After one year of his procedure, I now have an infection, and a perforation (hole) at the site of the root canal he performed on me. My regular dentist saw my X-Rays of Dr. McKay's root canal procedure and quickly informed me that it was not a good one. So he referred me to an Endodontist that said she would either have to do another root canal, or get the tooth entirely extracted because of possible recurring infections. So, not only am I out of thousands of dollars with Dr. McKay, now I have to redo the entire root canal process and spend more money. Whoever is reading this, take it from me - even if Dr. McKay is a nice guy, you are risking your health if he says that you need a root canal. Trust me, go get a second opinion at least. This guy is like a snake oil salesman. Every patient he saw next to me that day, I heard him say, "You need a root canal"! This was a hard lesson learned for me. But it doesn't have to be for you! DON'T DO IT FOLKS! Go elsewhere.

I can, however, share my consistent experiences with him and his office. I started going to him when I was a college student living on a shoestring budget, desperately saving up all I could to fix the many problems in my mouth (fillings, some root canals, deep cleaning - I got my dad's teeth, which are prone to such issues; thanks Dad!). I had also had a very bad experience with a dentist as a teenager, so I was nervous about new dentists and told him so. Dr. Davari was always straightforward and kind. He let me know what needed to be handled first and composed a plan that we followed for a few years until everything was done, going at the pace I could afford. He was very aware of pain management and never left me to suffer. (I also need more numbing than most people and it wears off sooner on me - again, thanks for that genetic legacy, Dad!) He checked in regularly to see how I was doing, explained procedures beforehand patiently, and did not press for anything that was not necessary at the moment. He made suggestions and explained them without undue pressure. I was impressed at the upgrades to his office over the years and enjoyed the ease of the technology as he incorporated it, but I never got the impression that he was letting the tech take over for solid dental knowledge and practice. I always felt like I received excellent care and definitely got what I paid for. I was often able to get appointments quickly (especially when I had last-minute problems develop, like a very old filling that fell out) and the office personnel were always kind and helpful to me. Cleanings were well done and well handled by hygienists. If I had to be referred elsewhere, such as for my root canals, I had excellent experiences with those I went to. I won't forget Dr. Davari or his office. He is the best dentist I've had in my life thus far. I am grateful to have been with them for so long and when I was so economically vulnerable, and I wish them the best every step of the way.

Been my dentist for years I love him and his office five stars for sure.. must go at least onceread more

I recently got veneers done by Dr. Vartan, and I couldn't be happier with the entire experience. From the initial consultation to the final results, everything went perfectly. Dr. Vartan took the time to explain every step of the process, answered all of my questions, and made sure I was comfortable throughout. The results exceeded my expectations--my smile looks natural, beautiful, and exactly what I was hoping for. What really stood out was how kind, professional, and welcoming the entire staff was. Everyone made me feel valued and cared for from the moment I walked in. If you're considering veneers or any cosmetic dental work, I highly recommend Dr. Vartan and his team. Their attention to detail, expertise, and genuine care for their patients truly set them apart. Thank you for such an amazing experience! read more

I was promised follow-up over the course of five weeks but never received a single call. Instead, I had to call the office four separate times just to find out what my insurance would cover and what it wouldn't. I also was given an upsell recommendation for four crowns on fillings that simply needed to be replaced. Scheduling was also an issue. I received a text confirming one appointment time, only to get a call the day before "confirming" a completely different time. When I pointed out that I had a confirmation text with the original time, I was told, "Oh, well, can you come at this time? No? Okay, I'll call you back." I never received a call back. The final issue involved obtaining medical clearance from my OB. The office was supposed to contact my doctor's office for approval. On the day of my appointment, since I live 40 minutes away, I called to confirm they had received the clearance before making the drive. I was told, "I called this morning, but no reply. Do you want to call them?" At that point, it felt like I was responsible for coordinating communication that should have been handled by the dental office. Overall, the experience felt like one long goose chase. The lack of communication, follow-up, and professionalism was frustrating. Unfortunately, I would recommend looking elsewhere for your dental care.
