My own dentist, Kevin Kafayi DDS, recommended Dr. Rabinovich to me several years ago. And I had one implant done. The found Dr. Rabinovich's office comfortable and spotless, and the staff was cordial and professional and clearly explained what was to be done. I have now visited their office a second time for a double implant and, as was the case on my first visit, really appreciated the quality of the surgery and their flexibility in accommodating my schedule in preparing for the surgery. I cannot praise Dr. Rabinovich and his staff highly enough! read more

I am writing to formally express my concern regarding the customer service I received from San Francisco Dental Center. I called the office to inquire about my daughter's dental results and her prescribed pain medication following her appointment the day before. I was placed on hold for approximately ten minutes. When I asked to speak with a manager, the interaction did not improve. Unfortunately, the manager's behavior mirrored that of the receptionist--both were aggressive, unprofessional, and extremely discourteous. This experience was very upsetting, especially given that the call concerned my child's care and well-being. I expected professionalism, empathy, and clear communication, none of which were provided during this interaction. Due to this experience, I will not be returning to this office for my own care, nor will I be bringing any of my children there in the future. A dental office should be a place where patients and families feel supported and respected, and that was not the case here. I hope this feedback is taken seriously and used to improve the level of customer service provided to patients and families. read more

Thank you Dr. Alex for taking care of my dental procedures. Staff is very nice and clean office!

I've had several implant procedures, this doctor was fast, efficient and painless. I would highly recommend his practice!

I just had my 2nd difficult extraction and implant by Dr Alex Rabinovitch and I would not trust anyone else to do it. The difficult procedures were painless and quick. Dr Rabinovitch has many university degrees yet he and his staff are so friendly and efficient. The office is clean, cheerful and centrally located. We highly recommend it. Thank you again, Dr Rabinovitch for helping me keep smiling ! Colette S. read more

I got all 4 wisdom teeth removed. Dr Rabinovich was efficient and I was in and out of there. Obviously not the most comfortable procedure to heal from but I'm confident his efficiency will speed up the process. The nurses were also so lovely and took great care of me read more

Had to get dental implant and asked my dantist for the recommendation for the best specialist in the area, I was recommended Alex Rabinovich DDS, got appointment right away, all the procedure took less then 20 minutes, Alex performed the procedure flawlessly and completely painless. Super happy and highly recommended office for dental implants. P.S. while at the office Alex performed papilloma removal, another flawless job! Good job, we need more specialists like Alex! read more

I neglected to post this update in 2019. After just five years the implant failed and needed replacing. They had used some kind of outsized screw and unknown super glue to attach the implant that was almost impossible to remove. My dentist had to literally grind down the tooth around the screw over the course of four separate visits. But even then, it was stuck so hard he needed an extended torque implement (think mechanic!) to loosen it. read more

I was attended to from start to finish. Dr. Rabinovich and all who work here were warm and caring. My questions were answered and procedures explained. Dental surgery isn't fun but if you need it this one was excellent. Highly recommend. read more

I cannot say enough great things about my dental implant experience with Dr. Rabinovich and his staff. I was really nervous as I've never had major dental work done before, and not only was his staff knowledgeable, especially his assisting nurse, he and his assisting nurse also worked quickly and efficient throughout the procedure. Honestly, I didn't even feel that much pain, only took a motrin that night! They also timed the follow-up perfectly, when I've had some time to recover and felt confident about the next steps (dental crown itself). Thanks!! read more

I did a full mouth implant in July, 2018. Dr Robinovich did a good job for my full mouth implants. It proved it after 3.5 years. And I had the crowns at Dr Eydelman. Thank you Dr Robinovich to give me the bright smile. I will recommend Dr Robinovich to any potential implant patients. read more

Sir did a great job finding the right metal prosthesis for my lower jaw props cheers great price read more

Get a second opinion before you get a service from him. Also, I suggest rechecking his work in case he forgets something. Sometimes he might charge you without actually having rendered a service if it is for multiple tooth. It is hard to find a good dentist, and HE sure isn't someone we are returning to. Trusted the review that's why we went here only to been disappointed., 07/17/18 The audacity of the doctor commenting on my rights to write a review. Just be thankful I didn't pursue suing you for malpractice. Go and keep practicing trying to do a good job. I leave bad reviews to warn others. I am not paid to give good reviews by companies. read more

I have never needed extensive dental work before beyond a filling. When my root canal failed, I had to have the tooth extracted and had a dental implant put in. Dr. Rabinovich and his team were great. They explained the whole process and procedure and made me feel comfortable with the work they would perform. The extraction and implant was pretty painless. So much so that I barely needed any pain medication after. This was not what I expected, but definitely welcomed! I'm very happy with the procedure and recommend Dr. Rabinovich and his team. read more

Dr. Alex and your staff, Thank you for being the best of the best. I really appreciate what you have done for me. This is excellent job with my neck and Implants. I feel and look younger! I would recommend you to everyone and would not even begin to hesitate to come back for next steps of improvement. Thank you for being there and for being such a wonderful doctor! read more

My surgery on my upper jaw was only one week ago. This is not a review of the outcome. Rather on the front office staff who are more concerned with identify things they don't do, than concern about patient well being. Be concerned! Very high turn over of office staff. Inconsistent information and general lack of follow through. "It's not our job" attitude prevails, placing burden of education and SDI paperwork on the patient - very difficult with an oral procedure and jaw that is wired shut. Also, makes focus on recovery secondary. Monica specifically is lazy, lacks empathy, and generally rude -- the worst kind of rude -- where she "acts" helpful - "I'll order the the form - it will take 4 weeks to get it..." but is not really being helpful (like simply filling it out on line which would seconds). You know the type! If you are thinking about getting this procedure don, remember, you will not be able to speak as your jaw is wired shut. You will need the office to be a proactive advocate to help navigate the SDI process. This office is NOT the advocate you require. If you are able to take off work without the worry of pay for a few months, then you may be ok. read more

Worse experience ever. The rep told me "your consultation would be free and we're just going to charge the panoramic image from your wisdom teeth". Then Dr Alexandre explained your wisdom surgery is about 4-5 hours job and I got a overcharged invoice from them. Luckily the next day I saw another dentist, the second dr did the whole job in 10 min and they charged me less than what dr alex charged my insurance without doing anything. read more

So I was referred here for wisdom tooth extraction. It was little frustrating that they couldn't give me an estimate over the phone without the evaluation/examination and x-ray. Afterward they quoted me the price which seemed fair. They asked if I wanted the optional Exparel injection that is post-op long duration anesthetic. It was worth the extra $300 because most insurance doesn't cover it. I opted for local anesthetic which was faster that general because I didn't need to be escorted home. It was 10 minutes of sheer hell but it was over quickly. Dr. R's assistant was calm and reassuring the whole way. read more

Update- It's now January of 2021- I got my Zirconium lifetime teeth put in on December 22nd. Now that it's all over, and I've got my Beverly Hills teeth, I'm as delighted with the results as I can be. I feel like I had world-class care from the best teams around. The results speak for themselves. Thank You! Please read my whole review below: read more

Dr. Rabinovich and his staff, whom I wish I could thank personally, were very comforting and professional throughout the entire process of having my wisdom teeth extracted. My initial x-ray and consultation appointment was fast and Dr. Rabinovich explained my x-rays and was quick to explain the procedure and cost breakdown of the extraction of my four wisdom teeth. I was very nervous on the day of, 3/27, but the staff was very professional and did well to calm me down with some friendly conversation. I woke up after my surgery with no complications, and besides the expected grogginess, I was able to be head home with my friend escorting me. Dr. Rabinovich and his staff would be the first place I would recommend to anyone seeking any dental surgeries! read more

The whole team is outstanding, professional, and friendly. Dr Rabinovich accommodated my urgent need to be seen and did an excellent job on my implants. He took the time to explain every step of the process as well as set expectations for follow up care. Couldn't be happier with the results and the service! read more

I had two teeth removed, bone restoration and implant installed. The Doctor Rabinovich and his team were highly processional and took great care of me. The surgery was quick and the healing process went very well too. I'm already having a crown on that implant for several months without any issues. Would highly recommend Dr. Rabinovich! read more

I came to implant center after trying with a few facilities. My decision to go with Dr. Rabinovich and his team was absolutely right! Wery good service. Professional work. Recommend to everybody. read more

Dr. Rabinovich has done an excellent job explaining the procedure I had to go through, as well as the financial options that I had prior to the procedure. Needless to say that the surgery went smoothly and without any complications. The whole process (in chair) took less than 45 minutes and was as painless as it could be. The entire office staff seemed to be very courteous, polite, and attentive. No complications after the surgery; prompt follow ups by the staff and a great referral to a dentist for crowns. read more

Best dental experience ever. Hands down. I was in severe pain and they got me in in less than 24 hours. I had a root canal from Dr. Walley (don't go there) that failed and had to have my number 3 molar removed and replaced with an implant. It was pretty gnarly being awake for this procedure (I fear all dentists and doctors like the plague) but I basically felt better by the time I got to my car 15 minutes after surgery. No real pain just weird pressure and relief. My neck was more sore from the pulling out of the tooth than the implant. Robin was very VERY sweet about me being a total wuss. It was like having a close friend there during the procedure holding my hand. I hate going to the dentist and now maybe not so much. I would recommend taking an Uber instead of paying for parking and wasting time driving downtown. Thanks guys! I will tell all my friends about my experience. read more

I was referred to see Dr. Rabinovich to have a tooth pulled. I did not want to have a bridge as I would have to have 2 additional teeth shaved down and crowned so I opted to have a dental implant. The doctor and the staff were very nice and the clinic looks beautiful. They have all the modern technology in the office. Highly recommended. read more

Long overdue review. I had 4 implants done by Dr. Rabinovich. Last Dec/Jan. I was very happy with the work he did. I had some initial discomfort but he assured me this would ease within a couple of weeks and he was right. I would highly recommend him. The staff are really friendly and courteous. I had the most contact with Adrienne who was just outstanding. read more

Anyone whos afraid of the dental pain SHOULD look here. I just had it done a week ago. And to make this clear, Im the weakest when comes to pain especially related to dental, I was shaking really bad when i finally made myself to go there, even if the staff there was trying to tell me that its not that bad but still like many of you im having a lot of doubts.Especially when they give me the form that i have to sign before surgury which lists out every possible worst outcome that could happen after implant, i was scared to.death tbh, but the staff here is really.nice and patience, they walk me through each possibility one by one and make sure i was finally comforrable doing it. But again im a chicken when comes to these things so i still asked for the laughing gas. But the surgery itself takes less than half an hr, and honestly now i feel like i.didnt even need the laughing gas if I knew its that easy. For me.this was.even better than a filling, cuz i still felt a little uncomfortable during drilling during filling but to my surprise, during the implant i was not feeling a thing other than some pressure, so i was pretty shocked when the doctor packed me and said that hes finished, cuz i thought hes only done the extraction but hasnt started the implant yet....so ha my implant ended up to be a cakewalk. And then i started to worry abt when my anethesia wears off, i bought all the painkiller juat in case, but again i wasted.that money, bc it really doesnt hurt, i did feel a little weird on that side but to be honest i resume eating the next day haha..well so i ended up only taking.only the antibiotics. This entire process was painless,.i wish i could know this earlier, bc i had a LOT of stress before, and now i know that those are so unnecessary. Thats why i wanted to.post a detailed comment here, i really hope my painless experience can reduce your stress and worries and help you make the right decision. And not to mention that the stuff here were extremely nice and understanding, I had endless questions and some of them are to be honest silly questions, but regardless they were always willing to listen and comfort me the best they can, Like they trully care. So yeah if you are still debating whether to do this or not because of your fear of a pain, trust me, i was in your shoe! But then again im telling you, it REALLY wasnt bad! read more

I haven't had a treatment here yet. They have a contact form on their website along in addition to a phone number. I filled out the contact form with both my phone number and email address and asked a very specific question - whether they have any availability on a certain day (two days, actually). Also made a note that email is a preferred means of communication during weekdays. I got a reply and it basically asked me to call. They could have at least answered my question (I called the following day and the answer was no) and then asked me to call to confirm. I don't know what the contact form was for then... read more

I had 5 teeth removed. I woke up with no pain. Second day a little soreness, but no need to take anything other than ibuprofen to manage, and minimal swelling. Pretty amazing. read more

What an incredible experience I had. Like many post before me, I was nervous before my surgery. I had 9 teeth extracted and 6 implants done. A lot of work in my mind for a single visit. Dr. Alex and his staff were incredibly professional and compassionate. I was stressing out when I sat in the chair and they calmed me down. I must say, the stress was for not. I was out during the extractions and semi out during the implants. Did not feel a thing. When the procedure was done, I felt like a new man. I had a full upper arch of teeth. (albeit temporary) I did not have any pain after the procedure. NONE! I did a lot of research before I chose to get my work done here. I went to three different consultations. I made the right choice by getting the work done with Dr. Alex. I highly recommend SF Dental Implant Center for implant surgery. read more

Got my 3 wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Alex Rabinovich. It was quick and painless. The whole team was very friendly and helpful and I can not be more thrilled with my procedure. Thank you tooth fairy aka Dr. Alex read more

When I told co-workers In was going to have Implants done, I heard nothing but horror stories. But right from the start of the procedure I was assured that there would minimal pain and dis comfort. The day of my surgery I was put under and when I woke up the implants were in and my temporary bridge installed. I had minor discomfort for a day and that was it. my mouth feels and looks great. Thank you Dr. Rabinovich and staff. read more

I just completed my implant process with Dr. Rabinovich and his incredible staff. I am a complete chicken when it comes to dental work, the tears start flowing just getting in the chair. For my first appointment, Dr. Rabinovich's office fit me in at the last minute, which I really appreciated. When I explained I needed extra care such as hand holding and distracting me with stories and jokes, the staff did everything in their power to help me get through the experience with very little trauma. Having gone through my preliminary surgery elsewhere, the experience I had with Dr. Rabinovich was very different. In this case, the surgeon was very kind to me and concerned for my well-being while remaining focused on his work. The surgeries were successful and almost a breeze compared to the previous one and my recovery was much quicker. Yay! Not sure why other people were unhappy with the staff, I have never seen a dental office where the assistants and administrative staff were as happy and actually seem to be enjoying their jobs. Throughout the whole process everyone in the office was so nice, gracious and helpful, the entire team really made going to the office a pleasure. What normally is a nightmare for me due my high anxiety level resulted into a VERY positive experience. I can't thank Dr. Rabinovich and his team enough. read more

i am suspect of any business (including the dental business, that does not give a BASIC price quote over the phone.) I said to the receptionist at the Rabinovich Dental Office. "I realize you can't lock in a price over the phone but before i decide to come in for a consultation, i have to know if i can afford you so i don't waste your time or mine. Please tell me a ballpark figure for one implant with cap, a lower molar. Assuming my mouth is healthy and i don't need a bone draft or other surgical procedure what would just that screw into the bone and the cap cost APPROXIMATELY? I will not hold you to a set price until after you look at my mouth". I got the royal run around at the Rabinovich office by the woman who answered the phone. She launched into this long speech about how 'ethical' the office was. Baloney! 'Ethical' to me is being price sensitive to people who need and can't afford costly dental treatment. Dr. Rabinovich, just give a fair price to people who don't have medical insurance and they will tell you, you don't have to tell them, how 'ethical' your office is. DENTAL WORK COMES DOWN TO COST for most of us. In Southern California, i found an implant dentist. ADHP.COM 1800 343-2347 All he does is implants. $1500 including crown FOR LOWER MOLAR IF MOUTH IS HEALTHY. He has 3 offices. I did a thorough background search on him. Excellent. I have family i can stay with in the area. The office was straightforward with their cost. I feel Rabinovich is doing what i call "The San Francisco Price Gouge". We get it all the time in the Bay Area don't we? Jacked up prices. Thank God for Dental colleges cranking out more and more dentists. Perhaps the competition will cause the overly high cost of dental care to come down. Can't prove it but i feel this office got 'friends' to write the reviews. read more

Dr. Rabinovich did an excellent job with my bone graft and implant. My head was run over by a car a few years ago and I had severe injuries to my jaw. I have a couple of plates and at least 8 screws helping to keep my jaw together. I researched the oral surgeon that my general dentist referred me to, but decided to go with Dr. Rabinovich because of his extensive experience with traumatic jaw injuries; needless to say I'm happy I did the extra work and went here. My dentist is impressed and happy with the work, and I will be getting my crown installed sometime soon. read more

I had a great experience in this place 3 weeks ago ! I agreed, but was worry about putting 4 implants at the same time , but it was amazing ! No pain during procedure, not even after. I took antibiotics of course, but none of the pain killer. Recovery was unexpectedly quick. Extremely professional, easy hands, very good bedside manner - thank you dr. Rabinovich ! read more

This was the ABSOLUTE best dental experience I have EVER had! I broke my tooth in half on halloween candy, Dr. Rabinovich was EXCELLENT! The staff were very nice, the overall experience was great! I was so afraid it would hurt, etc, and he reassured me, explained everything, was very professional, and is an actual Medical Doctor! He removed my broken tooth and placed the implant, in under an hour. It was PAINLESS, and I cant wait to have the tooth placed. Its been two weeks since my implant, and all is fine. By the way, did I mention it cost HALF as much as my personal dentist quoted. read more

Had Dr Rabinovich pull and replace three teeth with implants. They were more affordable than other options and seem to have done a great job. The procedure was fast and post-op pain was not bad. read more

From the front office and billing staff to the doctor himself, everyone was so helpful and professional! Dr. Rabinovich took such great care of my son and eased my mind about the procedure by explaining everything in detail. Thank you!! read more
