I cannot say enough positive things about my experience with Dr. Sam Vahedi and his entire office…read more I had a tooth that previously underwent a root canal and crown years ago, and out of nowhere it suddenly broke one day. I immediately saw my general dentist, who recommended that the tooth be extracted and replaced with an implant. As you can imagine, I was extremely nervous and anxious about the idea of oral surgery. I reached out to Dr. Sam Vahedi's office, and from the very first interaction, they were incredibly accommodating and professional. They understood the urgency of my situation and scheduled me promptly, which immediately helped put me at ease. The moment I walked into the office and met Dr. Vahedi, I felt calm and reassured. He has a very confident yet kind demeanor that instantly builds trust. They performed a CT scan, and Dr. Vahedi took the time to thoroughly explain exactly what was going on and what the plan would be. He explained that the first step would be extracting the broken tooth, which had three roots. During the procedure, he carefully numbed the area. There was only minimal discomfort with the numbing, and after that, I truly did not feel any pain at all. I could feel some pressure and hear some crunching, but there was absolutely no pain. Throughout the entire process, I felt completely confident in Dr. Vahedi's technical expertise and knowledge. It was clear that I was in very capable hands, and sure enough, he did a magnificent job. His assistant, Heidi, was also wonderful--very attentive, reassuring, and kind. I was so relaxed during the procedure that they actually thought I had fallen asleep! That alone speaks volumes about how comfortable and stress-free the experience was. I will be returning in several months for the next steps of my implant process, and I am extremely grateful that Dr. Sam Vahedi is my oral surgeon. If anyone ever asks me who they should see for oral surgery, extractions, or implants, I will unconditionally and enthusiastically recommend Dr. Vahedi. An outstanding experience from start to finish.

My daughter had two exposure and bonding procedures, and he did an incredible job. She only needed a couple of pain medications on the first day, which exceeded our expectations.

They even suggested that my daughter bring her favorite plushie for extra comfort, which she absolutely loved! Although she was nervous at first, the team took the time to talk with her, made her feel at ease, and even let her watch a movie to help distract her during the procedure. I truly appreciate the kindness, compassion, and professionalism that Dr. Yafai and his team showed my daughter and me. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Yafai to my family, friends, and anyone looking for exceptional care.

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.

Following the procedure, Dr. Palla and and the clinic team have robust procedures to ensure healing, all of which contribute to the overall excellence of this practice.
