I don't want to waste my time or yours with all the details however this is a warning. Even the mail in trays would be a step up from this office.

Her appointment was canceled twice because the doctor is out of the office on appointment day. I understand emergencies but maybe having more than one doctor would be helpful.

I can't say enough about how much Dr. Salmassian and his team have meant to me throughout my smile…read morejourney. My process of aligning my teeth took a lot longer than expected-due to my own financial limitations, plus needing jaw surgery and two teeth implants. There were definitely moments where it felt overwhelming, but I never once felt rushed or pressured into making decisions. Dr. Salmassian was incredibly patient and supportive the entire time. He even helped me find full coverage for my jaw surgery, which made such a huge difference for me and lifted some weight off my shoulders. Every step of the way, he took the time to explain things clearly and made sure I felt comfortable-no question ever felt "silly" to ask and any areas of discomfort/adjustment were taken seriously! His team is just as amazing! Any day I came in, they always made me feel welcome and remembered--from complimenting my outfit to asking about how school and my teaching training were going. It never felt like I was just "another appointment", which is a feeling many are used to at other offices. I can tell they have a passion for what they do and love where they work. Even though my journey took longer than expected, they stayed patient, kind, and encouraging the whole way through. And now, I finally feel confident in my smile again. I didn't even realize how much I used to hide it until I caught myself laughing WITHOUT covering my smile--something I hadn't done in years... I'm so grateful to Dr. Salmassian and his entire team for giving me that confidence back. Truly, thank you for your time, care, and dedication! :)
