Loved my experience at NELA Orthodontics for the past couple years. Dr. Lee & all of his team were always so nice and professional. Every visit they were really thorough and detailed with each step. I just completed my spark trays and love my results. They were also patient with me as some of my teeth were not budging. Would highly recommend them to everyone! Thank you for my perfect smile :) read more

Wow. The experience with Dr. Lee and NELA Orthodontics was outstanding. Before my visit, Dr. Lee reviewed my photos/X-rays and sent a detailed, thoughtful plan; already a level of care I've never had on Yelp and was by far THE best follow-up message I've ever received on that platform. Already impressed. When I came in person, equally impressed. The office is pristine with a great vibe, and Faraz and the front desk are incredibly friendly and patient. In person, Dr. Lee greeted me with amazing energy and gave me some very honest options (what is and isn't possible) after already spending time reviewing my photos beforehand, which saved time, money, and stress. I left confident and relieved and I think that is the best feeling anyone can have coming out of an ortho appointment! This is my new orthodontic home and I'm excited for it. Thank you Dr. Lee & NELA Team! Shaunt read more

A big shout out to Nela Orthodontics, Dr Lee and his fabulous team. From start to finish just an exceptional experience. Appointments were quick and easy. Back office staff were always gentle and considerate. Front office staff are exceedingly accommodating and the Dr has the best bedside (or rather, chairside) manner. In addition they are AFFORDABLE. I'M SO GRATEFUL!!! At 50 years old, I finally have the smile I've always dreamed of! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! read more

I've always wanted to fix my teeth, but thought I was too old (42). I decided to move forward with Spark and it was the best decision I made. Wish I would have done it sooner. I speak to people every day for work and most had no idea I was wearing them. I was confident and comfortable with them on. Dr Lee and his staff are fantastic. They are always kind and genuinely seem to care. After visiting his office, I knew I didn't need to continue looking. I would highly recommend! read more

Dr Lee and the entire staff are AMAZING!! Every time you walk in the team is so welcoming and always on time for appointments. My ortho journey began a year ago after YEARS or going back and forth contemplating if I should or shouldn't get the braces. I went to numerous consultations before finding NELA Orthodontics. The previous consultation told me I needed an expander and that my treatment would be 2 1/2 years long, that did not sit right with me since this was the first time any orthodontist had mentioned it. Thankfully I came across Dr Lee. The day of my consultation with him I said YES! LETS DO THIS!! The office manager Karla explained everything in regards to what my insurance will and won't cover. She's the best! The assistants are just as great. Always friendly and providing such support while working on me. As for Dr Lee? What you see is what you get. He tells it like it is and listens to your concerns. He doesn't sugar coat anything but is never ever rude. I only have a few months left in my Ortho journey but I'm sure going to miss everyone once the braces come off. I can't wait to have some jolly ranchers and a candy apple, it's been so long but I know that at the end it will all be worth it. Don't hesitate in scheduling a consultation with NELA Orthodontics, trust me, you will not regret it 10/10, two thumbs and two toes up!! read more

Took my 8 year old daughter here for a consult today at the advice of our dentist. The office staff and Dr. Lee were very nice and welcoming. Dr. Lee explained everything very clearly and shared that my daughter did not yet need braces, but we would continue to monitor. He explained that in orthodontia, they wait to start treatment until the patient's teeth are ready to ensure treatment is efficient. I really appreciate his care and honesty! read more

Dr. Lee and his team are friendly and professional. He carefully listened to my goals and answered all my questions. Dr. Lee's treatment plan showed care and he did not rush the alignment process. Finally, the office always accommodated my work schedule which made care maintenance easy! Thank you!! read more

Highly recommend Dr. Lee and the entire team at NELA Orthodontics! I recently started my ortho journey with Dr. Lee after many years of going back and forth on getting aligners/braces. From the consultation to getting my actual aligners, the whole process was so smooth and easy. Dr. Lee answered all my questions and made me feel comfortable and confident that I'd see results. His staff is also very friendly and easy to work with for scheduling or answering general questions. I'm a couple months in wearing my aligners and I couldn't be more satisfied thus far. Go see the team at NELA for any of your orthodontic needs! read more

What a professional, pleasant experience it was to come for treatment here. I really like Dr Lee, DJ, and Carla. Dr Lee is clearly an expert, and I really appreciated how clear he was communicating with me. I was impressed overall, and felt I was in great hands. read more

Starting with the people at the front desk. They're all super nice, awesome with our kids (always remember them), very courteous and professional. The folks in the back are amazing. We've had a great experience here and highly recommend them. read more

Today I started my braces journey (again) but this time at NELA orthodontics. And I must say that I am very excited this time around. I finally feel comfortable going to dentist appointments and it's truly thanks to Dr. Lee and the whole staff at NELA. I can't wait to see my progress throughout this braces journey! definitely recommending anyone who had terrible experiences in the past with braces and need braces again to come here at NELA :) read more

This place is wonderful. Dr. Lee and the staff have made my clear aligner experience the best it could be. I met with various different offices to get information about aligners and I am so grateful I went with this office. read more

I am so glad that I went in for a consultation with Dr. Peter. He was very attentive to all of my insecurities. He was very thorough with his explanation and I felt at home. Dr. Peter seemed like he was not only very knowledgeable about braces, but also in Invisalign and this newer aligner treatment called Spark. I truly felt that he had my best interest at heart and was able to help me make a decision that fit my professional needs as I needed them to be as invisible as possible due to my job. My Spark journey has been amazing so far and I am already seeing such a big improvement with my smile. During my recent visit, he told me that I may be able to finish my treatment early if I continue to cooperate with my aligner wear! I can't wait to finish soon! Thank you so much for taking a great care of me! read more

I normally don't do reviews, but this place deserves praise. My treatment was for clear aligners which took a year and a half. The staff was incredible from the very beginning. Every time I called, they were responsive and kind. Whenever I came by for an appointment, my appointment time was honored and I never waited too long. Dr. Lee is knowledgeable, kind and easy to talk to. You get goodies when you become and patient with them, AND you get goodies when you finish your treatment too! It was the best decision going to get a consultation with them a year and a half ago. I felt like they went above and beyond. read more

Dr. Peter and his team are AMAZING. Started my braces journey in Aug 2021 after a terrible experience with another orthodontist and him and his team assured me that I will get the best treatment and end result I was looking for. Fast forward two years later and the journey was well worth it because my smile and teeth look spectacular. Staff is super friendly, high knowledgeable and provide and warm, welcoming environment. I would 100% anyone looking into orthodontic work to trust Dr. Peter and his team because they will go above and beyond to ensure you will be treated to the best of their ability. read more

Dr. Lee is the best! My boyfriend was his patient at a previous location. We were both happy with the results, so of course I had to follow him to his new practice. He's thorough and good at what he does. You can tell he's passionate about his work. There's plenty of street parking as well as a dedicated lot if you can score a spot. The staff is also great, which is a sign that the office is managed well. They like to have fun while keeping it professional - check out their Instagram. You also get graded at each appointment on how well you're following your treatment plan. Good grades earn you raffle entries for cool prizes. There are lots of orthodontic practices out there - knowing I'm in the best hands, I'm happy to be spending my money here. It's a 20-minute commute for me compared to a 5-minute one I could be taking to a local clinic. Worth it for Dr. Lee! And a nice plus: he's not bad to look at! read more

I had my Invisalign done with Dr. Lee to fix my cross bite. I was told in the past that the only way to fix it was surgery (like, MAJOR jaw surgery) but he assured me it could be done. He was able to do a mini implant and I'm 90% done! It wasn't easy being consistent with wearing the Invisalign and the bands but I'm so happy with the results. Dr. Lee walked me through every step of the way and he and his staff was so great with my follow-up care. I was hesitant to go to any appointments but they upheld all COVID precautions so I was completely at ease. read more

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Lee. I went to him for adult braces. He was able to answer all my questions throughout the entire process and totally put me at ease. I wanted adult braces because I knew I wouldn't be disciplined to use Invisalign. I grew up with straight teeth and never needed braces but over the last few years, it became noticeable in photos that my teeth were shifting and I became self conscious of my smile. I was a little nervous to consider getting them as an adult. Honestly it was the best decision. He taught me how to care of my braces and once they were removed maintain the health of my retainers. I definitely recommend him. read more

Fantastic service and quality of care. I drive here from Santa Monica and just love the team. When deciding on a orthodontist their family approach and level of detail made this office the perfect choice. read more

Wanted to get my Invisalign done, and Dr. Lee and his staff at NELA were super helpful in explaining the process. And all my appointments since have been fast and easy. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. read more

So I started my orthodontic journey 3 years ago and glad to say they're finally off! From the beginning Dr. Lee and his team were very professional and most of all very friendly. Dr. Lee knows exactly what he's doing and makes sure that your smile is what it needs to be. Thank you so much Dr. Lee for making my dream smile become a reality! read more

When I first began treatment with Dr. Lee, I was extremely hesitant about orthodontics in general. I didn't want to get teeth extracted (I had a few bad encounters in the past) and I wasn't sure that treatment would even fix my teeth. My teeth were crooked, overcrowded and in overall bad shape. Dr. Lee is as patient and understanding as he is knowledgable. There was never a doubt in his mind that I would walk away with a great smile. He was right, and I am so glad that he was there to guide me through the process. Dr. Lee is an excellent Orthodonist. I don't think I would ever want to go with anyone else. I don't think I can thank him enough for fixing my teeth. My Teeth are straight and I have a great smile now. Thanks again Doc, you are an All-star, and a difference maker. read more

I am so happy I chose NELA Orthodontics! I have had the same Hawley retainers for over 10 years, so I wanted to get a second opinion to see if they were still functioning or if I needed to replace them.They offered me a FULL comprehensive exam (free of charge for the first visit) and did all kinds of scans and tests to check my current dental health. They were very knowledgeable and assured me I could continue using my existing retainer. I will definitely go back if I need any other work done! :) read more

I was so unhappy with my smile . I went to NELA and they were so kind and very helpful, explaining the whole process. Everyone that works there is very nice and lovely. Took it off my braces yesterday and I couldn't be happier, recommend 10/10. read more

Dr. Lee and his office staff are some of the kindest people, all super knowledgeable and they make great effort to make sure you are comfortable and happy. Elizabeth is a wonderful person, my bestie at this point. Dr. Lee is determined to get your teeth straight and looking good honey! I had to have a non removable bite plate in my mouth for a little over 2 months in order to correct my overbite and it was definitely a challenge for me but Dr. Lee assured me this is what I needed and I am so happy I did it. My whole smile has changed; it's bigger and more beautiful than I ever imagined. I can't thank you enough. Looking forward to the day I remove my braces. read more

Last January I was searching for a place to get braces because I was very self conscious about my teeth. I saw this place on yelp and decided Id give it a try and it is one of the best decisions I have made. All the staff are very welcoming and have a positive attitude which makes the environment really good. One of the things that I love the most about this place is the interior. It is very clean and modern almost futuristic looking. The braces process was very simple and doctor lee did his best to meet my goals. When I was about to finish i noticed that the midline between my upper and lower teeth was a bit off and doctor lee pointed it out and said its better to wait a couple more months to make sure it lines up so that my teeth look as best as they can which shows me that he cares about the patient. I would recommend this place to anyone that is searching for the best place to get their orthodontic treatment. read more

We've been meaning to write this review for some time now! Took my niece to continue her treatment for braces after she moved back to LA. We were referred by Eagle Rock Smile and could not be happier with our experience here. We consulted with other offices and NELA's pricing is in line with the competition, but after meeting with Carla we just felt comfortable and at ease at this boutique setting. The ppl who work here are like family, you can just feel it walking in which puts nervous patients at ease. Thanks to Dr. Lee, my niece's teeth are already showing major improvements in just two months. They offer no interest payment plans and paperwork was a breeze. Everything is well organized and we love the text reminders for our busy schedules. They're very active on social media too, which is adorable! Again, just a very friendly atmosphere with real results. read more

Wonderful team. Very clean and organized office. Can't wait for my new smile.  Dr. Lee was delightful, very friendly staff, just the Best service! Thanks so much Dr. Lee and your whole crew! read more

I had braces but lost my retainers a couple years ago and things started shifting. I didn't want braces again so went to see Dr. Lee and he gave me options for Invisalign or inbrace. I really liked that he wasn't pushy and let me decide what made sense for me. I ended up going with Invisalign and only need 6 months of treatment. So far so good! read more

Dr Peter is the man to go to for a perfect smile. Friendly staff, super clean, and great service. Very informative along your braces journey. read more

Dr. Lee knows exactly what he's doing. My teeth were in bad shape when I first consulted with him to get braces. I had an outer bite and I did not smile because I was not confident and I did not like how my teeth were. I don't know where to start but I got braces in May 2018 and the entire process was well worth it because of Dr. Lee's expertise. He's very passionate about what he does and he takes the time to explain everything to his patients. He's always smiling and he makes the process so much easier to deal with. I disliked wearing my rubber bands at first but he constantly reminded me of the importance of wearing them. He did not rush to remove my braces until he was pleased that my teeth were perfectly aligned. Covid delayed the process of my braces getting removed but he did promise me that I'll have them off right in time for my wedding day. And he surely delivered. Now I'm wearing my retainers and it's not bad at all because they fit perfectly. Thank you Dr. Lee for being the best orthodontist I can ask for. I will give million stars if I could because he goes above and beyond for his patients. read more

From the first day my kids and I walked into NELA Orthodontics it has been a great experience, everything was explained to us from cost, types of treatment and time of treatment. My daughter just finished her treatment and her teeth are perfect, we couldn't be happier. Dr. Lee has been great with my kids, he explains everything to them at every visit. Dr. Lee is a great doctor but for me as a parent who needs to make all the appointments and understand what is being done, his office staff is the best, everyone is really nice and knowledgeable. We are very happy to be taken care of by Dr. Lee and his staff. I highly recommend NELA Orthodontics. read more

I couldn't be any more grateful that I got to work with an orthodontist who puts his best work forward and really makes sure his patients leave the office even more confident than when they walked in. read more
