Valentina Yasinsky, DDS

Super nice. Great care. The staff is on top. Flexible on insurance options. Work has been top notch.

Dr. Yasinsky is very gentle and attentive. The assistants are friendly! They all create very warm ambience and you feel absolutely comfortable yourself! I am glad that I found this clinic and highly recommend Dr. Yasinsky!

Really welcoming and thorough. Got a root canal and Dr. Yasinsky and her assistants made me feel very comfortable. What I appreciate about this office is that they send reminder texts for appointments and also allow options for payment plans if there is a costly procedure that is not entirely covered by my health insurance.

Dr. Yasinsky was recommended to me — and I can’t believe how right my friend was!
Her staff is so helpful, and easy to work with. Dr. Yasinsky is sweet, efficient, and makes you feel incredibly comfortable.
Looking for an attentive and genuinely nice dentist? Look no further!

I have an autoimmune disorder that makes my mouth extremely dry and my gums sensitive. Several dentists refused to see me. Dr Yasinsky took me on and the experience has been wonderful. She is thorough and gentle. Another dentist insisted I needed gum surgery. Dr Yasinsky gave an a special mouthwash that cleared up my gums without surgery. The staff is friendly and extremely competent. Best dentist ever!

To change a dentist is always a big problem. After moving to US I had to do it. I thought I would never find anybody who could be as good as my dentist who took care of my teeth since my childhood. But now I can say, that Valentina is even better! I had different procedures at Geary Dentistry: several tooth filling, two crowns, even pulling a tooth, and everything was done perfectly. Yesterday I came back home with my teeth being whitened by Valentina. I never looked at mirror so often as I do last 24 hours, because I can’t believe my eyes! My teeth look great! I’m a model, so beautiful smile is very important for me, and Valentina helps me to be beautiful.
P. S. One more important thing: the office staff is very friendly and it’s always pleasure to talk to them!

Best Place to get your teeth taken care of.

Beware of possible fraud
I saw Dr Yasinsky on 11/​21, as a new patient. I brought my dental insurance card, but the office manager/​billing person said she was unable to verify my coverage over the phone with the insurance provider. She asked that I pay $ 150 for the visit and they would reimburse me once they had confirmed coverage. I have never been asked to do this at a dentist before, but did not have much choice as I had taken time off work for this appointment and wanted my cleaning. It is now ³⁄₂₃ = four months later — and they have not reimbursed my $ 150.
When I spoke to them last month they said my insurance hasn’t paid the claim. I called my insurance and they said they’ve never received the claim from the dentist. I sent them my insurance information again over their email system, but they have not returned my last few phone calls or emails. It should not be the patient’s responsibility to chase a claim — that is what the dentist’s billing manager should do — and in a timely manner. When I’ve spoken with my insurance provider (twice) they have confirmed that the dentist hasn’t submitted a claim. Four months is a long time to wait for reimbursement. And their lack of responsiveness is very frustrating; now I am wondering if there is some sort of fraud or scam going on.

Did an okay job but felt a little bit rushed. Told me that I needed a deep cleaning without really explaining why and then took a bunch of x-​rays. Would’ve preferred somebody to explain a little bit further.

I always dreaded going to the dentist, but Dr. Yasinsky and her staff make it a very pleasant experience. She is very gentle, thorough, and honest, which I truly appreciate.
On my first visit, Dr. Yasinsky and I discussed replacing my old veneer on my front tooth because it didn’t match the rest of my smile. I came back a few weeks later to get it done, and I’m so happy I did. I actually show my teeth when I smile now! She matched the veneer to the rest of my teeth perfectly — you would never know it isn’t my real tooth.
Even though I’m moving to Oakland in a few days, I’m keeping Dr. Yasinsky as my dentist. Her service is well worth the drive, and I don’t trust my teeth with anyone else!

I went for a standard cleaning procedure and came out with a super clean, smooth feeling on my teeth. Dr. Yasinsky is very thorough and makes you feel very comfortable when you are in that chair :) The office looked cozy and clean. Staff were very friendly. I will definitely be back and plan to bring my boyfriend too :)

After finishing my dental work with Dr Yasinsky, everybody is commenting about my big Hollywood smile.

Dr. Valentina Yasinsky and her staff are top notch. Dr. Yasinsky is very detail oriented and yet she works quickly. However, I never feel like I’m being hurried out of her office. The front office staff are efficient, friendly and accommodating. I’m a particularly difficult patient since I’m very scared of going to any dentist, I’ve been this way since I was a child. Every effort is made to make me comfortable and all the procedures are clearly explained to me before, during and after. I’ve recommended Dr. Yasinsky to friends and family, my wife, son and mom are also her patients.

I’ve been a patient at Dr. Yasinsky office for years and very happy with a quality service she is providing. My previous dentist Dr. Berdichevsky was always in a hurry and I felt like all what they care is to help as many customers as they can to make more money.
I’d recommend Dr. Yasinsky to everybody who is looking for a excellent service!

Whole our family goes to Valentina for any kind of dental work, from semi-​annual check ups and cleaning to implants, crowns and bridges. She is very attentive to patients needs, careful and caring specialist.
Her staff is very accomodating when it comes to scheduling the appointment on a weekend. They send you reminders or call you about an upcoming appointment.
She always has an assistant during the dental procedure, which is incredibly valuable and comforting for the patient.
We highly recommend Valentina’s dental clinic to patients of any age!

I love this dental office! The facility is extremely clean and very modern — I love that I can watch TV while getting work done. The staff is super friendly and kind. Dr Yasinski is very knowledgable about all the latest cutting edge dental procedures. Dr Yesinski will take the time and listen to her patients and discuss all best options in a clear and concise manner.
Me and my partner Lance were looking for a dental office that was conveniently open on the weekends. Geary Dental is open on Saturdays and the staff will accommodate your schedule which is a very good thing.
The location is central and easy to get to. They accept Guardian Dental PPO insurance, which makes a major difference in the final cost of services. You really don’t have to break the bank to get quality dental work done, with superior service and with an excellent doctor. I can truly say she is the best dentist we have ever had.

My wife and I moved here from Chicago where we had the same dentist for 20 years who was great, so we were very concerned to find someone at least half as good. We found Dr. Yasinsky mainly because she had Sat hours which is a must for us. Well after our first visit we knew we had found a great dentist and office mgr in Val. They made us feel right at home, were very interested in our needs, and of course the Doctor’s knowledge along with her personality made it the perfect fit. Val who handles the sck is the best, she really cares about your time and always tries to get you in to see the Doctor as soon as possible. Dr. Yasinsky is even better than the dentist in Chicago, which I thought would never be the case. In three short years not only is she our Dentist, but her and Val are friends. No reason to have any other Dentist in the Bay area when you can have the best!

I’m very glad that I found Valentina. She did excellent work on my root canal and crown.
My previous dentists always seemed in a hurry – and most of the time was spent with the dental hygienist. But Valentina is different. She is very patient, thorough and professional.
Highly recommended.

Let me start by saying that I’ve had some very bad experiences with dentists over the last several years. «Gentle Dental» in San Francisco and Kevin Tom in South San Francisco had me super tentative to go back to a dentist… so much so that it had been years since my last visit.
To be clear, my teeth need a lot of work. I’m a hard working professional in the healthcare industry that takes good care of my teeth, but after poor work and years of no visits, they… well…need work.
During my first visit, Dr. Yasinsky realized that I was nervous about being in a dentist office and even used the word «traumatized» with me to describe what she thought I was feeling. That helped me become at ease.
the first «work» Dr. Yasinsky did was a root canal. While not totally painless, it was nowhere near as bad as I thought it was going to be. She was able to save a tooth that I thought surely needed extraction. Today, I had the crown put in place, and I am very happy with the final results.
I will continually update this review as more work is done…

My wife somehow manages to chip teeth the way most of us bang up our bumpers parallel parking on hills in San Francisco.
I mean, I’m not calling her uncoordinated (I know you’re reading this honey), I would never say something like that about my wife in a public forum! I’m just saying that if a moving object gets by her usual defenses it’s probably going to aim directly for the weakest part of the nearest tooth and crack it. I don’t know how or why this is, it’s one of the great mysteries of the universe. I just know that it «is».
(You are very coordinated you have very pretty teeth. I’m sorry for making a little sport of you on Unilocal in exchange for a few laughs. Love you!)
I also know who fixes these oral fender benders: Geary Dental.
Dr. Yasinsky has been patching and fixing up my wife’s teeth since long before N. and I dating was something I’d imagined I’d be lucky enough to do – and I was none the wiser. She has nicer teeth than me! So what if they’re bionic, they look great.
Anyway.
For all of the pomp I’m giving the review, I’m most grateful to Geary Dental for always giving us a fair shake on the bill. I’ve read stories about doctors who have felt like it’s immoral to over-​charge for medical care but I didn’t really know one until recently. I mean, a root canal is still an uncomfortably expensive process for something justly regarded as torture in most parts of the civilized world, but Dr. Yasinsky somehow made it happen for about 30% less than I expected. Awesome. Those tooth-​chips come in at a similarly recession-​discounted price and the quality is top notch.
If you’re looking for high quality work at a fair price with cool accents (pretend you are a spy!), stop in to Geary Dental — just don’t judge the book by its cover. The building doesn’t look like «all that». It’s what’s inside that counts (delicious, fairly priced, high quality dental work; in case you missed the introduction).
The dentisting (I just made that word up) that goes on under the hood around here is undeniably excellent. Five star recommendation signed & stamped.
