- 5 out of 5 stars. “I cannot say enough wonderful things about Woodland Hills Family Dentistry. From the moment you walk in, the entire team delivers a level of professionalism, warmth, and clinical excellence that is truly exceptional.Alex, my hygienist, is absolutely phenomenal. Their meticulous attention to detail during my prophylaxis and periodontal maintenance appointments is unmatched. Alex is incredibly gentle yet thorough, constantly checking in to ensure my comfort while providing the most comprehensive cleaning I’ve ever had. My teeth have never felt so polished, plaque-free, and healthy. You can tell Alex is deeply knowledgeable about oral health and genuinely passionate about patient care.Dawn, the office manager, keeps everything running seamlessly. Scheduling, insurance coordination, and patient communication are handled with efficiency and kindness that make every visit stress-free. She creates such a welcoming atmosphere and treats every patient like family.Atifa, the treatment coordinator, is equally amazing. She took the time to clearly explain my treatment plan, radiographs, and financial options with patience and compassion. Dental care can sometimes feel overwhelming, but Atifa made the entire process easy to understand and completely reassuring.The entire practice exemplifies excellence in modern dentistry — combining advanced clinical care with true compassion and professionalism. And as an added bonus, the beautiful new office remodel is absolutely stunning. The updated space is modern, immaculate, and incredibly calming, making every appointment feel like a luxury experience.Highly, highly recommend Woodland Hills Family Dentistry!” — Shirley Shapiro
- 5 out of 5 stars. “I had a wonderful experience. I needed my wisdom extracted in an emergency and had already waited over the weekend to finally get to a dentist. This office was the 3rd one I had to call because all the other place’s “Emergency Services” was not too much of an emergency to them because the soonest those places could see me was in the middle of April.So when I called here at tWoodland Hills office, it sounded like I was gonna have to wait just as long because of the surgeon’s schedule.I was so defeated at this point cuz no one could do same day wisdom tooth extraction and I was in terrible pain. They handed the phone over to Miss Dawn, and I let her know my situation, and how many days I’ve already waited, in pain, and how I could not wait any longer and needed something in the next one or two days max.She totally understood my pain and where I was coming from and was able to have me come in for same day consultation, and made the whole process such a breeze! Very quick! And they were able to refer me to their Ortho surgeon down the street that they work with for a next day wisdom tooth extraction. Thank you so much for your help! This will be my new regular dentist! Everyone was so sweet in helping me. Small little office but it is really nice and professional looking. Thank you Dawn and your whole team!” — Jessika Olivia
- 5 out of 5 stars. “Today was my first visit to this office and in less than 30 minutes I had already had an amazing experience with them. I had horrible tooth/jaw pain that took up the entire left side of my face last night, to the point where I was looking up emergency and 24 hour dentists (to no avail). My regular dentist is closed today and I knew I couldn't wait until Monday when theu reopened, so I found this dental office that opens at 8 and called at 8:30 to see if I could come in. As soon as my call was answered and I explained the pain I was having and explained that I had never been with them before, they told me to come in right then and there so they could try and take care of me. I drove over and when I walked into the waiting room (very beautiful/nice office by the way), the office manager Dawn processed my paperwork and I was seen in less than 10 minutes. Every person I came into contact with was genuinely so sweet and nice. They even helped me set up a specialist appointment for today in Westlake Village and gave me a prescription for antibiotics to start helping me with the infection that we found out I had.Before I left, I made the decision to switch over to this dental office, and I'll be back in a few weeks to schedule my first cleaning with them 💛” — Melissa Marie
- 5 out of 5 stars. “I am a 54 years old male, who used to live in Cleveland, OH, Bay Area, CA and now made my permanent move to Woodland Hills, CA. That said, I have seen and have dealt with many dentists in every location that I have lived in. Woodland Hills Dentist office was the first place that I contacted in order to establish a long-term relationship to take care of my 54-year old teeth. My first visit was super pleasant and courteous. Doctors and staff members at the office were super friendly and professional right from the start. I had X-rays taken of my teeth, deep cleaning done, as it was time for it. Then we had scheduled future appointments to get my missing crown replaced and two small cavities filled. I am very tolerable to pain by my nature; however, there was no need to tolerate any pain, as I did not feel any pain at all. Compared to other dental offices that I used to belong to, with full honesty and pleasure, I am giving #A1+ rating to Woodland Hills Family Dentistry. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a professional, honest dentists who really care about their patients and not their bank accounts, like most dentists do. Keep up the great work, Woodland Hills Family Dentistry Staff !!!!” — Igor Shekhtman
- 5 out of 5 stars. “I’ve been coming here for years and my whole family does too, and they are the best dentist ever. Everyone is always so kind and welcoming, and Dawn, Marianna, Dr. Yousefi, and Atifa are all amazing. I love them so much! They make you feel so comfortable the second you walk in. They’re so gentle, patient, and always take the time to explain everything so you never feel nervous or rushed.I used to hate going to the dentist due to bad experiences in the past, but now I actually feel relaxed and safe when I go because of them. They truly care about their patients and it really shows in the way they treat you. You can tell they genuinely love what they do.If you’re looking for a dentist where you’ll feel comfortable, taken care of, and not stressed at all, this is the place. I can’t recommend them enough! 😊” — Jaden
- 5 out of 5 stars. “Just THE BEST! Tl:dr I would drive through LA during rush hour to get to Woodland Hills Family Dentistry !!I am from out of state and have had the same dentist my entire life (30 years). I was VERY scared to see a new dentist. I tried going to a couple of other offices with no luck. I couldn’t even get past the consultation. Fast forward a year, and I needed to see a dentist ASAP. They got me in, took care of me, and they are the most gentle and patient group I have ever seen. If you’re scared of the dentist, come here! They explained every thing to me, and addressed the issue I came in for first, then discussed my other options for preserving my smile. They were Not at all pushy, dismissive, and at No point did any one even attempt to guilt me for having waited so long to come in. I LOVE THIS DENTIST!” — FeeBee
- 5 out of 5 stars. “UPDATE: 3/24I had tooth pain the night before. I called in the morning and they were able to fit me in. I didn’t have my anxiety medication on me since it was a list min appt. Dr.Shant was sooo amazing and patient with me. I had him stop so many times bc my anxiety was through the roof. He never once appeared annoyed. He took his time and made me feel so comfortable. Everyone in the office did. This is why I continue coming here. This office, the dentists, staff everyone is always the best.OLD: the friendliest staff and dentists. They really make you feel comfortable and at ease. I am not the easiest dental patient (lol) but Dr Yousefi is very patient with me. Dawn and the rest of the office staff are absolutely amazing.

- 5 out of 5 stars. “I have been coming to Woodland Hills Family Dentistry for nearly a decade (maybe longer?) and I could not be happier with the team, the doctors, and the quality service they provide. The staff are incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. My teeth cleanings are actually something I look forward to. Plus, the newly renovated office looks amazing. Walking into that pretty space definitely sets the tone. Everything is shiny and clean.I ended up bringing my grandma to them as well, and I’d recommend them to anyone looking for a new Dentist. I would give 6 stars if I could.” — Wesley Lebman
- 5 out of 5 stars. “Words cannot describe how fortunate I am to have called Dawn at Woodland Hills Family Dentistry. I had a severe dental emergency that I was struggling to find help with. I called various other dental offices over the course of two days whilst simultaneously going to the ER and no one came close to giving the amount of help and care that the Dawn and the Team at WHFD provided for me. You can tell that they actually care for their patients and enjoy their job & helping others. I am so grateful for coming across them in my time of need!!! THANK YOU!!!!” — Ben Nagler
- 5 out of 5 stars. “So I applied for dental insurance and the insurance company allocated me a different Dentist from my initial Doctor Whom I have been visiting for 2years now. Because of the great service, kindness and professionalism exhibited in the years I have visited Woodland Hills Family Dentistry, I didn’t mind paying a little more to the insurance company just so I could maintain Doctor Yousefi! This just tells you how great she is and her staff. Their workmanship is something that should never go unnoticed. ❤️❤️❤️” — Kay Sams
- 5 out of 5 stars. “My family and I have been coming to this dentist for over 30 years. I live in a whole different state now and still come back home to go to my dentist at least twice a year. I trust them with my teeth wholeheartedly and I have a beautiful smile to show for it. Never have to worry about dishonest practice, or telling me I need something I don’t, which I know has become common these days. Everyone there is kind, gentle, patient, and Dawn is practically family at this point! Can’t recommend them enough.” — Rachel Neuberg
- 5 out of 5 stars. “I’ve been a patient here at WHFD since 2005 and I am pleased to say it’s been the most pleasant experience one could hope for at a dentist office. I particularly have been impressed with the support staff and their willingness to go the extra mile. In the 15 plus years that I have been coming to WHFD Dawn Gomez has been the one constant that hasn’t changed and on many occasion the sole reason that I’ve returned to the doctors office as she always goes above and beyond to help in any way possible.” — Ralph Taylor
- 5 out of 5 stars. “Absolutely my best dental experience. I have serious anxiety about the dentist (way more than the norm), and they made the process painless and easy. The dentist explained exactly what he was going to do, and just normalized the whole process. The prep conversation put me at ease. During the extraction, he consistently checked in with how I was doing, and everything went smoothly. And the whole team is super friendly and takes the time to explain things clearly. Definitely recommend this place!” — Anthony

She has always made me feel welcomed and has show excellent communication, concern, guidance and help to all my concerns. I recommend and will continue to give my business to this dentistry.” — John

- 5 out of 5 stars. “Both my husband and I have now been to Woodland Hills Family Dentistry - and had a great experience. Friendly staff, clean, professional, knowledgeable and affordable. I've lived in LA for years, and I've never been satisfied with a dentist here (frankly continued to fly home to Oklahoma to use my family dentist for YEARS) and finally feel like I have found a place that feels like a hometown doctor's office... We will continue to use their services.” — Emily Anne Barclay Ford
