March 30, 2025Josh B.Verified patient
From the moment I walked into the office, I was greeted with exceptional front desk, staff (one gal, even stated that she had worked there for 47 years.). The dentist there was very thorough with his exam and also did an oral cancer screening. Overall, I had a great experience, considering I hate going to the dentist.

Amazing dentist would highly recommend!
July 4, 2023Jessica S.Verified patient
All staff were very kind and communicatable. Dr. Karami listened my explanation carefully and explained diagnosis with Xray and the reason.
December 9, 2022Ryota S.Verified patient
The staff were very pleasant and accommodating upon arrival. My wait time in to be seen by the dentist happened very quickly after my x-rays were done. My overall experience I would rate as a 4.5.
January 11, 2022Alicia R.Verified patient
Dr Karami is a very professional, responsible, and respectable dentist. I felt very comfortable in his office. I highly recommend him.

I was very impressed! Doctor Karami took his time to make sure everything that needs to be done was done.
The dental Assistant Julian was very comforting and knowledgeable. The whole office went above and beyond my expectations.

cool guy
May 15, 2019David K.Verified patient
Possibly like you - I’m terrified of dentists and dentistry. Dr. Karami is quite possibly my most favoured dentist of the past 46 years. He is careful to explain his procedures, his prognoses, and charts a manageable treatment plan. No hard sell, no unnecessary procedures. He is gentle(manly), state-of-the-art, considerate, takes time to know his patients, and was for me: pain and anxiety free. His prices are fair and his work is second-to-none. He was able to save s tooth that was seven plus years overdue and rotten to its core. I consider myself lucky under his guided advice.
May 3, 2019Chris F.Verified patient
Very professional and knowledgable.
April 19, 2019Rosalind L.Verified patient
The entire process was great. From scheduling the appointment, to checking in, x-rays and preliminary exam, and explanation of the treatment plan - everyone was efficient as well as kind.
I was really impressed because I felt like I was being treated as a patient AND a person, not just a chart number.

Replacement crown in 2 appointments. Great job using topical to deaden shot. Almost couldn't feel it. Certainly much better than my memory of fillings from the 1960s ! Today was permanent crown being placed. No need for a shot, almost no pain, just a wee bit when using the air to dry the tooth before applying adhesive. Dr Karami has great hands, he is friendly, knowledgeable, and I trust him completely; you can too !
April 9, 2019Mike W.Verified patient
Very good staff
March 21, 2019Rosalind L.Verified patient
Doctor Karami is always very friendly and professional. I've been a patient for years, and I've consistently received good service without ever having to wait longer than 5 minutes to be seen. His staff is friendly and professional as well. The two times we've had a billing issue with my insurance company, Dr. Karami and his staff have bent over backwards to put me, as the patient, first and I appreciate that very much.
March 13, 2019Cameron S.Verified patient
Absoltuely horrible experience with a very rude front desk lady!
Dr. Karami was extremely friendly. However, the front desk lady with bad cigarette breath and horrible manners made my overall experience extremely uncomfortable.
March 4, 2019Joseph F.Verified patient
I’m not one to say that I “enjoy” visits to the dentist, but I actually enjoy my visits here. Dr. K and the team are always super friendly and accommodating. Thank you for always taking care of me!
February 27, 2019Katarina C.Verified patient
I placed five stars because Karami is a very good Dentist. I came in a little late because they had me waiting anywhere from 15 to 20 mins the appointment prior. I figured I would come in a little later and my wait time be less. OOOO nooooo I was rudely addressed by the old lady at the front desk with the short hair cut by the name of Cindy. So I explained to her why I came in 15 mins late. She continued to be very rude which left a sour taste in my mouth. I needed a letter from the Dr. he stated I should go to the front desk to get it. I stated I didn't want to deal with her after. I really dislike rude people it is really no point of it. You will only have a hard day after it all. At the end of the day I addressed how rude she was and she didin't get it. smh
February 19, 2019Nique W.Verified patient
The wait time was about 15 mins. I would like to been seen within 5 mins of my time scheduled but I am sure things happen. I am blessed to have found him he is wonderful. So hey for his wonderful craft I guess I will wait??.

Dr.Ardavan karami is very carful and professional.He and his staff respect the patients .i am comfortable with them and i didn’t wait for a long time in his office .i appriciate him and his staff????
January 17, 2019Azam M.Verified patient
Today was my first appointment and I’d have to say he might be the best dentist I’ve seen. He was very nice and made me feel comfortable. I Loved how thorough he was with my cleaning. I haven’t seen a dentist in three years... he made sure to take great care of me even though I was feeling a lot of sensitivity. What I loved most about the visit was how well he explained my X-rays to me and picture taken. I’ve never had a dentist do that with me. I fully understand what was causing my issues and what my treatment will be. The dental assistant was also amazing and so sweet to me! Excited to have my dental work done here!
January 10, 2019Rosalia R.Verified patient
Doctor was giving me options on treatment.
Talked me through it and was an intelligent to ask of my choice.
Working together never been easier.
January 8, 2019Yuliya M.Verified patient
I always have a great experience when I see Dr. Karami and the staff at Highline Dental.
Had a little trouble with the water/suction machine a couple of times so it is a good thing I can tread water! HAHA! It is all good with this practice!! I love them!
December 6, 2018Leigh C.Verified patient
Everyone was very friendly, helpful, and professional. I hadn't been to a dentist in quite some time, so my anxiety was soaring. I quickly calmed down though, as they all made me feel completely comfortable and cared for.
November 20, 2018Kyle R.Verified patient
Quick and easy. Removed my temporary crown to get my permanent crown cemented in. This was my second crown in a month. Dr. Karami (and his technicians) always have excellent chairside manner. Looking forward to great dental care in the years to come.
October 16, 2018Jamie R.Verified patient
Dr. Karami and his dental technician (Julian) make a great team. They are patient-focused (and gentle) and are willing to explain their progress while it is happening. There was no wasted time either in the office lobby or in the dental chair. I feel as if I am in capable hands with Dr. K and Julian.
