New Awareness Dentistry

This dentist is representing the embodiment of misrepresentation, I had call and make it clear that the exam is free and the assistance confirmed. What is free is to sit on her chair for two minute and she ask for $ 200, that is misrepresentation.
I have to take off on a Monday morning under the windy day on a bike go to her office at 11:30 sharp, to get the worse and nastiest attitude from Mrs. Afsoon herself. «I don’t have time to see you now, I can only give you two minutes.» I told her that ‘s you assistant give me an appointment, so finally she find herself obligated to see me, but reluctantly. I show her on my laptop my full mouth digital x-​ray, as I also emailed them before I arrive and every thing was scheduled and agreed. Suddenly she asked for $ 200 exam that i was told its free on the phone, and she was asking in a very rude and hostile tone. I closed my lap top left the office,
Recapitulation is if you are looking for a new dentist cross her of your list, she is one those money grabbing dentist that they only go to dental school to make money and have no compassion for the patient or profession. $$$$ That all is matter to her, hence you cant even trust her to start operate because she will do her best to make you spend more. I should have even go when i saw that girl mega inflammation under her Unilocal review.

I would just like to keep it simple, but Unilocal wants a long wordy review.
Of I had to quickly use one (1) word to make a review, the word «Care» comes to mind.
Some other words are honorable professionalism courtesy and respect.
My father just turned 80 years old, he has been receiving dental care here over 13 years, it’s great to have such a caring accommodating dentist.

— in 2011 fall, I had gum surgery with this dentist. Because of her lack of skill, my gum surgery led to a mouthful of gum infection and I could not eat for 2 weeks.
— I threatened to sue her for malpractice. So she refunded me some of the excessive payment which I paid her for.
— I told her office to stop telemarketing and emailing me. They did not stop. She actually had the gut to send me LinkedIn invite this week! And this is 2015.
–very dishonest and unethical — she showed me a pricing and how much she is going to bill the insurance company. she was begging with me to pay her more saying that insurance company will pay her very little. After my procedure, my insurance company sent me the Explanation of Benefit that showed how much they paid her. The whole time she was lying — they paid her a lot!
— I am Unilocaling her NOW so that she and her office would stop spamming me and marketing me.
You can probably go there to get your teeth clean. She is a pretty female dentist after all. But she has no skill and no ethic.

Doctor has been very good at following up and taking good care of my cleanings. Her prices are on par with other dentists and her scheduling is very accommodating.
I recommend her for cleaning and teeth whitening — which are services I need being that I drink coffee every day and I drink wine for a living… Thanks Doctor — I will see you soon.

Dr. Afsoon is One of a Kind!!! She is an Angel! Dr. Afsoon is so Very Gentle, Caring, Honest
and Genuinely Cares for her patients! My daughter & I have been blessed to be Dr. Afsoon’s patients since she opened her practice & I can honestly say ALWAYS a PERFECT visit!!!
When you have seen Dr. Afsoon You will NEVER want another dentist touching your mouth!!! She is the VERY BEST!!!

Amazing personality, welcoming, understanding, honest, and caring. What more could you ask for. Just simply amazing. She takes her time doing everything that needs to be done but in a quick and manageable time. Very thorough in all her work and it shows. Doesn’t push you to get something done allows you to make your own decisions.

This dentist SUCKS!!! Beware!!!
My daughter went in to get one of her wisdom teeth removed. She expressed to the hard-​handed dentist that she was in pain, the dentist continued without any care for my daughter. The next day (today) my daughter’s lip on the side is a horrendous mess. HORRIBLE HORRIBLE DENTIST with a heavy hand and no concern for her patients care.
RUN from this dentist!!!

Dr Afsoon is the Best dentist in town!
She really loves her job and cares about her patients!

Afsoon is amazing. She really cares about her patients. Shes honest and I trust her with my teeth. I wouldn’t leave even if she tried to get rid of me.
I love how she tells you what you need, but doesn’t push anything on you. Let’s you make your own decision.
You don’t come across gems like her everyday!
I recommend her without any reservations.

Great Dentist. She really cares about you and your teeth. Her work is impeccable and her prices are extremely reasonable for the level of work that she does and she’s honest which can’t be beat. No surprise bills here. I really wish I could go more often, but she’s super understanding and isn’t pushy.
She does her own cleanings which is always a plus. Though her assistant is super sweet, too.
Her mid-​Wilshire office is convenient and gorgeous, it’s on the 9^th floor? Anyway, you get a clear shot of the hills and it’s quite soothing…

Dr. Afsoon is wonderful! So is Vanessa her assistant. Really made me feel comfy, without any pain! That says a lot coming from a person who is terrified of the dentist’s chair, lol. Light on the hands, you do not feel pain or pressure to your teeth. Cannot wait for my whitening treatment! Thank you Dr. A! :) xoxo, Lala

I have been going to see Ms. B, twice a year, for almost six years. Moving to CA from the Midwest and trying to find a trustworthy Dentist was difficult at first.
I had awful experiences in LA with cost and insurance issues, with snobby Dentists, prior to finding her offices. From a poor college grad to a self sustained business women, Afsoon has been able to schedule me late and on weekends, works with me on prices and she makes my teeth look perfect anytime I need something done.
She is a perfectionist and when it comes to my teeth, I love that!
I would not spend a cent on anyone else.
Parking —
1 Hour Meter Parking on Wilshire (Usually not enough time when your getting work done though)
2 Hour FREE Parking — 2 Blocks North of Wilshire (Use Crescent Heights — It’s closer to her office.)
P. s. Get your final cleaning in before LATE December, because she needs a vacation people! ;)

Could not be more pleased with Dr. Barkhordar’s beginning to end service excellence and incredibly reasonable rates.
Her support staff is also extremely friendly and they politely call to remind me – I always forget — and Dr. Barkhordar’s attention to detail is world class.
I could not be more pleased and HIGHLY recommend her dental care and services to all.

I finally got insurance and was excited to be going to the dentist (it’s been 7 years… yikes).
Long story short the first dentist I went to did my check up from a distance with barely any light and gave me an estimate of $ 2,000. Uh I don’t think so… So I decided to get a second opinion and that’s when I found Dr. Afsoon on Unilocal.
I go for my check up, I’m given mirror to hold up so I can see for myself what type of work I need done. She points out to a tooth I get random pain in and let me know It was infected. She was so detailed… I loved it!
I brought my husband in as well and he wanted to do everything on his first appointment lol we had to calm him down. He had a self confidence issue with a tooth that no dentist wanted to extract, 4 dentists to be exact. Dr. Afsoon understood his frustration and extracted the tooth on his first visit. He can’t stop smiling… Thank you so much Dr. Afsoon we’ll see you next week.

Dr. Barhkhordar is not only very knowledgeable but she has amazing energy. She takes the time to explain everything, what I need and why. I really appreciate that. I never feel rushed. I have had the best teeth cleaning of my life with her. She also fixed a filling that I had been having trouble with for years and didn’t realize that the problem would be resolved by shaving the top tooth! AMAZING!

I went this morning for the first time to Dr. Barkhordar to get my teeth clean and she did an amazing job. She is very experienced, very helpful, and she gives you all the time and attention you deserve. The cleaning she performed was absolutely professional and thorough. She is also very friendly and nice to talk to, and I will return. Excellent dentist!

After my longtime dentist retired, I had trouble finding someone I liked.
Afsoon is not only a really great dentist, she’s gentle and fast and is very informative about procedures, as well as accomodating regarding scheduling and payments. I’ve referred friends who feeel the same way and after so many impersonal medical offices — she is a breath of fresh air –pun unintended!

Afsoon Barkhordar is my favorite dentist. I discovered her through a promotional postcard (in an Indian restaurant in Culver City) some years ago, and have turned over my teeth to her expert care ever since. Whether she is doing fillings, doing a periodic dental cleaning, or (as happened a few months ago) pulling a wisdom tooth, whatever the particulars, I always sense acutely her attentive, careful, and caring approach. In my experience, Afsoon is essentially a talented artist, who happens to have devoted her skills to this valuable healing profession. It seems at times like architecture on a minescule scale, or like the art of the Persian miniature, enacted in dental space.
Along with her consummate talent as a dentist, Dr. Barkhordar always has a warm and friendly demeanor — such that a visit to her office proves a cheering and uplifting experience. I realize many people might not think of a dental visit in these rosy terms, but it would surprise me if other dental clients of hers did not share my view.
When I first visited Afsoon a few years ago, my dental life had been completely neglected (I had lived in Asia for a few years, and had not bothered to pay attention to any dental needs). Step by step, she has been bringing my teeth up-​to-​date, winning the quiet battle that is waged in every mouth (after a certain age, I suppose). I’m greatful for all of her good work, and can recommend her as dentist par excellence.
I also appreciate Afsoon’s willingness to make Saturday appointments, which has been a boon in my workaday schedule.

Dr. Afsoon is the coolest, most trusted and efficient Dentist I’ve ever had.
I would recommend her to everyone who wants to feel comfortable & safe with
their dentist.
Also her prices are so reasonable that it didn’t hurt my budget at all.
You won’t go wrong with Dr. Afsoon. Guaranteed!

Phenomenal LA Dentist! Excellent Communicating Doctor, I was very impressed…
Moved to LA from Orange County and was looking for a good Dentist. My sister referred me over to Dr. Afsoon and I took advantage of the special offer she had for new clients, which was a great deal! I checked out her website before and was happy to see she went to UCSF, which is like the best Dental School in California!
I am self employed so my schedule is very busy, when I called to make an appointment I was pleasantly surprised that Dr. Afsoon was open on Saturday of that week I wanted to get my teeth cleaned, so this was a huge plus for me considering my busy weekday schedule. Her office was very centrally located, and the waiting area was very comfortable, and welcoming.
Dr. Afsoon personally welcomed me as a new client, and I felt very comfortable from the beginning, she was really nice and explained exactly what she was doing. I first got my X rays, and then I went in for the cleaning. She really took her time cleaning my teeth, and I never had a Dentist be so thorough with a cleaning in my life! When the cleaning was done, she personally went over my X-​rays with me and really explained everything that was going on with my teeth. I tend to ask a lot of questions because I am curious person, and she was able to answer my questions in detail and she was very knowledgeable. I now know what a cavity on an X-​ray looks like!
I have nice teeth and intend to keep them until I am very old, so finding a Dentist that is knowledgeable, trustworthy and caring is very important to me. Dr. Afsoon is an absolutely amazing Dentist!
I would recommend Dr. Afsoon to all my friends, and I actually already have! My friend has bad front teeth and I told him he needs to go to Dr. Afsoon to get it taken care of, he actually lives very close to her office in Park La Brea.
