Even after calling me to confirm my appointment, staff never officially booked my appointment. I showed up just for them to tell me I was never scheduled.

August 29, 2024Ryan L.Verified patient
I had not been to the dentist in awhile and was really nervous, but the staff made me feel very comfortable. Walked me through my treatment plan, and worked with my special situation that I am in. They went over some simple steps to help, and all with an "I can help you" attitude. Even the Dr spent time with getting to know my situation and made sure I knew every step. I would highly recommend this office!

I had an amazing experience at the dental clinic, thanks to Dr. Dangol and her team. From the warm welcome to the exceptional care, every aspect was top-notch. Dr. Dangol was professional, caring, and meticulous during my routine cleaning, making me feel comfortable throughout. The clinic’s environment was clean and modern, adding to a seamless experience. I highly recommend Dr. Dangol for anyone seeking quality dental care. Her expertise and the team’s kindness truly stand out.

Went here to avoid a commuted to downtown SF where my former dentist's office is. There is a parking lot and the staff is very friendly and professional. Masks are required when you aren't being worked on. Your temperature is taken upon entry.
It felt as if they took 50 Xrays. *seriously it may have been 20 or more I think I was used to the full mouth scan at my previous dentist, but I am told that is not a yearly thing. It's been a bit since I saw a dentist thanks to the lockdown, so this was ok for me.
They have some cool gadgets that make teeth cleaning a breeze. There's a live screen of the Monterey Bay aquarium to keep your mind off of the work being done. If you are getting additional work (other than the basic cleaning) you can watch Netflix. Appointments are spaced. I think there are 2 patients in the office at a time (different rooms). Generally only 1 dentist/hygienist/ or assistant in at a time or they are 6 feet apart and masked. In other words every thing you need to feel safe about returning to a dentist when a virus is raging out there. I did arrive just as another patient was exiting, but other than that I didn't see anyone but employees.

The absolute best cleaning I have ever had. The Doc explained my treatments options thoroughly. I came in with anxiety and left her office with optimism. Thanks!

November 2, 2016Sue Ann T.Verified patient
Irena is by far the best dentist I have ever been to, she is so sweet, professional and caring! Not to mention everyone in the office is amazing and always so accommodating to any of my needs. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone, I love her!

I am thrilled with my decision to leave my old dentist and go to Vaksman Dental. They have exceeded my expectations in every way!
July 8, 2016Don L.Verified patient
I have a lot of anxiety due to bad past dental experiences, but the doctor was patient and informative. She took the time to explain everything to me and was gentle ans responsive. Also - it may seem like a small thing, but being able to select a program from Netflix to watch with headphones during the procedure helped so much! Will definitely return and recommend.
May 25, 2016Elizabeth G.Verified patient
