Dr Belastagui was amazing. She was informative and explained everything prior to doing it. She was also very gentle, kind and put me right at ease. Im not a big fan of dentists but after seeing Dr Belastagui I would happily see her another time. The office staff are also very efficient and friendly and there was no wait time to be seen. All around great experience and I would recommend her to any of my friends and family. 5/5.

Dr. Velastegui (dentist) is so professional, compassionate, and kind. She takes the time to explain all procedures and tries to get to know each patient. She walks patients through the entire process while she is working on them. I would give more than 5 stars if I could!

I couldn’t be more happy to find this doctor.
Everyone in the office is so friendly and so kind. They are super organized, i never had to wait on their office for my appointment. Everything is sparkling clean.
On the first visit the doctor explained in details every tooth of mine ( from previous work on them to what needs to be done). She patiently answers all my questions. Her work is excellent, i’m very happy how she treated both times I was there. And i loved it when the doctor said that i can call anytime if i have any questions or if something is bothering me.
From my personal experience, I highly recommend DR.Belen Velastegui , she is the best dentist i have ever had.

I have been seeing Dr. Velastegui for a while now, and have the utmost confidence in her expertise. She was recommended to me by two other dental professionals, both for her clinical credentials, as well as her gentle, respectful, and compassionate manner. Her support staff is terrific too--top notch--and I never wait long. I would highly recommend her practice!
