Painless dentistry. I had a tooth extracted, no pain and fast recovery. You should check them out.

All I wanted was a cleaning at the end of the year. I guess I do not get what I want.

Doctor was great! Offices were clean, and basically what you’d expect of a dentist office. The one aspect that stood out was how friendly the staff was. I really appreciated it.

May 22, 2023Landon S.Verified patient

I had to make an emergency appointment due to traveling. He was not my normal dentist - I live in a different state! I was able to get right in. The staff and dentist were very accommodating. They listened to my concerns and were very responsive. The doctor explained everything to me directly - I wish I lived closer to him!

I had some discomfort and was hoping to get an appointment asap. I found Dr. Karimi on zocdoc and was able to get an appointment within the hour! His office staff was amazing !! He was super thorough and I loved the way he took the time to explain everything and went into detail while looking at the xrays and teeth pics! Super excited for my future appointments.

May 18, 2023Felicia G.Verified patient

He was very informative about the work I. Needed and also other things I was concerned about, he asked me if there were any other questions, he also spoke with my husband on the phone to answer his questions. Great office! Receptionist was great and so was the dentist assistant, she made me laugh and feel very comfortable. It definitely gave a family office vibe. I loved that.

Everything was great and I'd recommend, only issue was the x-ray machine was old and the technician had to keep trying to set it over and over again but it seemed a bit worn out so it didn't stay where she set it. Upgrade the x-ray machines and 5 out 5 for me. Regardless would still recommend as everyone was nice and not pushy, didn't try to upsell me on deep cleanings or anything like that.
