth cleaned every six months and leave with a bag of dental goodies based on my needs, the dental picks are awesome and the gel for dry mouth has really helped. Recently I had a major dental emergency happen, a cracked tooth that happened right in the middle of me being evaluated for a major surgery! I phoned Dr. Farokian's office and they immediately made room for my emergency, evaluated the situation and referred me another Dr. who could do the root canal same afternoon. I was so relieved my anxiety was so high because this could have impacted my upcoming surgery. Dr. Farokian's office manager made sure I could return to the office and have a permanent filling in the tooth, all this happened within two days. Dr. Farokian and his staff are exceptional and no bad experiences ever. Another positive note is my company wanted to change dental coverage mid-year, I called Debi the office manager and she went out of her way to make sure the new insurance coverage was within the plan they could accept, and it was! I have always felt like this was the right place when I walked in the doors many years ago, I came in as a referral from a friend. Dr. Farokian and his staff are great and you will not be disappointed. Highly recommended by me. read more

I have been going to this office since it was run by a different dentist. I have to say that Dr. Farokhian is the best dentist I have ever seen in my 32 years in San Diego. He does excellent restorative dental work. I had a bridge put in last year and have had no issues with it. His staff is also very professional and friendly. It's always a pleasure to be treated in this office. read more

Quite impressed with the thorough cleaning from my hygienist, ease to make an appointment, cleanliness of office, and friendliness of the supporting staff. I'd highly recommend! read more

I had been with Dr. Ward for several years and had noticed that he did not seem as attentive to my teeth as he used to be...Then he sold the practice to Dr. Farokian and I can honestly say it is refreshing to again have someone who attends to his patients as he should. He is very attentive and very personable..Everytime I go the staff are very pleasant and easy to work with both in person and on the phone. I have recommended 2 persons to him and I will continue to do so if anyone is looking for a great dentist. read more

Dr. Farokhian and all the staff including front desk have been fantastic. I I have had fillings, cleanings and even had a few crowns put in with ease. The front desk staff are always welcoming and helpful when understanding insurance and payments. Very clean and friendly environment to have dental work done. read more

Dr. Farokhian, is our family dentist and has done an amazing job keeping our teeth healthy and our smiles happy.

I've been going to Dr. Farokhian and he is an excellent dentist, as well as all the hygienists, receptionists and billing people. Everyone is so nice and kind and wonderful. There is no pain at all, whatever you get done! I am a big baby when it comes to needles and you can't even tell you're getting one when getting Novacaine!!!! I go every other month and it is a pleasure! read more

I love Dr Farokhian and his entire staff! They are super friendly and professional. I've been going to that office forever. I enjoy going there and feel very comfortable read more
