"Charged $2,000 for a root canal that was improperly done . The dentist didn't even take a post-procedure X-ray and failed to warn me of the damage they caused. Completely unacceptable care." "This so-called dentist Jeff Berlin ruined my tooth couldn't care less about the damage." -- avoid at all costs. read more

On January 16, 2026 I had a root canal performed by Jeff Berlin, DDS, MS. I was very nervous about the procedure. How ever, I should not have been as he turned out to be one of the most professional physicians I have experienced. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. His office staff is to be commended. He even called me to find out how I was doing. KUDOS read more

I saw Dr Berlin for a root canal redo and he was amazing every step of the way. He was incredibly thorough when explaining everything to me, very caring during the course of treatment, and went above and beyond to make sure I was ok. He even called me after office hours to check on me after the procedure. Brisna at the front desk is great when scheduling and checking in and out - she was able to get me in the next business day! - and Dr. Berlin's assistant Brenda is also lovely and cares about making patients feel comfortable. You hope you'll never need a root canal, but, if you do, Dr. Berlin makes the experience painless and makes you feel safe and cared for every step of the way. All of the other 5 star reviews are spot on! read more

My root canal was a major challenge!! Dr. Jeff Berlin was a miracle worker...he saved the tooth and made the experience as pleasant as possible. I highly recommend his services. read more

My dentist sent me to Dr. Berlin for an emergency root canal and he was able to take me on a moment's notice. The treatment I received was professional, courteous, and 100% painless (I was actually daydreaming while he was working on me)! I'm very impressed and pleased with Dr. Berlin and his whole staff. Thank you! read more

Three root canals and never felt a thing. Dr. Berlin ensures that you are in a pain free environment and personally calls you the evening of your procedure to check in. Zero complications and he's a nice and personable guy as well. Additionally the front office staff are pleasant and his clinical assistants are best in class. While they do not take my dental insurance they sent the bill to both my primary and secondary insurers and I received checks from both in a timely fashion with no work on my end at all. read more

I've never had a root canal before, my general dentist recommended Dr. Berlin. It was out of my insurance network so the upfront cost was Hefty. I ended up not getting it done there and going somewhere else where they completely bled my bank account dry and still did not get the procedure done correctly. (I'm 24 and still learning) Long story short, I came back to Jeff and he did a perfect job on my root canal, very comforting and skilled doctor. I could not thank him enough. Other specialists said I needed surgery or a multiple step root canal but Jeff did my tooth in about 45 minutes with absolutely no pain. I cannot be happier with the treatment I got and should have never went anywhere else. This is your guy!! read more

I Just had my first appointment with Dr. Jeff. He was friendly and very professional. He did excellent job, he did it quickly and without pain. Highly recommend!! read more

Jeff Berlin, DDS, MS - Endodontists Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

Hi, my name is Hope Adams and I am beyond grateful I was referred to Dr. Berlin! Two days prior to finding Dr. Berlin, I went to a root canal specialist who insisted, I had to pull my two front teeth, and there was no way they could be saved. ...I was devastated, and desperately needed a second opinion. After Dr. Berlin examined and observed my situation, he knew exactly how to treat my infection-without pulling my teeth. His main concern was saving my teeth. He is the most sophisticated, experienced conscious caring, Dentist, who believes in saving your teeth instead of pulling them. Beyond grateful to have gotten this referral. I give him all the stars on this planet. Hope Adams read more

Jeff Berlin, DDS, MS - Endodontists Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

Provided my insurance name and card info when booking my appointment (2 weeks ahead), and was only told when checking in for the appointment that they don't take Cigna PPO. read more

A root canal is never fun. Dr. Berlin and his entire team are amazing. I am not the best patient because I have a massive gag reflex related to x-rays. Dr. Berlin numbed me up enough so I could truly have x-rays taken (true to a root canal) during the process. During the entire root canal (an hour or so), he was focused and always asked to make certain I was okay. Brisna, at the front desk, is amazing. That Dr. Berlin would call me this evening to check on me, says everything. My amazing dentist, Dr. Dan Pinar, referred me to this amazing endodontist! Yes, you pay up front. It is what it is. Brisna submitted all to my insurance. Fingers and toes crossed on the insurance front! read more

I am very thankful for the expertise and compassion Dr Berlin has for his patients. I have had 2 root canals by Dr Berlin and he made sure it was a painless experience each time. I have the utmost confidence in his skills and my own dentist even commented about his work. I highly recommend him and his staff, they are all very professional. read more

Not sure how I can give five stars for a root canal, but I am. Prior to Dr. Berlin, I had two root canals. They were both fine, but I was always extremely sore and tender for a week. At least. First, Dr. Berlin was friendly and welcoming. I felt very confident in his diagnosis (also a concern I'd had with others). The work was quick and smooth and he talked me through it the whole way. I was seriously done well before I thought I'd be. The best part was that he explained about taking Advil three times/day for two to three days. I was able to eat normally in the second day with no pain. If/when I need another root canal, I'm coming here. read more

I was referred to Dr. Berlin, by my primary dentist. Never fun having to have a root canal done. Dr. Berlin made my experience very comfortable and easy. He was absolutely great in communicating, he followed up that same evening with a call to check on how I was doing. Who does that anymore, not many! It's been a 4 days, and my tooth is exhibiting no discomfort. His staff was very friendly and patient. Not that anyone looks forward to getting a root canal done, if you do, I would highly recommend Dr. Berlin and his practice. read more

Dr Berlin has taken a number of different opportunities to reach out and took my concerns seriously. Because of that I'm updating my review to 4 stars read more

Oh my GOODNESS.... Everyone was so scared for me...... ROOT CANAL WTF?! Well, chill out everyone... Dr. Berlin was kind, fast, caring, attentive and professional! I didn't feel a thing!!! And I can't take pain. After the numbing of the area wore off, I was back to eating as if nothing ever happened... No meds (but I did have them) PAIN-FREE.... So easy... I can't believe it!!! I'm looking forward to going back for part 2. ;-) read more

I was referred to Dr.Berlin's office by my dentist Dr. Lebovicz, they were able to get me in with him the next day for a root canal procedure. When I arrived the office was clean and I was attended to right away. Dr. Berlin was welcoming as well as his staff. We started on my root canal within minutes of my arrival. He made sure I was as comfortable as possible during the procedure. I tend to need more lidocaine than the dentists anticipate so they usually keep numbing me until half my face is numb and droopy and I can still feel what they are doing. This did not happen with Dr. Berlin. When I let him know I was still feeling pain, he found the exact point where I was feeling the pain and I did not feel any more pain after. The numb sensation stayed in my gums and my lips without leaking into the rest of my face. The procedure was about an hour long and at one point I was nodding in and out of sleep. I have to say this was one of the best dentist experiences I have ever had in my life. This procedure was as easy as having a teeth cleaning and even during that I usually get uncomfortable, irritated, and antsy. His staff gave me 600 mg of ibuprofen after my procedure and aftercare instructions. It was said I may need otc pain medications for up to 3 days. Dr. Berlin called me that night to make sure I was doing okay and I let him know I felt great and I didn't need to take anything at all the rest of the day. My manager was even surprised I showed up to work the next day! read more

This is the same issue that multiple people have written about. The dental work was fine. When I went to the appointment they asked for me to pay an "estimate" (I have never been asked this before) before I was seen by the dentist. I paid over $700. I got my EOB from my insurance company and I should have only paid around $300. I called to ask why and they used the word "estimate" again. The work I had done was very straightforward and the amount should have been clear - I have asked people in other dental offices about this. They said as soon as they received the EOB I would be refunded. I called a week later and they said the EOBs were only opened on Wednesday and Fridays. I'm sure since I have called and emailed I will be refunded but I can't help but wonder what happens to patients who don't look at their EOBs. They spoke to me as if I was the only one to be annoyed by this and then I come here and see they have done it for years. Reporting to my insurance company now. read more

10 stars if I could. Dr. Berlin and his staff are so pleasant and the entire process was effortless and pain free!! Even after the fact! He was incredibly attentive and patient No one could believe I was working OR eating after the root canal! Thank you for being great. I highly recommend. I hope I don't have to come back (if you know what I mean!) read more

Dr. Berlin and his staff are beyond incredible. I was seen immediately with an urgent matter, it was managed right away. As a doctor myself, this professional and efficient care cannot be measured in stars in a review. I would give them a millions stars!! I feel beyond grateful they were able to give me an emergency root canal, I had no pain during the procedure or after. I highly recommend Dr. Berlin, he's professional, efficient and caring - everything you want in your DDS!!! Chelan Nour, MD read more

Unfortunately, I cannot speak to the doctors work as before I even went into the appointment both the front desk and the administrator admin, Lynn both had complete attitudes towards me asking about the insurance code which should of been explained and given in the first place. They were both rude and not helpful all because I needed an insurance code and help finding out that information for my consultation. I am not sure why the front desk assistants are pretending to be the gate keepers to the doctor, but trust me you do not want people like this handling your private information and paperwork and I hope that he knows he is losing patients due to incompetent workers that are supposed to help patients get appointments, not lose them. read more

Just got a ROOT CANAL with Dr. Berlin and Brenda at his side. Awesome work- fast, painless, tv to watch while they work. If you need a root canal or any other services they provide, go to him. I've never had such a positive dental experience. Lyn at the front dest was gracious and so helpful also. Thank you Dr. Berlin!!!!! read more

Dr. Berlin took me in the same day for a root canal. The procedure was painless and quick and I didn't have any pain afterwards ! He did some magic. Also his staff is very nice and very helpful. Thank you all for a great experience read more

This was a wonderful experience, if you can call a root canal wonderful. I had shooting pain, and my dentist referred me to Dr. Berlin. Not only did he see me that day, his manner was comforting, and he got the procedure done within an hour. But more than that, by later that evening, Dr. Berlin gave me a call to make sure everything was okay -- i was totally not expecting that. Wonderful communication, the tooth has been great since then. I hope I never need another root canal! But if I do, I'm going to Dr. Berlin. read more

It is never fun going to the dentist; however, it is needed and if I have to go this is the guy I want working on me. In the past, I have noticed that some dental offices will push you for cleanings and up-charges etc. It was such a pleasant experience meeting Dr. Berlin. I was referred to him when I was told I may need a root canal. He put me through several tests all the while being very patient and explaining everything in detail before letting me know the verdict. It turns out that I did not need a root canal. Well Dr. Berlin, If I do one in the future you can be sure that you will be my doctor. I truly appreciate your honesty. read more

AMAZING!!!! Today was the first time I've ever had a root canal. After the numbing - I just sat there and he did all the work. I should say first, I called his office at the recommendation of my periodontist who thought I might be needing a root canal. Turned out I needed two root canals. I had been running around all last week and the week before, made an appointment and then cancelled it, I knew I had to call back and get in there. My main reason for going was Lynne (sp?). I had to meet her. When I initially called there was a problem, like so many of us, not having the money up front to get the procedure done. She said to come in anyway and just have a consultation and see if you do in fact need the root canal. That would be better than just not coming in and not knowing. The way she put it almost sounded like she was urging me to come in and take care of myself. So, I went in yesterday for the consultation. As stated above, I needed 2 root canals and Dr. Berlin scheduled me for today at 8:00 a.m. He said he would try to get both done or that I would have to come back another day to get the other one done. I was fine with that. So, I sat back and let him do his magick. when I was through I went to the reception area to get my prescriptions and to pay and he came out and said he had done both of them and that I didn't have to come back. OMG!!! It felt like I sat there for just over 1 hour and Dr. Berlin had completed both of them. HE IS AWESOME!!!! I highly recommend going to this endodontist. It may be costly - one root canal cost me $1,700 but, it takes a lot of work to do a root canal. So, it is well worth the money spent and spent on this doctor. The numbing is not that nasty numbing that you start to feel tingly and creepy crawly on your skin. It wears off nicely too. I even felt badly that I wasn't coming to see him again for the second root canal. His manner and care is very comforting. Dr. Berlin and Lynne - if you're out there reading your reviews, THANK YOU, THANK YOU AND FUTHERMORE THANK YOU. I am doing well, it's 3:43 p.m. and I feel amazing. read more

Dr. Berlin is AWESOME!!! My regular dentist referred me to him because he specializes in root canals and has all the latest equipment, including a microscope to perform the procedure. Dr. Berlin is super charming, kind, sensitive (and very cute too). During the root canal he explained everything he was doing and made sure I was in no pain or discomfort. He was done in about 45 minutes. This was the comfortable and the most painless root canal I've ever had or anyone can ever have. His staff are also very kind and sweet and professional. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Berlin. Highly recommended! read more

See all

My experience with Dr. Berlin and his staff was terrific for an anxiety provoking dental procedure for most people. He took the time to explain everything during the actual procedure, and checked in frequently to make sure that I was comfortable. I followed his directions regarding pain management after it and had very little pain. He followed up to see how I was doing including giving me a number to reach him after hours. Highly recommend Dr. Berlin. read more

I needed an emergency root canal, and I was in a lot of pain. Dr. Berlin got me in on the same day I called and did efficient and excellent work. He even called me at home that evening to check on my status. This is where my own dentist went when she needed a root canal, which is a pretty high recommendation. He's a super professional and capable endodontist, with a good bedside manner. His staff both in the front of the office and assisting him during procedures are also outstanding. I hope I don't need his services in the future, but if I do, I will most definitely return to him. read more

Horrible customer service. Arbitrary rules about not accepting my FSA card. No flexibility or willingness to work with clients on financial arrangements. read more

Dr Berlin and staff are fabulous! I was seen the same day for a root canal. Dr Berlin is kind, compassionate and explains everything that I needed to know. I highly recommend Dr Berlin! read more

My experience was absolutely superb. Dr Berlin's chair side manner quelled my jitters, and his calm, professional, skillful handling of my rather problematic root procedure was no problem for his artful excellence. Raves also to Lyn, his office staff and dental assistants. All were first class. No pain. Excellent results. Can't praise Dr Berlin and his people enough! Reed Steiner read more

This man is MAGIC!! as are the Magician's assistants, Lyn and Brisna. Let me start by saying that the Cowardly Lion from The Wizard of Oz is like Rambo compared to me. Ask any Doctor who's had the, "distinct pleasure", of telling me something NEEDS to be done that requires a needle and in this particular case, a drill. It was with great anguish that my poor sweet Dentist told me I needed a root canal on my bottom molar but he had a, "great guy", to do it and he'd explain my mishugas w the needles etc. (insert crying , shaking, hyperventilating, etc). I showed up for my consult and after a series of x-rays with Brisna it was time to meet the guy who's going to torture me like in "Marathon Man". Dr. Berlin came in and introduced himself. His relaxed warm demeanor and great sense of humor made me feel (not so awful) about having to do this and confident in his abilities. He was "warned" by my Dentist that I'm a handful and that my lower jaw has problems getting "numb". Dr. Berlin assured me that he's got "tricks" so not to worry. D-day came a week later and I was very well "medicated" an hour and half prior but didn't feel like it was working so out came the "gas" and it all kicked in. He actually tells you each step before he does it like, "topical gel" and "this tiny shot will hurt for a second but that's it". It took a lot to numb my jaw but all I felt was the first small shot and from there it was smooth sailing! Nothing hurt during, nothing hurt after, no bruising, swelling NOTHING!!! I didn't need to take the prescribed pain pills or even an aspirin just the antibiotics. Oh, he also calls the next day to see how you're feeling. Who does that?? If you're reading this, likely you're in need of an Endodontist and for that I'm truly sorry BUT there's no need to look any further, Dr. Berlin's totally got you!! He's one of the nicest coolest guys you'll ever meet. I hope I'll never need another root canal but if I do, I'll be really happy to see him and the girls, again. Thank you, you brave souls for taking me on!! read more

Several years ago I went to Dr. Andrew Frank's office; however, he had sold the practice to Justin Cohen who referred me to Dr. Berlin for 2 root canals in the front of my lower jaw. Dr. Cohen put implants on top of the root canals. Now, I have had to pull the one implant because it was badly infected around both implants. One implant had to be removed and the second one is too large and pushed a healthy tooth out of line. I am in the process of trying to redo the damage done by Dr. Berlin's root canals and the implants by Dr. Cohen. I had spent about $40,000 then, and now I've had estimates of $22,000 to fix my teeth!

I was recently treated by Dr. Berlin and was very pleased with the entire experience. I had a tooth which had been severely compromised due to a previous root canal, which unfortunately was improperly performed by another endodontist. Dr. Berlin was able to perform an apicoectomy and save my tooth, although it was a complicated case. He and his staff were very patient, helpful, and professional. The procedure and recovery went extremely smoothly. I recommend Dr. Berlin most highly. read more

I was referred to Dr Berlin and was able to be seen the same day I called. The staff was kind and helpful and the office space, clean and welcoming. After receiving x-rays and a consultation it was clear I needed a root canal and antibiotics like yesterday. Dr Berlin was kind enough to fit me in immediately to get me out of the pain I was experiencing. He was patient with my fears and talked me through the whole experience, really putting me at ease. He even called later to follow up and make sure I was feeling okay after the procedure. I can't thank him and his team enough for acting with urgency and making it clear that my health mattered to them. read more

Dr. Berlin is a life saver! I was in a great deal of pain and needed a root canal. Dr. Berlin fit me in, performed the root canal with a great deal of care and precision. He was fantastic! I really appreciate how kind and professional he was, especially since this was my first root canal. He immediately put me at ease as soon as he introduced himself to me. I will definitely use him again if I ever need another root canal. I highly recommend Dr. Berlin. read more

Many thanks to Dr. Berlin and his entire staff: what a professional, efficient and friendly office this is. Dr. Berlin does magic and his assistant is so quick and gentle - they almost speak a language of their own - very calmly. I am very grateful he was able to save my tooth and he made it a very positive experience. I hope I don't ever need another root canal, but if I do, I know where to go. Thank you. read more

Dr. Berlin is amazing! I was referred to him for a root canal (My first ever). He is super nice, punctual, friendly, and personable. The same goes for his entire staff. I get the sense that they genuinely care about the patients who come through here. I felt very comfortable there, and he made the process as seamless and painless as possible. I feel bad saying I hope I never see him again (Would prefer not to have any more tooth issues, haha), but I would 100% go back to Dr. Berlin if I ever need endodontic treatment again. Highly recommend! read more

Dr. Berlin knows his way around a root canal! I've never had one before, but the whole experience was painless and relatively quick. I hope I don't need another one soon, but I know where I'm going when the time comes. Thank you!! read more
