Dr Najafi was so attentive and very thorough!
I have never had such a detailed and great dental cleaning! She paid attention to my concerns, was very educational, and was clearly very educated in her field.
I’m so glad to have found such a great dentist in my area !
August 22, 2025Jennifer H.Verified patient
I wish I visit Dr. Ehsan sooner. I signed up for an appointment when my toothache is getting bad. Dr. Ehsan was super friendly and welcoming, explained my teeth situation, and assured me on the procedure thoroughly, what is gonna happen, how I may feel, etc. Throughout the procedure he always made sure I’m doing okay and not feeling any pain. I’m already feeling a lot better the day after. Dr. Ehsan is the kind of doctor everyone wished they had when they were a kid.

They texted me to verify the Zocdoc appt. I was running fifteen minutes late cause my new boss wouldn’t let me out of a meeting. They called me and checked to see if there were patients after me, and still let me come in. Parking wasn’t hard. Their office is right next to the elevator on the second floor. Doctor wad nice. My teeth hadn’t been cleaned in a year since I had been laid off. I had two cavities that they scheduled me to fill three days later which was convenient for me. They also booked my next cleaning for six months. Overall positive and so far I’m planning on sticking with them.

I'm so glad I found this office! I have a genuine hatred of dentists, and a usual high sense of anxiety when I need to go in. Sometimes, I feel like they tell you that you need more treatment then you actually do. Today I learned I was being scammed by my previous dentist. This office took my concerns seriously, while also being able to show me "proof" of what was actually going on in my mouth. Though there were areas of concern that they told me to keep an eye on, they did not try to diagnose me with any unnecessary treatments. I truly feel like I have finally found the perfect fit for me with this office! Thank you so much!!!

I am completely thrilled with the ease of booking my appointment. The staff was extremely friendly,knowledgeable and efficient. Dr Najafi made me feel very comfortable and walked me through the things that needed to be done. She nor the staff oversold services or made me feel pressured to do anything. I am more than satisfied and will be referring everyone I know to her for dental services.

Best dentist I've been to. Hands down. She is professional and personable to put you at ease. I had not been to the dentist in years before my husband and I started going regularly to Dr. Najafi. Our children go to her also and they love her!

Couldn't of asked for a better experience. Dr. Najafi is a great dentist who is very thorough and explains everything in great detail. Someone you can trust to tell you what is best for you and not her wallet, which I think is hard to come by these days with a dentist.
