Beware of this dentist! Clean & friendly service, however, they do not work to provide patient’s needs. Had me waiting for almost two months on a approval for a treatment that would give me a nicer smile. Unfortunately, my treatment never got approved because it was never submitted. The reason for it, they submitted a much more expensive treatment that I did not concur with. They sure do make profit. Definitely End Game For Me!

Over the last few months since the beginning of this year I thought there would be no dentist that would care or even as much think about the patient and what they truly need, then this place came around and all I can say is unbelievable! People do care! This place has given me my smile back, hope back and so much more and I couldn’t be more happier that this place is here! I only work a few blocks away and they make an unbelievable effort to work with my schedule and they explain throughly how the procedure is gonna go and how much each visit will be with insurance and everything! To the receptionists, to the doctors, to the people working there period, thank you for being there and keep up the amazing work! Take it from me, if you need people there to give u what u need with all that’s going on and with the patience and persistence to get you a better smile this place is definitely the place to go! -SPEEDY

Honest Review!Going to the dentist makes me anxious but Advanced Dentistry of Alhambra really alleviated a lot of my anxiety. For one, the staff are super nice and courteous. They make sure to check in on you and make you as comfortable as possible. Secondly, the Doctors here are amazing! I believe my doctor was Dr. Martinez. He answered all my questions and even made me laugh during my root canal procedure. That truly helped me calm down. The dental assistants and hygienist are super helpful as well. Third, the front staff and Frances were super nice. Frances answered all questions pertaining to my insurance. I truly appreciate the customer service! If you are looking for a place that really cares about you, answers questions, works with you financially, and truly want your teeth to be healthy, then this is the place for you! I will be back!!!

My smile has completely changed in the 8 months that I have been going to Dr. Martinez! I love my veneers and he really focused on making sure other procedures had been completed before performing cosmetic work. Highly recommend!

Review №13

Ive been going to Dr. Dara and her team for four years now, and every single time Ive been treated with care and respect. I used to hate going to the dentist, but every single person here is so wonderful and welcoming. The procedures are relatively painless and they take care to make sure youre comfortable. And when they recommend you floss more, it doesnt feel like youre being scolded - it genuinely feels like theyre giving you (really good/healthy) advice and they want whats best for you.If you dread going to the dentist, dont. They are wonderful here.

Really glad a found a dental office that is welcoming, and very professional. Always puts the clients needs first and their minds at ease. Ive always hated visiting the dentist, but after finding this office Ive lost my fear. Dr. Martinez is truly an asset. I now take my daughter, my mom, and myself to this dental office. 100% recommend them.

Best dentistry that I have ever been to! Open late hours and on Saturdays to accommodate all types of schedules. The front desk staff are polite, professional, and treat you like family. Dr. Dara and her dentistry team are excellent in what they do. They take the time to speak to you during your appointment and really care about your dental health. The facility is clean and has ample parking. Highly recommended!

Review №22

Amazing!! I Highly recommend this office!!!!!!About a week ago I had an incident that required immediate dental work, due to COVID-19 I was unable to get hold of anyone in my regular dental office. I was referred to Advanced Dentistry of Alhambra and without any hesitation they were able to take me in. Francis is AMAZING, she walked me through the whole process, and made me feel as if I was an old patient. Dr. Dara was beyond helpful and thoroughly explained more than imagined. Once you find this GEM, you will no longer want to seek another dental office.

Best Dental Office Ever!From start to finish you will receive amazing customer service. Yessica and Francis are amazing, they man the front and greet you by name when you walk in. The doctors themselves are extremely professional and take the time to give you the best service possible. Dr. Martinez does amazing work, he is super gentle and really takes his time. Constantly checks in while he’s working to make sure you aren’t in any pain instead of you suffering through it all. The hygienists are very good, my teeth feel like a million bucks after they clean my teeth! Lastly, you’ll be well taken care of at this office, they never disappoint me.

I dont usually like dentists and hadnt been in a while when I first went to Dr Daras office a few years ago. The staff is always friendly and made me feel at ease! They have helped me slowly get back on track and take care of the things I was neglecting due to not having good experiences at the dentist in the past. I really kind of enjoy going to the dentist now :) thanks to Francis and Dr Dara and everyone else for all there help! I definitely recommend it!

Review №28

The team here is very nice and honest. A few years ago, I was told I needed to spend a few thousand dollars to have a root canal done. The honest doctors here instead, wanted to preserve my tooth and tried alternative ways to be less invasive. I feel like they care for my oral health and are not trying to make an extra buck off of me. A MAJOR PLUS is when they slowly numbed me so that the process was minimally painful. They are great!!!

Review №29

Ive had a few visits now at Advanced Dentistry of Alhambra, the level of care has been the best Ive had in years! The staff are all lovely, positive people that make for a warm atmosphere in the office. The office is also very modern and well equipped compared to what Ive experienced elsewhere.Dr Martinez has been great, he takes the time to explain the procedures and why he recommends them, which put me at ease understanding things beyond the obvious you have a cavity. He was also very attentive while working on my teeth, it was a fairly painless experience all things considered for the work I needed.I would definitely recommend Advanced Dentistry of Alhambra!

Review №31

For me, I work late hours during the weekdays so I am unable to make it during their normal business hours, but they help schedule me to come in on Saturday mornings which I prefer and that to me means a lot because they work with you to try and fit your schedule.I’ve been coming to this dental office for the past 2 years and I can honestly say that the entire staff are amazing. From the moment you walk into their new office location in Alhambra, you immediately feel welcomed and they make sure to provide you with the best service possible. The doctors do amazing work and they really take the time to explain the procedure with you and to make sure you don’t feel any pain or discomfort. They are always there to answer any of your questions and make you feel at ease. All in all, you will leave the office with a good experience.If you are in the area and are in need of some dental work done or maybe looking for a new dentist, I highly recommend this Dental office to everyone as they really care about their customers and provide amazing customer service.

New client. I just walked in the door a bit early, and at the staffs lunch time. The staff was having a baby shower for one of their own. I was offered all kinds of goodies and felt such a warm welcome. They invited me to join the party! I am very pleased and haven’t even seen the Doctor yet. :)

If you are in the area, I highly recommend that you come here for your dental work like I have for over a year. The staff are very friendly and informative, always making me feel welcome or answering any questions I have. Their professional knowledge is great and and they offer a good variety of services too. I used to be hesitant about dental work because of some poor, even painful, experiences at other offices, but its always been great each time here. Again, I highly recommend them.

Dr Dara and her team are amazing!! I was looking for a new dentist after moving back to LA. I had some some previous periodontal issues and they got me on a cleaning plan that was tailored for that. I also had some cosmetic issues and decided to get my first crowns with them. From the financial planning, prep, to the design of the crowns, Dr. Dara and her team were very accommodating and I felt very much cared for during the whole process. Dr Dara took time to make sure my crowns were customized to match and fit and they did!!

Being afraid of needles and constantly dealing with dry mouth, I was worried about going back to the dentist after a long time. I needed A LOT of work done and not only did they work with me financially with each appointment and procedure, they provided excellent and timely service. Dr. Martinez takes an extremely gentle and educational approach to dentistry. I couldnt be more happy with my experience at advanced dentistry Alhambra! Thank you × 1,000,000 !

Review №43

I dont like dentists, but I do like Dr. Dara and her staff. Recently I had gone in due to major tooth pain. The day before the 4th of July I could not even lie down due to my pain. At 6:00 that evening, I called the office to leave a message, and just thought I was going to go for 2 days with major pain. I was surprised to find Frances in the office, answering my call, and letting me know that Tuesday is their late day, and to by there by 7:00. I was just about in tears due to the pain. I got to the office, they took me right in, and they stayed with me, working on me for over 2 hours. Dr. Dara was so wonderful, I kept apologizing for making them stay late the day before the holiday, but she kept saying, we are here for our patients. I can not thank them enough. Also wanted to mention a thanks to Dr. Martinez and Dr. Dang, also extremely good.

I am very pleased with the treatment I received from Dr. Dara - I had a few cleanings done as well as some fillings. The Dr. is professional and kind as is her staff.

Review №58

I fell victim to the Deep Cleaning scam here also, I go to the dentist religiously and take care of my teeth. I just started going here because I moved far from my old dentist. It shocked me when they did my gum measurements, which was painful because it was pushed so deep to record astronomically high measurements. Never had I was nearly double my last measurements. They said I needed a deep clean, I was so shocked. I went ahead with it, then Francis said I needed to pay 50% of the cleaning which, I was not comfortable with. What kind of office takes money before the procedure when they are supposedly certain the patient would need the procedure. I was only comfortable paying half of it. So I paid half and my insurance and got the deep clean done. It was excruciatingly painful way more painful then I remember getting it done a decade ago. Anyways, my insurance covered it, because Ive had a deep clean a decade ago.Then I went on to read these reviews and it all makes sense now, they push the deep clean to everyone and roll the dice to see if the insurance would pay for it. This is why they collect money up front so you lock into doing the procedure. They rush you into doing the deep clean within the week so they dont have to file the preauthorization with the insurance company, because I called my insurance the day after the office said I needed a deep clean, all the office has to do is file a predetermination claim with the insurance. How does a dental office, not know this? they just want your money. I may or may not have needed a deep clean, but from the way they handle business and how Im reading they treat other people the same way, I will not be going back here. If they suggest the deep clean, get a 2nd opinion, Shady business.

Review №59

I am TERRIFIED of the dentist. What I love about the staff here is that they always make me feel at ease. I have never experienced any discomfort. They listened to me about my phobia and always take the time, as we go through procedures, to ask about how I am feeling, level of anxiety/ discomfort, etc. I never feel rushed...I always feel like I am their most important patient.I met and was treated by Dr. Martinez for the first time. Of course I was a bit apprehensive but in little to no time, I felt like I did with my other doctors there.I also appreciate how Frances (front office) come back to explain the monetary/insurance part and offer alternatives.

I must say Im very pleased with my dentist Dara Gashparova she is very professional and funny, she explain what she is going to do and always asking are you ok. I feel she takes her job very serious she explains to her helper what she is doing and why I feel she is a great teacher also. So if you are looking for a dentist that is compassionate and caring this is the one. She has moved to this new place on 70 S Palm Ave. Alhambra it seems to be top of the line beautiful and clean. Oh dont forget the great staff she has.Thanks,Mrs TaylorPs I can now eat salad and ice cream😁😀

I have been attending the Dental office, of Dr Dara Gashparova for about 5 years. The staff are always polite, and have good customer service skills. They are flexible when I cant make it to an appointment, and will help me reschedule. I have never waited for a long period of time during an appointment.The Dental Hygienist Wylene Jiung is courteous, and has pleasant manners. I always walk out of the Dental office content with the superb job Jiung does. Dr. Martinez has done some dental work on my teeth, and I am please with his work. He listens to any dental concerns I am having by making suggestions. Dr. Martinez always does a satisfactory job in explaining any procedure before he starts.Dr. Martinez, is a professional in his practice, amiable, and has polite bedside manners.
