“Highly recommend! Friendly staff, clean office, and we were able to get in right way. I was concerned about not knowing the LA area and traffic, but it wasn’t bad at all. Just off 405 fwy, and we parked at the shopping mall next door (can get retail to validate 2 hours). Also plenty of metered parking, and was so easy to find! They worked with our insurance and pleasantly with our budget, no pressure. Dr. Sakai listened to our concerns, and she is a great communicator, gave us options and we left satisfied with the work done, will be going back soon!”

“The office was really clean and the staff were all very attentive. Any time a new patient came in, they were greeted by name so it’s obvious that they really take the time to know their patients. I felt really comfortable and the doctor was really informative about the treatment that I needed. Also felt that their prices were super reasonable and they offer various payment plans so that you can choose which ones works best for you. Definitely would recommend”
